Userboxes are sometimes deleted by administrators if there are thought to be valid reasons for their removal from Misplaced Pages. However, some userboxes may be inappropriately deleted. Misplaced Pages:Deletion review/Userbox debates considers appeals to restore userboxes that have been deleted. It also considers disputed decisions made in deletion-related fora. Before using the Review, please read Misplaced Pages:Deletion policy and Misplaced Pages:Undeletion policy.
Category:User undeletion lists a number of administrators who are prepared to honour good faith requests for the restoration of deleted content to your user space, for example if you want to work up a more encyclopaedic article. This does not require deletion review, you can ask one of them directly (or post a request at the administrators' noticeboard).
Purpose
|
This process is about userboxes, not about people. If you feel that an administrator is routinely deleting userboxes prematurely, or otherwise abusing their powers, please discuss the matter on the user's talk page, or at Misplaced Pages talk:Administrators.
If you nominate a page here, be sure to make a note on the administrator's user talk page regarding your nomination. A template is available to make this easier:
{{subst:DRVU note|section heading}} ~~~~
Similarly, if you are a administrator and a page you deleted is subsequently undeleted, please don't take it as an attack.
Please take general discussion to the talk page.
Speedy deletions of templates can be done by administrators under Misplaced Pages:Criteria for speedy deletion if the template falls into this category (often referred to as T1): Templates that are divisive and inflammatory.
The following is a proposed T2, but has not become stable: Templates designed for user pages that express personal beliefs, ideologies, ethical convictions, or viewpoints on controversial issues. (as of 15:37, 13 May 2006 (UTC)) |
