A userbox is a small coloured box (see examples below) designed to appear only on a user page of a Wikidata-contributor as a communicative notice about the user, in order to directly or indirectly help contributors collaborate more effectively.
The first userboxes were introduced to support the Babel, which eases item-translation by allowing the user to view and edit more than one language in the Wikidata-interface.
Other userboxes can indicate WikiProject participation or indicate proficiencies or interests of a particular user. The userboxes might also indicate a users special editing privileges such as administrators, property creators, or bureaucrats.
Please create userboxes in this namespace "Template:" and place a link to the template on this page. If you can, please make them translatable to keep Wikidata multilingual.
Some users have special editing privileges on Wikidata and might want to indicate so on their userpage. These user boxes are part of the babel-template and can be shown like this:
Some users also have special editing privileges that they would like to indicate on Wikidata. Very useful if you are looking for e.g. a admin on one of the Wikipedias. This can be indicated like this:
These boxes are for the people that either self-assessed their pywikibot proficiency or went through the course at Wikidata:Pywikibot - Python 3 Tutorial.
