- Keep: The emerging compromise from what I understand is that we keep userboxes to the tune of "This user is a Democrat" but delete userboxes to the tune of "This user thinks that George W. Bush is a shithe@d." Fears of red spread aside, there are a lot of mainstream communist political parties in the world and it seems reasonable to have a userbox for this. I'd vote delete on "This user thinks the bourgeoisie should be lined up and shot." For me its not a "Wiki-freedom of speech" issue, but a identification issue to help users determine the potential biases of a user. savidan(talk) (e@) 04:52, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

- Comment - It's comforting to see that many here are simply wanting to keep this until the larger debate on Userboxes is settled, one way or the other, rather than defending the POV box itself. But bear in mind that if the equally offensive/divisive User_Nazi Userbox is deleted (discussion below) then this one should be, too. If one is deleted for being POV, then the other surely will *not* be saved, or a rethink should occur here at Wikipedia about the so-called "NPOV" policy and about fairness on the whole.

[edit] Template:User_Nazi
Template:User_Nazi (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Divisive userbox. Alibabs 23:54, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- Comment - Who creates a Userbox and then offers it up to be deleted as "divisive" in the same day? Nhprman UserLists 01:04, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. Is the above comment correct? If so, this userbox has been created solely to make a point.
-
- That said, it is only common sense to speedily delete this userbox. The reason is not that it is merely "divisive", or that all such political userboxes should be deleted. Deleting it would not prove a point about that. Rather, there are some specific viewpoints so extreme and hateful that their expression here tends to bring the whole project into disrepute. Wikipedia is not a public space where there are reasons to allow all viewpoints to be expressed. It is a private space where tolerance of freedom of political speech has an outer boundary. That boundary is reached if the whole project would tend to be brought into disrepute if it lent its resources to the expression of certain very extreme viewpoints, of which Nazism is one. Therefore, deleting a userbox expressing a commitment to Nazism cannot await the formulation of a policy about userboxes in general. I don't know why the userbox was created - whether to express a view sincerely or to make a point - but it was, at minimum, a very unwise and provocative act. In my opinion, there should be some further consequence for whoever did this. Metamagician3000 02:50, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
-
- I'm sorry, but everyone is entitled to their opinion--I don't care how extreme it may be--and I believe that they should be allowed to express that . . . in this case by having a Userbox that says they are a member of the Nazi party. Userboxes should not be used to advocate the death of a person or race. Example: "I support eliminating ______ race." or "I support the assasination of __________." . Granted, the Nazi Party may support these ideas, but it is a legitimate political party, despite their rediculous (and few supporters) positions. The Nazi Party is allowed, care of the First Amendment, in the United States. I know the First Amendment applies only to the United States, but this First Amendment should apply to the whole world, in my opinion (POV!!!!!!). And just so you know my POV, I am Jewish (as well as believing in his Noodly Appendage of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.). --ALSO-- Political Userboxes should be kept. It establishes a users POV. The reasoning why this Userbox was created is possibly the only reason why it should be deleted. If someone makes a User:Nazi box and actually uses it, I'd support keeping it. In this case, the person created it and then listed it to be deleted. This is simply nonsense by the creator. The creator shouldn't even be allowed to create userboxes if all this person is going to is waste space. --myselfalso 05:14, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
-
- As you correctly point out, the world does not have a First Amendment (though similiar free speech rights exist throughout the world, obviously.) Even so, it surely doesn't apply to a private corporation (Wikia) which makes its own rules for what is and is not acceptable in space it's paying for (WP:NOT). I will say this, though, if one view is allowed here as a Userbox, all views should be, not just the ones the elite think are "acceptable," as Metamagician3000 seems to believe. Interesting that "I'm a nazi" is deleted while various "I'm a communist" boxes and two "I'm anti-fascist" ones are allowed to remain as Userboxes. That's blatantly unfair and POV. Frankly, userboxes as templates are a bad idea, and have wasted a whole lot of time. This debate over a bogus one is a good example of that. Nhprman UserLists 03:03, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

