Wikipedia:WikiProject Scouting/Userboxes is part of WikiProject Userboxes. This means that the WikiProject has identified it as part of the
userboxes system. WikiProject Userboxes itself is an attempt to improve, grow, and standardize Wikipedia's articles and templates related to the userbox system, used on many users' pages. We need all your help, so

The difference here is you asked for a green light at 23:15 and started at 00:43 and yet claim you "got tired of waiting". Being bold is one thing but asking for a green light and waiting less than 30 minutes is bad taste and very impatient. —

I'm so sorry for the terrible offense. I hope you will forgive my inadequacy. You can always revert my work until the green light is given. ~

I do have a few nitpicks:
Is there some project push to do this? If so, where has this been discussed so that we can understand what is going on?
The code on this page was already rather complicated, and is now even more so. I think a template would be *very* useful to accomplish all of this.
I can see where a link to see who is using the userbox is useful; but I don't see why it is transcluded so that the link does not appear on the main project page, but only on transcluded pages. Calling the link "transclusions" is not obvious to casual users.
The link has been called "Transclusions" in all other userbox pages. You would have to convince a lot of people to change this. The title of the column does indicate the link will show you the Users. I still plan to simplify the page's code with templates, but wanted to make sure I had it straightened up first, so that changing to templates wouldn't be so buggy. ~

Also, the transclusions links are set to not appear on the main project page because the project page has other columns that seem more important in its scope. On the other hand, some columns that are a great inclusion in the project page are not observed in any other userbox pages. You will never see a "Topic" or "Parameters" column in any other userbox listing pages, for example. ~

Ok, I'm done simplifying the code. Now you can just edit the table however you want. Try to keep the code that is in the <includeonly></includeonly> tags untouched so that the transclusions on other pages are not affected. ~

I think that we should have a arrow of light userbox. I'm new to this so I don't know much about making them. This is my attempt, it would be great if someone could finish it. -
