Request May 30, 2025

I'd like to reccomend 2 new userboxes. they're for algebra basically One says "This user is a lover of algebra, and probably does algebra every day." in a green font. The other says "This user ABSOLUTELY DESPISES algebra and thinks it should NOT EXIST AT ALL."

i put the userboxes in the page: User:ILikeMath1267/the2newuserboxesimade for the design i kinda want ILikeMath1267 (talk) 18:59, 30 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@ILikeMath1267: I see you put both the 2 userboxes on 1 page. If you want them to be able to be used by others, you would have to give each userbox it's own page.

Also, this isn't the right spot to post new userboxes you made. To share a userbox you made, you would post it here.

Create a better user box for Adopted by - Request - June 7, 2025

hello i would love to know how to create a userbox for Wikipedia.

I was trying to use the Adopted by userbox and it is not formatted properly so a bit gibberish.

I would love to have a user box that states:

Adopted by (username)

Appreciate any insights! thank you :) I&I22 (talk) 16:05, 7 June 2025 (UTC)I&I22[reply]

@I&I22: I might suggest using the template Template:User Adoptee.

If you don't mind me asking, how exactly doesn't Template:User Adopter work as intended? I would love some details so I could try to fix the issue.

-‪Fneskljvnl🪱 (Contributions, Talk) (stay silly forever) 18:42, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

O thank you so much! ok, please bear in mind that i am a bit new lol.....ok When I attempted to use the userbox, it turned out like so:

However, what I was trying to express is that: This user (aka me) I&I22 has been adopted by user GoldRomean. I tried to edit the userboxes and search for the correct one but have failed so far.

If there is a userbox I could use and add to my bio/user page that would be terrific!

Much appreciated :) I&I22 (talk) 17:56, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@I&I22: Using Template:User Adoptee with this text should work:

Uncyclopedia?

Heya! I was thinking about having a Uncyclopedia userbox!

For wikipedians who have an account on the parody of Wikipedia, known as Uncyclopedia!

{{Notice |image=Uncyclopedia logo notext.svg|small=yes|For those with comedic tastes, the [[Comedians|so-called non-experts]] at [[Uncyclopedia]] have an article about '''''[https://en.uncyclopedia.co/wiki/{{urlencode:{{{1}}}|WIKI}} {{{1}}}''''']}}

Anonymous User

This is a request from Thai Wikipedia, in collaboration with @Geonuch:. After reviewing a number of existing userboxes and conceptual approaches, including:

we believe there is a need to create a new, dedicated userbox.

The concept for this userbox is to represent registered users who have chosen a unique, newly created username exclusively for use on Wikimedia projects—one that will not be reused or linked to any external identity. These users will not participate in offline events or disclose any personally identifiable information through their accounts, for security and privacy reasons.

Such users typically avoid using most userboxes, with a few exceptions—such as those indicating administrative roles or support for processes like DYK, GA, or FA.

Ideally, this userbox would be introduced during the account registration process and categorized accordingly, so that organizers of outreach or offline events can better recognize and respect this group of users. As more users adopt this approach, we hope that Wikimedia project communities will develop more inclusive practices to support them.

We believe this idea has relevance beyond Thailand, especially in jurisdictions where press freedom and personal security cannot be taken for granted.

--Taweetham (talk) 01:44, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure one of us could create a userbox, but changes to the registration process are probably above this page's pay grade. Clarinetguy097 (talk) 04:54, 7 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Clarinetguy097 and Geonuch: Thank you for you reply. We wish to see good graphic design from here. All the rest will be taken care of by our volunteers on Thai Wikipedia. Comments and questions are nevertheless still welcome on the proposal. --Taweetham (talk) 06:01, 7 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
