Userboxes Template:User Wikipedian for is part of WikiProject Userboxes. This means that the WikiProject has identified it as part of the userboxes system. WikiProject Userboxes itself is an attempt to improve, grow, and standardize Wikipedia's articles and templates related to the userbox system, used on many users' pages.

Should a description of the userbox's parameters (and how to use them) be included on the main page? Shrillpicc100 (talk) 21:13, 11 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That is, documentation (oops, forgot the word—and I'm a programmer!) Shrillpicc100 (talk) 01:47, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have implemented a slight change in the colour scheme of the userbox that is much better than the old and outdated purple/pink look. The new colour scheme closely matches the colour of wikipedia logo or website with its typical " grey/white" look. The new userbox now looks minimal and attractive at the same time.

If anyone has any issues or didn't like the colour change, Please discuss first and dont revert it back yet. Thank you.ShotgunMavericks (talk)

Update: I just got thanked by two wikipedian users for the change. They are "David Crayford" and "Filelakeshoe". Guess people like it!

The color scheme being "better" is your opinion. You also need consensus to change it per WP:CONSENSUS as this effects more than hundred user pages such as my own. I assume you don't know, but you can create your own. — JudeccaXIII (talk) 16:49, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend adding an Oxford comma to this template. —scarecroe (talk) 14:20, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There's already an optional parameter for that. It's unambiguous without one. MClay1 (talk) 05:04, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This template which has been at the top of User:Zero0000 for a long time showed a count which was low by several days. I deleted it and inserted it again. Now it shows the right count. I don't understand this. Zero^talk 02:31, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Can somebody please add the option to change the color of the text? Just like how we can currently change the color of the border and the background. Thank you :-) Dream Indigo 16:52, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A note: I have already added the parameter on Simple English Wikipedia and on Meta-Wiki like this:

| info-fc = {{{text|}}}

I tested it on my userpages and it works perfectly. I hope someone adds this string on enwiki as well, please :-) It defaults to black, so nobody will see an unwanted difference on their userpage. Dream Indigo 17:57, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again, I should have used {{edit fully-protected}}, but I didn't know it back then, so I added it now. Can you also add the option to change the alignment, please?

| info-a = {{{info-a|}}}

Thank you :) ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 20:53, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done I added | info-fc = {{{info-fc|}}} | info-a = {{{info-a|}}}. --Ahecht (TALK
