Can someone make a userbox on the Portuguese Wikipedia?

[edit]
<!-- Since in the [[Portuguese Wikipedia]], from [[:pt:Wikipédia:Votações/Necessidade de registo para editar a Wikipédia lusófona|October 2020 and now on, now IPs and/or temporary accounts]] cannot edit on ptwiki (very funny since the new temporary accounts are also in ptwiki but still cannot edit)  If the one who wants to make the userbox doesn't know how to make a userbox in the Portuguese Wikipedia here:  Here a translation of some parts of the documentation of the [[pt:Predefinição:Userbox/doc|Userbox template's documentation]] from portuguese to english 

=== Use ===

{{Userbox
| posição     = 
| t-borda     = 
| c-borda     = 
| al-id       = 
| l-id        =

If you had read this make a userbox that looks like this

 Not done You'll need to make this request on Portuguese Wikipedia. I mean, someone might do it for you, but it's not normal to cross-wiki edit upon request - RichT|C|E-Mail 12:42, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Inquiry regarding userbox placement

[edit]
Wikitext userbox where used
{{User:YeBoy371/Userboxes/Pocketknife}}
This user is a pocketknife owner.

I've successfully created a userbox, but which category and gallery pages should I place it on? YeBoy371 (talk) 02:36, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Look at WP:Userboxes/Galleries for galleries and the subcats of Category:Userboxes for categories (although that one takes a while to search).🫀 Crash // Organhaver (talk to me, maybe?) 16:25, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:User pro-anon & Template:User anti-anon

[edit]

These two should probably

a) change names / be moved, since "anon", "anonymous editing" and "ip editing" are no longer things
b) have their language and links reviewed. The "anti" one is probably okay as-is, while the "pro" one should probably be rephrased to argue temporary account users should retain the right to edit Wikipedia, or some such.

I made some userboxes! What now?

[edit]

Hi all! I've made the following userboxes to supplement my userpage recently:

Wikitext userbox where used
{{User:MEN KISSING/userboxes/plurality}}
Two silhouettes popping out of a cartoon headThis user is plural.
linked pages
{{User:MEN KISSING/userboxes/doesnt listen to music}}
Red circle with left slash and musical noteThis user doesn't listen to music all that much.
linked pages
{{User:MEN KISSING/userboxes/indie games}}
This user likes indie games.
linked pages
{{User:MEN KISSING/userboxes/Caves of Qud NSB}}
Noto Emoji v2.034 1fa91This user is a member of the newly sentient beings faction.
linked pages

Mostly just wondering if I've done everything right here, as it is my first foray into userbox stuff and I may be interested in doing more.

  • Should I try and categorize these and add them to galleries by myself? The first one I am unsure where it should even go. Plurality relates to D.I.D., but the label of it can be considered separate from the disorder, so I don't think it belongs in /Health/Mental.
  • Is the music one okay? I hope it doesn't come across as overly negative.
  • Is the Caves of Qud one too niche? It's rather specific, but I'd be willing to make a more generic version too.
  • Have I made any egregious technical or stylistic mishaps? I think they look pretty and they seem to work, but I wouldn't know.

  1. I honestly have no clue where this one would go, maybe Wikipedia:Userboxes/Life#Miscellaneous.
  2. I think this is fine, as it does not violate WP:UBDIVISIVE.
  3. There are some very niche userboxes already, so that should be fine.
  4. I'm not seeing any technical issues with any of them, but I do have one recommendation. I notice that in the "info" parameter, you are including the text as the default value of the input. I think this is unnecessary as this means that any inputs to the template will replace the entire text field. I recommend removing the input code. For example, in User:MEN KISSING/userboxes/doesnt listen to music, |info={{{1|This user doesn't listen to music all that much.}}} would become |info=This user doesn't listen to music all that much. - ZLEA TǀC 02:48, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Ah, I put that in the plurality one because wanted the one I use on my user page to have slightly different and more specific text than the version I thought others would want. So I built in the ability to override the text. Although, now that I think about it, that would result in a difference in presentation since the wikilink's formatting is in the default text.
    The plurality userbox is the one I made first, and I used it as a base for the other three, so that's why it's in all four of them. In retrospect it's sort of silly for all of them, so I'll change it. MEN KISSING (she/they) T - C - Email me! 03:39, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
