Problem with one of the stats userboxes

This userbox has a problem: {{User:A930913/Editcount2|Example User}}

Clicking it redirected to some spammy pages with a ton of popups. I have removed that userbox from the list of those recommended, so before restoring it please be sure it is working properly. Sharktopus^talk 01:38, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What is so significant about 42?

I believe that it is better to use something like x or an unknown value, there is nothing significant about that number. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheChampionMan1234 (talk • contribs)

@Ahunt:I never knew that, but I don't think it's relevant for the purpose of the project of user boxes, not everyone understands strange superstitions like these, so I believe it is better to change it to something more reasonable.— Preceding unsigned comment added by TheChampionMan1234 (talk • contribs)

I think in this case "42" is just being used as an example number. It could be any number or text used. - Ahunt (talk) 00:45, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Automation of stats

Is there a way of substituting the value in the userbox by a variable that updates automatically? Eg, number of articles created. Thanks, DPdH (talk) 13:11, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Problems with the templates in the bottom

The template links {{name of the template|param 1|param 2|...}} below the template {{yy|User:SteveStrummer/Template:GAauthor|#}} are misinterpreted as plain links [[Template:Name of the template]], except while editing the section in which they are, maybe it is because of too many templates are in the same page. --DelvecchioSimone12 5 96 (talk) 14:53, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, it is "too many transclusions on the page". The solution is to split the page and move some of the content to a new page. - Ahunt (talk) 15:08, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
