The polical campaing via the TV is full of lies. You know what did the Nazis don´t you? I will tell you. If you tell a lie to many times it will become the truth. This is what the Nazis did and Calderon and the PAN is doing this via TV, I´d like you could see at least one spot of him. Regards User:Juanlopez Thank you very much for correcting my user page User:Juanlopez. Hello Joseph. If possible, I'd like your support in including one sentence in the AMLO entry regarding the number of Mexicans who believe that fraud took place in the election. I sourced the poll twice, and it was deleted. Moreover, the person who deleted it believed it was not pertinent. I clearly disagree, as is the high number of Mexicans who believe fraud took place before and during the election that has given rise to the 42% figure. I'd appreciate your assistance. 69.211.18.106 01:22, 3 December 2006 (UTC) [edit] Socialistsmade this userbox thought you might like. template:User Socialist.

[edit] Deletion of 'liberals wikipedians' categoryHi. I saw your listed in this category which is up for deletion. Hoped you'd like to vote in favor of keeping it... Thanks! Larix 22:59, 19 December 2005 (UTC) [edit] Infoboxes on AU Prime Ministers' articlesHi there Australia boy. I note that you've taken to adding a "Religion" section to the infoboxes on several of the Australian PMs' articles. While their particular religion may in some instances have some bearing on their public life, simply labelling them as 'Roman Catholic', 'Anglican', or whatever in this way is probably not too informative. Indeed, in many instances a PM's religious beliefs (insofar as they are publicly known) will be difficult to summarise by a one- or two-word expression. By all means, if an individual's religous affiliation has been of significance to their achievements, then it can be appropriately mentioned and discussed in the main body of the article itself. After some discussion at the Australian Wikipedians' Notice Board, consensus seems to favour its removal, and I've started to revert these changes. If you have another opinion on the matter, you are invited to discuss it further over here. Kind regards, --cjllw | TALK 04:04, 21 December 2005 (UTC) [edit] CAoWSince you are listed as a Roman Catholic, I figured I'd send you this. Wikipedia:Catholic Alliance of wikipedia has been nominated for Deletion.

I've removed your name from the list of administrators. If you'd like to become a Wikipedia admin, you must first request it at the requests page, usually after you've been around for a few months. However, you don't have to be an admin to do things like reverting vandalism, cleaning up articles, and helping write policy: see the community portal for some ideas for tasks that need doing. Thanks, Mindspillage (spill yours?) 17:22, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Pointless EditsHi, could you please explain why you changed the order of the two religions in the Canberra article? If you are attempting to present your "Point of View" by manipulating mentions of religions, please be aware that this is highly against wikipedia policy. --Martyman-(talk) 08:48, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Ang Dating DaanHi. I added the two critical links again. The article Ang Dating Daan is not an advertising for the religion, but should be merely information about the religion, which includes also comments critically about the religion. Hence, these critical links are also needed for the article. For your info: I am not for or against this religion, and do not care about it except for the Wikipedia article having a WP:NPOV. Thanks for your understanding -- Chris 73 | Talk 10:35, 29 December 2005 (UTC) [edit] Could you provide a source...... for this picture? Keep in mind that copyright law in Mexico doesn't work like in the U.S. and you may be infringing the rights of a Mexican author. Thanks. Rune.welsh 08:32, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Photographs of Mexican politiciansI had a look at your contributions list and I noticed that you uploaded a number of photographs of Mexican politicians. These suffer of the same problem as the Lázaro Cárdenas picture above, i.e. they lack a source but you still claim them to be released under the GFDL. The offending images are:
Please state a source for each image in their description page and tag them with {{fairusein|NAME OF ARTICLE}} as approppriate. If you refuse to comply after a reasonable period of time I'll make a note of this at the Administrator's notice board. If you have any questions about image copyrights in Mexico please don't hesitate to ask me in my talk page. Regards. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 20:23, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyrightsHi. You need to read Wikipedia:Copyrights and Wikipedia:Image use policy. None of the images you are uploading can be used by us. If you continue you will be blocked from editing. Thanks. Secretlondon 20:22, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Index_motif.gifThanks for uploading Image:Index_motif.gif. 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: Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 20:55, 31 January 2006 (UTC) [edit] Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Australia boyOut of curiousity, are you planning on completing this self-nomination?

