Request - February 13, 2024[edit]

I have a new idea someone could do, which is something to the effect of "This User has made such a poor contribution that it could be considered vandalism." I just had this Idea because I have definitely done it. Thanks, if you do it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by XCBRO172 (talkcontribs) 06:12, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds like that's right on the line of a good faith edit, and I'm not sure we want to appear to condone such behavior. Clarinetguy097 (talk) 19:20, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's alright, I wouldn't expect anyone to have to make a userbox for me. XCBRO172 (talk) 15:21, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Heyo! I just want one more userbox before I feel my collection is complete.

One that says 'This user only contributes to Wikipedia while wearing thigh-high socks' with an image of programming socks (preferably pink and white). MarinaTheRanger (talk) 15:10, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]


@MarinaTheRanger:  Done I couldn't find an image of thigh-high socks on Commons that I thought worked, so I hope that this is a suitable alternative.

Thanks, Komrade. It'll do. I was thinking I could photograph myself wearing them, then put it on commons. Would that work?
Thanks anyways from the Ranger from the Sea.
MarinaTheRanger (talk) 15:38, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, that should work. Just be aware that you'd need to release the image under a free license for it to be able to be used in a userbox. -- KomradeKalashnikov (talk) 15:43, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I would love to have five new user boxes. All userboxes in Polish. These are: - The first one for Edward Gierek. The text is: This user evaluates Edward Gierek's activities very positively. The image is a photo of Edward Gierek from his Wikipedia page. - The second one is for great-grandmother. The text is: This user has a great-grandmother who is still alive and well. The image is an image from the website: https://pl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babcia. - Third for Somaliland. The text is: This user supports the independence of Somaliland. The image is the flag of Somaliland. - Fourth for Tomaszów Mazowiecki. The text for it is: This user was born in Tomaszów Mazowiecki. - Fifth for Palestine. The text would look like this: This user supports Palestinian independence. The image shows the flag of Palestine. I would be very grateful if someone could do this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krzysztof Białas Gandalf (talkcontribs) 19:33, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have an idea for a userbox about the number 37, and how it appears almost everywhere. It would look like this:

37This user thinks that the number 37 appears way too much.

and the code for it would be
