Template documentation

Usage

The syntax for this template is simple: {{retired}} if you want it to display the above, or {{retired|date=date (any format is acceptable)}} if you want it to display a date along with the above.

Retiring implies that you will not resume editing at any later date. If there is any significant chance that you might eventually return, then it is preferable to announce an indefinite {{Wikibreak}}.

Editors should promptly remove this template from their user pages if they resume editing for any reason. If still editing on rare occasions, use {{semi-retired}} in preference.

This template should be placed on a userpage only by the concerned user, or by his or her request.

Example

{{retired|date=December 2009}}

{{retired|border=dashed 3px red|bgcolor=orange|fgcolor=blue|date=NOW!!!}}
