විකිපීඩියා වෙතින්

A wikibreak, wikiholiday, wikivacation or leave of wiki-absence is a period when even a wikiholic must be parted from Wikipedia—though, presumably only temporarily.

The pain involved varies from Wikipedian to Wikipedian. Some find it easy to endure, whereas others find the separation agonizing. Often the latter find themselves grasping at any opportunity to go online "just to check what's happening".

The degree of coercion also varies. Some remarkable individuals are actually capable of taking a voluntary wikiholiday: they are to be admired for their strength of character. Some people have to enforce their departure for their own good. Others still are forced into it through circumstances beyond their control: it is often at such times that wikiholics discover their condition.

Generic templates[සංස්කරණය]

The wikibreak template[සංස්කරණය]

When taking a wikibreak, it is a good idea to inform your wikifriends that you are not active and indicate when you might be back. You can use the wikibreak template for this purpose. Let's say Example wants to go on wikibreak until Christmas. He would then place this text on the top of his user and/or talk pages:

{{wikibreak|[[User:Example|Example]]| on December 25}}

He would get this:

For a longer break, he could also use {{Long Wikibreak}}, writing

{{Long Wikibreak|[[User:Example|Example]]| next summer, God willing and the creek don't rise.}}

which renders thus: සැකිල්ල:Long Wikibreak

The other wikibreak template[සංස්කරණය]

When taking a wikibreak, it is a good idea to inform your wikifriends that you are not active and indicate when you might be back. However, not all wikipedians have the self-discipline to keep away for various reasons, so this template was created for those who feel like taking a wikibreak, but at the same time will return to make small edits every once in a while. Let's say Example wants to go on wikibreak until Christmas. He would then place this text on the top of his user and/or talk pages:

{{Attempting wikibreak|[[User:Example|Example]]| on December 25|I}}

He would get this: සැකිල්ල:Attempting wikibreak

විශේෂ අවස්ථා සඳහා සැකිලි[සංස්කරණය]

කාර්යබහුල[සංස්කරණය]

The Busy Template

An alternative for those weaning themselves more slowly from Wikipedia is the 'Busy' template, which is designed for those who are being overtaken by "real" life (if you have one) work. Wikipediholics can use this template to assuage the guilt associated with long breaks from the Wiki. If Example were using this template, he would place the following text at the top of his user page:

{{busy|[[User:Example|Example]]}}

or

{{busy|~~~}}

and they will get this:

The Off and On WikiBreak Template

There are times when one is having trouble being able to consistently make contributions for some reason. If you are inconsistently able to make edits, add

{{Off and On WikiBreak}} 

to your userpage, which will bring this about: සැකිල්ල:Off and On WikiBreak

අධ්‍යාපනය[සංස්කරණය]

The School template

When school beckons, or any other school for that matter, use

{{Attempting school wikibreak}} 

to get: සැකිල්ල:Attempting school wikibreak

The Busy on Weekdays because of School Template School can make weekday activity impossible, or, at the very least, quite difficult. To let people know that your activity on weekdays may be somewhat restricted, add

{{Busyweekdays}} 

to your userpage, which will bring this about:


The Education template

A template for those students smart enough to make studying a priority. Type

{{Education wikibreak}} 

and you'll see: සැකිල්ල:Education wikibreak

Also, you can use

{{Education wikibreak|returndate=''date''}} 

to specify the date that your school finishes. To specify that your institution is a college or university, use

{{Education wikibreak|returndate=''date''|institution=''whatever your institution is''}} 

(either the type of institution or the actual name), which looks like this:

සැකිල්ල:Education wikibreak

The Exams template Another template for those who have exams coming up soon, to add it just add the following text at the top of your user page:

{{exams}}

and you will get this:

Alternatively, you can use

{{exams|date}} 

to specify the date that your exams finish. That will yield:

The Semi-wikibreak Exams Template

සැකිල්ල:Semi-Exams

{{Semi-Exams}}

සෞඛ්‍යය[සංස්කරණය]

For those of us who are sick or ill and would thus be partially inactive, Wikipedians can use this template to indicate this.

{{user health inactive}}

and the user will see this: සැකිල්ල:User health inactive


For those of us who are struggling with mental illness or psychological problems and would thus be partially inactive, Wikipedians can use this template to indicate this.

{{User warning-mentalhealth}}

and the user will see this: සැකිල්ල:User warning-mentalhealth

Note: DO NOT put this on another person's userpage without their consent, as this is potentially libelous (not to mention cruel).

අනෙක්[සංස්කරණය]

The Discouraged user template

For those users who have been disheartened by the wikiprocess through failure, edit wars, bullying, and other acts of not assuming good faith towards the user. They may also be suffering from a sense of wikifailure. Wikipedians displaying this template may periodically check their watchlist, but will not engage in editing. Wikipedians will typically return to their regular contributing activity once their faith in the wikicommunity has been restored or their existential wikistress has been resolved.

{{Discouraged}}


The Got Grounded Template

Semi-wikibreak[සංස්කරණය]

A semi-wikibreak is a Wikibreak taken by Wikipedians who are not fully on a wikibreak, but are not fully editing. There are many possible reasons for a semi-wikibreak; including, for example:

  • busy at work or school
  • going on vacation
  • new puppy isn't housebroken yet
  • toilet got backed up
  • slow internet connection
  • boyfriend or girlfriend needs more attention
  • Super Bowl season
  • AL/NL Pennant Race
  • Stanley Cup Finals
  • Chase For The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race
  • March Madness
  • NBA Playoffs
  • FIFA World Cup
  • sharing computer with others
  • ran out of coffee
  • computer is dead.

{{Template:Planretire}} or {{Template:Retireplan}} produces

සැකිල්ල:Planretire

Usage:

{{Planretire}} or {{Retireplan}}

Retirement template[සංස්කරණය]

We hope this never happens, but sometimes good things must come to an end. If you are retiring from Wikipedia you can use the Retirement template:

{{retirement|[[User:Example|Example]]}}

and it will produce: සැකිල්ල:Retirement

If you simply say:

{{retirement}}

it will automatically say your user name සැකිල්ල:Retirement In this case, it takes the name of this page which is Wikibreak.

Alternately, if you say:

{{User EX-WP}}

This box will be produced: සැකිල්ල:User EX-WP

For a simpler message:

{{retired}}

and it will define:


විශ්‍රාම ගෙන ඇත
මෙම පරිශීලකයා විකීපීඩියාවෙහි තව දුරටත් ක්‍රියාකාරී නොවේ .

Back from long wikibreak[සංස්කරණය]

When you return:

{{Back from long wikibreak}}

සැකිල්ල:Back from long wikibreak
