User:Brian1979/My Views

Hi!

This page is meant as a place to share my views on certain topics. It is in no way meant to cause conflict. These are my personal views -- I do not expect people to share them, nor do I judge people who think or believe differently.

A Bit On Conflict...
I believe that conflict is a good thing because it can bring change. Also, conflict can serve to ultimately solve problems. Conflict should never be shied away from -- yes, conflict may CAUSE problems in the short run, but its benifits far outweigh its potential drawbacks.

Userboxes
I believe that there isn't anything wrong with userboxes and that a userbox should only be deleted when it is truly offensive. It seems to me that there are a certain few users on Wikipedia (who shall remain unnamed) who simply do not approve of userboxes PERIOD and see it as some sort of personal crusade to get rid of them. In my opinion, these users would be better served trying to improve articles...and not wasting time trying to get non-offensive material deleted.
