[edit] Thanks for the Barnstar

¡Hola, Rosamelia! Muchas gracias for the Barnstar for Container Security Initiative, which was one of my earliest attempts to create a serious article not by my domain knowledge but by basic research. I wish I could say it lead to much more of this work, but I'm afraid I've become so preoccupied with Wikiquote that my Wikipedia work has suffered. That's also why it took me so long to thank you properly. I really appreciate the kudos. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 05:03, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Il Divo's Concert in Malaysia

Hi Rosa, to answer your question :)) Well, when Sebastian talks, his voice is more or less like David, Urs and Carlos but when he sings.. my girl friend and I just can’t help from smiling. I wanted to ask him why didn’t he try to make his voice to be more manly (ha ha ha), but we were not allowed to meet them in person. Their schedules are very tight, they flew to Singapore the next day. Yes, he could sing high notes and I believe his voice reaches the tenor’s range but he has lots more to learn. Until then, he is just a pop singer to me. What a waste, he should have seen his potential, he could be better if he works harder.David as usual just can’t stop amaze me with his gigantic voice! There was one time .. oh god, I felt like want to jump to the stage singing with them (push Seb’s aside, hehehe). I don’t want to offend experience singers like Pavarotti and Carreras but from by hearing, David is far better than them. I went to Carreras concert last year, though his voice is awesome but he is not as powerful as David! I never get a chance to see Pavarotti’s live yet. I pity Urs, his voice is damn great but he didn’t get much chance to sing solo like Carlos, Seb and David! Poor that man.. My ranking in Il Divo’s has always been David – Urs – Carlos and the consolation prize goes to your dear, Seb.I have no comment about Carlos, his voice is great as a baritone but there are times he tried to overshadow David. LOL, he never made it! I didn’t bring the camera because I was told we can’t take photos but many people at the behind row didn’t care. They were lucky while I am not because my seat is just the second row after the stage. The front seats were reserved to some VIP, I think or people from Sony BMG. The concert was great, if only I have the time, I will follow their Asia tour! Well done Il Divo! But what I hate the most are the girls .. I don’t know whether they enjoyed the marvelous voices or the guys. The screamed like mad dogs, lucky most of them sat at the back rows. Overall, the night was great! If i were to tell you how I feel, I think it would take days to express how I feel, the concert was damn great. The 2 hours concert is just not enough to me! David rocks! - Jay 06:49, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

About the screaming girls, they did that every time those singers open up their mouth to sing. I don’t mind if they wanna do it while Seb was singing (Seb received the “loudest” continues mad dogs screaming, and I just cant' figure out why) but when David goes to high notes and they start to scream out loud, I felt like I want to scream “SHUT UP U BACK THERE!!”

I noticed among all, Carlos has this kind of “flirting eyes” when those girls were screaming. David just smiled and waved at them (oh .. that makes them screamed louder). As for Seb, he is as usual, smiling with his baby face and then he would look at Urs (and that kills all the girls there, many girls shed their tears.. oh silly!!!!) , while Urs is behaving so gentlemen, he is a cool guy, I would say “he is a down to earth kind of man”. He smiles and nods/waves a bit, that’s all.

At that time I was wondering what my girlfriend had in mind. I know she likes Davd’s voice as much as I do, suddenly I felt so damn jealous and can’t stop imagining me replacing his place up there on the stage (actually I thought of jump to the stage and push Seb’s aside). Ohh.. she can’t stop talking about David’s voice in the car until we reached home.. actually until I turned off the light to sleep. (yet.. she still said “that was awesome” in the dark)

The performance was so much spectacular and the crowds were much bigger compared to Carreras’s concert (full house actually). I don’t like Tenors who sing solo, I prefer in group because of the combination of voices actually makes opera voices sound so beautiful to my ears but, if David goes solo and sing kind of songs like the Three Tenors , I think I will still buy the album and watch his concert. I bought the Three Tenors CD long ago, listened less than 10 minutes, and end up giving it to my friend because I just could not enjoy listening to old men screaming in the melody I don’t get it.

Rosa, if you could tell me.. why Il Divo’s fans (the girls including you) love Sebastian more than others? Look at the poll in Il Divo’s forum, Seb is the favorite among all. What do you ladies see in him? Please, I’m begging u to fill me in.

