I don't like the picture --GeorgeMoney^{Talk  Contribs} 07:26, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Propose a better one. We can create another template and give ourselves the choice of picture. NoSeptember ^talk 07:57, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You can use a parameter now to define it. //Ae:æ 16:27, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think we could get a graphics designer to make an image like "A scene of a family at home next to the fireplace at Christmas with the wikipedia logo inplace of the Christmas tree" or something like that? --GeorgeMoney^{Talk  Contribs} 23:01, 25 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think a vacation scene is more appropriate myself. //Ae:æ 23:32, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've been bold and put Image:Nuvola apps kweather.png. Revert if you wish. GeorgeMoney ^(talk) 23:43, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think the image is great ^___^ - FrancisTyers 14:32, 19 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've got some proposals for images:

• Image:Nuvola apps kweather.png
• Image:Nuvola apps package network.png
• Image:Nuvola apps colors.png
• Image:Nuvola apps digikam.png
• Image:Nuvola filesystems trashcan full.png

GeorgeMoney ^(talk) 23:50, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I really like what I put. //Ae:æ 22:44, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, yours is good. I made this proposal before you put yours. GeorgeMoney ^(talk) 23:08, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

An iconic image would obviously be best, but nothing in Nuvola seems to fit the bill... (At least that's my opinion) //Ae:æ 16:24, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Umm... what does the current image have to do with taking a break? Borisblue 01:18, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Something metaphorical?  Maybe, David Kernow 02:22, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A break from the sunlight, and yet at the same time others receive sunlight and the world goes on. Ian¹³/t 15:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One of the categories the template is supposed to add people to is redlined on the main page. -- Kendrick7 07:15, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That category was deleted. See Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006_August_27#Category:Users_currently_away_from_Wikipedia

Would someone please add a parameter to choose a text alignment option for the message text? I'm of the school that messages should be aligned flush left for easier reading. Since this isn't a universally-held view, most likely the best solution would be to add a parameter to the template. (See a previous version of the {{Nutshell}} template.) I don't know enough about how to write code to do this myself. It would be great if when the parameter is left empty it defaults to center-aligned text, as that's what everyone's used to.

I put this on my talk page, but I still kept editing Wikipedia. What did I do wrong? --Merzul 18:51, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's not supposed to block you from editing, only admins can do that. - BANG! 04:00, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is it okay if I change the template round? With the colour and picture, because to be honest at the minute it looks very dull and unattractive currently. Francisco Tevez 11:44, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest setting up a test page for trying out changes. About 800 pages use this template so any change should gain consensus. I think a better picture might be in order but it should somehow relate to vacation (i.e. a beach scene or something). -- Mufka ^{(user) (talk) (contribs)} 22:34, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm definitely in favour of an image change, I've found this and think it looks much better however the colour I think is OK for the minute, The Sunshine Man is now Qst 16:44, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you object to the change of image mentioned above please specify this to determine consensus. Thanks -Qst 11:58, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK - I'm ok with the image change, but it's very subtle. -- Mufka ^{(user) (talk) (contribs)} 06:01, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Could we add the value "new baby" to the "types" field in the template? Sheesh, one can find an existing Wikibreak template for {{exams}} and even being {{grounded}}. One could conclude from this odd set of priorities in the needs addressed that the average Wikipedian was a fifteen year-old male living in his parents basement. :-/ llywrch (talk) 07:55, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to add new type "semi." Is this syntax valid?

{| class="messagebox standard" style=background:#F8EABA |- | [[Image:{{ #switch: {{{type}}} | exams = Nuvola apps bookcase.png | attempting | wikibreak | normal | short | #default = Sunset at Huntington Beach.jpg }}|{{#if:|{{{imagesize}}}|75px}}]] | style="text-align: center"| {{ #switch: {{{type}}} |exams = '''{{BASEPAGENAME}}''' is taking a short '''[[Wikipedia:Wikibreak|wikibreak]]''' to get ready for exams and will be back on Wikipedia once the exams are {{#if: |over on :{{{2}}}.|over.}}| attempting = '''{{BASEPAGENAME}}''' is trying to take a short '''[[Wikipedia:Wikiholiday|wikibreak]]''' and will be back on Wikipedia in a few days. Most likely, however, {{BASEPAGENAME}} will probably be making some small edits every once in a while anyway. | long | wikibreak | normal | short | semi | #default = '''{{BASEPAGENAME}}''' is taking a {{ #switch: {{{type}}} | long = long | wikibreak | normal | short | semi-| #default = short }} '''[[Wikipedia:wikibreak|wikibreak]]''' and will be back on Wikipedia in a few days}} |}

Could someone add alternate text for the images - maybe just something sickeningly cheesy like, for the beach, "Sun, sea and sand", or for the exams: "Revision, revision, revision". I'm not suggesting those though :D

Many thanks, Drum guy (talk) 14:39, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The "Name" parameter doesn't appear to be working on the Wikibreak template when I try to transclude it onto my talk page. Could I get some help? -Jéské ^{(v^_^v Mrrph-mph!)} 05:53, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can we replace this image with some other image such as Crepuscular rays color.jpg, File:Tuamotu 9612a.jpg. The current image doesn't deserve to be. --Extra 999 (Contact ^me) 03:17, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I decided the picture I made, except improve the picture. Needs some bit of gradients and sand stuff. Also a bit of sea. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 00:36, 27 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My template suggested template is above. (Take away the yellow box and make that white) Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 00:58, 27 October 2014 (UTC) See my sandbox, and that template is on the very bottom. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 06:53, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
