MarioWiki talk:Userboxes

Are you (Porplemontage) going to add templates later, or is it up to the rest of us? Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 16:51, 4 August 2006 (EDT)

I tried making one. It didn't really work too well. H K

I'm not going to make any right now. Users who know about userboxes can add their own templates. Things like favorite characters, favorite games, consoles owned, Nintendo Power subscriber, etc. Woo. -- Steve (talk) 17:21, 4 August 2006 (EDT)

Lots of excitement in that statement. H K

Userboxes/Games shows all templates Wikpedia has. I'll copy some and modify them for use later, or someone else can go ahead and start. Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 17:56, 4 August 2006 (EDT)

We're not going to use templates and categories. Hold on and I'll show how we'll do it. -- Steve (talk) 23:38, 4 August 2006 (EDT)
 * As long as we can move the page contents so my work is not all for naught, I'd love to see the new system. :D Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 23:43, 4 August 2006 (EDT)

In Need of Explanation!
Even though I figured out the CSS, I have no clue how you just did that. Care to explain? :P Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 00:01, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
 * Wait, I think I get it from seeing Template:Userbox. The stuff between is replaced by the lines separated by | s in the template...very useful feature, better than the categories/templates that have just been deleted (00:06, 5 August 2006 (EDT)). Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 00:04, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
 * Yeah, it's all about changing the variables. -- Steve (talk) 00:12, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
 * Is it possible to add pictures using this? Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 00:29, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
 * ...Answered my own question again. Create another template with an image line! Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 00:31, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
 * ...Ah, excellent. can take images...good thing I figured that out before I created the page.

Awesome. Except the template is for displaying the userbox on this page, but the source code is supposed to use the  template, which is used in the actual towers. -- Steve (talk) 07:59, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
 * I checked the penultimate diffs, you'll see plenty more today. :) Wayoshi ( T&middot;</tt>C&middot;</tt>@ ) 11:13, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
 * Why did you remove the sample template? I'm going to fix the page to show how I want it done so please follow my standards. -- Steve (talk) 13:34, 5 August 2006 (EDT)

Templating
Why not templating the userboxes? Now you need to copy all that codes and stuff and your userpage looks like crap when you edit... so, why not templating? (Maybe this is another dumb idea i got, but...) /It's-a me, Smeedel. / Talk - Contribs - You 12:42, 5 August 2006 (EDT)

No templating. And I don't want users creating their own userbox templates. Just drop the code on your page please. -- Steve (talk) 13:33, 5 August 2006 (EDT)
