Hi!! Please can you help fill in the List of Brazilian films I am afraid it will be up for afd. I and a few other users are trying to fill the lists by country in. If you can add the details on the films already on wikipedia in year order from Category:Brailzian films and any others you know of from notable directors etc that would be a great help for WP Film sand Brazil!.

[edit] {{prod}}

I see you closed a prod on Rustam Akhmyarov (Chechen leader) back in June 2006.

{{prod}} was relatively new then I think, and nominators didn't always fulfill their obligation to tell the article's creator that they had prodded the article. This nominator, whoever it was, didn't tell me. I only came across this deletion because I was doing some housekeeping.

When you closed the {{prod}} you didn't record the reason it was nominated for deletion. It was probably due to a failure on my part to insert a phrase where I explicitly asserted notability.

I create stubs sometimes, when I am researching an article on one guy, and I come across a reference to a namesake, someone with the same name or a very similar name. So. I can see from my records that,while expanding the article on another Rustam Akhmyarov. Doing so prevents confusion later, when someone might conflate the two individuals.

I always provide at least one reference when I create these stubs.

For my records I would like to verify the reason the article was deleted. How difficult would it be for you to consult your records, and let me know?

Cheers! -- Geo Swan 22:09, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

The reason for prod nomination was- the only source article references an "Akhmadov", not an "Akhmyarov", and he's not referred to as a leader of the rebels. There's no basis for this substub. I think there's some confusion going on with the Gitmo detainee b/c of the similarity of the names.--Kungfu Adam (talk) 13:29, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

===== Small changes in "Brazil" article:

     I do not have the right to change the article "Brazil". Could you please replace the paragraph about the space agency by the following paragraphs (section of Science and Technology):

After a succesful enterpreneurship in the manufacturing of small and medium airplanes, Brazil is looking for developing space technology. This effort is being coordinated by the Brazilian Space Agency (Agencia Espacial Brasileira). We have already fabricated satellites and an astronaut has recently visited the international space station (traveling in a Russian spacecraft). However, we still need to make a working space launcher, our initial tests were unsuccesful (due to lack of funds and a certain embargo of parts from developed countries who consider this technology to be sensitive). Brazilian satellites are helping, for example, to monitor the Amazon region.

Brazilian agricultural throughput is being improved by the application of bio-technology. Recently, a project called Xylella fastidiosa Genome Project [Nature's paper] has decoded the genetic code of a plague that affects orange trees. We have also developed a medicine to control hypertension based upon rattlesnake's poison. Our flora and fauna provides a unique environment to discover new medicines.RobertomalanciniRoberto