- Comment Today the nominator created this userbox, added it to Userboxes/Beliefs, and nominated it for deletion. That seems like a flagrant violation of WP:POINT to me. - Nellis 02:41, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Comment I would like to apologise for any offence taken. I acknowledge that I was merely trying to make a WP:POINT. Alibabs 06:37, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
- Comment You violated WP:POINT. Perhaps you should read over it again. --myselfalso 19:28, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
- Comment - I do have to say, poor Naziism (being sarcastic here) has no defenders, as opposed to the pro-communist box, in the conversation above. If this one is deleted, I sure hope the other is, too. The same if the other is saved. This POV-pushing using Userboxes has to end. I hope this proves it. Nhprman UserLists 02:10, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
-
- Userboxes are for user pages. User pages are not articles. Userboxes are not allowed to be used on article pages. Userboxes should be allowed to be POV, since they are for user-space, not article-space. Therefore, User-Nazi and User-Communist should be allowed to exist. The reason why it was deleted in the first place was because it was created "to make a WP:POINT". --myselfalso 04:16, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
- This userbox would be perfectly acceptable if a real Nazi wanted to create it and use it. As it was created simply to cause disruption, it should be deleted. —Cuiviénen (Cuivië) 19:05, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:SpecialChars and Template:SpecialCharsNote
Template:SpecialChars (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) Template:SpecialCharsNote (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Useless, not practical, NPOV. So what characters are "special" characters? Is all characters which Unicode less than 32 or greater or equals to 128 "special", or is Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters "special", or is some characters like ✁✒✣✴❅❖ "special", or is Unicode 4.1 only characters "special", to say if a character "special" is POV, and it is platform and browser critical, it makes no sense. Wikipedia is internationalized, and too many articles include "special characters", so these templates are not practical. I strong suggest delete these templates, and for those users encounter problems to read the specific article, they can try to read Help:Special characters. — Yaohua2000 23:21, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

- Keep per Davidpk212. shaggy 02:48, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- keep, this is for pragmatic use, on articles with characters that are supported by virtually no system out of the box, such as Gothic alphabet and Old Italic alphabet and Linear B. The template will be obsolete once these characters are commonly supported. Much rather up for deletion should be {{IndicText}} which 'warns' about a unicode range that is widely supported. It is the user's fault if they haven't configured their browser properly for Indic display. It is not the user's fault if their browsers don't support Gothic or Linear B. dab (ᛏ) 11:58, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep as a matter of politeness as long as users are actually having technical difficulties with some Unicode ranges. Lukas (T.|@) 12:04, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

