Template:User stupidquestions
This user can and will ask stupid questions if needed. |
Notes
[edit]This template indicates editors who have expressed willingness to ask questions that may seem unnecessary or pointless to ask, whether on talk pages, the Teahouse, the Help desk, or the Reference desk. Such questions may have answers that would either seem obvious or useless to other users. It is inspired by (and is a parody of) the difficult edits and difficult blocks userboxes.
Despite being similar to the aforementioned userboxes, users who place this userbox on their user pages may not necessarily take requests to ask potentially "stupid" questions on behalf of others, nor is there to be a list of such contributors.
Given its lighthearted nature, please keep in mind that placing this userbox on your user page will not give you an excuse to waste other contributors' time by pestering them with tendentious inquiries. Even though you may be given the benefit of the doubt if you ask a question that turns out to be ridiculous, you should avoid making a habit of persistently requesting input from other users, otherwise the community may grow tired of you, especially if most of your inquiries pertain to matters deemed unworthy of discussion. Keep in mind that each and every individual may have a bunch of other stuff to attend to, and no one should be expected to set aside their time or energy to deal with you 24/7.
