I mistakenly thought that an edit by User:194.215.75.17 on December 28, 2005 was link spam. It was not, and so I've reverted it. I'm sorry for the inconvenience! -- Mikeblas 10:02, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

A link in this article is still in the Spam blacklist. Thus it can not be edited, someone who knows more about this should please fix it. 23 August 2007 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 194.122.139.242 (talk) 20:09, August 23, 2007 (UTC)

Yeap. this article should be re-written, and soon. This is one of the most important Latin American writers. Mariano(t/c) 08:49, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image

If someone could find an image that we could use for this article, it would be much appreciated.--Jersey Devil 22:10, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Discovery" vs. Contact

In the section on Open Veins, I changed the text "the European discovery of the New World" to "European contact with the New World." Minor, but I thought it was important.Khuryps 18:59, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Eduardogaleano.jpg

Image:Eduardogaleano.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
