*'''Delete''' The relevant guideline is [[WP:UBX]], which states the userboxes "must not contain incivility or personal attacks." While the creator of this userbox surely did so in good faith and did not mean to personally attack anyone, anyone who actually uses the userbox – no one at this time – will be personally attacking {{admin|Jimbo Wales}}. After all, "[[WP:WARN|warned]] Jimbo Wales" implies that he did something wrong. Transclusion of this userbox, therefore, would be an accusation about personal behavior without evidence – a [[WP:NPA|personal attack]] under [[WP:NPA#What is considered to be a personal attack?]]. And given our BLP standards, I doubt anyone would dare to call such a transclusion "tongue-in-cheek humor."

No one is using the box and I don't think that Jimbo will need to be warned as he has taken a pretty hands-off approach to the site. I also doubt that this would be used as tongue-in-cheek humor. --Kevin Rutherford (talk) 21:39, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
