Template:User browser
This serves no purpose. Everyone who uses Wikipedia is using a browser. If you wanna specify IE or Firefox or Netscape then that's cool, but this is just stupid. Stuberesky 19:47, 23 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete of course, it's a userbox – Gurch 21:34, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep of course, it's a userbox. Besides, eventually word processors and other programs may gain the ability to go online and edit online files like wikipedia. i think Microsoft Word can do this as of Version 10 (2002/XP).

 * Oh. I thought "it's a userbox" was an argument in favour of deletion. Weren't they all moved to userspace a while back, and the creation of new ones in template space discouraged? This isn't in userspace, so is there a good reason why it hasn't been moved yet? Or was it moved, but someone put it back? I should follow these things more closely – Gurch 23:10, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Its a userbox that states the obvious. No matter what it is, word processer, IE, etc, it is a browser if it displays the web content.  Navou   talk  02:01, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * As one of the great protectors of userboxes, I must say defer to TFD. You're in the wrong arena. In the meantime, I'll see if anyone want to userfy it. -Royalguard11 (Talk·Desk·Review Me!) 02:17, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Faulty Nomination / Speedy Close as already said by Roalguard11 above, this is in templatespace and thus its nomination belongs at WP:TfD. If properly nominated there I'd suggest to userfy the template (see WP:UBM). Charon X /talk 02:40, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Faulty nom, but keep. Not just stupid; rather entertaining actually.  ♥ Fr  ed  il  04:20, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
