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) Add sections underneath for "Support", "Object", and "Comments". Your fellow Wookieepedians will use these sections to support, 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.

 * I re-worded this one so that it shows support for smugglers and other fringe elements and will no longer be mistaken for a nomination template for Wookieepedia accolades. Sorry to all for the previous confusion.  (P.S., thanks to Tocneppil for the advice)
 * Glad I could help:)Tocneppil 06:30, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

 * 1) Dude. All the way. All the way. Though instead of linking to LEGO Star Wars, I suggest you link to simply LEGO.-BaronGrackle 20:49, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Done. Thanks for pointing that out.Tocneppil 21:05, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Absolutely yes (there's a freakin' Star Destroyer set, for cryin' out loud!) Jwebb13 [[Image:oldsith.jpg|40px]] 21:40, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) This user's LSW sets have grown so numerous that he thinks they've started breeding (although he still can't afford an ISD). He supports it wholeheartedly. Cortle Steeze 13:55, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The ISD set comes with a Grand Moff Tarkin figure, no less. Jwebb13 [[Image:oldsith.jpg|40px]] 21:47, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Sounds cool to me. Brain40 (Holonet News) [[Image:Yuuzhan_Vong_Logo.jpg|19px]]

Against

 * 1) While I do like LEGO games and figures, I feel that it's unnecessary. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 13:57, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Agree with Nebulax, it's kinda unnecessary. Lorth Needa 12:37, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) No.  Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 03:44, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) Cute, but not needed. You're welcome to use it on your own page. - Breathesgelatin 20:54, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments

 * Well, if ANY of the collectibles templates are necessary, the LEGOs are. LEGO and Star Wars have produced unique combinations long before the games came out; there are LEGO figures for nearly every vehicle and major character. There have even been arguments on this very wiki over whether LEGO images should be used within specific articles. -BaronGrackle 17:52, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Mmm, nice. Cortle Steeze 13:55, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Well, I don't got anything against them, just that the Jawa box is more "on the subject" than the blaster. Lorth Needa 12:40, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, I know the sarlacc userbox was a bust, but I know these won't be. Brain40 11:49, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Why oppose them, Neb? They have just as much a reason to exist as "This user supports Ewoks". Cutch 21:58, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Would anyone be opposed to swapping the DH-17 image in the blaster fan's userbox for one of a DL-44? It's a minor issue, unless you are a blaster fan. Jwebb13 03:10, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I've changed it. Brain40 10:42, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

These should counterpoint the proposed Jedi userbox nicely. Cortle Steeze 18:40, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Yea

 * 1) Well, I did propose them... Cortle Steeze 18:40, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

 * 5) I'll vote for the Sith Order, but not Revan's Sith Empire. It seems redundant. 19:35, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) Both are strongly advocated! Cheers,  Relentless Recusant [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] 18:59, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Nay

 * 1) It should just be "This user supports the Sith Order". Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 18:44, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Done. Cortle Steeze 19:44, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Rhubarb, rhubarb
Someone may want to make a new version of the oldsith.jpg with white space above and below.Cortle Steeze 18:40, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * (It is done.) Cortle Steeze 20:13, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think the Darth Revan's Sith Empire is necessary, either. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 20:02, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Revan was different like Palpatine was different. Cortle Steeze 20:13, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Right, Revan's "Sith Empire" was a political faction that fought against the Republic with Sith Troopers, unlike any other group. -BaronGrackle 20:35, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

 * 6) Yeah, but with the games one from below. Green tentacle 10:38, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 7) 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)
 * 8) I agree with KEJ, but all the others are great! Could you perhaps add this userbox?

Again I will object to it!

 * 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)

For

 * 1) BaronGrackle 09:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) I like this LucasArts logo version better. 15:41, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) I agree. Logos look more professional than product covers/pictures.– 20:29, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) I'm in too, considering how much time I spend on Battlefront II Jwebb13 [[Image:oldsith.jpg|40px]] 21:45, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) I like it. To the point with a good picture. Cortle Steeze 22:09, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) I also like it. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Implogo.jpg|20px]] 18:34, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

 * 11) Like this version better. - Breathesgelatin 20:55, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Comments

 * These are a lot of userboxes for a single vote. I, for one, have a vested interest in the "video games" box. The one on my userpage looks more like this. The word choice is almost purely personal, along the lines of "supports Mando'ade" versus "is a Fandalorian", but I like "gamer" because it focuses on the person. I also prefer the LucasArts logo because: 1) Not everyone has the same games; I have never touched Bounty Hunter myself, and 2) Though this isn't the current LucasArts logo, this was the game logo for most of the best Star Wars games, from classics like X-Wing and Dark Forces to even the modern ones like KOTOR. But, as Jolee would say, flies are starting to draw around my mouth. What say ye, other game-players? -BaronGrackle 09:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

 * While this is probably the way to go about the proposal box for books, the image from the cover of the ANH novelization would have been more dynamic and eye-catching.Tocneppil 20:00, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

PS: I uploaded a classic Marvel box for collectors such as yourself.– 23:18, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Again, I would've preferred an image, like a cover from a comic (never mind that my collection is geared more towards the older, Marvel series).Tocneppil 20:04, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't like to use cover art because it ties the userbox to a certain product which probably is not universally adored.
