OneClickArchiver allows you to instantly archive a single discussion with a click, via an "archive" link that displays for each section on discussion pages.

Noticeboards and other high-traffic discussion pages, normally archived automatically by bots, have gotten long and less manageable recently due to bot instability. OneClickArchiver was created to better enable experienced editors to clear out old discussions themselves, without having to rely on bots. Any discussion page can be set up to use OneClickArchiver.

Public noticeboards should only be archived by experienced editors who understand when archiving is or is not appropriate. Respect a public page's posted archiving policy regarding how long its discussions must be inactive before they are archived.
If you do not know how to do this, do not attempt to archive the page.
