Degrees not yet listed

Master of Public Health

I just created a category for the MPH (Master of Public Health) degree, and would like to create a user box for it as well. Using the code I found, I picked some colors and generated one in the format of the other degree boxes:

MPHThis user has a Master of Public Health degree.




I wasn't sure if this belonged on this page or the "New Userboxes" page, as it's not really an "official" userbox yet. (I'm fairly new here.) Anyway, if anyone knows how to go about officially registering or creating it, please do. Mmagdalene722 (talk) 17:16, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Third-party politics

I would like to see some users-boxes to fit more of the third parties. We have Republican, Democrat, liberal, conservative, etc, but none of the third parties. Heres what I would like to see: "This user is a member of the (Green Party, Constitution Party, Etc.)". As a member of the Green party, it would be most helpful. Coolgamer (talk) 19:40, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Lazy

Anyone able to make a userbox stating that the user is lazy and only edits Wikipedia when he is moved to do so. Something to state that a user does care about his edits, but only when he gets around to it. NeuGye (talk) 05:13, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Torananoha?

How about a Triangle Heart and/or Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha set? I'm not into the text icons, so maybe one of us can whip up a picture of a katana and/or a red orb for Raising Heart. I'm thinking

"This user thinks Fuwa-ryuu beats Mid-childa magic any day" with the sword and vice versa with the orb, or
for those that like the series equally, "This user practices Mikami-ryuu and Belka magic."

'The Abridged Series' Userboxes.

I was thinking, how about a few Userboxes on Abridged Series. For example: One for Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series with the text saying: "Screw the Rules. I have Money." And then a box by the side reading "TAS".

Or "This user is not gay, this user is just british." with the side box thing reading "TAS". These are just suggestions but......

What about Rutger Hauer character from The Hitcher :) one of the most genuinly freaky performances ever! Terrasidius (talk) 03:29, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm noob here

Some suggestions. First, for those (like moi...) who make more posts on talk pages than edits on pages:

{number}This user has made {number} editorial comments.

where {number} is an auto-generated variable, like the "#posts" boxes". And

This user created {article}.

because I find the dark grey of the existing box makes links too hard to read. I thought I saw an automatic counter somewhere, like this somewhere... I wouldn't want to do it manually... As for the 2d, I'm using it now (in white & yello, tho). And then these:

This user created the article {article}.
This user is a member at plane.spottingworld
This user is a member at train.spottingworld
This user is a member at TrainSpottingWorld and PlaneSpottingWorld.

That's a great idea. On a similar note, I'd also like to see one that regards celibacy. Like, "This user is a celibate" or something. As I'm something of a celibate, I'd use it. Pippin the Mercury (talk) 21:20, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia-Related Extension of Kindness-Campaign

This Talk page protected by the
Good Faith Page-Policy.




Kindness Campaign extension emboldening User Talk pages. Should this be a new category of Userbox (beyond Template:, User:, or Wikipedia:, to Talk:?) or should it be a subcategory of User: located under User_Talk/Userboxes/ ?

The aim here is to give ruffians a heads-up that their coarse language and hostile ways will be scrubbed as it arrives, their ears will be washed, and their manners will be required, else their contribution severely curtailed or restricted by recharacterization and refactoring. Gone will be the times of old when quivering Users were pelted with gangland graffiti seemingly without authority to change the course of conversation lest it be called 'Vandalizing their own Talk Page'! Individual sovereignty in sleek, squeaky-clean filtration will keep out the vulgarity of the gutters and depressed, mean-spirited insouciance to good faith. Chin up!

What do you think? Is this a helpful extension of this Campaign, or is it too great a perturbance of userboxes such that it begins to infiltrate where they ought not be (User_Talk space)?-- self-ref (nagasiva yronwode) (talk) 05:24, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Christianity & Color(race)

Looking through the religion userboxes, I noticed that none of them are very plain or general; the plainest one had the fish symbol, which may not appeal to someone who doesn't identify as a Prostestant. My idea: All black, white letters, white empty cross, with the words "This user is an adherent (to/of?) Christianity" or such. Also, the ethnicity boxes aren't very general either, so I reckoned one could say "This user identifies as white" and "This user identifies as black". The "...identifies..." would make the potential user of the box feel more comfortable as they may identify as white/black even though they're not completely Caucasian/Negro. I'd create these boxes myself, but I've never been able to pick up the skill. PS: If I add/delete/move userboxes on my profile, can I mark that as a minor edit? Castitus (talk) 22:27, 4 November 2008 (UTC)


Not always. Minor edits are mainly fixing a speelin error. If your were to fix that misspelled word in the sentence, that is a minor edit. Moving/Deleting/Adding can count if it is, well, short. Here is the userbox you requested:


This user is an adherent of Christianity.