- Keep. As long as some articles need the templates, they should remain in existence. The content and application of the templates can be adjusted to address the concerns of the person who made the nomination. That is, the templates can be made to be applicable to a smaller set of articles, if it's really a problem (and I'm not sure that it is). I predict that mass deletion of the templates will result in many people complaining about "boxes and question marks" appearing in articles that contain not-widely-supported characters, especially in articles like the ones that deal with specific character encodings. —mjb 00:10, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:AcademyAwardBestPicture
Template:AcademyAwardBestPicture (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Seems too big and cumbersome. And since I was the one who previously marked all of the Academy Award for Best Picture articles with {{Succession box}} about two months ago [2] [3] [4], I think the template nav box is sort of unnecessary. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 03:07, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- Therefore, I believe it violates Wikipedia:Categories, lists, and series boxes#Article series boxes: For very long series, it is preferable to use incumbent series, which only show the elements of the series immediately preceding and succeeding the article. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 20:07, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, I feel that it meets all 3 conditions. (1) From any given Best Picture article I would want to be able to travel to any other Best Picture article. (2) An article on a Best Picture winner is likely to mention the previous or subsequent Best Picture winner because it gives context to a victory (its often commented that one years winners have a lot to do with the politics of last years winners, etc.). (3) All Best Picture articles could become substantial. They are all notable films that could one day even become featured articles. I agree that the series is long; I disagree that it is extremely long. Its hard for me to think of examples off the top of my head, US Presidents comes to mind. Seems like we are going to want a template that lists all of them even 1000 years from now when that list becomes huge. I think we have to weigh the length of the list against the usefulness of the connection. Someone might be reading an article about a best picture winner and wonder: "What won in X year?" or "What was the first winner?" "Have any similar films won?" etc. I think its more important for the purposes of this discussion to be talking about the specifics of the Best Picture winners. It's doubtful this template would be used as precedent because there are few applicable situations. savidan(talk) (e@) 22:28, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep: It's not that cumbersome compared to some of the boxes we have (e.g. Senators, House of Representatives, Star Craft, etc). It provides useful information. The sucession boxes aren't that helpful unless you are only interested in the film immediately before and after. I'm not saying we should necessarily remove them, but if we have to choose between them, I'd go with the template. savidan(talk) (e@) 10:15, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- The examples you mention (Senators, House of Representatives, Star Craft) are organized in such a way that they cannot be converted into an Incumbent series, and therefore do not qualify under the Wikipedia:Categories, lists, and series boxes#Article series boxes rule I mentioned. However, Template:AcademyAwardBestPicture currently does. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 20:35, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- How about Template:Woody Allen Films? That's 3/4 the size but for something much less signficant. My main problem with just having the succession boxes is that they take up 1/5 of the space of the template but convey much less information. There is no other place where you can see all the best picture winners, in order, in one screenshot. The Academy Award for Best Picture article lists the nominees and thus requires the reader to scroll down a lot. The category is sorted alphabetically, not chronologically. Thus, the template serves a very useful function. I made sure it was always on the bottom of the articles, so its really not that obtrusive. It also has the "Hide" feature for users who don't want to see it. savidan(talk) (e@) 22:15, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, forgot to answer your actual argument. {{USpresidents}} could be converted to an incumbent series but isnt. savidan(talk) (e@) 22:36, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- But Template:USpresidents only has 43 entries, instead of 78. And it does not list the years as Template:AcademyAwardBestPicture does. I might not mind if AcademyAwardBestPicture only listed the links, instead of both the links and the years. Without any type of seperation or formatting, it is very hard to read or scan.

- Comment, I think I would prefer delete, but I can understand why some would want to keep it. Just a thought, but why not make it smaller by going by decade or by 2 decades? That would be about 10 or 20 films instead of all 78 or however many they're up to. If it's done right, it could be easily navigated. I recommend this. K1Bond007 05:42, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Delete There are already two simple ways to see the list this template is supposed to help us access: (1) we can go to Academy Award for Best Picture (available from most such articles); (2) we can go to the bottom of the article and click on Category:Best Picture Oscar (this works for all such articles). Why add a third way? 66.167.139.205 10:22, 6 March 2006 (UTC).
- Keep, but modify along lines suggested by K1Bond007 above. David Kernow 12:42, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

- Keep because although quite big, it is a useful aid to navigation Kurando | ^_^ 16:14, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep rather than adopt suggestion of K1Bond007 above, because his suggestion makes it impossible to scan a chronological list of Best Picture winners. This is the only convenient chronological list currently in the Wikipedia The Academy Award for Best Picture article is not a list-- it's way too long to scan through for the names of two pictures that are 5-6 years apart. And the template's at a logical location in each Best Picture article.CGMullin 19:41, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Roman religion (hub)
Template:Roman religion (hub) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
Another large, ugly, incomplete list of links. Now being added to the middle of articles. Septentrionalis 00:55, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- Delete I was going to vote to keep, but then I saw Template:Roman religion on the same page. This template seems to be an unnecessary and redundant hybrid of two templates (Roman religion and Roman mythology). AmiDaniel 21:51, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
- Delete and improve Template:Roman religion. No need for multiple templates. savidan(talk) (e@) 04:50, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

- Delete and use the country infobox. We want to keep all the countries uniform and creating infoboxes for individual countries will make that goal difficult if we decide that X or Y fact should or should not be included in the future. savidan(talk) (e@) 22:38, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
