[edit] Harry Magdoff

Nobs01 again! I'm going to post a rewrite. 172 | Talk 10:56, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, but I doubt that the work's done. I'm expecting a fight with Nobs01, who has been contaminating many other articles with his defamatory personal conspiracy theories. This user needs to be watched very closely. 172 | Talk 13:01, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

BTW, I might need some help on Communism with Ultramarine. Also, let me know about other articles ready for quick rewrites like Harry Magdoff. 172 | Talk 14:45, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

Oh no! I didn't know that! 172 | Talk 19:13, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

The Guardian Unlimited, as it were (beforehand too anyway). El_C 19:31, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

I've seen it. Worse, Nobs01 has a sidekick now, TJive... John Kenney has already worked to keep their conspiracy theories out of the FDR article. We might want to get his help in dealing with this whole "category." SlimVirgin might also be very helpful. I'm not aware of an editor who deals with "original researchers" more effectively than Sarah. 172 | Talk 17:52, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Ultramarine

We need some relief from this user. If you have time, please take a look at the 3RR violation that has yet to be enforced. Thanks. 172 | Talk 15:35, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Sockpuppets

I am not using any sockpuppet accounts and would really appreciate it if you and your fellow comrades stop insinuating that I am. J. Parker Stone 11:37, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

When I left the last message, I did not see the evidence of sockpuppet usage. Perhaps I spoke too soon. 172 | Talk 02:20, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

i only use Trey Stone and 64.7.89.54 when I'm accidentally logged off. i happened to see said anon's edits because they were on my watchlist. J. Parker Stone 02:25, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Assorted Stuff

Do you know what happened to the category "Peruvian Terrorists?" I noticed that it dissapeared, but don't know why. I added Belunde, Garcia, and Fujimori to the list, as I felt they fit the definition, and I noticed that it suddenly went away. Perhaps rather than get in a fight about it, everyone would rather just see the category deleted.

Also, do you know anything about Barry Seal? His article is only a stub, and you are the kind of guy who would know a lot about him. Descendall 01:47, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

Never mind, I just saw that Peruvian Terrorists was removed, CfD. Missed the debate on that one. Descendall 06:01, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Email

Hey, thanks for the polite response in the email. On a side note, I'd really appreciate it if you editted back Pol Pot, as the current version is simply inaccurate in terms of dates. If you object to the other edits that I originally made in that section I can discuss it on the talk page -- same with the other articles we were RVing on before I got injunctioned. J. Parker Stone 03:27, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] CFD

Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2005 July 15#Category:Peruvian terrorists. It wasn't that hard to find. -- Viajero | Talk 09:19, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

OK. Understood. Question: How do you find a category that was deleted?--AAAAA 19:11, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Porgy & Bess FAC

Hey Viajero. Alexs letterbox apparently submitted Porgy and Bess at WP:FAC a week ago, so it's now at that crucial stage. Any input you have would be appreciated at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Porgy and Bess. Cheers.--BaronLarf 01:59, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Pol Pot

done. the big thing that got me on that article was my inability to edit the date inaccuracies. J. Parker Stone 20:29, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Daniel Ortega

Thanks for the note. I've been noticing POV creep on both the Ortega article and the Sandinista article but haven't had time to get into them. The POV in the Sandinista article consists mostly of Trey Stone sprinkling in repetitious and somewhat inaccurate references to Marxist and Cuban influences. It's true that the Sandinistas were influenced by both Marx and Cuba, but he makes it sound like they started out without any Marxist ideas and those got snuck in later. I think he also exaggerates the Cuban influence and makes it sound like Nicaragua was simply a client state of Cuba. There is also some language about Sandinista human rights abuses that is poorly-sources and excessive, and Trey chopped out some perfectly accurate statements about U.S. interference in Nicaragua elections since 1990, replacing it with the unsourced and untrue claim that the U.S. has not exerted any influence at all.

