User categories

I have removed all of the user categories associated with this template, as they effectively constitute detailed forms of the various Wikipedians by activity status categories, including Category:Wikipedians taking a Wikibreak, which were deleted via a series of CFD discussions. These discussions are, for the most part, recorded at Wikipedia:User categories for discussion/Archive/October 2007. – Black Falcon (Talk) 07:53, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Broken?

Whenever I change the status, it still gives the standard message "19maxx uses the Wikibreak Switch template, and plans to notify anybody at an instant if 19maxx decides to take a wikibreak." Is it broken? 19maxx (talk) 20:25, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

User inactive travel

Does anyone fancy trying to incorporate the functionality of {{User inactive travel}} here? I could have a bit of a try (I've just made some minor amendments to that one) but can't really afford the time to experiment with it ATM. Cheers. -- Trevj (talk) 15:18, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Wording for OFF

Could we consider rewording {{WikibreakSwitch/DefaultSwitchTable}} to the following?

Wikibreak switch uses the Wikibreak Switch template, and plans to notify anybody at an instant if a wikibreak is taken.

This preserves gender anonymity (which would seem to be in line with the Privacy policy) but IMO is slightly easier reading than including one's username twice. As an enhancement, I guess his/her could be included if disclosed in a user's profile. --Trevj (talk) 14:42, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Done. SilkTork ✔Tea time 16:29, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

Broken

@A 10 fireplane: Do you mean this edit? The problem is that |<SCHOOL> is not a valid parameter; you should try |SCHOOL, |School or |school instead. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:49, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
@Redrose64: awesome that worked, thank you so much, hope to see you again when I return. Until then happy editing A 10 fireplane (talk) 21:49, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
