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.

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) Add sections underneath for "Support", "Object", and "Comments". Your fellow Wookieepedians will use these sections to vote for, oppose, or comment on your design.
 * 3) 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.

Against

 * 1) New userboxes are supposed to be OOU.– 05:39, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Ditto what Sentry said. Also, seems to me like this just doesn't serve much purpose on Wookieepedia. Nothing personal. Atarumaster88 02:01, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) Useless. -- Riffsyphon1024 05:53, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

I think we should have these, cos I have met people who know quite a lot about Star Wars but knows next-to-nothing about the force.

And we get to show off that extra bit.
 * I just don't understand what you mean by understanding of the Force&hellip;– 00:02, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * By that I mean understanding of force powers, what the force is, and stuff like that. - Nom Callide 13:17, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, vote for the one you think will be coolest. Lorth Needa 21:57, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * If any, it should be the first one, but who's going to admit they're as clumsy as they are stupid on their user page (minus using it only as a joke). Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hehe honestly I don't know, but its primary use will of course be as a joke. If you think about it, there really is a lot of other Userboxes who's only purpose is to amuse. And if you aren't clumsy you aren't stupid, you will have to look on it's bright side. Lorth Needa 23:51, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Still, I don't know if I'm going to vote yes or no. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) (Data file) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 23:57, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The first one is kinda funny, but who is actually going to use it?– 05:41, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think you should have the 2nd one, because although the 1st is slightly funnier, no-one will use it. Nom Callide 08:57, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I mean, Sentry's right. So many of us are much more clumsy than we are stupid, and vice versa. :-) -BaronGrackle 14:38, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * ;) Just to be clear, I wasn't saying that I thought you made a bad userbox Lorth Needa. I think it is funny, but it seems rather masochistic&hellip; – 20:26, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Rule 1: No joke or nonsense templates. 'Nuff said. Funny, but not suited for a general template. This would be much more appropriate for an individual's user page. If someone else wished to place it, they could just copy the code. Atarumaster88 02:03, 19 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hehe yeah I know, who cares I gave it a try;) If any, the second Userbox is the one who best matches the rules. And I promise, I have no reasons to be angry with you . Remember we're a team and a team stick together no matter what. Lorth Needa 21:10, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Yea
I liked "fleet", so why not "trooper" Commander Darc 03:14, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) James Teterenko 23:39, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Nay

 * 1) We have a template for users who support clone troopers, and I have a self-made one that should become an actual userbox template on my user page for stormtroopers. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 12:44, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Yeah, the problem is that there is no actual term "trooper junkie", like there is for "fleet junkie" or "fandalorian". -BaronGrackle 15:18, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) It's been done, man. Vyze 16:18, 16 August 2006 (GMT)

Oh, yeah, I made this. I forgot to put my name with it... Commander Darc 03:18, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Do you find that the Template:User clones and it's stormtrooper counterpart are insufficient? Fleet Junkie has a little history behind it, and people's reasons for using it, but I don't know whether Trooper Junkie would achieve particularly widespread use. Vyze 13:11, 16 August 2006 (GMT)
 * Hey, this userbox encompasses ALL troopers, not just stormies or cloners, but rebels, mando'ad, you name it. ALL the troopers. (But I like Admr. Nebulax's stormie box. Can you post that up here, please?)
 * It would be better renamed "This user specializes in soldiers." so that the other user knows he or she is the person to go to. -- Riffsyphon1024 04:55, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree with Riffsyphon1024. Thanks for compliment on the fleet junkies box, Commander. Atarumaster88 14:49, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. I'll do it. Commander Darc 22:33, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

I proposed this because I would use it, and because I think that others would too. A nice, simple, 'Mandalorians r0x0rs' userbox. Vyze 23:31, 15 August 2006 (GMT)
 * We already have Template:User mando. -LtNOWIS 22:48, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Which breaks our "userboxes must be OOU" guideline...8) &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 22:57, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Indeed, which is partly why I suggest this one instead. Vyze 23:57, 15 August 2006 (GMT)
 * Why don't you just modify Template:User mando to be OOU?– 23:04, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Can I do that without asking or proposing? Vyze 00:04, 16 August 2006 (GMT)
 * It now reads "This user is a fan of Mando'ade". Better? &mdash;Silly Dan (talk) 23:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Personally? No. But I may have to be happy with what my proposal has achieved. I'd propose to make ths proposal a choice between "Fandalorian" or "fan of Mando'ade", but I think that could be pushing my luck. Vyze 00:33, 16 August 2006 (GMT)
 * I personally prefer my old-school custom template I stole from someone, as seen on my user page. -LtNOWIS 05:39, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I made this since there was a Ewok Support Userbox yet I think nowadays Gungans need more support than Ewoks... :P Anyway I find this Userbox funny, yet in a kind way towards Gungans, and I think at least some people would use it. So, it's your vote. -Tyranus- 20:25, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Should we change the 'Support' and 'Oppose' to 'Okeeday!' and 'Mesa no thinkso'? :P Tocneppil 05:11, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * That would be great :D it's a pity the rules wouldn't allow it... :P -Tyranus- 12:20, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The idea itself is not bad, but I don't think this one would be used by many. Petiflo 11:58, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, I think if some people use the Ewok support one, why not some may use this? By the way, if the image is too big (compared to other Userboxs), I can make it smaller. -Tyranus- 12:08, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, yeah, my first response was to "oppose" this because I knew I wouldn't use it. However, I also know the Ewok template is rarely used, and I remembered that the Ewok template exists because of the controversy surrounding them. Well, the Ewok controversy is child's play compared to that caused by Gungans. And not that serious, doll-killer child's play either, but the simple kind. Yeah. -BaronGrackle 17:51, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Gungans are a marmite subject. Love or hate, no grey options. In spite of myself being one of the Hate Gungans crowd, I support this icon thingy so that it can be used by others.Vyze 23:18, 15 August 2006 (GMT)
 * I disagree with you, I'm on the grey option, I don't particulary love them or hate them. But I suppose it could be handy anyway so I'll support it. --Petiflo 12:25, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
