Where did the C++ userboxes go?
Where did the C++ userboxes go? Last Avenue 17:21, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
- I can't find them anywhere. Can you remebmer what they were called? Are you sure you didn't just seen a generic template like:
{{user programming-!1|c++}} - It renders as:
MySQL
is there a mysql userbox??
- There is Template:User mysql. I'll add it to the page.--Commander Keane 03:15, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
QBasic?
Are there Userbox tags for QBasic or is there anyone willing to make one? Yadaman 00:14, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
Native programmer?
Er, what's a native programmer? Someone who was taught to program before learning to speak? -JohnRDaily 23:15, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
- A joke by the programming+UBX crowd... —Last Avenue [talk | contributions] 15:26, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
- Template:User rexx-N(edit talk links history) started as joke, but it might make sense in a distant future when categories User rexx-0 up to User rexx-4 are created.
(edit talk links history) is serious as far as I'm concerned, and it has no silly template. For others like User asm-N I've no idea what they mean. Omniplex 04:39, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Java/Coffee Userbox
To minghong: I just reverted your changes because I think that userbox refers more to java, the programming language, than to coffee, although I did't bother to delete it in the food section. The name of the template, java-4, matches the name of other programming languages and some other: The topic (java) followed by a skill value. The design also fits the other programming userboxes. Anyway, it is just suitable for expressing (in a more or less humorous way) the personal level that one has mastered at Java. So it has a right to stay here, I believe. Not that it's of that much importance, btw :o) Oh, I almost forgot to mention that the java-symbol is a steaming coffee-cup, just in case you did't know. (Hm, that somehow sounds derogative, but is by all means not meant that way). JoshuaJD 16:17, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
- After having visited your user page, I might have refrained from the explanation of the Java symbol (ludicrous :o) - should have gone there before posting...) - but am a little surprised now that you - with your knowledge of Java - still do not consider the userbox in question as being suitable for this section. I am curiously awaiting your POV. JoshuaJD 16:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
- Err. Me again. On second or better umptieth thought, I find this box rather odd - template name's not java-4 but something like java coffee. It looks just like the program language icons, but links to an article about coffee?! I really would like to learn about The Creator's motivation for creating it. Anyway, not being as convinced as before, I think that inclusion of this box will definitely not hurt nevertheless, but agree to subject to a 10.000+ editor of Wikipedia, even if that would mean that my only contribution ever would be reverted. My, what a tragedy :o) Your POV nevertheless appreciated... Gone being obsessed with this userbox, JoshuaJD 20:11, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
Template cleanup
The User language categories for programming skills and corresponding templates are somewhat messy. Some proposals:
- If category User language-babelcode exists it should obviously be a subcategorty of User language. Therefore any template User language-babelcode should only include the relevant category...
<includeonly>[[Category:User language-babelcode|{{PAGENAME}}]]</includeonly>
...but itself belong to the parent category...
<noinclude>[[Category:User language| ]]</noinclude>.