Making the whole thing black does not make it look like a userbox, more like a squirt of ink, or De Blob when black. I will be more than happy to make you some userboxes. Oh, to use that userbox in the library, paste


{Userbox | border-c=grey | border-s=1| id-c=black| id-s=12| id-fc=white| id-op=| info-c=black| info-s=8| info-fc=white| info-lh=1.2em| info-op=| id=✝| info=This user is an adherent of Christianity.}} on to a user subpage. Add one { to the front to make it functional. BacktoMac32Talk to Me!


The reason I suggested all black was that it seemed the most universal color for Christianity (Black, in Euro-American civilization symbolizing morality). Castitus (talk) 20:02, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

MHThis user is a mystery hunter

How about this? also, how do you add the pictures? by mystery hunter I mean the show.sinister falcon (talk) 11:22, 7 November 2008 (UTC)


To add a picture, I think you'd want to find a picture on wikipedia you like, click on it, and find the title, which should be in large, bold print over the image. Then try adding the title, for lack of a better word, in the spot you have marked id=MH. Unless I'm mistaken, that should work. I'm not sure how to give userboxes a simple, pretty code like {{User:UBX/French cooking}, though; I haven't much bothered to figure it out yet. If you need any more help, feel free to drop me a line any time, mind I probably won't be able to help much. Castitus (talk) 22:58, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Literature boxes

I've already pasted these boxes on a different Talk Page but maybe this is the right place for help/advice. As you can see, I'm toying with a series of userboxes based on Classical literature (Aristophanes' plays in particular at the moment). Each box links to one of my sandboxes where the context for the statement is explained, with further links to pages about the ancient author and his works. I see this use of userboxes as a way of promoting knowledge about a given topic. What I want to know is this:

  • Are these boxes technically OK - or have I embedded a problem in them that will emerge later? Basically, I copied other people's boxes and experimented with them.
  • Is the dirty language against Wiki policy or is it OK in view of the context?
  • How do I set about creating a userbox category for Classical Latin and Greek Literature?
  • If I do create a new category, can it include a subpage like my sandbox with explanations of context?

Thanks for any advice/help you can give. User:Lucretius/Aristophanes and the victory song Lucretius (talk) 23:24, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

Could anyone make a userbox that tells people you are a cellist? 208.107.163.60 (talk) 20:44, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes - you can! First, get a real user name. Second, create a sandbox on your user page where you can experiment. Third, copy templates from other users and - experiment! It's actually quite simple and straight forward once you have chosen a couple of templates and have worked out how to adjust them to your own needs/tastes.
One problem maybe - I created ten boxes on my own user page and there has been a sudden spike in uploads/downloads recorded by my telco, and a big increase in my bill! I'm not sure of the dynamics but I an wondering if I have in fact made my userpage more expensive to use than it once was on account of the extra data on it. On the other hand, it could have a different cause, such as an upgrade in my anti-virus software.Lucretius (talk) 22:17, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Baptism

OK. While there are numerous Christian infoboxes, I'd like to add in a new wrinkle to this- A Baptism infobox. There are several variants possible: Text

  • This user has been Baptized.
  • This user has been Baptized at birth. (Note:This can be found at User:Jack/UBX/Baptised.)
  • This user has been Baptized as a child.
  • This user has been Baptized as an adult.
  • This user has not been Baptized.
  • This user has been Baptized multiple times.
  • This user has been Baptized by Aspersion (Sprinkling).
  • This user has been Baptized by Afflusion (Pouring).
  • This user has been Baptized by Immersion.
  • This user has been Baptized by Submersion. (Note: See the article above- Submersion and Immersion are not the same.)
  • This user has been Baptized by Submersion at Birth. (Note: For the Orthodox and certain others)
  • This user has been Baptized in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • This user has been Baptized in the Name of Jesus.
  • This user has been Baptized for the Dead. (Note: For Latter-Day-Saints.)
  • This user views Baptism as necessary for Salvation.
  • This user views Baptism as assurance of Salvation.
  • This user does not view Baptism as necessary for Salvation.
  • This user views Baptism as a Sacrament.
  • This user views Baptism as an Ordinance.
  • This user views Baptism as a Symbol, which isn't necessary. (Note: For Quakers and Salvationists)
  • This user believes infants may be Baptized.
  • This user believes only adults can be truly Baptized.

I could go on, but this is enough for now.

Images: Some possible images can include Baptismal fonts (Include the Orthodox one for the unique Orthodox entry), baptistries (include the LDS Temple one for the unique LDS entry.) and people undergoing Baptism in photos or paintings.

