There are already republican userboxes in the section Userboxes/Location/European_Union/United_Kingdom but there is no single type of British republican and I wanted to include boxes that better represent users like myself. The first design is for general republicans. I wanted to use neutral colours and symbols as republicans disagree on which flag to use, what to call a British republic and what type of republic it should be but I would be open to suggestions on how to brighten it up. The second design is for supporters of the pressure group Republic (political organisation). Third design refers to one of Republic's slogans (Citizen not subject).

My design is for the section Userboxes/Politics/Issues.

This userbox could be useful for those who use the Awesome Window Manager. This is my first custom UBX; I hope it's okay but let me know if anything should be changed or if I can just go ahead and add it to the Software UBX page. —Myoglobin (talk) 23:48, 11 March 2016 (UTC)Myoglobin
 * Go ahead! Looks fine. Eman 235 / talk  01:10, 12 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Dear Myoglobin,
 * Your first userbox looks great; well done!
 * Sometimes, I like to centre the text, and add a 'new line' tag to separate the main topic to its own, dedicated line, thereby giving it more prominence; as an example, see the userbox I added above, for users who admire the works of Fernando Pessoa. In your case, I daresay the product name Awesome Window Manager would stand out better if treated this way, but that's only my own, subjective preference; you (and many others) might prefer to keep it as you first created it, which is obviously fine. In any case, keep up the good work!
 * With kind regards;
 * Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(guestbook) 08:52, 12 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I was wondering how to do that.  I changed the UBX to have centered text, and I'll be adding it to "Other Software" for now, though I might move it later if necessary (e.g. into a new section on Window Managers)
 * Myoglobin (talk) 14:25, 12 March 2016 (UTC)Myoglobin
 * I agree with Patrick. Look at the code for any of my boxes above (Mar 7 entry) and you will see I frequently use the new line tag. - Tim D. Williamson yak-yak 14:28, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
 * One last question: Do  tags need to be closed?  I didn't on this UBX and it looks fine. I just want to use best practices.
 * Myoglobin (talk) 14:34, 12 March 2016 (UTC)Myoglobin
 * Thanks again!  helped, but the  makes it look even better! Myoglobin (talk) 17:29, 12 March 2016 (UTC)Myoglobin

Dear Myoglobin, You're most welcome; I am always happy to help where/when I can. I am really glad you like it with centering, as I think your userbox now looks even cooler! Seriously though, thank you for tolerating the liberty I took in changing your code a few minutes ago. (I also attempted to add an earlier version of the present explanation when it was deleted by an edit conflict; however these things happen. ) You will have noticed that, in addition to adding the centering clauses, I also changed the way the code is presented, as this makes it easier on the eye and also helps to lay out the code with greater clarity, at least to my eye. Also, a lot of userboxes are laid out in this way, and I daresay it seems to have become one of those established practices that one might call 'best'. However, since these things are really subjective, please feel free to revert my edit if you preferred the way you had laid out your code first time round, and please forgive me for intervening to this extent. Also, you're quite right: one really ought to close pairs of breaks: first   , then    ; however, since I often forget to close the second in a pair (because they're not always used in pairs, of course), it's just as well that it works without the '/'. With kind regards; Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(guestbook) 18:04, 12 March 2016 (UTC) ''' works as well. Eman 235 / talk 00:32, 13 March 2016 (UTC) ." My experience has been that, as Eman 235  said,   works. Oh, and that space between the br and the /''' is crucial. - Tim D. Williamson yak-yak
 * No problem with your code edit! I'm learning, so I need all the help I can get. Thanks!
 * About  : Turns out the   tag is NOT supposed to be ended by a   !  This MDN page states that it should not be an ended tag.  So, I guess just one   is fine by itself! Myoglobin (talk) 00:10, 13 March 2016 (UTC)Myoglobin
 * I believe '''
 * Well, In that case, I can only apologise for misleading you, based on my assumption that all these tags work on the same syntax. As you can see, we're all learning, all the time.
 * With kind regards;
 * Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(guestbook) 01:17, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * According to W3, "In HTML, the    tag has no end tag. In XHTML, the     tag must be properly closed, like this: '''
 * I agree with that, but I would like to point out that W3Schools is not the same as W3C, so this might be a more direct source. Myoglobin (talk) 02:35, 13 March 2016 (UTC)Myoglobin

