Usage

The syntax for this template is simple: ((semi-retired)) if you want it to display the above, or ((semi-retired|date=date (any format is acceptable))) if you want it to display a date along with the above. You can also provide an explanation or note ((semi-retired|explanation (be mindful of using certain restricted characters))) if you like.

Semi-retiring implies that you will be editing occasionally. If there is a chance that you might eventually return to regular editing, then it is preferable to announce a ((Wikibreak)).

Editors should promptly remove this template from their user pages if they resume editing for any reason. If not editing anymore, use ((retired)) in preference.

This template should be placed on a user page only by the concerned user, or at their request.
