Template talk:User please be nice

I had this template on my page originally, but I removed it because it says "this user does not understand mean people". Doesn't being nice encompass understanding why people are mean sometimes? :) Ashibaka tock 02:04, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Colour Change

Hi

I got wrapped on the knuckles because I didn't open a discussion about a proposed colour change for this user box. I understand that this change will affect everyone who uses this userbox.

So, I would like to propose a colour change from the current faded pink, to a more suitable set. I propose to use: [1]

Symbol background: hex colour #CC00FF
User box background: hex colour #E066FF

Both of these colours are shades of purple, and I have chosen these to reflect the "peaceful" nature. I don't know about anyone else, but I certainly associate purple with peace. Second, I wanted the user boxes to stand out, not all look so similar. I had a lot of faded pink userboxes and just wanted to review the use of colours, in particular this one.

Comments please? can a consensus be reached? all those in favour of a colour change, please say so now. Many thanks, δ²_(Talk) 04:59, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, thanks for opening discussion and accepting the revert of your change. I appreciate that it may be construed as 'minor' since it's only a colour change, although I disagree with being WP:BOLD on this one since it will affect numerous editors and their associated userspace. As to a 'wrap on the knuckles' it really wasn't intended as such and I apologise if that's how it felt: I merely meant to remind you of the importance of consensus for wide-scale changes such as this. On the issue at hand: I agree a colour change would be helpful (though not necessary) but would far prefer something more positive (e.g. green, white, blue -> i.e. symbols of peace and harmony) than purple (which is often associated with royalty). What do you think? Coldmachine^Talk 23:02, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
