[edit] Bahía Blanca

Welcome to Wikipedia. I note that you have been working hard and added some important information to Bahía Blanca. As zou have been working, I have been trying to pull the article back into Wikipedia’s style and norms, such as headings and the name of the Province and Partido, for which we have precedents. Unfortunately in subsequent edits, these have been undone. This detracts from the article which would otherwise be very good.

Can I suggest that you take a minute to look at WP:MOS (Manual of style) and WP:OWN for an idea of the issues. As I am away and unable to give full attention to this, I have put a cleanup tag on the article that will hopefully attract another editor to give zou a hand in making this article acceptable. It would also be helpful if you could give references and footnotes for claims made in the text. Otherwise it is very good.

You maz be interested in Wikipedia:Argentina-related regional notice board.

[edit] License tagging for Image:DSC00099.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:DSC00099.JPG.

[edit] Reply to "invitation"

Hi there ! Yes I am Argentinean, however I live in the UK. I have added some articles on Argentina, actually on my city, some of its main features, its people and all those things. Sometimes I get quite confused about the rules of this encyclopaedia which I do not quite understand yet. It tends to be frustrating after spending time in doing research, adding pictures and writing that the text tends to be modified -often times felt by me as without common sense but arbitrary decisions-. Anyway, I will keep trying. Moi, je sais que il n'y a des petits efforts mais des efforts petits. On va essaier d'en faire tout en redigeant tout-ce qu'on peut. A tout a l'heure.

Pardonnez-moi la manque des accents. Les ordinateurs anglaises n'en ont pas, d'habitude.

Au revoir.

Hi, bertoni, and welcome aboard. I understand your frustration when seing your work being modified, but that's the spirit of a wiki. A good tip on editing articles is to focus on the topic of the article; for instance, you've added a lot of information and even images to the Bahía Blanca article that is not directly connected to it. Monte Hermoso, Sierra de la Ventana, César Milstein, etc. have their own articles, and even though the most relevan information can be duplicated for readability, they shouldn't be expanded in the BB article. Titles sich as "General aspects, shopping, administration, museums, tourism in the area" aren't the best option. I suggest you take a look at the manual of style, check some good cities articles such as Buenos Aires, Sydney, Stockholm, etc., and perhaps even give an eye to Wikipedia:WikiProject Cities. Don't get me wrong, I'm really glad you've joined the Wikipedia, and hope you'll continue with your contributions; they surely help improve the wikipedia. Take care, and good wiking!

Acelga!? Just to tell you you're doing a great job with the Bahía-related articles (Naposta Stream, Coat of Arms of Bahía Blanca, Bahia Blanca Partido, Bolsa de Comercio de Bahía Blanca, etc). Just don't forget to add the appropiate categories to the articles. BTW, I forgot to tell you, I also don't have accents in my keyboard, no problemo! Mariano(t/c) 07:21, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Escudo bahia blanca.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Escudo bahia blanca.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Image souces

Hi, I notice you have uploaded a great many photos and a few maps claimed to be public domain without any kind of source (who created them? When where they taken etc). Wikipeda require all images to have source information so people can trace them back to the original creators and verify the copyright status. In additio a most of the images that did have sources gave no hint that the images where released to the public domain as you claim (the absense of a copyright notices does not make something public domain). Unless this information is provided I'm afraid the images will have to be deleted. Problem images include: Image:South america2.jpg, Image:Montehermoso2.jpg, Image:Bolsadecomercio1.jpg, Image:Bb3.jpg, Image:Bahiablanca10.jpg, Image:Bahiablanca5.jpg, Image:Garlatti2.jpg, Image:Laxague1.JPG, Image:Biblioteca rivadavia fachada grande.jpg, Image:Banco nacion fachada grande.jpg, Image:Frente uns alem.jpg, Image:Garlatti1.jpg, Image:MapaBHI1.jpg, Image:Cerroventana1.jpg, Image:EstuaryBHI.JPG, Image:Bahiablanca4.jpg, Image:Teatro Municipal de Bahia Blanca.jpg, Image:Barrantes.jpg, Image:Milstein3.jpg and Image:Casacultura.jpg (whew, think that was all of them). --Sherool (talk) 21:31, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Coat of arms of bahia blanca

A tag has been placed on Coat of arms of bahia blanca, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to a nonexistent page. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

[edit] HVRE

HVRE has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this is more a dictionary definition than an encyclopedia article. Please review Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary for the relevant policy. If you can expand the article to address these concerns, please do so, or explain your plans on the talk page.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod notice, the deletion process will stop, but if an editor is still not satisfied that the article meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion for consensus.
