Wookieepedia:Userbox proposal

This page is for the nomination of new userboxes.

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 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.

Made by me. Because I like the GFFA. And I'm sure others do too.

 * 4) Nighthawk leader 10:42, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) I'm not sure how I feel regarding the GFFA, but it's a good-looking userbox for an important organization. Jwebb13 HoloNet[[Image:oldsith.jpg|40px]] 05:46, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) I would use this. April Seven 03:51, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Against

 * 1) Prefer the original-- 10:35, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Comments

 * I had to change the color to see the icon. That PNG is transparent in decent web browsers. -- Darth Culator  (Talk)(TINC) 12:24, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I was wondering why it was just a black box. Green Tentacle (Talk) 15:43, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * No, it's not really their logo, but it's the New Republic one. And the GFFA is just the New Republic with balls. .  .  .  .  22:31, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Made by Cutch. I am proposing it again because the previous vote, combined with the box above, was too confused to interpret.– 20:24, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

You know what&mdash;I'm Supporting it for once!

 * 1) O.K. It's been 3 weeks. I've waited long enough. Hope this one clicks everyone who lays an eye on it. Jabbathehuttgartogg  [[Image:Desilijic Clan (Jabba’s Tattoo) .jpg|20px]] [[Image:Desilijic Clan (Jabba’s Tattoo) .jpg|20px]] 23:15, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * 3)  23:55, 7 September 2006 (UTC) Removed my vote since they've changed.
 * 4) I'm in; it helps to categorize a user's inner fanboy and show which aspects of this whole wonderful Wookiee world they're into. Jwebb13 [[Image:oldsith.jpg|40px]] 00:20, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) Me too:) -but oh, those colors.Tocneppil 02:19, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

 * 9) Yeah, but with the games, books and comics ones from below. Green tentacle 10:38, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 10) Support all except the one with the user having no SW collection. Being a Star Wars fan does not imply you have to be a collector!!!!! KEJ 11:15, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 11) I agree with KEJ, but all the others are great! Could you perhaps add this userbox?

 * My problem with this proposal is that there are simply too many userboxes being proposed at once. Please add your comments about a possible change in policy on the talk page.– 19:57, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Ummm... ROTS and Galactic Heroes in the same box? I'm somewhat insulted... It's like comparing a cap gun to a .45... Commander Darc (GAR) [[Image:Galactic_Republic.JPG|20px]] 02:31, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * OK. We now have versions of the comics, books, and games userboxes created. Here is my suggestion: why don't we just have ONE user box for all Hasbro collectors, symbolized by the Hasbro logo? Could someone make one?  - breathesgelatin Talk 05:19, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, some of us only collect vintage figures (made by Kenner), or the miniatures, or the larger, 12-inch figures. . . Tocneppil 05:36, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * My thinking exactly Breathesgelatin. I was actually going to create a 'Kenner' template last night, but I was having some computer trouble. I will see what I can do&hellip; – 06:04, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I figured out how to make them; please tweak if you can improve them any. To respond to Tocneppil, I really don't think we need such a huge diversity of userboxes. Hasbro is enough. For example, I only collect the Gentle Giant animated maquettes and no other of their lines, but I'd only support a userbox that was for Gentle Giant collectors generally... can't be overly specific in my opinion.  - breathesgelatin Talk 06:14, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, there are those who like being specific in their allegiances (supporters of Revan-era Sith, for example), and we are talking about 'user'boxes here; people want to personalize their userpages (which is why we have the astrology userboxes). And in some cases that can be helpful, say if someone wants to know if a Kenner Boba Fett figure was ever released with a missile-firing backpack, they'd want to go to someone who had knowledge specific to that area.Tocneppil 19:16, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * But... this isn't a collecting forum or community. Those questions could probably be more easily answered at RebelScum or SWAN, anyway. I still think general userboxes are better. We can agree to disagree. :) - breathesgelatin Talk 00:31, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Two Alternatives
Instead of the remaining unapproved collection userboxes, I propose only two, one for classic figures and one for contemporary figures. Please feel free to tweak if you can make them look better, I'm new to this.  - breathesgelatin Talk 06:14, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Support

 * 1)  - breathesgelatin Talk 06:14, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * 08:26, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) I guess a couple of minis are enough for me to use the Hasbro template, eh? -BaronGrackle 20:41, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Green Tentacle (Talk) 21:26, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) Even though I don't collect either brand, (at least not much) I'm supporting. 10:20, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) Less chaotic and space consuming than the other collecting templates. Riffsyphon1024 23:26, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) Tocneppil 04:06, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) May as well be honest with myself, here.  Jwebb13 HoloNet[[Image:oldsith.jpg|40px]] 00:44, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Further Discussion
What do you think of these tweaked versions? – 08:29, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Better. Feel free to replace mine with those.  - breathesgelatin Talk 17:29, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
