Userbox containers

Check out Template:Userboxtop, I think this is what you're looking for. BigNate37_(T) 06:57, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

• I am more of looking for a plain text editor so I can add it to my table for userboxes as a heading.Lord of Dorkness 07:01, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Did you know?

• Why do hamburgers have ham in the name if they're made with beef? Because ham doesn't specifically refer to pigs, although it is most frequently used as thus. BigNate37_(T) 18:05, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

• That there's a sign like this on the Golden Gate Bridge? BigNate37_(T) 22:00, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

• That there's a Simple English Wikipedia? On the front page, they have a link for Agriculture (growing crops) and Architecture (buildings). BigNate37_(T) 18:28, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. But...

...I've added the "{{prod}}" template to your user page (User:Lord of Dorkness), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy).

Please note that the purpose of a user page is not as personal homepage or used as a general webhosting service, but as way for active editors of Wikipedia to introduce themselves to other editors. If you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues here or on my user talk page. You may remove the deletion notice, and the page will not be deleted for the moment, but note that it may still be sent to Miscellany for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

If you wish to contribute directly to Wikipedia and your page has already been deleted, you can ask any admin to undelete and restore it: if necessary, leave me a message and I'll pass on your request. To begin editing, here are some pages that you might find helpful:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Don't write about yourself
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Manual of Style

Thank you, and happy editing. Calton | Talk 08:02, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

User:Lord of Dorkness/Sandbox

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article User:Lord of Dorkness/Sandbox, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on [[Talk:User:Lord of Dorkness/Sandbox|its talk page]]. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
