[edit] A good foundation

Here are some suggested further tasks for enterprising users:

• Adding more biographical information, possibly from the biography at www.julietavenegas.net
• Adding a photo (one without copyright restrictions) other than album cover art
• Adding chart information to the songs and albums

[edit] Birthplace

To: 201.143.0.69 & 201.143.3.6

I checked the official website and it confirms that she's born in Tijuana, Baja California, so I am going to revert your edits changing it to elsewhere. If you can produce evidence supporting the claim that she was born in Mexico City or Distrito Federal, by all means do so. wikinick 10:56, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Nick, there already is a Spanish version of this article

• Okay, I didn't notice. Above comment updated. wikinick 10:54, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

• • I've interviewed Julieta several times and she's told me she was born in Long Beach, California, raised in Tijuana. Her sister also confirmed this. You can check out the articles I've published in the San Diego Union-Tribune www.signonsandiego.com.

[edit] Factual Accuracy

To the person behind IP addresses starting with 201.143:

Please refrain from randomly changing facts such as birthplaces, birthdates, and whether someone won a grammy or not unless you have serious evidence to prove your side of the debate. I contend, as per this published news article, that Venegas did win a Latin Grammy for Best Vocal Rock Album, that she was born in Tijuana, Baja California, and that (given her age as stated relative to the article's publication date, and presuming that she was in fact born on November 24) she was born in the year of 1970. See here for an additional confirmation of that birthdate. Anyway, as such, I am reverting your changes until you can provide reasonable evidence to support your edits.

[edit] Anti-vandalism action taken

I have made a post to Wikipedia:Requests for Investigation concerning the vandalism conducted by the person behind IP addresses starting with 201.143 (and 201.130). Hopefully we can achieve some resolution of this issue and allow this article to accumulate useful, factual edits without needing reverts every month. Please see my above comments for reasons as to my taking this action. wikinick 22:25, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

• I received a reply to my post from Petros471 which is visible at my user page. I am going to take his/her advice and cite my sources of information in the article, as well as continuing to monitor the page for further vandalism, especially by the 201.143.x person. wikinick 07:55, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

If you check, you will find she was born in Long Beach. Personal interviews available with her online at many sources corroborate this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.227.248.168 (talk) 10:08, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
