− | The current text in the Scottish infobox reads "This user is Scottish, and naeb'dy'd best be thinkin' o'herwise." This isn't actually a Scots translation, just a bad attempt at a Scottish accent. Could it be chaned to something like "This breuker is Scottish, an naebody shoud think ithergates!" This is a proper translation. I'd do it myself, but I don't know the rules about editing userboxes someone else has made. [[User:Cooper Kid|Cooper Kid]] 12:26, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

− | :Nevermind, I lied, I still can't figure it out. I tried the userbox template followed by |user=STEAM_0:1:25970203, |user=0:1:25970203, |user=1:25970203 and |user=25970203, and none of them work.

− | :If a dynamic userbox (i.e. one that uses parameters) displays a <nowiki>{{{1}}}</nowiki> anywhere, it usually means that you've made a mistake with one of the parameters. Double-check spelling, capital letters, and the documentation page for the userbox to ensure that you're using it properly. The same goes for any userbox which doesn't behave as it should; for example, one of the userboxes on your user page isn't displaying an image - this is simply because you spelled "Cloak and dagger" without a capital "D" in "Dagger".
