Introduction

This template appears as a little status indicator.

The former status display on main page has been retired. Look at Platform Status for information about status and issues.

The reason for retiring of the status display is that it could give the impression of being an automatic error message. However, it was a purely manual specification and this was only rarely maintained. See Talk:Main_Page/Archive_3#Platform_status for the archived discussion.