With regard to Daniel Ortega, I think there is a place for some of the assertions that have been added lately. Lots of people (including many Sandinistas) are unhappy with Ortega's heavy-handed control of the FSLN, and there has been quite a bit of understandable speculation (although there is no proof) that he had a hand in the murder of Carlos Guadamuz (whose name is misspelled as Guadamus in the recent edit). However, it is over the top and POV pushing to simply label Ortega a "dictator." He led a revolutionary movement that overthrew a dictator and is the first example in a very long time of a revolutionary who came to power through force of arms but left voluntarily when he lost an election. He's not a saint, but the Sandinista-bashers shouldn't be allowed to portray him and the FSLN as devils either.

I have a friend who lived in Nicaragua for the better part of a decade who might be interested in doing some editing on those articles. I'll give her a call and see if I can get her hooked on Wikipedia. ;-) --Sheldon Rampton 11:03, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Magdoff

Viajero: Can you cite point by point which sources you are challenging? Thank you.nobs 17:38, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

Be advised: a vote to Merge was the result --> Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Conspiracy allegations about Harry Magdoff; in good faith, there was a compromise understanding to limit its contents to the essential paragraph on the Harry Magdoff article. nobs 22:02, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Admin needed

Could you please take a look at [1] He has since become even more of a disruption since my post. Thanks. 172 | Talk 17:53, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

BTW, you might also want to take a look at this VfD. 172 | Talk 19:02, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Personal attacks

Why is it that the best defense which can be culled by you in support of massive deletions of material is to repeatedly state that I and others are engaging in such acts as "McCarthyite smears"? It is not productive and it establishes nothing but the fact that as an administrator you do not feel you need to adhere to certain Wikipedia rules, like on personal attacks. And yet, my "McCarthyite smear" represents the most extensive and constructive effort to verify the material put forward that has been made so far....--TJive 20:13, July 27, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Keetoowah

Hi Viajero: I took your advice and opened Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration#Keetwoowah. —Theo (Talk) 11:49, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Nobs01 strikes again

Old version:

Victor Navasky, editor and publisher of The Nation, a publication which has itself had two correspondents identified in the VENONA decrypts, has written an editorial highly critical of the interpretation of recent work on the subject of Soviet espionage:

Nobs01 version[2]:

[edit] My RFA

Thanks again, Viajero, for nominating me for adminship. Please let me know if I can help with any administrative responsibilities, or if you have any problems with the way I use the admin tools. Cheers. --BaronLarf 00:33, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for finishing up the edits on the Helen Hunt article. I would have finished it up but I had to leave for a little while. Dismas 21:02, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Re: RfArb

In case you didn't noticed, Theo Clarke opened an Request for Arbitration for Keetoowah about ten days ago: Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration#Keetoowah. Two ArbCom members have voted to accept it, but much to my astonishment, two others have voted to reject it. I know you were thinking along these lines awhile ago -- care to add your voice? It would be helpful. I am contemplating adding a comment or two as well. -- Viajero | Talk 20:58, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

I've added a few comments on the topic. Kelly Martin 21:24, August 15, 2005 (UTC)

I have filed another request for Arbitration, this one against Ultramarine; you commented on his RfC. Septentrionalis 17:49, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

An image that you uploaded, :Image:Artifacto-1.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Fairuz

Great job again. I didn't notice that bulk addition of Oct. 20th. I believe that the anon is obsessed with Fairuz. -- Svest 21:40, 25 October 2005 (UTC)  Wiki me up™

[edit] Mar del Plata Summit of the Americas

Hello again! Would you be interested in keeping on eye on this article? We can expect a lot of big news coming out of the Summit in the next few days. 172 | Talk 00:13, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the links by email. I was looking forward to making the article on the summit as comprehensive as it should, but not the topic seems to be totally overshadowed by the events in Peru and France. 172 | Talk 07:54, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Page deletion

I page which is part of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Anti-war (of which you are listed as a member) is up for deletion. It is The Left and Opposition to War, you can see its entry at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Left and Opposition to War. It would be helpfull if you could add your opinion.--JK the unwise 12:52, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Interesting times...

Nice to see your name crop up on my watchlist; it's been a while. Yes, I think we can look fwd to a flurry of editing activity on various Peru-related articles over the coming months. Anyone who reads that Miami Herald article and Googles for "la cantuta massacre" or "barrios altos massacre" gets pointed here. (Btw, the herald is registration only, and I've never bothered, but I caught the same story (or at least a similar one) on some similar site: byline 'Tyler Bridges'?)

