{{Documentation|content=<br />
{{ombox|text=When archiving an extension, please also file a [[phab:project/profile/2829/|archive extension or skin]] task on Phabricator so all instances relating to the extension can be cleaned up.}}<br />
==Purpose==<br />
For archiving extensions and skins in a way that removes them from standard view, but is still accessible in revisions history.<br />
This allows the wiki to both respect the original contributor by not completely removing their work, while reducing the amount of content that may inadvertently cause confusion or problems for sysadmins and developers.<br />
Also add the page to {{ll|Category:Archived extensions}} or {{ll|Category:Archived skins}}.<br />
<br />
