Wookieepedia:Userbox proposal

This page is for the nomination of new userboxes. For past nominations, see Userbox proposal/History.

Before you create
Before you propose a userbox, read the following:


 * 1) No nonsense or joke templates. What you think may be funny may not be to everyone else, so it's best to just keep it on your userpage.
 * 2) If you are creating a Star Wars themed userbox, try and keep it OOU (i.e. "This user is a fan of Jedi" is good, but "This user is a member of the New Jedi Order" is not).
 * 3) Any offensive/racist/provocative userbox proposals will be deleted on sight, and the user warned. If the user persists, he/she will be banned.
 * 4) Due to being inflammatory, any religious and political userboxes that are nominated here will be automatically rejected, so don't bother.
 * 5) When nominating a template, keep in mind that the template will be for community use, not just your exclusive use. As a rule of thumb, if you think at least 10 people will use your idea, nominate it. If not, it's best left as code on your userpage.

To use this page:


 * 1) Use the current date as a header, and add the code of the proposed userbox underneath (use the following syntax:  ).
 * 2) Multiple userbox proposals should be presented separately so that the community can vote on each userbox based on its individual merit. Up to three userboxes may be presented for approval under one vote, if and only if, they are closely related in theme or are proposed as alternatives.
 * 3) Add sections underneath for "Support", "Object", and "Comments". Your fellow Wookieepedians will use these sections to support, oppose, or comment on your design.
 * 4) Once a majority has been reached, and two weeks have passed, the userbox will be created as a template for use in the community. If the nomination fails, the template must not be created regardless. If it is, then it will be deleted on sight, and the offender warned.

Oppose

Comments

 * Isn't this the same as user hyper? --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 00:10, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed it is, but this one does show the user to be incredably open about Star Wars: Ewoks and Marvel Star Wars. --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:07, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

Does this fall under the joke category (Rule 1)? Jorrel Fraajic 16:14, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

I'll allow that it's probably not appropriate for a template, but is it, at least, a decently-made and effectively presented userbox or does it need something? --School of Thrawn 101 09:02, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Made these userboxes for other Star Wars-related Wikis. I put them together because I tought it would save space and the wikis are all about the same size, but they can be separated if they have to be 01:43, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
 * And why do these other wikis exist in the first place? --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:02, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
 * My question exactly. I thought there was already a Star Wars Games Wiki around someplace? The population of people who both play SW games AND wiki about it is small enough--I don't see much point in further subdividing and balkanizing an already niche market.

OK, how does this sound: [removed] ...Because otherwise people will use this box who have never actually resolved a dispute. (Unless that was the intent?)

 * Seriously, who's going to use this? Admins, for whom this is already part of their job, users already respected by the community as impartial who are providing or could provide this service without the need for a neon sign, and . . . all the Quinlanfans of the world. Think about it. Think about it for just one darn second. You tell me Quinlanfan would not put this on his page. And you tell me that you want noobs looking for dispute resolution to see this category and go to some doofus with a vastly overrated sense of his own importance, and you tell me that's the kind of person you want mediating disputes, or even thinking he has a right to mediate disputes. We already voted people into this job. It's called adminship. Do we really want all the egoistic bastards of the world appropriating it unchecked? Havac 02:02, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
