OK I admit I'm really picky about usage of the word "brother." That admitted, I don't think one can be a brother of an organization. I mean, one is a human being and the other is a club. I think one can be a member of an organization, a brother of other members, but not a brother of the organization.

Two userboxes based on User:UBX/better world without dogs. cimanyD (talk) 00:20, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

I've changed the userboxes to italicize cats and include "This user does not." at the end.
Also, these userboxes would probably be better if they were combined into one template, or even into User:UBX/better world without dogs. For instance, if {{User:UBX/better world without dogs|cat}} produced the same thing as the /cat page, and {{User:UBX/better world without dogs|cats}} produced what's on the current /cats page, neither of the other two would be needed. I don't know much about template code, I just copied the code from User:UBX/better world without dogs, removed the links, and changed the wording. ...Dynamic|cimanyD...

The dog, cat and bird userboxes they have a total of three params. The first param is The amount of dogs/cats/birds you have. The second one is how many of the total are males and the third is for how many of the total are female. The IRC Server userbox has one param. Which is where you put the irc server that you are usually on, and operates as a link as well. I will in the future add an userbox where you can add how many servers you are on. I also might decide to integrate it into the irc server userbox, see documentation pages on the userboxes pages it will tell you what the params or how to include it on your page. —Clarkcj12 (talk) 18:10, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

the text

  • Don't most of these violate the policy that "Userboxes must not be inflammatory or divisive"? The main Userboxes page also says:
"Avoid verbs (often followed by the word "that") which may be used to suggest negative comparison and would thus be potentially divisive, such as:
  • believes, considers, finds, knows, prefers, thinks, wishes.
Avoid negative verb phrases which can be potentially divisive, such as:
  • dislikes, despises, hates, loathes
Also avoid compound sentences which are positive and negative, such as:
  • This user likes <noun phrase>, but does not like <another noun phrase>."
