Perhaps we could move away from issues of deletion and being "allowed"
to have userboxes, and more asking userboxes advocates to appreciate
the dim view that others take of their behaviour. That is, let's
assume you're allowed to keep any userbox you like. Under what
circumstances would you concede that exercising that right is not in
the interests of the community and the project as a whole?

Deleting all the userboxes is totally disproportionate to any actual

Have the particular changes to which you refer

No. The nature and quantity of the edits visible in the history are
simply intended to demonstrate that football is a ready source of
factionalism.
