Template talk:Userbox

message: Please apply Special:Diff/941729320/976979286 to remove number of categories check to allow unconditional categorization of articles (main namespace) into :Category:Pages with misplaced templates. See, for example, Special:Diff/959473229, where template  has stayed in the article for a month and a half, but the article wasn't categorized due to absence of parameter . —⁠andrybak (talk) 06:17, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Template-protected edit request on 6 September 2020 

message: Userboxes that have a border 2 pixels wide seem to have a non-standard height, since the border expands outwards rather than in toward the infobox center. This creates subtle misalignments, like here. Could this be remedied?  talk 23:50, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Knowling a lot about CSS and HTML, my answer is technically yes, but not simply. It's not as easy as setting a value like border-direction: inward because it doesn't exist. No matter what, a CSS border will always expand outward. It is theoretically possible to have some extra calculations within the module that shrinks the width and height in unison with the border, but for the effort it would take to implement it, would it be worth it? --Diriector_Doc├─────┤TalkContribs 05:50, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Handling 2-pixel borders better 

message: I would like to request the the seemingly random  code be removed from the top of the page. It appears like it's not meant to be there or something's not showing up right. If it's supposed to be there let me know. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:33, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: It's not random. It's showing you what an empty version of the template looks like. It could be better, I suppose. Feel free to modify the sandbox to propose a change.  – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:37, 1 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah ok. Looks a bit odd but alright. I think it's mainly because it doesn't actually look like a userbox. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:49, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

message: is it because of your recent edits that user pages are showing up in ? I.e. the category is being transcluded from the templates to the user pages. – Fayenatic London 21:50, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Categorising user pages in Category:Userboxes with insufficient color contrast 

message: I noticed in doing some maintenance that  is being inappropriately added to  by the  code in the userbox. I believe that this should not be happening. Templates should live in template categories, and User pages that transclude the userboxes should be assigned the User categories. It looks like this discussion from 2014 tried to address the issue but went nowhere. 
The problem can be worked around using includeonly tags, but the template should just do the right thing. If I knew Lua, I would try to fix it, but I do not. If the Lua code could somehow provide the equivalent of includeonly tags, that might do the trick. – Jonesey95 (talk) 06:17, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
