La Paternal

edit

I saw you moved the La Paternal, Buenos Aires article to La Paternal (Buenos Aires). This produced a series of redirects from the original name in a number of pages, such as Barrios of Buenos Aires and the {{Barrios of Buenos Aires}} template. Even though it is arguable which format is more convenient, the current naming of the neighbourhoods is that of , Buenos Aires. I'm reverting the name of the article to its original, in order to aviod mixed naming and redirects. If you wish to propose a renaming of the neighbourhoods, please do so both at Barrios of Buenos Aires, and more important at Wikipedia talk:Argentina-related regional notice board. Thanks, and good wiking. Mariano(t/c) 08:23, 30 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Sorting in Categories

edit

Hi Mx! You have been fixing the categories of several articles, but in so, you have added accents and other special characters to the sorting string for them. The problem for this is that they are then sorted by ASCII number, thus putting ñ way after the z instead of after the n. Same thing happens with accented vowels (á, é, í, ó, ú, ü). To prevent this, we usually put the word with simplified simbols. Therefore, José de San Martín is added as [[Category:Argentine people|San Martin, Jose de]], without accents. Have it in mind for the next edits, and good wiking! Mariano(t/c) 07:41, 7 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Welcome Back!

Hey! Welcome back!
Maxi, be bold! Get into the article and modify it!! The only thing you need to keep in mind is that the article is about the FOOTBALL rivalry. The British invasions in 1806 and 1807 (and other things) should only be referenced as a possible origin for the football rivalry, but nothing else. If I can, I will make some updates but you should take the lead and start. :)

I'm not really a fan of car racing, but whatever I can contribute, I will.

If they are stubs, it's fine; we can expand on them later. BTW, is "TC2000" or "TC 2000" better? The category is "TC2000 drivers" but the article is "TC 2000"... --Pablo D.

Hola Maximiliano: Thanks for your awesome words on my user page!. I love Argentina. I love all of Latin America.

You know what's funny, that most people think Puerto Rico is very rich because we are part of the United States but the United States does not give a lot of money to Puerto Rico, the dollar we get is hard earned. Consequently, I used to watch old telenovelas from Mexico, Venezuela and Argentina (Argentina I still do) then walk by my city of Caguas and the houses, streets and stores in our streets are exactly like those of the rest of Latin America. So I guess because Puerto Rico is Latin America, we speak Spanish, have the same last names and obviously even Black Puerto Ricans have at least one percent Spanish blood, I feel every country is the same. When Coggi won his title, I felt I won, as I did when Chile's Ceci Bolocco won Miss Universe. We are brothers and sisters in blood, race, culture and language.

I lived next to people from Spain, Argentina, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico while in Puerto Rico. My uncle and aunt are Cuban by their mother's side, and my teacher was Costa Rican! Furthermore, another neighbor was from Colombia. So you can see where I come from when I say we are one united race and I love my Argentinos as well as the rest of Hispanics, mi hermano.

Bueno mil gracias y Dios te bendiga! We'll talk again hopefully soon1

Sincerely yours, Antonio Mar del Plata, golden city Martin

Thank you

People by language category

edit

I think you should wait and see what others say. The best way to avoid others staying quiet is for you to repeat the comment you left on my talk page at the discussion on the Categorization talk page. Then if a few people agree, the way would be clear for you to go ahead.

While I'm here, can I ask for some advice? I have recently put Tolkien in Category:Philologists, but looking round the categories in that area, I see that there is confusion between linguists and philologists. Would you be able to help sort that out, if you know which people should be in which categories (or even both)? Carcharoth 17:10, 3 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Maximiliano: We would be honored to have you check the Wikipedia:Association of Hispanic and Latin American writers and become one of our members.

Thanks and God bless you!

