User:UBX/Trump misguided

Compares subject to mass-murdering dictators. Even though I hate trump, and the box says “misguided”, this seems like it crosses a line into intentionally inflammatory attack content. Dronebogus (talk) 06:29, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think this userbox is a disservice to Wikipedia, and a more acceptable variation can easily be found for a Wikipedia to declare their personal political biases. I thing an RfC on politics in Userboxes and userpages is desirable. I think the dividing line should be between one describing oneself (acceptable) and asserting abhorrent qualities to a living person (unacceptable). I expect that many would support allowing strong opinions on campaigning politicians, but my personal opinion is that Wikipedia advocacy on issues not well tied to the purpose of Wikipedia is advocacy that damages the reputation of Wikipedia. There are reasonable arguments that Wikipedia should have a voice on matters that impact the free access to information, eg Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), but advocacy against a politician on the basis that they are stupid, this is too broad.

Strong Delete per nomination. Although personally having pretty much the same opinion on Trump as the nominator, I think its highly inappropriate and unacceptable to place him in the same category with the names mentioned in the userbox. —Sundostund (talk) 19:47, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Sundostund. It goes beyond declaring an opinion, beyond criticism. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:33, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Userboxes that go out of their way to be this inflammatory don't belong on Wikipedia. Vanilla Wizard 💙 21:34, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Although I hate him too, I think this one goes way too far to be hosted on Wikipedia. —CX Zoom[he/him] ^{(let's talk • C • L)} 13:41, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
