Also, just so I know, would something like this Barney box be allowed due to the image use? I see a few other tv shows in the media templates use characters.

I propose this as a Snopester userbox, I will also make another if permission is granted to use a image from the website. B.D.Will 11:14, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
As other mental conditions have Userboxes, and categories, why not Dysthymia?
Thus, I propose a Userbox for Dysthymic Wikipedians, and a category for us. With such a varied community, surely there are other Dysthymic Wikipedians.
Please don't make the talk page look a mess & If you have a userbox and you don't know to do something, please post in main Userboxes talk page. --RaptorX 18:45, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Could somebody make userboxes for the two positions on Wikipedia:Don't use line breaks? --Error 03:48, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
I'm amused by the range of "favourite colour" userboxes available; why not have one that you can just pipe in a standard colour code (#RRGGBB or whatever) that will produce a box saying "This user likes the colour #RRGGBB", mainly in that colour, with some contrasting text color?
I dont know how to make Userboxes so I will just give my ideas...
Thanks and THANK YOU if any of these ideas are used Yarnalgo 04:09, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi! I'd like to use a userbox, but I don't know how to make it. I need an ID like this Image:Crystal important.png or Image:Nuvola apps important.svg, but with "Ь" symbol (it's a cyrillic letter), not "!".
How about a box for users who edit under their real names? G Clark | Talk 22:01, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

An image would be better suited for it ... but there it is! Sarahgal 00:26, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
"NEAT" userboxes. this includes nice activities, skills, sports, good things, standard seasons. some existing userboxes are very special, and it makes sense, to outsource:
-hate -political/historic event -disease/disability -special sexuality
they do not have the effect to make people happy! especially young people do not want to scroll them each time. it does distract people greatly. the categories can take major rewrite/regrouping. it makes sense to create more than one set of categories:
-red/blue? -halloween? -blueberry strawberry? -sun symbol?
right now the user boxes are not economic (optimized like to attract customers). there are discussions (where ever) about the broadcasting of images of war, terror, hate and disability (if it should be allowed). probably the model of "emotional tone" helps (of the whole pages). if you do not understand it, i think the "sexuality" categories are not official/scientific. wikipedia has become a public information provider, and needs to verify its image. alex 14:20, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
I think that an Alpha flag (the international maritime signal for diver down) would be more appropriate than an American diver down flag as the image for the ((user Scuba Diver)) userbox. However, I'm not sure what would be the more appropriate action; to create a second scuba userbox template, to start discussion on changing the current template here, or to start discussion at Template talk:User Scuba Diver. Can anyone help me out? Here's the current userbox (top) and what the new userbox (bottom) might look like:

I'm an archaeologist but it isn't my job - I just do it part time because I love it. There are many people who take part in and are interested in archaeology but do not do it professionally. There is also an archaeology WikiProject and portal. May I therefore suggest three types of archaeology userbox (there are none at the moment):

Antitheist userbox needed.. Interested2 22:06, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
I'd like a userbox "This user is a fan of foreign language films" or similar. Thnks. Gram 01:12, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
I think there should be at very least:
'cause I like Fantasy a lot, and I like Sci-Fi but there's no tags for general spec fic or Fantasy! I want to cover both. :)
Also, I think it might also be neat to have userboxes like:
I for one would kill for a Fantasy userbox, and LOVE to have a Werewolf userbox (hee, maybe even a "This user is a Werewolf" userbox? That could be fun!).
I don't know how to create these things yet, but, here are some suggestions for design:
Runa27 08:12, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
This doesn't quite fit with my Fantasy/Spec fic related ones, so I've put it in a seperate bit.
I regularly read Fan Fiction; I occasionally write it, too, though mostly parodies. I've also contributed to the Fan Fiction,FanFiction.net and Mary Sue articles, and joined (this is a KEY thing for me) the Fan Fiction WikiProject.
WikiProjects sometimes have userboxes so people who join them can post it on their User page without having to mess with links.
I propose we create a userbox for people who are members of WikiProject Fan Fiction. :) Clearly, there's interest in improving the Fan Fiction coverage, as there has been a lot of activity recently on the Fan Fiction page (though granted, a lot of that was a handful of users, myself included, but still) and to a lesser extent, the Mary Sue page. And the WikiProject's been around for quite some time now. So, yeah. Can we finally get our own userbox? :)
I'd also like to see This User Reads Fan Fiction and This User Writes Fan Fiction userboxes, though I'm a little more concerned with getting one for the WikiProject.
I think one of the quill icons could be used for any of these tags' designs, since it's writing-related.
Runa27 08:12, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
I've been reading through a lot of the conflicts and proposals regarding userboxes, and it seems that a lot of people support the idea of userboxes based on interest. However, existing userboxes along that line are spotty, at best.
I would like to work on creating a subcategorized set of userboxes based on subject interest.
My reasoning:
A rough example of what I am thinking is:
![]() |
This user is interested in the subject of Christian history. |
In categorizing, these users would be in a subcategory of Christianity (which is in turn a subcategory of Religion and Philosophy) as well as History. A person can be as specific or general as they want about their areas of interest.
So, is this the right place to make the proposal? I've been thinking it through, and I would like to see it happen, but I know it would take me a long time to get this done on my own. Sxeptomaniac 16:39, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
Here's a small addition: I think it would be best started by creating Wikipedia:Userboxes/Subjects as a subcategory of Wikipedia:Userboxes/Interests. Sxeptomaniac 17:45, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