PS- As I said, if I were to tell you how I feel, it would take days, yet, I doubt it will be over. The performance/concert is so damn spectacular and it impressed me so much, I have never said this before to any singers! Those who read this and have never seen Il Divo's live in concert, I would encourage you to go. You would not regret, well, unless you hate "popera"! Let me say this again "That was a spectacular, stunning, impressive and magnificent concert and should not be missed" - Jay 07:11, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Gracias!

[edit] Sébastien Izambard

First, I didn't add any images. And second, the article only lists a single source. If there are other sources, please identify them as such. Rklawton 00:51, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

I checked the diffs. You and I edited at the same time, and I think we must have had an edit conflict that made it appear I added the image. I didn't. I've never even seen that image before. Next, the one-source tag is accurate and correct. If I remove the tag, then other editors are less likely to notice that the article needs work. That's counterproductive. By leaving this tag in place, others editors are on notice to help out. The tag itself won't cause this article to be deleted, so there's nothing to worry about. Rklawton 01:19, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

There isn't a tag that reads "I really really honestly used sources, but I just didn't list them so could you find them for me" tag. Until someone creates such a tag, the tag used is verifiably accurate, whereas your claims are not verifiable. If you would spend a few minutes looking up a few independent reviews for this musician rather then edit talk pages, you'll be able to cite the article and happily remove this tag. Rklawton 01:36, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

The "needs reference" tag is fine as it is also true. However, you should admit that anyone looking at that article would agree that it has only one source. Indeed, you are the only one here who could know otherwise. I certainly understand your defensiveness. It's no fun having someone else identify your own mistakes, though it happens to everyone. You'd make a much better impression on people, and they'd certainly respect you more, if you just said "yeah, I really screwed that one up" instead of removing an accurate tag and making excuses. I know that confessing mistakes runs contrary to an attorney's training, but it's something you'll want to employ in social settings lest you risk "sounding like a lawyer." Oh, and feel free to lecture me on civility any time, I can always use it. Rklawton 02:11, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Good catch on that copyvio image. I couldn't get past the Yahoo link to actually see the image. I posted a note in the image's talk page asking for the original source only a few minutes ago. Cheers, Rklawton 02:47, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Angry Spiders from Outer Space

Thank you for the laugh point! And double thanks for the "new message" joke, you little scamp :) Totnesmartin 18:58, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Carlos Marín

I support diacritics in the topic's name with us-ascii redirect. It fully satisfies wiki policies but some editors still move the diacritics to us-ascii instead of the redirect - which actually many editors think move from diacritics to us-ascii is wrong (loss of the information). ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 21:06, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

You hit the point :) If there is a problem in the article - nothing happens - it is just an article. Btw. your practical joke is simply great, I was caught (twice :-[ ) Happy editing :D ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 22:30, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Maybe you would like to participate on this similar problem, please see this if you don't mind . ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 23:56, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 20:05, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Il Divo’s photos

The admin (so happen to be a photographer) says the photos were great compared to other fan’s photos. Oh, my aunt would be very pleased if I told her this. She bought 2 cameras (Sony and Panasonic) just for her cats actually (we are cat’s people, I have 4 cats and she has 12 cats). She is very used to “moving” and “rolling” objects who just don’t understand a simple command like “stay still”. My uncle has no comments with her collections of photos with David and Carlos. Lucky I am not my uncle. She even have photos with them at the hotel, airport and in the limo. Imagine that.. she is 57.. my uncle is almost 70. uhm…woman!! Oh yea, she was with me in Kuala Lumpur concert and went back to Singapore the next day to catch up with Singapore concert. Crazy huh? - Jay 06:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Barnstar

Thank you so much for the oddball barnstar! I really appreciate it! You realy thought the article was that good? Thanks again, ==<b><font face="Brush Script MT" color="#0000FF" size="5">Anonymous Dissident 06:03, 30 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Flowers

Thanks a lot of the little note :-) With a name such as yours, it is not surprising you like flowers ;-)

Now, you should not show me that you are a law student, I could try to enroll you in various activities... I do not think we have any legal contact in south america... Colombia is portuguese or spanish speaking ? Sorry for not being sure... Anthere

