Occupations
I am thinking a lot of these 'professions' are not truly work in nature, ie. podcaster, beach bum, etc. Maybe they should be moved? Cahk 00:35, 28 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I agree, many of the userboxes in the "Pilot" category are hobbyists, students, wannabes, etc., not professionally engaged in flying as a career. They should be moved to "General Hobbies and Interests", IMO. - JGHowes 23:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

I am willing to take the military userboxes into my userspace, per WP:GUS. Just let me know and userfy it into User:PHDrillSergeant/Userboxes/. ~  Porphyric Hemophiliac   §  14:59, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Diplomat box
Why does the diplomat Userbox have a picture of a cookie on it?--Unionhawk (talk) 23:33, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * An excellent question! According to the history page for that userbox the person who created it, User:Mikebar said "US diplomats informally called "cookie pushers"". He claims that he is one. Of interest there is a rather odd Wikipedia article about that: Cookie Pusher that claims the term goes back to 1924. - Ahunt (talk) 00:33, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Aspiring Lawyer
Request: Would someone please be kind enough to make a userbox for aspiring Lawyer. Thank you very much for your help. In the mean time, I will try to figure out how the create a userbox. Thanks again! --Paulsprecker (talk) 00:32, 21 October 2008 (UTC)


 * No problem - I have made one up and added it to the page at Userboxes/Profession - Ahunt (talk) 12:24, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Nuclear Professional
I work at a nuclear power plant. We have a lot of people that do in this country. There are many positions working for a nuclear power plant: operator, mechanic, I&C, health physics, engineering, management, etc, etc. But for now, to keep it simple, would be nice to have a userbox for Nuclear Professional. Thank you. Gilawson (talk) 12:04, 6 May 2010 (UTC)


 * That is an interesting subject. I made up a box - let me know what you think. Feel free to edit it if you like:

 * Thank you Ahunt! That is SWEET! I used it straight away once I saw it. I wish I knew how to edit it. I dunno what I would change, but I think it would be fun to edit/create userboxes. Thanks for your time and help! Gilawson (talk) 17:36, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Glad to hear that you like it. There are complete instructions on how to edit the template at Userboxes or you can let me know what changes or new boxes you would like. - Ahunt (talk) 20:10, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

New Userboxes
People, I have added some of my created templates : Template:Agricultural engineer, and Template:Civil engineer. Do you guys think that these should be in place, or just ommited for now? Abhijay  Let's have a chat, my friend.  01:26, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

And P.S. anybody can write on my message page if they want help to create a userbox, because I have the expertise. Abhijay  Let's have a chat, my friend.  01:27, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks a bunch Ahunt! Abhijay Talk?/Deeds  06:51, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

One missing
I can only find Architect, but nothing on Landscape architecture. It would be nice if somebody created one, also. I am using an architect box, but it is not quite the same, you know. Makes a lot of confusion. Please anyone... I don´t know how, myself. Hafspajen (talk) 13:43, 19 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I can make that for you. Is there an image available that you thing for illustrate this? - Ahunt (talk) 20:36, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

first responder?
Can we have a generic first responder choice, like the one below, for those who would wish to be generic about their profession? ihafez talk 15:11, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
