Template:User admin
Smells, and looks, like a "userbox". Additionally the formatting is broken, and just plain wrong. Conrad.Irwin 22:16, 10 June 2010 (UTC)


 * I think of userboxes are being useless, whereas this would make it so you don't have to brag about being an admin on your userpage... this one is at least useful. — [&#32;R·I·C&#32;] opiaterein — 22:42, 10 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes... It is useful and if it got deleted, I would probably just say that I'm an administrator without using that box. —Internoob (Disc•Cont) 03:10, 11 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmmmm....perhaps it could use some work, but I wonder if it might be worth keeping, as it is relevant information. A number of admins proclaim the fact on their user page (including myself), which makes one suspect that they think it useful information for a viewer.  However, it certainly is a userbox, and so this might require a larger discussion.  -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 03:21, 11 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Instead of banning all userboxes from the get-go, wouldn't it be more useful to set some good rules about what kind of userboxes are allowed and which aren't? I think this one instance would be very useful. —CodeCat 09:56, 11 June 2010 (UTC)


 * delete... sorry but I don't see *any* use in this one. -- Prince Kassad 09:59, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Reluctant delete, although I've never seen this magical policy about user boxes being banned other than we're likely to get a drip drip effect of less and less relevant user boxes... a bit like phrasebook entries now I think of it. Mglovesfun (talk) 14:09, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Just for reference, since you (Martin) say you haven't seen it and Codecat (above) seems to think there isn't one, the present policy is at [[WT:UBV]]. &#x200b;—msh210℠ 18:58, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Deleted, WT:UBV still applies. Per CodeCat, change policy first, and this is not the place to do that. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:19, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