[edit] Important AfD

Hi. If you have time please take a look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of modern day dictators. I'm a bit worried that the main protagonist for the keep side is threatening to reverse the long-established consensus against creating historical categorization schemes on Wikipedia based on editors' original research. If you are interested, arguments against generating such a list have been stated and restated over the course of several years at Talk:List of dictators. Thanks. 172 20:55, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia Anti-war project, push to get a featured article b4 Xmass

February 15, 2003 anti-war protest, an article which is part of the WikiProject Anti-war of which you are listed as a member, has been recently rated A-class by the Version 1.0 Editorial team (see here) This means that it is considered to be of good quality. The Anti-war project has yet to achieve a featured article but with a little pushing I feel we could get this article up to FA standards. To this end I have put the article up for peer review, if you could help make this a brilliant article that would be much appreciated. Please give your comments at Wikipedia:Peer review/February 15, 2003 anti-war protest or on the article's talk page. Fingers crossed for a FA before Xmass.--JK the unwise 13:03, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Lilian Cristina Aya Ramirez

Do you know anything about Lilian Cristina Aya Ramirez? The entry claims that she is a Venezuelan politician close to Hugo Chavez who was part of the Venezuelan branch of the Shining Path. It seems to me quite possible that this is just some absurd claim by a Venezuelan right-winger who wants to paint Chavez up as a Senderista, which he obviously isn't. But I've never heard of Lilian Cristina Aya Ramirez, nor have I ever heard of the group that the page claims is the Shining Path branch. --Descendall 23:04, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Carmen

Hello, I would like to know if you could go over the Carmen page. I've added a lot of info, but from the FAC request, I've found my writing style to be lacking brilliance. I think as an experienced Wikipedian, you might be able to help me. --Alexs letterbox 10:23, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Magdoff

I just learned that Harry Magdoff passed away, I was going to edit his page here (considering the nonsense about him before User:Nobs01 finally got banned for a year) when I saw you had changed it already.

I also looked at your last 50 edits to see how active you were and saw #50 was in September. I guess you've become disillusioned with Wikipedia, something that happened a while ago for me. I am currently creating a corpus of articles with a GFDL or similar license on wikis like Red Wiki, Anarchopedia, Dkosopedia, Demopedia, Infoshop's OpenWiki and Sourcewatch. Thus I have none of the headaches associated with Wikipedia, although none of these have the momentum of Wikipedia. Ruy Lopez 01:15, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi Viajero. Is there any chance you could provide a fair use rationale for Image:Rigoberta Menchu.jpg? --Nick Boalch ?!? 11:39, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

You're the guy who put in the "disinfo" about priests roaming the streets of post earthquake 1755 Lissabon hanging heretics. Kudos! "Rectify article submit ante filing"! He who controls the past controls the future!

[edit] Image Tagging Image:PabloCasals pipe.jpg

Warning sign
This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:PabloCasals pipe.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Rv War "List of political parties in Peru"

User:Soman has started a revert war in the List of political parties in Peru article. He made a bunch of stub articles (rarely more that one sentence and none with sources) for a bunch of, for the most part, small relatively unknown political parties and put them on the thread. User:Messhermit reverted it and asked to talk it out in the talk page and then the war began. You can see it all in the page history. I ask that some action be taken.-Jersey Devil 05:13, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

I did not initiate a revert war. Messhermit did. A study of the history of that page will clarify that. He also made a proposal on the talk page which, IMHO, has no grounds in terms of wikipedia policy (merging articles relating to separate political entities into a single article). The main source of the articles, which of course needs to be added in the respective articles, is from a document from ONPE, [8]. I also object to the statement that most of the parties would have been small or unknown. The list includes many parties that played an important role in a certain political context, but folded long ago. Also, there are many short-lived, but not necessarily unimportant, alliances between political parties included. --Soman 12:17, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikiproject anti-war, Article improvement drive

February 15, 2003 anti-war protest an article from the WikiProject Anti-war, which you are listed as a member of, has been nominated for the Article Improvement Drive (by me ).

It is an article about a day of much importance both to the history of the anti-war movement and to general discussion of the Iraq war. With a little work from experienced editors it could gain FA status.

