[edit] Huh?

Why was this made? Æon Insane Ward 16:55, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

This article clarifies the possibility that there is no need for a complicated solution to the userbox issue. --NThurston 17:42, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

How exactly can this "solution" be considered a compromise? Aren't I Obscure? 20:43, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

The same way as the GUS is a compromise. The major difference in this compromise being that more userboxes would be allowed in Template:User than in the GUS, which is eminently reasonable. It also prevents the pending war developing from the merciless implementation of GUS from getting out of hand (which is why we compromise).--NThurston 20:54, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
GUS is a compromise between outright deletion of userboxes and leaving them in the template namespace. This proposal just wants to leave all the userboxes in the template namespace. In essence, userbox supporters get 100% of what they want and opponents get 0%. I think we may have different definitions of "compromise".Aren't I Obscure? 21:20, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
I will try to assume good faith, please bear with a veteran of the userbox wars. What you suggest is maintaining of the pre-userbox wars status quo. Since there were userbox wars, only ended by a compromise by all sides involved, on what grounds do you assume that returning to the conditions a large part of the editors and admins objected against will be accepted by them now? CharonX/talk 01:49, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

That was rejected quickly. This wouldn't work anyways. You know, we'd be back to free-speechers vs. userbox/POV deletionists. -Royalguard11TalkMy Desk 22:10, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

I've removed the premature rejected template; since this proposal is worthy of discussion. --SteveMcCluskey 01:34, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Worth discussing on what grounds? GUS is active and working, for the vast majority of users. It's a compromise, unlike this proposal. What do you expect to come of this? -- nae'blis 01:40, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
I'd rather leave that can of worms closed, we don't want to go back to pre WP:GUS - food for thoughts below. CharonX/talk 01:44, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
This is no compromise, just a return to how things used to be, and CharonX has shown (below) exactly what that was like. —Mira 01:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

It would be extremely helpful if someone could add links to when and where this proposal was considered and rejected by the community, if that is really true. --NThurston 14:28, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

It is being rejected, and has been rejected, right here on this page and across the project. You've obviously got enough knowledge to know what the situation once was; that was unacceptable to both sides of the "userbox wars". Most people have moved on, and trying to restart the controversy isn't going to fly. I'm sure if I'm wrong, someone besides the original proposer will correct me. That's how consensus works. -- nae'blis 15:34, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
I'm not trying to restart the controversy, for sure. However, it's not clear at all that SUS was rejected as a reasonable solution, and it is even less clear that GUS has been accepted as "policy" as Tony and Cyde are quick to claim. A few people have moved on to implementing the GUS, and I am committed to cooperating with them. However, I also predict that this will not make everybody happy, hence I am open to further improvements, one of which I believe could eventually be SUS. So, if you have knowledge of when and where this proposal was rejected, it would be helpful to document that here, so that 'if' this topic is reopened, we don't need to re-hash old ground. --NThurston 16:09, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
And being rejected just because Cyde says so doesn't count. --NThurston 16:11, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
I think you'll find that one thing Cyde and I agree on, is that we don't agree very often. I don't take his light red word as gospel on any account. :) -- nae'blis 20:17, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
See Wikipedia:Userboxes/Userbox location straw poll#Userbox pegboard. By my count, there is a clear consensus for moving controversial userboxes to userspace. —Andux␅ 19:58, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Maybe for controversial userboxes, but people are moving Automotive, for crying out loud. Anyway, that's only marginally related to this proposal, as most people are voting that way in the context of GUS (since the straw poll is a sub-page of GUS). But worth noting here. --NThurston 20:58, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Automotive is (arguably) unencyclopedic, which makes it fair game for deletionists; therefore, GUS. —Andux␅ 23:15, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Cyde didn't mark it as rejected the second time, I did. And I did so because of consensus reached on this talk page and in multiple other locations (this category looks like it contains many of those) that the old way was not acceptable, not because Cyde told me to. I just don't see what the difference is between this proposal and how things worked before WP:GUS. If you could explain the difference, that would be helpful. —Mira 20:32, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
A good start. However, there was never anything like a consensus "reached on this talk page" for anything, let alone that this policy has been rejected. It's these "multiple other locations" that I want to document here. So far, I have not seen ANY page where this policy (or one similar to it) was rejected based on a consensus. Just a lot of vague references to "we've been over this already." I admit that it is a real possibility, but want to document them here to prevent plowing new ground.
The primary difference from status quo ante would be to officially recognize that Template:User is protected in the same way that User: is protected. It is admittedly similar to the MUPP (which had very broad support, but I am to understand was not implemented because some vowed to never accept it, effectively blocking it's implementation) and other ideas that came up in the discussion. While I accept that GUS is being implemented, I can't convince myself that there was an appropriate consideration of a SUS proposal, nor that there was any perceived consensus to reject it. It is my observation is that the anti-userbox people (most of the 'Oppose' votes on MUPP voted on grounds of eliminating UBXs entirely, not on the proposed location) have not gained anything at all in this compromise. Under GUS, divisive and inflammatory userboxes will now flourish unless they violate a very narrow set of Wikipedia basics. The SUS or the MUPP could have been much more of a middle-ground compromise had the anti-UBX crowd worked within them to say, "OK, template is fine, but no truly inflammatory stuff." --NThurston 20:58, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Some food for your thoughts

I'm happy to see Doc is back, and I certainly hope there aren't any hard feelings - he's a good admin and editor, even though we locked our horns hard in the past. But I offered you food for your thoughts, not my ramblings, so let's take a look at the time before WP:GUS

(Note: I picked Tony and Doc for my special/logs fetch they had the most easily copy&pasted contents in their logs, both are quite good editor and admins, even if they can get on your nerves sometimes - but who doesn't?) This should have shown how badly we needed the compromise of WP:GUS. And before anyone claims these were the actions of rouge admins (not to be confused with the lime-green admins) the tally showed that every side had considerable following and quite reasonable arguments. So a compromise was found and made and everyone is happy or at least satified. CharonX/talk 01:44, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userbox virtual space

This is conceptually the same as the new userbox virtual space I, among others in various forms, suggested in May. Obviously, it didn't catch on back then, and it seems to have developed several former-fans-turned-foes today. I agree this is the most elegant theoretical "solution." However, the messy reality is that Jimbo released an oracle pointing to the hinterlands. We mortals simply try to divine its inner meaning and live our wikilives accordingly. I support putting this one to rest and moving on. Rfrisbietalk 22:22, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SUS template

Did anyone subst this template somewhere? I want to use it on my page (even if it was rejected). --WikiSlasher 11:33, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

This is just Cyde being himself again - trying to quash any opposing points of view so that he can claim consensus. If I can't find someone to undelete it, I can re-create it. --NThurston 14:06, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Un-reject

Despite repeated requests for those who placed the "rejected" tag on this project to document when and where this proposal was a) considered, and b) rejected with anything close to consensus, nothing has been provided. I still do not believe that this proposal was ever considered, hence it could not be rejected. The claim that is was rejected on this talk page is nonsensical, as anyone reading the comments above can see. --NThurston 21:01, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Oddly enough you let that tag stand up there for over a month and nobody bothered to remove it. The large majority agrees with the infeasability of it. Still if it is so important to you I'll let that slip - I think we can agree on the historical tag - putting aside meta-discussion there has be no real activity here for quite some time, so I think the historical talk is appopiate.
