Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Userboxes/Pets
Appearance
Boxes on this topic are all but userfied. The remaining boxes can be easily moved. Rfrisbietalk 18:51, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Comment: The majority of “pet” userboxes have been moved to userspace. These and the boxes that remain in templatespace all are listed at User:Rfrisbie/Userboxes/Pets per WP:GUS. If the consensus is to keep this page as part of the Wikipedia:Userboxes gallery, then I believe the related boxes should be moved back to templatespace. If the consensus is to delete this page, then the vast majority of the other life/interest/etc. gallery pages and their boxes probably should go the way of WP:GUS as well. If no consensus is reached, then there you have it…another day in the life of userboxes. Rfrisbietalk 18:51, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep (and apparently hence move boxes back to template space). Ian¹³/t 19:12, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep per Ian. - LA @ 20:54, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Question:So the four templates left are going to be Germanized Real Soon Now™? I'm just curious why you nominated this before clearing it out entirely, and want to make sure I understand what's going on here. -- nae'blis 21:12, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- This WP:GUS thing is still very ambiguous. I'm "calling the question" to find out if this page is "Good to go"™ or should be resurrected. Rfrisbietalk 21:18, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Good to know. Delete, then, as all non-encyclopedic userboxes should be in userspace. No binding decisions, though. -- nae'blis 04:41, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

- Keep. However, this section should really be expanded. Bibliomaniac15 21:52, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Abstain I won't mind either way - WP:GUS is a means to end the userbox debate, but if the people who pressed for the removal of boxes (from templatespace or otherwise) changed their mind I won't complain. If not, WP:GUS works fine too. CharonX/talk 23:14, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete I think at this point, it's time to keep moving forward with WP:GUS, not go back. —Mira 00:49, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. (Agreeing with Ian, above.) Quote:"It should be noted that use of [userboxes related to beliefs, ideologies, viewpoints on controversial issues, and ethical convictions] is strongly discouraged at Wikipedia, and it is likely that very soon all these userboxes will be deleted or moved to userspace. Their use and creation is not recommended at this time." - Wikipedia:Jimbo on Userboxes. I don't think that Wikipedia:Userboxes/Pets meets any of those criteria. WP:GUS is not for this kind of deletion. - Jc37 01:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
*Keep, galleries are useful; seee Wikipedia:Userboxes/Sexuality where all the ubxen have been GUSified mainly to MiraLuka's space. ~ c. tales *talk* 02:33, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- Oops. -wipes egg off face- Delete becasue the gallery can be in userspace. ~ c. tales *talk* 02:37, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:GUS, now that these are (rightfully) in userspace as they are unrelated to the encyclopedia, we need to get rid of the projectspace links. --Cyde Weys 04:47, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:GUS, assuming someone feels like userfying those last four boxes. BryanG(talk) 04:54, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