If you can make it, that'll be great because there'll be quite a few interesting developments to discuss, as well as just getting to know each other. Please add yourself to the list at Wikipedia:Meetup/Sydney if you are able to come, as we as provide suggestions as to the time and location of the event. Thanks, and I hope to see you there. Cheers, enochlau (talk) 13:20, 1 February 2006 (UTC) [edit] TimezoneThe change to move the list to a separate article was agreed by consensus in the talk page. You have twice now put the list back without any discussion in talk. If you have a good reason for moving the list from a separate article into one huge article, then discuss it in talk first please. Stephen.frede 11:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC) [edit] Copyright problems with Image:Marcos i.jpgAn image that you uploaded, Image:Marcos i.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.

I'm a member of WikiProject Argentina. I saw your edits to the article on Néstor Kirchner and wanted to ask you to discuss such large changes in the talk page first. Unfortunately your additions came right after some major vandalism (an anti-Kirchnerist!) and I've had no choice but to revert everything in the article to the last "good" version. We've had these several users applying and re-applying the same extremely biased comments changes to the article for one or two days now. I'll try to restore what you added, but I think it'd be better if we worked on a draft outside the article and then change the whole thing in a single edit. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 10:37, 3 April 2006 (UTC) [edit] English levelI'm sorry to bother you with such a message, specially since I'm definitely not the most indicated person to do this observation, but considering this message I suggest you to modify in your user page the info-box that states you speak "English at a near-native level". Please don't get me wrong, there's no offence intended. Take care, and good wiking. Mariano(t/c) 08:39, 4 April 2006 (UTC) [edit] Image sizeHello. This is regarding your recent edit to the article Chile: Do not delete images from articles merely because you feel that their size is wrong. That is considered disruptive and is not helpful to the this project. Instead, consider making constructive edits, such as resizing an image that you think has an inappropriate size.

[edit] Re Eliseo SorianoYou removed the {{fact}} tag from the Eliseo Soriano article, but did not leave a cite to show that the information is accurate. I have replaced the tag. If corroborating information is not posted within a few days then I will remove both the tag AND the information because it seems very far fetched indeed.

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 an argument 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.

