Usage
This userbox may be used by members of the
Fifteen Year Society of Wikipedians that have been editing for fifteen years or more to indicate their membership if they so wish. This
userbox will automatically add your userpage to
category
Members of the Fifteen Year Society of Wikipedia editors.
You can disable automatic categorization
using |nocat=true.
Parameters
If no parameters are given, the userbox displays as above. Optionally, the following parameters may be supplied to modify the display of the userbox.
Unnamed parameter
If the first parameter is unnamed, it will specify free text to append to the end of the default text. No space will appear between the two unless given at the beginning of the supplied text.
{{User Fifteen Year Society| (since 2005)}} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years (since 2005). |
{{User Fifteen Year Society|—since July 28, 2005}} (note the lack of a space after "|" here) renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years—since July 28, 2005. |
year, month, and day
If desired, the named parameters year, month, and day can be given as the date the user first started editing Wikipedia, to cause the userbox to calculate the amount of time that has elapsed since then automatically.
{{User Fifteen Year Society|year=2005|month=1|day=1}} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years (19 years, 5 months, and 13 days). |
format
By default, the duration is output as years, months, and days, but format=ym can be specified to only show years and months, or format=y can be used to display only the years.
{{User Fifteen Year Society|year=2004|month=12|day=31|format=ym}} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years (19 years, 5 months). |
{{User Fifteen Year Society|year=2005|month=7|day=28|format=y}} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years (18+). |
period
By default, the sentence in the userbox will end with a period (full stop). This can be suppressed by setting period to a blank value.
{{User Fifteen Year Society|year=2006|month=1|day=31|period=}} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years (18 years, 4 months, and 14 days). |
period can be set to a non-blank value to provide a substitute for the usual ".", but note that due to template limitations (and unlike the unnamed parameter), if the value contains leading (or trailing) spaces, they need to be specified as
HTML character references, e.g. or  .
sc
Specifying sc=n or sc=no will suppress the
serial comma used before the "and" in ymd format.
{{User Fifteen Year Society|year=2005|month=1|day=1|sc=n}} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years (19 years, 5 months and 13 days). |
whitespace
By default, one space will appear between the userbox's default text and the calculated duration. whitespace=<br> can be used to output a line break before the duration instead.
{{User Fifteen Year Society|year=2005|month=1|day=1|whitespace=<br />}} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than
15 years (19 years, 5 months, and 13 days). |
Note that due to template limitations (and unlike the unnamed parameter), if the value of whitespace contains leading or trailing spaces, they need to be specified as
HTML character references, e.g. or  .
{{User Fifteen Year Society|year=2005|month=1|day=1|period=|whitespace=<br /> }} renders as:
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than
15 years (19 years, 5 months, and 13 days) |
nocat
If you need to avoid categorization where the template is used, set nocat=true.
alticon
To use the alternate icon, where the letters don't overlap the wreath, set alticon=true.
{{User Fifteen Year Society|alticon=true}} renders as:
 | This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years. |
| This user has been editing Wikipedia for more than 15 years. |
