"User freespeech" template

[edit]

Helloo.. Saw your free speech thing and thought you might be interested in this template (which is also linked from the WikiProject talk page: {{User:Feureau/UserBox/freespeech}}

A link so you can preview it: {{User:Feureau/UserBox/freespeech}}

Hope you like, it's pretty much the same but will also automatically add you to the Wikipedians against censorship category. :) --Mistress Selina Kyle 17:50, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

userbox purge

[edit]

We can help each other get this template back. I made a backup of every single userbox on wikipedia just in case another admin decided they were above the law. I will be re-uploading it's box and I will need your help with any revert wars. Here is the code....

<div style="float: left; border:solid {{{1|red}}} 1px; margin: 1px;"> {| cellspacing="0" style="width: 238px; background: {{{2|red}}};" | style="width: 45px; height: 45px; background: {{{1|}}}; text-align: center; font-size: {{{5|}}}pt; color: ;" | '''{{{3|[[Image:Stalin3.jpg|45px]]}}}''' | style="font-size: 8pt; padding: 4pt; line-height: 1.25em; color: white;" | {{{4|This user survived the '''Great 2006 New Year's Day Userbox Purge'''.}}} |}</div>

I shall be watching closely, in the mean time the code is goin into my userpage's extensive collection of userboxes. Tom 20:44, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I know. What wound me up was the fact that there's no discussion or explanation anywhere that I've been able to find. Tom 21:10, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Well, it isn't entirely necessary to have the Stalin image. If that were removed (and maybe replaced with, say, a red circle-with-bar) I think it could be readded without a great deal of controversy. - Cuivienen 00:16, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

user against scientology has been speedily deleted

[edit]

I have requested undeletion at WP:DRV#Template:User_against_scientology. Regardless of whether or not this template has any merit it should be undeleted until the tfd has run it's course. Your vote at the tfd counts for nothing if the speedy deletion stands.--God of War 06:13, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your userpage was briefly delisted by a rogue admin

[edit]
This user believes that only articles need reflect a NPOV, and that displaying political, religious, or other beliefs using userboxes and user categories should not be banned.

You have a userbox Template:User UN which links your userpage to United Nations Wikipedians. There is currently a movement to ban userboxes from Wikipedia which are shared and which create List of Wikipedians. Certain admins have taken it upon themselves to preemptively sabotage and/or delete such categories and template. Here is the incident report which reported damage to yours, in which hundreds of userpages were delinked from categories without the users' knowledge. They have been stopped, barely, and the damage reverted— for now.

There is a Wikipedia:Userbox policy poll, which if passed, will make required by policy the damage done to categories and templates such as User UN/United Nations Wikipedians. If you do not want this to happen, I urge you to vote Oppose. in the poll. Support is currently running at about 66%, and your vote could make the difference. It is said to require 75%-80% to be deemed reflective of consensus.

Thank you,

A watered-down version of the proposed policy against censorship is now open for voting. Will you knidly review the policy and make your opinions known? Thank you very much. Loom91 10:28, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your user page

[edit]

In the course of fixing up userboxes which were moved under The German Solution I noticed that your user-page appeared to be broken. I have attempted to fix it up, but there is a stray "/" which I am unable to diagnose. Sorry, but I tried… HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 10:43, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
