Archy McArchface (['ɑɹ.kij mɪk.'ɑɹk.feɪs]) is a script that allows a user to select and archive multiple discussions to another page. Archy McArchface was created to better enable experienced editors to clear out old discussions themselves, without having to rely on OneClickArchiver, which functions much more awkwardly when used to archive more than one discussion on a given talk page. Every discussion page is already set up to use Archy McArchface.

In a nutshell: The script will add an "øca" (or "more", for you Vector users) tab to the top of the page near the "new section" button, similarly to how Twinkle does. Click this. Then each section will have [archive] next to its heading. Click [archive] for the sections that you want to select. Then click the large button at the bottom of the screen when you are done.

To install this script: Copy the line below, then [[click here]], paste the line, and hit Save page.

Notes

• Take care when archiving threads that have section breaks within them and {{archive top}} and {{archive bottom}}.
