Attn Please click edit next to this header to read this post as my examples are screwed up outside of edit mode.

I was looking into putting userboxes on my userpage. But I would like them enclosed in a userbox box. The only template that I have seen makes them appear in a vertical column like this ([   U     ]=Userbox)- ______________ | TEXT HERE | |           | |[    U     ]| |[   U     ]| |[   U     ]| |[   U     ]| |____________|

I would like a template thay encases them horizontally instead of vertically so like this-

__________________________________________________ |                  TEXT  HERE                   | |                                               | |[     U   ] [    U    ] [    U     ] [     U   ]| |________________________________________________|

Could someone either refer me to an existing one or create me one if they have the expertise? Wikipenguin 8 (talk) 19:18, 10 August 2015 (UTC)


 * One option for grouping userboxes horizontally is to use a table. I've also seen people use the and  templates to group their userboxes, thought that by default will only show the heading, not the userboxes themselves. Finally, the  template also offers some options that would allow you to group the userboxes horizontally. Huon (talk) 19:40, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Deletion criteria
You tagged Lebanese Government Watch for deletion, using the tag. The article was about a website, therefore it was not an autobiography. And, while Wikipedia discourages autobiographies, they are not outright forbidden. Please use proper deletion criteria when tagging articles for deletion.

 * Hi, I noticed that next to it, there was a link for legit criteria unlike mine so I chose g11 and replaced it. I thought it was an autobio. because the website was their username, I guess it could go either way. But thanks for letting me know that they are just discouraged. Im new here so Im still learning thanks again WikiDan61. Wikipenguin 8 (talk) 19:57, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
