This is a userbox (commonly abbreviated as UBX), a small colored box you can add to your User page to share information about yourself, or help other users learn about you so you can collaborate.

To add this userbox to your User page:

Go to your user page.
Click to Edit This Page.
Place your cursor where you would like to see the userbox.