I think that would be great if many Pokémon can get some favorite spotlight with the userbox that I've made just recently. I hope you're okay with this new addition. I used Pikachu as the prime example here, but you can put any Pokémon species that you like! —  Wind Vee  19:06, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Recently I've created a new userbox, this time it's for anyone who likes Sunset Shimmer of My Little Pony: Equestria Girls series, and also for those who are... not proud of their past mistakes, so I think it would fit in. If you're a female, you can replace both him and his to her. I hope this userbox can bring a good addition for every MLP fans and atoners around. —  Wind Vee  15:39, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

—ShadowDragon343 (talk) 07:44, 14 March 2016 (UTC) This is my first userbox. It's meant to look like the campaign signs. For Trumpians to show that your aboard the Trump Train!!!
 * Eeeeeeh. Fairly sure that UBs supporting candidates are not allowed, per the rules against political propaganda and advocacy. Okay. So, it seems that political UBs are OK-but there are 3 other UBs about supporting Trump. Search the gallery before you make a UB. Hobbes Novakoff (talk) 21:40, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

I just decided to try making a userbox, because the ones for Ásatrú weren't quite my style. So this is my first try at making a userbox. Do you think this one could work out? (The picture I used is mine, so there are no copyright issues.)

Couldn't find a Userbox for myself with this in it, so I learned how to make one myself. Any comment, etc? —Fritzmann2002 18:47, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
 * I am all for collaboration— what about using some kind of logo to convey the idea rather than high-contrast red and blue (which are a bit visually hard on the eyes)? I can probably either identify some for you or come up with one myself.  Mssg me on my talk page if interested in that! KDS4444 (talk) 08:37, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

With Hovercards being considered for rolling out as the default across a number of Wikis (providing there's enough broad support from everyone), I thought one way to show that support was by a colourful userbox. I couldn't find a way to get an internal link to work to a user's Preference page for Beta features - maybe someone else can help with that? Happy to see it tweaked, then added to WP:Userboxes/Wikipedia/Miscellaneous But if you're not amongst the 46,000 users currently taking advantage of a better browsing/linking experience, do give it a try. . and spread the word with a Userbox! Parkywiki (talk) 12:08, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't object to the use of color, but that red on green is what makes my eyes ache... Would you consider a different color scheme that is less, well, "stabby"? Thanks! KDS4444 (talk) 08:33, 20 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Agree that the color scheme is hard on the eyes. It would likely be considered to be non-accessible to some who are color blind as there is very little contrast between the text and the background. The concept behind this userbox is great! Etamni &#124; &#9993; &#124; ✓ 05:45, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

Allows users to made a standardized declaration of a conflict of interest on their userpage in accordance with WP:DISCLOSE instead of writing out a statement (which many new users may not feel confident about doing). Holds up to nine articles that are COI articles for the user, and would allow the user to remove a talkpage warning regarding COIs without violating any COI policies. —KDS4444 (talk) 08:30, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Looks good! Etamni &#124; &#9993; &#124; ✓ 05:43, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
 * You like? Thank you!  Am hopeful this tag will eventually receive wide usage, and I should probably work on internationalizing it.  But it is good to know that someone read over it and liked it.  That matters.  I am grateful.  KDS4444 (talk) 14:21, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

A couple of Rick and Morty userboxes reflecting both a major faction in the second season of Rick and Morty and the fan-created opposing group of "Amnesty Intergalactic" that seeks to free the dissenting, anti-Federation character Rick Sanchez.

The second version, instead of "this user," inserts the name of the user that includes it on their page, as suggested at WP:Userboxes. It comes up as "Userboxes" here. Lwarrenwiki (talk) 17:56, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
