Wookieepedia:Userbox proposal

This page is for the nomination of new userboxes. For past nominations, see Userbox proposal/History or Userbox proposal/2006 archive.

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.
 * 6) Any userboxes that receive votes against can be deleted within the day, if the ratio is above 1 for/5 against.

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

 * 1) Just NO! didn't we vote against one of these a while ago? --Jedimca0(Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 16:51, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) I think I actually can, but whatever. Neither here nor there.  Chack Jadson  Talk 23:40, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) I think repeating proposals should undergo a look to see if its worth speedying. --  Riffsyphon  1024 00:01, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) Grr. Unit 8311 17:14, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Comments

 * 1) I like the idea of a userbox for imperial knights but I would rather have a pic than two letters for the userbox. Can this be used as an alternitive.Jacen Solo Jedi Master 23:16, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Now you cant just delete something in this page just because you dont like it. If it is out voted than it can be deleted not before. Jacen Solo Jedi Master 15:08, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

 * 1) Darth Haco 14:48, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) I like it... Jacen Solo Jedi Master 21:11, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) I'd like to know the reasoning behind all these bad ideas -- [[Image:AckbarSig.jpg|40px]] dmirableAckbar  ( It's A Trap! ) 15:09, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 2)  Chack Jadson  Talk  19:13, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) They'll run out of things to support eventually. Won't they? --  Riffsyphon  1024 04:28, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) I don't think they'll out of things to support, that's why I support objecting to all these bad ideas. --Jedimca0(Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 06:23, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) This page is going nowhere. We have a tiny handful of recently produced succesful noms, and a speedertruck-load of unsuccesful noms. All of which have been increasingly dumb in idea.

 * 6) This user doesn't support absurdly obscure ideas making it onto this page. Atarumaster88  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( Talk page ) 16:08, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 7) Per everyone (in the oppose section) Hobbes15 ( Tiger Headquarters ) 01:18, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 8) This user supports getting rid of nonsensical noms such as this. Unit 8311 17:14, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Comments

 * Amen to 8311. Why is everyone coming up with these totally random, and terribly ugly, userboxes? Jedipilot94 [[Image:fordocw.jpg|25px]] *Fo-Shizzle*  20:45, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) I'm trying... Really trying... Jedipilot94 [[Image:fordocw.jpg|25px]] (*Fo-Shizzle*)  00:21, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) I like, though I'd prefer this picture instead of the current ;-) Jorrel [[Image:Wiki-shrinkable.png|20px]] Fraajic 15:16, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) *Done. The only thing is, it doesn't stretch up much. That's why I did that picture first. Jedipilot94 [[Image:fordocw.jpg|25px]] *Fo-Shizzle*  20:29, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) Useful but let's be careful and not let it determine status simply because one person is able to attend and another is not. --  Riffsyphon  1024 21:23, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) *It's just to say hey, I go to the Mofference. It won't or at least shouldn't show how a user is better than another. Jedipilot94 [[Image:fordocw.jpg|25px]] *Fo-Shizzle*  22:29, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 6) In the absence of "This user would attend more Mofferences if they weren't in the middle of the night." Green Tentacle (Talk) 09:08, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * 5) Not as ridiclous as some of the other noms. Unit 8311 17:15, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) I've already been using one like this, and at any rate, I feel it's too specific to be introduced as a template.Note the more soothing colors and classic holocron look. - Graestan  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( This party's over ) 03:50, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Needs work (like including a URL to WookieeProject page, New Essential Guide to Characters page, etc. Once taken care of, I'll change my vote. Also, see comments below. Jorrel [[Image:Wiki-shrinkable.png|20px]] Fraajic 02:46, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Per Jorrel.  Chack Jadson  Talk 21:00, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) I'm not opposed to having a WP:NEGTC userbox, but the current one isn't great, in my opinion. -- [[Image:AckbarSig.jpg|40px]] dmirableAckbar  ( It's A Trap! ) 12:01, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Per Ackybar. - Graestan  [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] ( This party's over ) 15:05, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) I like the generic WookieeProject one, but this one is too specific  07:21, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) I too would like to see the generic one as below, but with better colors. Maybe a dark blue rather than green.  Livingston  [[Image:Jedi Order2.jpg|25px]] ( The Force will be with you. Always. ) 09:22, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Comments

 * Question: As one who knows just how many WookieeProjects there are, wouldn't it be wise just to make a one-size fits all template, where the user puts in the information themselves? For example:


 * ...where is the name of the project? (as for the WP in the picture section, I didn't know if there was a picture or something else distinguishing WookieeProjects). As for categories, couldn't a "Members who contribute to WookieeProjects/NEGTC, etc." be worked out? That's it. Jorrel [[Image:Wiki-shrinkable.png|20px]] Fraajic 02:46, 25 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Sounds like a better idea. --  Riffsyphon  1024 22:17, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Can this be used as an alternitive?

Jacen Solo Jedi Master 21:46, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
 * The majority of people have already supported a template that is more flexible than a single Project. Additionally for new Projects, a new template would have to be created. --  Riffsyphon  1024 00:01, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
