This template which I speedied under CSD T1 and pure common sense is now 
on DRV because some process wonks are pointing out T1 doesn't apply 
outside template-space. (Which is, if you think about, blatant 
wikilawyering, since now anyone can just create the most offensive, 
polemical and divisive template ever in userspace and have all his 
buddies transclude it on their userpages.) I mentioned I had speedied 
the userbox on the Admins' noticeboard, and two other admins expressed 
agreement:

Maybe Jimbo should clarify how literally he wants T1 interpreted and 
whether userboxen in userspace are subject to this sort of thing.
