Mall:Documentation subpage

  • This template can be used to display a status indicator along the top of your user page and/or user talk page.
  • It accepts five parameters that should be placed in Special:MyPage/Status: online, busy, around, offline, sleep
  • It is compatible with the Qui status system developed by TheDJ
  • You can also import (or copy) User:Xenocidic/statusChanger2.js (or just manually update your status)
  • Will only work in the user/user talk namespaces.


By default, the output will be as follows
  • Status: Patrolling - patrol
  • Status: Online - online
  • Status: Busy - busy
  • Status: Around - around
  • Status: Custom - custom. (if sleep= is defined)
  • Status: Offline – offline
  • Status: Sleeping – sleep
  • Status: Unknown – if your status is not being reported correctly or your status page is empty


The first parameter is optional and may be used to point to a status page other than Special:MyPage/Status


Can also accept named parameters
  • link: can be used to link the text to a page which explains the status terms (e.g. en:User talk:Xenocidic/Status)
  • img_link: can be used to link the status image (e.g. en:User talk:Xenocidic/Status)
  • offset: can be used to offset the status display further to the left
  • offsettop: can be used to offset further down
  • sleep: redefine the "sleep" parameter to anything you like
  • blink: will prevent flashing in "offline" and "sleep" status when set to any value (such as "no")
  • nocat: to remove a user from the category when they are online (see below)


Example usage
  • {{Statustop|offset=30}}
    the offset parameter is in px units
  • {{Statustop|link=User talk:Xenocidic/Status|offset=500}}
    the default is to leave the text and image unlinked
  • {{Statustop|link=User talk:Xenocidic/Status|img_link=Template:Statustop|offset=10}}
    the img_link parameter accepts both wikipages and external URLs
  • {{Statustop|User:SomeOtherUser/Status}}
    could be used on a bot page to display the bot-op's status.
  • {{Statustop|sleep=IRC}} - for setting the custom parameter
