Steel1943 moved page Template:User wikipedia/Retired Administrator/doc to Template:User Wikipedia/Retired Administrator/doc: Mass move all subpages of Template:User wikipedia to comply with the result of Template talk:User Wikipedia#Requested move 27 June 2022 and to match their parent page

New page

{{Documentation subpage}}
{{notice|Only [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats|bureaucrats]] can turn users into [[WP:Administrators|administrators]]; therefore, adding this userbox does '''not''' add an administrator.}}

This userbox is used by retired Wikipedia administrators to show that at one time they wielded the mop but voluntarily relinquished their bit. The user's indicated [[Help:Magic words#gender|gender]] identity in their preferences will be used to display either 'emeritus' or 'emerita'.

The intent is for this userbox to be used by former admins who resigned in good standing.

== Parameters ==
The following parameters can be used to better personalize the userbox:

=== Data Parameters ===
*{{para|1}} — optional unnamed parameter; The site on which the user was an administrator
*{{para|lang_code}} — language code to work alongside {{param|1}}; See [[Help:Interwiki linking]] to select the correct {{param|lang_code}}
*{{para|othertext}} — appends text immediately after 'administrator emeritus/emerita' so the user can personalize the userbox, including any additional permissions
*{{para|RFA|''wikilink''}} — optional parameter to link to the user's RFA
*{{para|nocat|yes}} — suppresses adding user to [[:Category:Retired Wikipedia administrators]]

=== Style Parameters ===
{{See also|Template:Userbox}}
*{{para|id}} — replace the entirety of the left box
**{{para|image}} — replace the image in the left box; do not enter the 'File:' prefix
**{{para|img-size}} — resize the image in the left box; default is 45px
*{{para|info-s}} — text size in the information box
