This template creates a custom userbox that indicates that you have retired in a specific nation, state, province, territory, district, city or town.

This template does not imply retirement from the Wikipedia project.

Please be careful to not dox yourself using this template.

To use this userbox template, place the following line of Wikitext on your user page:

{{User retired|location|region=|color=|style=|alt=|art=|wrap=|nocat=}}

where:

  • location is an optional location name.
  • region= an optional region name or ISO 3166 code. (default = location)
See Category:Multiuse regional user templates for currently available region names and codes.
  • color= an optional background color.
  • style= an optional style.
    • style=short creates a standard format. (default for names of 18 or fewer characters.)
    • style=long creates a more elaborate but smaller format if available. (default for names of more than 18 characters)
  • alt= an optional alternate location name.
  • art= an optional article to precede the location name.
  • wrap=wrap allows a multi-word location name to break between lines (default= null )
  • nocat= an optional category blocking parameter:
    • nocat=no  includes your user page in [[Category:Wikipedians in region]] (default)
    • nocat=yes makes no category declaration.

This template adds your user page to the approriate regional location category. A nocat=true parameter may be used to inhibit category declaration.
