Userbox

Manurulz1548,

If you want to use that userbox, then go ahead. HMSVictory was totally out of order reprimanding you for using it. Nothing on this wiki can be attributed to one user as his/her property. Anyone is free to post on their userpage what they will. - Game Lord^{Talk|Contribs} 12:47, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

I'm sorry, but he didn't even ask to use it. Maybe if he had said something, I would have agreed. Anyway, where do you draw the line? I don't want to see copies of my entire page cropping up without action taken. --HMSVictory^Talk 12:57, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Although you made the userbox you have no official ownership of it, as it sais right under the input box for edits: "Note that all contributions to UESPWiki may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors." and further on "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly, then don't submit it here." if you uploaded it with no official copyright o it then he has ever right to use it. --Volanaro 13:00, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

You missed one Vonanaro :) "You agree to license your contributions under the Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 License" - Game Lord^{Talk|Contribs} 13:02, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

That as well, all i'm saying is if he wants to use that userbox then he has a right to do so.--Volanaro 13:12, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Nonetheless, it is somewhat degrading when another user simply takes something on your page without asking, and sticks it on theirs, with no indication of who originally created it. He could have just made his own Userbox, or, more importantly, disussed it with me beforehand. I know he's new, but that doesn't not excuse him entirely for this. Anyway, it's not a huge issue, it just bothers me a little. --HMSVictory^Talk 13:06, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

But the point of the wiki is that he shouldn't have to ask. --Volanaro 13:12, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

(I hate colons!) People copy one anothers userpage ideas all the time. I've seen my "The Various Mes" section on other userpages, it's the same with that "You have new messages" joke. It's just one of those things that are going to happen. Besides if you don't think it that big an issue, then why did you demand his removing it the moment you saw it? - Game Lord^{Talk|Contribs} 13:14, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Ok look this is getting out of hand, the point is that this is a place where everyone can edit freely, I'm not sure if Manurulz1548 would be too happy to see use having an argument on ahis talk page, if you've got anything else to say about this then put a message on my page for now but i dont want to put this guy off coming to the site as every editor is valued here. --Volanaro 13:17, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

I didn't know it was yours HMS victory, i thought it was one of the others like 'this user is male' etc sorry, i'll ask next time! Manurulz1548 13:22, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Ah, so that was the confusion! Yeah, sometimes it is difficult to differ between official site Userboxes (see here for the complete list) and user-made ones. As long as you ask, I will usually be fine with it! --HMSVictory^Talk 13:25, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Manurulz1548, I apologise that your talk page has become the site of an argument between several editors and i hope it has not discouraged you from using the site, you have every right to use the halo 3 userbox on your page if you so choose as no-one actually owns anything on this site, with the exception of the webmaster so go ahead and put it back on if you want. --Volanaro 13:32, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Link?

I was wondering if i'm aloud to link some of the words in my user page to the aprropiate pages, like linking the word wabbabjack to it's page? I didn't know who to ask, so I just posted it hear. Manurulz1548 14:42, 24 April 2008 (EDT)

Sure, go for it! ;) –Eshe^talk 18:14, 24 April 2008 (EDT)

Thanks :) Manurulz1548 18:16, 24 April 2008 (EDT)
