==Usage instructions==
Use a single block of succession boxes per article. Begin each succession box block with <nowiki>{{start box}}</nowiki> and end it with <nowiki>{{end box}}</nowiki>. In between, you may place as many instances of <nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki> as is necessary. Use the following syntax:

<nowiki>{{succession box|before=PREDECESSOR|title=TITLE|after=SUCCESSOR}}</nowiki>, replacing "PREDECESSOR", "TITLE" and "SUCCESSOR" as appropriate. For example, this is [[Lee Adama]]'s succession box, which includes two non-contiguous stints as ''Galactica'''s CAG, and two subsequent positions.

{{end box}}</nowiki></pre>

The <nowiki>{{spoiltext}}</nowiki> template will not work within succession boxes. Instead, three other templates are available which may be used in place of <nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki>. These are:

*<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler)}}</nowiki> hides the entire section behind a spoiler tag.
*<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler-bef)}}</nowiki> hides the predecessor.
*<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler-aft)}}</nowiki> hides the successor.

The syntax for these is identical to the standard <nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki> template.</noinclude>

-Use a single block of succession boxes per article. Begin each succession box block with {{tl|start box}} and end it with {{tl|end box}}. In between, you may place as many instances of <code><nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki></code> as is necessary. {{tl|start box}} and {{tl|end box}} are only ''needed'' once. See [[#Example|example]] below.