I have a long list of further infobox ideas that I'd like, with a few more thrown in for good measure... They include: Politics:

This user supports third parties.
This user is a poll worker. (The image for this icon would be [1] or [2] )
This user thinks Obama/McCain/Both should have picked a better VP. (One userbox for each... The images would show a slash through Joe Biden and/or Sarah Palin.)
This user believes Scott Ritter.

Comics:

This user believes the worst thing to happen to DC Comics was Dan DiDio. (The images can show a "DC" on one side and a "DD" with a slash through it on the other.
Siht resu si a Annataz naf. (Read the words backwards... Appropriate images can include the letter "Z" or a Top Hat.)
This user has the Power of Shazam. (Image is a stylized cartoon lightning bolt.)
This user is a member of the Justice League of America. (The JLA logo or letters would be good for this.)

Transportation:

This user believes the worst thing to happen to GM was Rick Wagoner. (See the DiDio idea above for how to do this.)
This user is a pedestrian.

Entertainment:

This user's favorite Companion is (name). (For those who like more than one, you can have your favorite male companion, female companion, or robotic companion. Or, alternatively, you can customize it with specific phrases for specific companions, like "This user is Four-hearts-beating-as-two in love with Romanadvoratrelundar I.")

Literature:

This user knows that H.P. Lovecraft created the Necronomicon and doesn't believe in that Sumerian nonsense. (This can go in religion as well.)

Religion:

This user is a hymnologist/ amateur hymnologist. (Images can include musical notes, hymnals, the Southern Harmony version of Amazing Grace, etc.. This can also be put in the music section.)
This user is (specific belief system) but encourages religious faith in general outside their belief system.
This user is religiously iconoclastic.

If it takes off (and it could, as a watchlist request has been made, and quite a lot of people are involved) the userboxes could get onto a lot of user pages, and it's a great way of showing support (or lack of support) for a really universal proposal.

As a person who tends to lean more toward Arius's views, I'd like to see a userbox created along the lines of "This user sides with Arius in his rejection of Trinitarian theology", or something like that. There is a small image of Arius available here: File:Arius.png, for use in that box. I'd create it myself, but I'm thoroughly confused as to how to do that, and would rather leave it to someone else who knows better, if possible! A second potential userbox might say: "This user follows the teachings of Arian Christianity", while using this image: Baptistery.Arians06.jpg. Either one, or both, would be appreciated. Thanks! - Ecjmartin (talk) 16:59, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

I decided to theme the colours accordingly with the images. If you have any problems with them, just tell me. Forentitalk 06:38, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

System Idle Process

I have no time or patience to make a userbox (heck, I'm lucky I figured out a custom sig), but it'd be cool to have one that reads:

"This user is homies with the System Idle Process."

You know, on XP task manager. The thing that tells how much CPU usage you're NOT using. The logo should simply read SIP, and it should be black with green letters. I'm pretty sure we could all use this userbox.

Classic country

I don't want a userbox that says I like country music because a lot of what country radio plays today isn't country. Or at least not what I can enjoy. {{User:Yozzer66/userboxes/Williams and Cash}} doesn't work for me either, because I don't have a deep appreciation for Johnny Cash or Hank Williams (not sure whether he means Jr. or Sr., but it doesn't matter either way). I just enjoy their music, but these are artists that imply taking it to a different level. If I had artists' names in my userbox, they would be Alan Jackson and George Strait. Or I could just have a classic country userbox.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 19:04, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Okay, experimenting with the practice template:

{{Userbox | border-c = #999 | border-s = 1 | id-c = red | id-s = 14 | id-fc = black | info-c = #EEE | info-s = 8 | info-fc = black | id = id | info = This user likes '''[[classic country|REAL country music]]'''. | float = left }}
id This user likes REAL country music.

Flannery O'Connor and other authors?

I would like to have a userbox that declares that Flannery O'Connor is my favorite author. Other userboxen for other authors, such as Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Jung Chang, and Richard Feynman would also be appreciated. RobertAustin (talk) 03:56, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Special Relationship

Although this may seem like a strange idea for a userbox, I thought I would make two opposing userboxes stating one's opinion on the "Special Relationship" between the US and the UK

US-UKThis user supports the Special Relationship
US UKThis user does not support the Special Relationship

Absurdly amazing userbox

I don't have the skills and/or time to make my own, so I apologize for mooching off you guys. If you'll grant me this userbox, I am grateful.

