If all the archives of a talk page are numbered (/Archive 1, /Archive 2 etc.), you can use the auto parameter to display links to them all automatically. Choosing the yes option will list the archives with numbers only:

Wikitext Appearance 
{{archive box|auto=yes|
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Archive 3|December 2005 - January 2006]] and
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Deletion discussion|Deletion discussion]]}}

The list will update itself when new archives are added. If there are also named archives, you can add links to these as well. See the additional links shown in the archive box below:




Alternatively, setting the auto parameter to "long" will give a prose version; all other parameter values will trigger the numerical format above, so if you want longer and more visible links, try:

Wikitext Appearance 
{{archive box|auto=long|
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Archive 3|December 2005 - January 2006]] and
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Deletion discussion|Deletion discussion]]}}