I thought that the Spaniards that went to Argao had done so in the 1840s or so. At least that's what I saw in the church records, what few Spaniards there were in town like that Mallorcan Capt. whose name I forgot that married a Mestiza. But then again, the most recent church records I went through were dated in the 1880s, so I guess it would make sense why I never noticed any Spaniard in Argao in the early to mid 20th century. Mamoahina 06:23, 1 September 2006 (UTC) I read about a mass migration out of Cebu, I thought it was in the 40s or so? I know it was to Mindanao, and I guess it was to Davao del Sur as you mentioned. So your Spanish ancestor went to Davao instead of Argao then? Mamoahina 05:50, 3 September 2006 (UTC) [edit] More on ArgaoI read about a mass migration out of Cebu, I thought it was in the 40s or so? I know it was to Mindanao, and I guess it was to Davao del Sur as you mentioned. So your Spanish ancestor went to Davao instead of Argao then? You mentioned the Carillo family of Argao, but the only information I have on what seems to be the oldest information I found on any of the Carillos comes from the Argao San Miguel Church records. Bartolome Carillo married Semperesa Fuentes, had a son Sotero who married Celestina Sabado on Jan. 20, 1853. I didn't concentrate on the Carillos in my research, unless there was a different Carillo family that arrived recently, as in the 20th century. Because the Carillos I listed, the church records identified them as all "indios". There were a few Mestizos mentioned in the church records and in fact, there was a Lucero female mestiza that married that Mallorcan captain I mentioned (whose name I forgot at the moment) and their descendants were listed as Mestizos. In any case, I did do a search in the Catálogo Alfabético de Apellidos on Carillo and did not find that spelling but did find "CARRILLO" which is how many Latinos in the U.S. spell that surname. However, there were others in Argao that spelled it "Carrillo" and I've seen the spelling changes with surnames like Umeres/Umerez and Quintanar/Kintanar, which leads me to believe that Carillo/Carrillo are the same. Plus, the fact that many towns would have the town's people take on surnames with letters usually beginning with the same letter and that Argao had surnames like Camello, Caminade, Campaner, Campomanes/z, Campilla, Camposo, Canada, Canedo, Capadñgan, Carredo, Catalan, Camasura and Calledo (and many more), all if you notice beginning with CA, coupled with the fact that Argao's share of "Spaniards" or other foreigners like a few Chinese were actually mentioned in records, validates that the Carrillo/Carillo family did have their surname selected from the Catálogo Alfabético de Apellidos. Remember, only those who had carried their surnames for at least 3 generations previously (which means the Chinese and the Spaniards) were able to continue their surname among their families. Now you mentioned 1/4 Spanish, which means one of your grandparents (probably a grandfather?) was from Spain, right? Or were 2 of your grandparents half Spanish each thereby still giving the blood quantum of 1/4 Spanish? Mamoahina 05:50, 3 September 2006 (UTC) The well known Spaniards or half Spanish people I know from Argao and of whom I found in church records was a woman named Maria Taguenca Cabrera who married D. Celestino Cayetano Gumila. Celestino's father was the Mallorcan captain I mentioned, Cayetano was the surname. Maria however was the daughter of Mauricia Lucero and D. Geronimo Taguenca. Geronimo was half Spanish but took on the name Taguenca Cabrera in 1849 (Surname decree) which gave way to just Cabrera. Have you heard of Todd Lucero-Sales? He resides in Cebu City but is working more on the Lucero family and gave me details of Maria Cabrera's heritage although I found the marriage record of her mentioning the Mallorcan captain. So again, who exactly was the Spaniard in your family? I'll have to assume it was either your maternal grandfather or any of your grandmothers, but we know for a fact las Españolas were few in the Philippines, especially in the Visayas in the 20th century. By the way, you and I are close in age so I assume our grandparents were born within the same time, so we're talking very late 19th century to early 20th century. Mamoahina 17:23, 3 September 2006 (UTC) [edit] Query regarding removing a couple Felipe Calderón photosZscout370 has raised the issue at Talk:Felipe Calderón of removing the cropped photos due to the curved corners and having 4 fair use photos in a relatively small article. They are kind of jammed up at the top too, though they are appropriate for their sections. Now that he's president-elect, the article's likely to get bigger, though not necessarily his previous political career and early years sections. I'm ambivalent so far. I can see what Zscout is saying, but I wouldn't mind if they stayed in. TransUtopian 03:20, 7 September 2006 (UTC) [edit] SVGPlease do not replace SVG images with old PNG versions.

[edit] various1. Why do you think that the North American (maybe Australian, though I thought not) date ordering should be imposed on an article that didn't already use it? 2. There's in any case no point changing the order of date and month within a wikilink; the whole point of linking dates is that every reader sees them odered according to her own preference. 3. [edit] Gently pleaseYou have re-ordered my alter ego :) SatuSuro 11:39, 8 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Please use edit summariesWhen 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, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 19:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] User:JosephbotI have blocked the account User:Josephbot, which you created, as it uses the term "bot" which is reserved for actual Wikipedia bots and I cannot find a bot request. If I missed it or if you simply created the account before doing the request, please let me know and I'll unblock it. Also, if you intend to have a bot, you should create a user page for that account that identifies it and that you run it (see User:Cydebot or Category:Wikipedia bots for examples). Thanks! -- JLaTondre 15:09, 13 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Image:G hubie i.jpgThanks for uploading Image:G hubie i.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 that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself. 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Mosmof 13:22, 21 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] DatesJoseph! Please stop wikifying dates like 2001 in Australian politics articles. You should know by now that this is contrary to style. If you don't know I AM TELLING YOU NOW.

[edit] Bill RussellI noticed that you are a member of Wikiproject:National Basketball Association. I'd like to ask a favor of you: Bill Russell's article is a Featured Article Candidate and I'm worried that it may not pass merely because there are not enough reviewers looking it over. Would you mind looking it over and seeing if you feel it meets the criteria. If you have never done so before all you have to do is look over the criteria and see if it meets them. You can pass, fail, or stay neutral. Don't worry if you don't like anything in the article you can state so and usually people will work to improve it. Here is the candidacy page. Thanks in advance.
