Hi. |
|
|
|
|
|
You might be aware that there has been some contention around the use of userboxes. There has also been a new ] added with regard to templates. |
|
|
|
|
|
A box you are using, ] was recently tagged as such. I've removed the tag, but would ask that you <nowiki>{{subst:}}</nowiki> the template. You may also wish to contribute to ] if you are not already. |

::The thing is, we've had quite a bit of disruption over the last few months around user boxes. Some from admins going a bit delete happy and pushing their agenda, some from new editors not understanding that the purpose of every action here is not to create an encyclopedia pushing ''their'' agenda. Even if you simply use <nowiki>{{subst:}}</nowiki> to make it plain text instead of a template, that would be really helpful. - ]]<span class="plainlinks"></span> 05:47, 11 February 2006 (UTC) |

==Your userpage was briefly delisted by a rogue admin== |
|
|
|
|
|
You have a userbox ] which links your userpage to ]. There is currently a movement to ban userboxes from Misplaced Pages which are shared and which create ]. Certain admins have taken it upon themselves to preemptively sabotage and/or delete such categories and template. Here is the ] which reported damage to yours, in which hundreds of userpages were delinked from categories without the users' knowledge. They have been stopped, barely, and the damage reverted— for now. |
|
|
|
|
|
There is a ], which if passed, will make required by policy the damage done to categories and templates such as '''User UN/United Nations Wikipedians'''. If you do not want this to happen, I urge you to vote '''Oppose.''' in the poll. Support is currently running at about 66%, and your vote could make the difference. It is said to require 75%-80% to be deemed reflective of consensus. |
