{{Shortcut|WP:BREAKENF}}
'''WikiBreak Enforcer''' is a [[Scripting language|script]] that prevents a user from [[Help:Logging_in|logging in]] before a certain date, to help enforce a [[Wikipedia:Wikibreak|wikibreak]]. If the user logs in, they are automatically logged back out, but can still view or edit from the [[Wikipedia:Mobile|mobile interface]], or as a [[Wikipedia:Anonymous user|logged out user]] through their [[IP address]].

== How to Use ==
{{warning|'''Warning!''' Be careful not to make a mistake, or you may not be able to get back in at the end of your break. In cases of errors, an [[WP:INTADMIN|interface admin]] can remove the script from your user JavaScript page for you.}}
<ol>
<li>Copy the code under [[#Script|Script]] below between <code>/*** BEGIN WIKIBREAK ENFORCER ***/</code> and <code>/*** END WIKIBREAK ENFORCER ***/</code>.</li>
<li>Paste the code on your [[Special:Mypage/common.js|user JavaScript page]], and then change the lines starting with <code>var date</code> and <code>var time</code> to reflect the time you want your break to end (local time). The <code>var date</code> line defines the date your break will end, while the <code>var time</code> defines the time on that day that your break will end. For example, for a break ending at 8:22 pm on 6 February 2019, one would enter the settings:
<syntaxhighlight lang=javascript>
var date = { year: 2019, month: 2, day: 6 };
var time = { hours: 20, minutes: 22, seconds: 0 };
</syntaxhighlight></li>
<li>Save the edited user JavaScript page.
:{{takenote}} Previewing your edit will log you out, but will not implement the enforcer.</li>
<li>[[Wikipedia:Purge|Purge]] the page. If successful, you will be logged out.</li>
<li>That's it: enjoy your wikibreak! 🙂</li>
</ol>
