Make this a User template

Are we allowed to make this an official Userbox template, in the form {{User DPwL}}, or is that not wantede for some reason? Can we just move it there, and will the redirect work for people who already put this userbox in their pages? J. Finkelstein 04:38, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Basically that's not wanted. It's a waste of resources to put userboxes like this in the template namespace. We have a subproject (/from templates) that deals with these userboxes clogging up time that should be spent writing the encyclopedia.--Commander Keane 08:46, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Changed "user" to "editor"

Hello, fellow editors ... I have changed

This user repairs links to disambi­guation pages

to

This editor repairs links to disambi­guation pages

If you object to the change, please comment here before you unilaterally revert it ... to my way of thinking, "editor" implies an active contributor, whereas "user" implies one who does not contribute very frequently, or at all ... OTOH, the terms are synonymous to Most People, users and editors alike, and I'm willing to go along with whatever Consensus holds sway.
