We should user Userbox: (or UB:) as a centralized area for people to host userboxes and so that commonly used ones (like babel) can just be used by doing Userbox:babel, it'd also look a lot nicer

See WP:UBXNS for three different options that already exist. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:40, 11 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Yes, but a proper Userbox: or UB: would be more organized and efficient, Userbox:[example] instead of User:[example]/[example]/userbox. In the end it's mostly for a more efficient database for userboxes User:BronMeat_talk 07:06, 14 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello, are there any standards on organization of Userboxes in Userbox Galleries in the Wikipedia namespace? I want to add some userboxes to one of them myself and I'm a bit worried that I might do something wrong.

Edit: Never mind, I wrote that when I didn't know how I was supposed to do so. But I am still curious.

You see, this used to be a normal userbox I made. It looked great, it had two squares on each side stacked on top of each other, then in the middle was the "this user likes Microsoft blah blah blah", but what happened??? It looks messed up and stretched, the same goes for the other Microsoft userboxes I made that incorporate the logo. I would love it if anyone can help me figure out what is going on.

Trilletrollet accidentally broke {{Userbox-m}}. I have reverted their changes. That template doesn't have documentation explaining what it is for, so I don't know if you are using it correctly in your userbox. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:32, 19 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you! It's back to normal now.

Sorry if there's a better place to ask this, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Userboxes/New Userboxes and Wikipedia:WikiProject Userboxes/Ideas didn't seem like the right places to ask. 137a (talk • edits) 18:05, 19 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Same for User:Clarinetguy097/Userboxes/User shipping. Shipping is a fandom thing. 🫀 Crash // Organhaver ( it / he | talk to me, maybe? ) 18:58, 19 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Oh, for galleries, I have no clue. 🫀 Crash // Organhaver ( it / he | talk to me, maybe? ) 18:59, 19 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Maybe a new section under Wikipedia:Userboxes/Interests could be added, titled "Fandom" or "Fan culture"? 137a (talk • edits) 19:26, 19 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Anyone interested should look at Template talk:Userbox-level and Template:Userbox-level/testcases to help decide if TemplateStyles should be used for dark mode coloring. Axolitl (talk | contribs) 20:37, 20 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Dark mode supports for userboxes needs to be improved overall IMO. Hason-LEK-SIN ● 💬 ● 🧱 ● 🧪 06:32, 30 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
