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

To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

• {{ Current British earls | state = collapsed }} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.
• {{ Current British earls | state = expanded }} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.

READ THIS BEFORE UPDATING: Please make sure the current holder of the title is on box.

AFTER UPDATING: Make sure that when the new holder of the title has this box and the previous holder does not have this box on their article please.