Dear Mxcatania: Thanks for joining the association and for making the article on Jose Ruiz. He was a world champion who was sadly murdered during a robbery. He actually beat a friend of mine, Juan Carazo, by knockout in the first round in defense of his world title! It's an honor to have you among us, and I will go ahead and write about Juan Manuel Fangio II in a moment. Once again, thanks and God bless you! Sincerely yours, Antonio Batata Martin

Avenida Corrientes

edit

Thanks for the "assignment". I didn't do that much research, just translation. I see you have made some additions/ amendments. Maybe you can help out with some of the parts of the Spanish article about which I had no clue? Like for example, what does "morocho" mean? I looked it up and there were several definitions, all different. And there was another phrase I couldn't figure out how to translate: "Punto de reunión de grandes concentraciones políticas de la historia argentina, cuando los políticos todavía tenían poder de convocatoria (más de un millón de personas en cada acto de cierre de campaña en 1983)." By "acto de cierre de campaña" do they just mean like the end of a political campaign? And do you know what "concentraciones políticas" they're talking about? Some specific example might be better than the generalizations in the Spanish article....or any other thoughts or suggestions you might have...Gracias,--Rockero 19:42, 12 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hermano, mezclaste Importance con quality!! e.i. importance=stub|class=mid en vez de importance=mid|class=stub. Mariano(t/c) 15:22, 9 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

It's great that you're using the template - I'll get round to it in a day or two myself. Your use of it has triggered some thoughts in me (as I hoped it would). Mariano and I have suggested Barrios of BA as well as Partidos and Departments should be Mid-importance unless higher. You've put La Paternal as Low Importance. You also tagged it as Stub when I'd call it Start. I don't have a disagreement with those, but I'd be interested in your reasonings so that we can make changes if appropriate to the Importance and Assessment criteria. I'm also not clear if I should use the GA-class tag if the article hasn't been peer reviewed as such (and therefore be a B-class or even A-class, but not GA or FA). Again, do you have any ideas or knowledge on this? Martín (saying/doing) 20:56, 9 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Addition. I just looked more carefully at Wikipedia:WikiProject Argentina/Assessment and it specifically says GA-class should be used exclusively for articles that have been peer reviewed. That doesn't stop them being A-class however, which is the case for Eva Perón. Martín (saying/doing) 21:29, 9 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
I was thinking about your idea of an Argentine Football WikiProject. If you think you want to go ahead (and I'm sure you'll find interest, including people not yet at WPAR), perhaps we should add a football-specific tag to the banner so that we can then automate the process of page monitoring, etc, etc. Theoretically it's possible to have a modification to the banner that brings up a larger banner with reference to the football project if triggered, but it's worth having the architecture there now even if it's not used for some time. Just a thought... Martín (saying/doing) 10:29, 12 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi Mxcatania. I found three sources on the web. They all agree that he was born in France (Lyon), but regarding his nationality, there seems to be some disagreement: www.f1db.com and gpracing.net192 list Testut as being from Monaco, FORIX (subscription site) says France. The fact that the only two races he entered were the 1958 and 1959 Monaco Grands Prix suggests that he lived in Monaco, but doesn't actually prove it. If I had to choose, I'd be tempted to go with Monaco. Hope this helps. DH85868993 (talk) 09:16, 24 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Edit summaries

edit
 

Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
 

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:44, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Smowtion

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Smowtion requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. 2 says you, says two 23:48, 1 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

+10

edit

G'day, I typed in +10 expecting that to take me to GMT+10 and found myself reading about Adidas. Love adidas. Not sure why I am reading about it. I've seen the Impossible is nothing campaign, but I don't understand how "+10" is related. Could you explain this? Regards, John Vandenberg (chat) 08:53, 18 June 2011 (UTC) p.s. Impossible is nothing mentions a gay slogan, but I cant find sources for that.Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Grupo Werthein, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George Weiss (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

tl;dr: not really in English.

Suspect this is largely a creation of Users I suspect of a FCoI and B)automatic machine translation - Eg. the Career section starts:

"At the age of 12 she was discovered on the street and offered to make their first pictures as a model. Since then it stopped working and what could be won in the commercial finance their studies, their outputs, their singing and acting."

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Latin American 10,000 Challenge invite

edit

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Latin America/The 10,000 Challenge ‎ has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Argentina etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Latin American content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon. If you would like to see this happening for Latin America, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Latin America, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!♦ --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 00:44, 27 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
