These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

# Archive a stream
|
|
|
|
{!admin-only.md!}
|
|
|
|
Archiving a stream will immediately unsubscribe all users from the stream,
|
|
remove the stream from search and other typeaheads, and remove the stream's
|
|
messages from **All messages**.
|
|
|
|
Archiving a stream does not delete a stream's messages. Users will still be
|
|
able to find any given message by searching for it. However, links to
|
|
messages and topics in the stream may or may not continue to work.
|
|
|
|
In most cases, we recommend [renaming streams](/help/rename-a-stream) rather
|
|
than archiving them.
|
|
|
|

Archiving a stream is currently irreversible, but we plan to add support
|
|
for unarchiving streams in the future.
