This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (anavbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.

{{Wikipedia technical help|state=collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.{{Wikipedia technical help|state=expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.This is a navbox of the main technical help pages on English Wikipedia.
