The result of the discussion was delete. Arguments that this should have been at MFD are noted. However, Templates for discussion is not a policy or guideline, so that should make it easy to ignore all rules here. – Novem Linguae (talk) 16:34, 14 July 2023 (UTC) Inherently problematic - we should not be making it easier for minors to self-identify as minors. Even if this does not list a specific age, it puts people at risk for targeting in a much more direct way than the standard age templates, which are fairly easily oversightable. Wikipedia is not censored, but neither should we host templates that pose potential real world issues. TonyBallioni (talk) 19:51, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Under18


 * I did not consider that. I suppose I just thought it was best for my own use. ~ AlaskaGal~ ^_^ 19:58, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * And you have your birthday listed on your user page as well? Come on. Poster child for why not to have this template... —DIYeditor (talk) 05:42, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Barkeep49 (talk) 19:59, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment: TonyBallioni, aren't userboxes discussed at WP:MFD per the instructions of what not to propose for discussion here? Frietjes (talk) 21:07, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * You know, Twinkle sent it here. I don't do MfD or TfD and don't really think it matters where it is discussed. I just think this should be deleted. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:14, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * there is a pull-down menu in Twinkle that allows you to select MfD instead of TfD. Frietjes (talk) 21:33, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * If you hover over the little question mark, it says the default selection is the most appropriate based on namespace. Again - this doesn't matter as the guidance is not a policy and the community can decide to ignore it even if it was. In the future, I'll keep it in mind, but I don't see any point in moving this to MfD for the sake of process when you can have a perfectly valid community discussion here that reaches a consensus. TonyBallioni (talk) 02:23, 8 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Relist at MFD, as is standard for user boxes (it's annoying, I know; I've made this mistake many times myself with userboxes that do not follow WP:UBXNS). If it is kept, it must be moved to "Template:User Under18" or "User/UBX:Under18" or a similar name, per that guideline. – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:40, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete these type of userboxes are very problematic with the oversight policy. — PerfectSoundWhatever  (t; c) 01:03, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete. I am all for bureaucracy, but I don't see any reason to procedurally move this to MFD just because it happens to be a UBX template. Primefac (talk) 08:32, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete this and anything like it. No good purpose, lots of downside. —DIYeditor (talk) 05:41, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
