I want my userpage to be only userboxes scaled up in a 2 column grid that takes up the entire width of the article. Currently I use a CSS hack using the scale property to achieve this. Unfortunately, it fails to take into account smaller resolutions entirely. Any Wikitext-smiths have a solution to my (frivolous) problem? -1ctinus📝🗨01:53, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the template recommendation. Is there a way to run a find/replace for tables? the String replace invoke methods failed for me. -1ctinus📝🗨23:29, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I finally figured out the solution, and it's really dumb. To make the replace work, I had to turn it into an HTML table, and to replace, I added these extremely hacky lines:
I had an idea, why not centralize all userboxes using "Userbox:" or "UB:"(Just like Wikipedia: or User:) and put the entire Userbox database to organize it a little. I made a simple Userbox: website for this idea And will make this my #1 priority (if you like it) Userbox:Hoster
The wording of the WP:UBX#Caution about image use subsection probably should be tweaked because fair use on Wikipedia is better referred to as non-free content because Wikipedia's non-free content use policy is actually more restrictive than fair use by design, and it's because of the this policy (WP:NFCC#9) that non-free images aren't allowed to be used in userboxes. You could actually argue that such a use would be allowed under "fair use", but that's not really what's relevant here. Using "non-free content" and "fair use content" interchangeably often leads to problems whenever such files are discussed because many mistakenly assume they're one and the same; so, it's better not to do so on policy/guideline pages whenever possible. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:02, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
