Wikipedia talk:Userboxes

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

While I don't think this page should exist as a pseudo-project (since consensus is against non-Babel userboxes), I think this page should be turned into an official policy regarding userboxes, telling what kinds are acceptable (e.g. Babelboxes) and which are not, as well as why. See: User:Cromwellt/Userboxes for my policy proposal. --Cromwellt|talk|contribs 22:43, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It looks at the moment like only Babel and Wikipedia/Wikimedia boxes will be allowed. Archer7 - talk 16:02, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

More Userboxes

[change source]

I have made some userboxes at User:Tanthanyes/Userboxes. Is there a gallery to put them in or something? Tanthanyes (talk) 17:10, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As for as I know, no. Just this page is all, really. -- RyanCross (talk) 07:57, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Where are all the userboxes?

I've created a few, but seriously why aren't there more? Tezkag72 (talk) 19:48, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Question

[change source]

I thought that we as a community decided that userboxes would only be allowed in the userspace. Why do I see all of the userboxes on the Wikipedia:Userbox page? Surely someone should have brought this up to the community before they proposed it, right? Cheers, Razorflame 18:14, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More userboxes

[change source]

I noticed some of you guys were wondering where all the userboxes are. There are a lot more, just follow these instructions:

  • Go back to the Userbox page.
  • See the sidebar with a list of languages? Click on English.
  • Scroll down the article until you reach a list of userbox categories. Click on one, and there are a couple gazillion userboxes. I think you can still use them in Simple English. Smileybell (talk) 05:56, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, sorry, I got it wrong. They won't work in our wikipedia...Smileybell (talk) 05:51, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You can easily copy them to your page and use them. 71.143.223.97 (talk) 20:59, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Creating Userboxes

[change source]

Hi guys, I was just wondering, how do you create userboxes? I want clear instructions, and NOT a link to the English Wikipedia, because I already tried there, and couldn't understand a word that was on the page. Also, can the people that reply put a talkback template on my Talk page? I don't have the initiative to check back here. Thanks :D Orashmatash (tc) 21:01, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Problem

[change source]

There's a definite problem here. All the userboxes have disappeared and have been replaced with links... Is it possible to return it to what it was like before? Orashmatash (tc) 17:27, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
