Buddha Purnima edit

Hello, kindly accept my greetings on the occasion of Buddha Purnima. --Bhadani 16:08, 13 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello nice to receive a reply form you. I think you have come with a lot of energy. I am a Hindu by birth, but I too do not celebrate any festival, and beleive in the unity of mankind. --Bhadani 16:58, 14 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

New userboxes edit

I have deleted a userbox template you recently created, as userboxes should no longer be created in templatespace per the terms of the German userbox solution. Here is the userbox code so that you can recreate the userbox in your userspace ("userfying") if you wish.

<div style="float: left; border:solid {{{1|{{{border-c|black}}}}}} 1px; margin: 1px;">
{| cellspacing="0" style="width: 238px; background: {{{2|cornsilk}}};"
| style="width: 45px; height: 45px; background: {{{1|lightblue}}}; text-align: center; font-size: {{{5|16}}}pt; color: {{{id-fc|dark blue}}};" | '''{{{Blogger|Blogger}}}'''
| style="font-size: {{{info-s|8}}}pt; padding: 4pt; line-height: 1.25em; color: {{{info-fc|black}}};" | {{{4|This user has a ''[[Blog]]''}}}
|}</div>

There seems to be some controversy going on at the moment regarding these boxes. I've recently returned to editing Wikipedia after a long break. I'll reverse my decision to "join in" with the use of these emblems until I can get a better grasp of the sides fighting each other here. A cursory glance at Cyde Weys tells me he's in conflict with a lot of people for dispensing alleged rough justice. I don't know. I've just got back and thought it would be fun to join in with all these little boxes people are using to identify themselves. My bad luck that it was just at the same time that Cyde is cracking down on them with the so-called "German solution" or whatever.

Whatever, assume as much bad faith about me as you want, and try to discredit me because I'm involved in controversial issues if you want, just please, abide by the terms of WP:GUS. And no one's stopping you from using little boxes to identify yourself ... you can even put those directly into your userpage. Just don't make new templates to do it with. --Cyde Weys 14:40, 21 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

In what way do you feel I've tried "to discredit" you? Is there anything in my reply just now which wasn't true? --wayland 14:47, 21 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
