[edit] {{Almería-geo-stub}}

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. This is partly in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies, and partly so that those who regularly deal with stub articles know what stub types are likely to need re-sorting soon. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 02:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Ah, Hello!

Hello, previously anonymous person! I'm happy to see you have finally decided to get an account. That will make editing so much easier and better, and make it much easier to communicate with you! As you without a doubt is aware, many of your earlier edits was seen as vandalism as it didn't follow Wikipedias policies on having a neutral point of view. See WP:NPOV for more information.

I have reverted many of your changes, as you as usual give no explanation, and they don't seem to be improvements, rather the opposite. Please give explanations, and also as above, discuss the new stubs, including I expect, the Granada geo-stub which you have used in many places. --Regebro (talk) 11:35, 27 May 2008 (UTC)


Very much of what you do is vandalism, and you know it, as you have repeatedly been warned, and have these edits reverted, but yet you persist. I have therefore reverted everything you do that is not an obvious improvement. If you want to improve Wikipedia, you need to follow the rules and procedure here, just like everybody else. It's that simple. I may be a nuisance to you, and that is good. I will continue to be a nuisance until you decide to make constructive edits. I'm happy to see that you are now talking to others here, and not just ignoring everybody and all the warnings you have got. That is good, because that means you can explain *why* you are making certain changes, and that means I don't have to revert them. --Regebro (talk) 11:36, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
And stop calling reverts "vandalism". Reverting your unexplained edits is not vandalism. Explain yourself instead. --Regebro (talk) 13:16, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Agree, this edit was not a vandalism reversal. Notice that all three flags that you removed already have a link to Spain, so it's not as if someone was trying to assert that they were independient countries, notice flags with similar status like the Santa Helena (translation: las tres banderas que quitastes ya tienen un enlace a España, así que no es como si alguien estuviese tratando de establecer que sean paises independientes, nótese que hay banderas con estatus similar, como la de Santa Helena) --Enric Naval (talk) 13:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
It's not an attempt to make them look independient territories, man, it's a usage of placong the flag of only the parts of the country that are on that place, notice how they use Flag_of_the_Madeira_Islands instead of Flag of Portugal. I advice you to not worry so much for this sort of details because they will cause you a lot of problems, but take care that there is a link to the country and that's all.
(translation: No es un intento de que parezcan territorios dependientes, hombre, es una costumbre que hay de poner la bandera de sólo las partes del país que están ese sitio, fíjate en como usan Flag_of_the_Madeira_Islands en lugar de Flag of Portugal. Te aconsejo que no te preocupes tanto por este tipo de detalles porque te causará un montón de problemas, sólo asegurate de que haya un enlace al país y ya está.)
I think that User:Regebro is aware of the legal status of Ceuta, Melilla and Canary Islands. I think that most of the time you are fighting for minor details. I'll see if I can help you two to find a middle ground.
(translation: Creo que User:Regebro es consciente del status legal de Ceuta, Melilla y las Islas Canarias. Creo la mayor parte del tiempo estais luchando por detalles menores. Veré si puedo ayudaros a los dos a encontrar un término medio) --Enric Naval (talk) 17:53, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Notice my changes here. I thnk that this list of subdivision type is better, and shoudl stop any fight about using municipality or province. Please leave the granada stub for now, since it's somewhat populated, and there is a similar category at Category:Granada_province_geography_stubs that looks to be ok. --Enric Naval (talk) 14:28, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

In response to your comment on my talk page (just so I'm sure you see it): I do not confuse anything. My reversions are not vandalism. I will leave you alone as soon as you have proven that you are willing to follow Wikipedias rules, considering that you before you created this account were not. Until then, I will continue to revert everything from you that you do not explain and are not obvious improvements. The whole thing is quite simple. Explain your edits. Follow Wikipedias rules, including WP:NPOV. Stop trying to inject obvious nationalist POV, like erasing all mentions of people being Basque and replacing that with Spanish and equal vandalism. --Regebro (talk) 07:04, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Use English

In reference to [1]:

I noticed that you have posted comments in a language other than English. When on the English-language Wikipedia, please always use English, no matter to whom you address your comments. This is so that comments may be comprehensible to the community at large. If the use of another language is unavoidable, please provide a translation of the comments. For more details, see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Thank you.

I don't speak spanish, but understand enough of that comment to tell you that you are incorrect. I also understand perfectly what you have said to me. Now you need to listen to what I say above. If you have trouble understanding my english, maybe you could ask for help translating that? --Regebro (talk) 07:09, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
