New Box[edit]

Can someone create a Phillipines nationality userbox Overlord878 03:51, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

I'm onto it, just one question: Is it a Phillipino who comes from the Phillipines? I think that's it. - Game LordTalk|Contribs 06:27, 30 May 2008 (EDT)
The country is the Philippines, and the people are Filipino. Although Overlord878 might prefer to be called Pinoy/ay. --Gaebrial 06:39, 30 May 2008 (EDT)
I'll do it as "Template:User Filipino", but not now, I've got to go. You can do it, the image is uploaded already. - Game LordTalk|Contribs 06:40, 30 May 2008 (EDT)
Done. Although the image is named incorrectly ;-) --Gaebrial 06:50, 30 May 2008 (EDT)
Do you mean name-wise, or format-wise? Because I know that most flag images are "flag_country.jpg", but the country name is correct... - Game LordTalk|Contribs 08:16, 30 May 2008 (EDT)
You've spelled 'Philippines' as 'Phillipines'... :-D --Gaebrial 08:21, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

(Outdent) Oh yeah, well, I assumed that was correct as Overlord spelt it that way, no offense to him, anyone can misstype. Also wikipedia:Phillipines redirects to wikipedia:Philippines, and I didn't notice it was a redirect. :-S - Game LordTalk|Contribs 08:26, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

Thanks guys and sorry I spelled it wrong I havn't gone there in a long time. Overlord878 16:47, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

New user, new box[edit]

Hi, I'm a new editor to UESP, been reading articles for a year or two. I just created a Userbox for Haiti. I've made two minor errors in the process and I'm wondering how to go about fixing them.

I did my research first, to find I had to first upload a flag image. But I made a typo while uploading, in the process naming the flag Flag_Hait.png. I uploaded again with the correct spelling, getting a duplicate warning. Can the first one be deleted, or would it simply remain as a previous version? I'm assuming that as a new user I don't have the authority to delete a file or page.

Also, once I created the Userbox template, named User_Haiti, I noticed that most - not all - of the Userbox templates are actually named after the demonym, not the country - Canadian as opposed to Canada, or Japanese as opposed to Japan. It's not really an error, I suppose, as two others are the respective countries - User_Argentina right at the top, and User_NZ. But for consistency's sake I'd like to know if the new Userbox template's name can be changed to Haitian instead of Haiti. If not, it's no big deal, as I wouldn't want to create a whole second template and thereby clog up the system with an unused page. --FunkyJazzMonkey 17:35, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Welcome! I renamed the template to "User Haitian" and proposed the duplicated image for speedy deletion. An administrator will probably delete the duplicate later on. --Alfwyn 17:47, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Thanks! :) --FunkyJazzMonkey 22:42, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Mexico Userbox[edit]

Would a more experienced editor be willing to create a userbox for Mexico? I don't see one on the list. Thanks in advance! Alphabetface 06:12, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

Edits To My Edits Needed[edit]

The (very minor) edits I made, with regard to demonym consistency, resulted in two entries needing linked pages. I was about to complete them, but realized that, as I am not only (actively) new to the UESPWiki, but to HTML (a double nightmare for you, I can imagine), I would make things worse, not better. For my edit not being complete, I apologize. If I should have left the page untouched in light of my naivete, please let me know. Thank you. bastwren 17:56, 1 May 2013 (GMT)

I got it, no worries--~The wind, forsaken~ (talk) 18:02, 1 May 2013 (GMT)
You are quick! Thank you so much for your help. bastwren 18:30, 1 May 2013 (GMT)