[edit] Mario Lopez

Thanks for contributing to the Mario López discussion (Talk:Mario López), but please remember that Wikipedia is not a personal soapbox. (WP:NOT#SOAP). You can make the point about American families choosing to ignore Spanish spelling rules WITHOUT editorializing about whether or not they should be considered "latino" (which, since we're on the subject of spelling rules, should be capitalized), or whether they were good students, or whether Latinos are portrayed as "sexy" in the media, etc., etc. It's not appropriate for Wikipedia. Vandelay 02:01, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] David Miller

David Miller shouldn't be a primary disambiguation, and many of the links to that article are to the wrong place. I've put in a requested move at Talk:David Miller. Gene Nygaard 17:21, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Devil

We are compiling a (totally scary) list of legal tasks to take care of :-) From legal threats to contracts, via domain names and trademarks issue. I think that I'll come back to you one day to suggest things :-)))) Anthere 23:39, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Titles

Hola! To be honest, I don't like the proposed text. It is clear that almost in all cases English books etc. will use version without diacritics. I would support the use of native versions of names. I think the future is painted in diacritics colours on EN Wikipedia, it is inevitable. - Darwinek 23:54, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Czus! Lol. :) Well, I think Wikipedia becomes more and more international and it's the only way to go. - Darwinek 09:59, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't doubt that EN wikipedia is much more INTERNATIONAL wikipedia instead of anything else, the key is in the internationality not in the englishonality :) ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 13:08, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Last word

Fine by me; we're largely talking to each other anyway. (Of course, you may underestimate yourself; if your "last word" is a new argument, it may convince me. ) Septentrionalis PMAnderson 18:45, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Also I see you noted the motion to discount the "Polish cabal". You are coming in in the middle of the story; some Polish editors have a well-earned reputation for sockpuppetry. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 18:48, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] re:

Thanks for the notice, victory is ours ;-) :-) Requests for moves have to wait at least 5 days until administrators move them even if there is a consensus already. It is a procedure. ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 08:50, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Like sh, similar when you pronounce shall or Shell (company). ≈Tulkolahten≈^≈talk≈ 17:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Polaners

Hola :) I came to your page due to your blanking of the practical joke in my talk. I guess you were correct about that one, I had no idea it was considered undesirable by the userpage guideline. (I would have liked if you had left a note about it though). Anyways, just to tell you the external link to the Polaners webpage in the userpage about you doesn't work anymore. Rosa 14:07, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know! I've updated the URL.

FYI, this is a new rule, so I manually went through more than 90 pages removing this joke and leaving a link to Wikipedia:User page#Simulated MediaWiki interfaces in the summary as an explanation. —David Levy 14:41, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Judicial Branch of Colombia

Hi Rosa, I was wondering if you could please help the WP:COLA with the Colombian Judicial branch and since you are a lawyer (or student to become one) you probably have the knowledge and resources to create and expand these articles.[1] Please consider it and tell me what you think... thanks --((F3rn4nd0 ))^{(BLA BLA BLA)} 23:44, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re Talk:Muslim

Hola, a través del talk page de ese artículo llegué a tu página de usuario y sólo quería decirte que está muy bacana. Aunque creo que en la sección de presidentes Thomas Jefferson brilla por su ausencia. ;) Adiós, Rosa 19:41, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Gracias Rosa. Es un placer conocerte. Tuve que preguntar a mi amigo Sandro que está viviendo en Casablanca sobre el significado del bucano/a. No sé porqué falté Jefferson y JFK. Quizá porque consideraba siempre a Jeff más un hombre de conocimiento que un presidente. Los agregué ambos a mi lista. También tengo que agregar a Colombia a mi lista de países que deseo visitar. Eso dependería quizá de Sandro:) Me encanta tu página de usuario también. Demasiado interesante. -- FayssalF - ^{Wiki me up ®} 15:12, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Džín Nigárd?

I wonder if Bendono, Darwinek or any of the others who supported the motion catch on...I wonder how that name looks in Japanese, Polish, Slovak etc. lol Rosa 09:41, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

A late response, but I just noticed. Which motion are you referring to? I suppose something regarding diacritics, but not sure what your point is. Bendono 11:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Opera arias to David and uhmm... one song for the spanish boy
