Notice the consistent spelling of a MediaWiki userbox as ''userbox'' and the mention of the common abbrev. '''UBX'''.

			I agree, 'tis one word. However, the word ''userbox'' in itself isn't very long, and thus acceptable instead of the less transparent ''UBX''. Also, it might be worth mentioning, that using a mixed case in any kind of title, is heavily discouraged. This is part of my staggering overhaul of the templates: [[User:Waahlis/On templates]]. Please leave a comment on that talk page for further discussion.

	Zelos, please start your subjects with a heading, would you? I too find it a tad discouraging. 'Tisn't offensive... just an award you'd only give yourself. Also, I object strongly to the use of UBX instead of the dominant Userbox.