[edit] User talk page deletion

Why was User talk:Davenbelle deleted? It is my understanding that we don't delete user talk pages, because they represent community contributions, may contain warnings, and do not belong to the user. Thanks, -Will Beback 00:30, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. I asked because another editor, user:Paroxysm, cited your action to justify the deletion of his own former talk page, user talk:24ip, which contained various old warnings, etc. After posting this note I found that Wikipedia:User page is surprisingly permissive. I'd heard various admins and others make comments indicating it wasn't permitted, and left a note on Wikipedia talk:User page asking for clarification, but hadn't received a response. You didn't do anything wrong, apparently, nor did user:24ip, but I think that the guideline should be clearer. Cheers, -Will Beback 07:27, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Charles_Mingus.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Charles_Mingus.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

[edit] Red Sand

I am suspicious of all the recent material from the "KGB archives." All intelligence agencies boast about their exploits--and often it is mostly hyperbole and rumor. Don't have the book, but some of the edits seem to state as fact what should be identified as unverified claims from a partisan source.--Cberlet 14:39, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sandinista article

I realize you don't have much time at the moment, but I would like to draw your attention to an edit yesterday by TDC to the Sandinista article. [9] Given earlier evidence of his shabby "scholarship", notably with the Neruda article, these edits need to be rigorously examined. Could you lend a hand? Viajero | Talk 09:47, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

"After a Cuban reorganization of the FSLN structure and tactics?" What utter crap. This looks like TDC is again using a tactic he has used before: writing a version that even he knows is not neutral, by way of staking out a negotiating position. Which, in my view, is a waste of everybody's time, including his.
It will probably be Sunday before I get a chance to take a real look at this. And, I should add, it's not a topic where I can really claim to be an expert, though I certainly know quite a bit. -- Jmabel | Talk 21:09, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimedia Conferentie in Nederland!

Beste,

Er wordt een Wikimedia Conferentie in Nederland georganiseerd. Er is al een voorlopig programma met lezingen van Jimbo Wales, Kurt Jansson en vele anderen, workshops en discussies over bijvoorbeeld de Easy Timeline, pywikipediabot en de toekomst van wiki[p/m]edia. Het zou me leuk lijken als je ook kon komen! Meld je snel aan op de inschrijfpagina, want we moeten snel weten hoeveel mensen er ongeveer komen! Stuur deze uitnodiging vooral ook door naar anderen die geïnteresseerd zouden kunnen zijn door {{subst:user:Effeietsanders/wcn}}~~~~ op hun overlegpagina's te plakken. Hoe meer zielen, hoe meer vreugd. Met vriendelijke groet,
effeietsanders 22:28, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Georg Solti.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Georg Solti.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 16:59, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair-use images removed from your user page

Hello, Viajero. I've removed Image:Callas as Anna Bolena.jpg and Image:Amauta portada.jpg from your user page, as they are copyrighted images that are being used under claims of fair use. Unfortunately, by Wikipedia policies, no fair-use images can be used on user pages; please see the ninth item of the Wikipedia fair-use policy and Wikipedia:Removal of fair use images. These images have not been deleted from any articles. If you have any questions, please let me know. —Bkell (talk) 22:16, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Martha Chávez

Things seem to be heating up at Martha Chávez. Truth be told, they are getting much more hot that I would have wished. I mention this because I know that you know a great deal about modern Peruvian politics, and may wish to weigh in. --Descendall 03:41, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Although you have no made a single edit to this article, you somehow have become the topic of the greatest debate on the talk page. It's truely odd. You might want to check it out. --Descendall 19:05, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
No problem. To be honest, I never really saw myself as sticking up for you. Sticking up for common sense, I suppose. Unfortunately, Shining Path and Alberto Fujimori seem to be in total chaos right now. AAAAA seems to be convinced that Soman and I are actually Shining Path cadre or something, even to the point of inserting information about "The Sweden Cell" into the SL article (I think Soman is Swedish). Perhaps it's a good thing; the day that a bunch of ultra-violent fanatical Maoists like the Shining Path can be accused of sitting around editing Wikipedia will be the day that Peru will be able to breathe easy. --Descendall 19:50, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Benny Morris.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Benny Morris.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
