Forum:User-specific templates

A lot of people on central create pages for scary-transcluding onto other wikis. However, a lot of them choose to create the pages in the template namespace, as Template:User:Name or something simillar. Isn't this a bit... silly? Why not simply transclude your own userpage (like I do) and keep the template namespace free of user-specific pages? 18:39, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I only want certain parts of my user page transluded onto other pages. For example, I don't want the "See also" section of my user page transluded onto other wikis. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 18:47, 23 February 2009 (UTC)


 * I do all my userpages manually... — TulipVorlax 05:18, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Well you could just transclude a subpage of your own userpage. My point was that the template namespace should be "cleaner". 15:13, 24 February 2009 (UTC)


 * What you propose then? for me its cleaner that way, first "Template:" thats the real NameSpace then "User:" thats a clear understanding that this is for user purpose. instead of having in the "C" Template:Cizagna or in "T" Template:TulipVolax or in "O" Template:Ose.
 * I dont know if it has change but in the past only pages on Template namespace could be transcluded using  and you cant use variables to create a template here at central and then to direct to other page so you are force to create single templates here, certain filtering should be made or set of rules to keep stuff clean and easy for example for personal use you can create X number of templates, upload Y number of images, unless any of those fall in to what the community can truly use but i dont know if at central such consensus has been made or even propose --Cizagna (Talk) Central Dofus 15:56, 24 February 2009 (UTC) 15:56, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
