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.

Why don't you just make it easy on yourself and use this:

We need a picture of JUST the lightsaber's blade. The little shiny part, for you little kids. That is what I need for this idea to work. I'm just spitballing on this. I NEED YOUR HELP! Jedipilot94 01:21, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

 * 1)  Stake black   msg 01:32, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) It's out of universe and would connect members of the real-world organization. --  Riffsyphon  1024 17:10, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Jedimca0 (Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 17:16, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) I don't know if there are any 501st females, but if there are 'his' may have to be changed to 'their' so it isn't gender specific. But the box is a good idea  07:29, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) *Good point. How does it look now?  Stake black   msg 16:31, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 6) ** Much better 10:02, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 7) ***"Their" isn't proper grammar, (it's solely for plural) so think of another way.  Darth Anxor ( Rule the Galaxy ) [[Image:Sithempire2.png|20px]] 12:00, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 8) ****He ended up using his/her, which looks fine. Jorrel [[Image:Wiki-shrinkable.png|20px]] Fraajic 21:17, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 9) It's OOU so it's fine. And possibly good for the community. Jorrel [[Image:Wiki-shrinkable.png|20px]] Fraajic 21:17, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Read the rules- this is not allowed.  Darth Anxor ( Rule the Galaxy ) [[Image:Sithempire2.png|20px]] 11:09, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) *Why??
 * 2) *You should take a look at Riffsyphon's comment, and, of course, the 501st Legion (organization) article.  Stake black   msg 19:16, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) **I thought I missed something in the rules, but it appears I didn't --Jedimca0 (Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 07:16, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) ***Look at the top- Saying you support the legion is allowed, but saying you're a member is not.  Darth Anxor ( Rule the Galaxy ) [[Image:Sithempire2.png|20px]] 11:54, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) ****no, that's not what it says, or at least not what it means. It says we need to keep it out of universe and it is out of universe because it's about the membership of a real-world organization, not the membership of the in universe organisation. Read this and you’ll understand.--Jedimca0 (Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 12:34, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 6) *****OK, that's cool with me. :)  Darth Anxor ( Rule the Galaxy ) [[Image:Sithempire2.png|20px]] 20:56, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

I know there is already one supporting the customing organization, but this one is a bit different, and intended only for members :)  Stake black   msg 01:32, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

 * 1) Why? I admit I don't know much about hacking, but wouldn't this give online hackers something to work with?  StarNeptune Talk to me! 15:19, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Comments

 * Though an IP address has the ability to change, right? --  Riffsyphon  1024 05:08, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
 * For some people yes. Why would people want to advertise this? Because they might forget to log in or to allow people to track them? —Xwing328 (Talk) 23:54, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I would never use this, and would be highly annoyed if someone tried to mandate that I use it. I can't find any legitimate reason to oppose it, but I hate this idea. Atarumaster88  23:56, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I didn't realize that any userbox could become a mandated accoutrement to our user pages. --School of Thrawn 101 08:32, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Nobody's going to mandate any userboxes, including this one. - Sikon 04:55, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