OK, so it reads "This user has the Syndrome". Link the bolded text to Ninja, and have a picture of a tomato in the box. Preferably a gold one. What this box means isn't your business, unless you ask. Which nobody does. And it needs to be black with gold text. Thanx yuu! 2J Bäkkvire Maestro Test UR Skill! What I've Done 03:57, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Tried my best with the image, wasn't sure if you wanted it animated or not and it was hard enough to find a good free-licensed photo of a tomato, let alone a gold one? I wont bother you by asking you the meaning of anything. Feel free to edit it if you find a more suitable picture or if you need any more changes, just contact me and I would be happy to change anything. Forentitalk 06:04, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Subtle Vandalism Taskforce

The Subtle Vandalism Taskforce is in need of a userbox. It should probably go with the usual wording of "This user is a member of the Subtle Vandalism Taskforce", wikilink included. The images I have narrowed it down to are this or this. I personally prefer the former, though it is up to the userbox creator. Thank you. SilverserenC 07:30, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

Userboxes about Scriptures

I was trying to find some userboxes which would indicate my interest in Hindu Scriptures (like Bhagavad-Gita, Mahabharata, etc.), but could not find any. I think the userboxes for many other Scriptures are missing too. So far I was only able to find the following ones:

This user prefers to read sacred texts in their original language whenever possible.
This user is interested in the Bible.
This user is interested in the Qur'an.

That's really too few... Nazar (talk) 19:04, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

You must not know where to look but there is a huge directory of religion-based userboxes just here, as well as a few good Hindu ones. If you have any special requests though, just post it either here or on my talk page. Forentitalk 09:50, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
I searched that directory very carefully before posting here. I took a bunch of boxes from there. But, just as I said above, there are no boxes related to Holy Scriptures except for the 3 I referenced above (I mean there are a few more variations about Bible and Quran, but nothing else). There are boxes about Hinduism, Buddhism and other religions in general, as well as variations of them. But a userbox about certain Scripture is something quite different... Would be nice if we had a few of these... Nazar (talk) 10:47, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
Sorry, I misinterpreted your comment - I understand now. There does seem to be very few based on this sub-topic. I shall begin working on making some shortly (they will be posted here in a day or two...). In the meantime, would you mind telling me which of these scriptures are important enough to be deemed necessary because I am familiar with very few of these. Forentitalk 11:12, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
Unlike the Christianity and Islam (which have basically only Bible and Quran, as the first grade Scriptures), Hinduism and Buddhism have quite a whole Library of them. In Hinduism the popular and important ones are the epics of Mahabharata and Ramayana. Bhagavad-Gita alone is very important too. Hindu texts in general deserve a Userbox, I guess. And, depending on various denominations of Hinduism, one might include a few more, like Vedas, Upanishads, etc... Nazar (talk) 11:37, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
For Buddhism I'd surely include Perfection of Wisdom, with Diamond Sutra, Heart Sutra, and maybe a few more (I'll ask on the Buddhism portal, they'll surely have more to suggest). -- Nazar (talk) 11:37, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
For Taoism -- Tao Te Ching is my very favorite one :) I leave it to experts to add more :) - Nazar (talk) 11:37, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
For Judaism -- Tanakh and Talmud are obvious! -- Nazar (talk) 11:37, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
Take Svetambara for Jainism. -- Nazar (talk) 11:37, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
Something for Aztec religion and Maya religion would be very nice too. Nagualism (Carlos Castaneda) and related spiritual practices have a large following too. -- Nazar (talk) 11:37, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
The Buddhist scriptures mentioned above are purely Mahayana, and even there there are plenty more. You could have a look at Buddhist texts & see whether it gives you any ideas. Peter jackson (talk) 09:42, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
Unlike Western religions, where there is one primary scriptures. Hinduism has many, depending on various denominations of Hinduism, Vaishanavas have the Bhagavad-Gita, the epics and Vaishnava Puranas. Shaivas have Shaiva Puranas, Shri Rudram Chamakam. Shaktism has Devi Mahatmya etc. So I suggest a userbox with "This user is interested in X" where X is a parameter. The image can be a Om or any sanskrit manuscript like File:Devimahatmya Sanskrit MS Nepal 11c.jpg or File:Bhagavad Gita, a 19th century manuscript.jpg cropped. --Redtigerxyz Talk 16:24, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Furry fandom

I've tried looking for a userbox that is about the fandom, but i've been unable to find one. What I would like is a userbox that says "This user is a furry." Wikilink included. If there already exists such a userbox, please let me know. If not, I was thinking that this image would have to do. It's not really what I wanted, but I couldn't find anything even really close to what I was looking for. If the userbox creator has a better image to use, please feel free to do so. Thank you.
