Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Island of enchantment, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Island of enchantment is a redirect page resulting from an implausible typo (CSD R3).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Island of enchantment, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Great idea! I'm really glad that you are helping out with the list. I was thinking about doing a "clean-up" sweep on the list and ask others ,like PR4ever who has been active with the list, to help. I am sure that there are many names of non-notables in the list who do not even belong there. Maybe we can look at the "suspicious" entries and check out if they have a source which states their notablility. If they don't then out they go. What do you think? Tony the Marine (talk) 21:10, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• I have always maintained a control of the military section and I can check up the names in the educational section. Which section would you like to clean-up? Tony the Marine (talk) 21:46, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that only the new additions should post a reference. This is what I did. In the Judges section, I didn't recognize some of the names and I did a goggle search on them and checked to see if the person was notable. I won't the reference because it is too much work. I will trust your judgement and PR4ever in the "sweep" because to far we are the only ones interested in the integrity of the list. Tony the Marine (talk) 17:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would ask you to reconsider the deletion of Chief Justice A. Cecil Snyder. If you check his article, you will see the following source: La Justicia en sus Manos, by Luis Rafael Rivera, 2007, ISBN 1-57581-884-1. The book details the nature of his controversiality---he was forced off the court due to well-founded suspicion of actual corruption, the only Chief Justice to leave office under a cloud of controversy. That made him notable. Furthermore, he's the first Chief Justice appointed under the PR Constitution. We must remember that the listed person need not developed notability at the present time but when he was alive and active. Pr4ever (talk) 02:25, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First, I can delete a page when it's tagged with the {{hangon}} tag - as the tag itself says, "Note that this request is not binding, and the page may still be deleted if the page unquestionably meets the speedy deletion criteria". Second, don't tell me what to do or not to do - I do not appreciate the tone of your message, so suggest you read this policy on civility. Third, I did check the talk pages which was, by the way, empty at the time the article was deleted. Fourth, I don't have to message the user concerned and give them time to address the issue - that's the whole point of speedy deletion.

I suggest you take the time to read the relevant policies - perhaps starting at WP:CSD - before lecturing other people. Thanks. _GB^T/C 21:42, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Again, I don't particularly appreciate your tone. In particular, the logs show that the page was created at 20:56, tagged for speedy deletion at 20:57, tagged by you with the {{hangon}} at 21:25, and then deleted by me at 21:30. The speedy deletion tag had been in place for over half an hour (quite a long time, as these things go) before the article was deleted. That the editor that tagged it with speedy didn't inform you of the tagging immediately is, perhaps, unfortunate, but in any event a bot notified you four minutes later at 21:01 - 24 minutes before you placed the {{hangon}} tag.

Your suggestion is noted, and filed accordingly. Perhaps you, in turn, can note that I'm still not convinced that this is a plausible redirect- it smacks of marketing more than anything else. _GB^T/C 21:59, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

{{helpme}} What template, parser function, or special page can I use to know how many pages are using a template? I know about the Special:Whatlinkshere page but I'd like the result to be a number that I could use. Something like: 148 pages are using this template, where "148" is generated by some template, etc. Help! ~RayLast ^«Talk!» 21:34, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately I'm not aware of something that'll get what I think you're looking for. But I'll ask around a bit and let you know if I find anything. – Luna Santin (talk) 23:11, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, one of the developers in #wikimedia-tech (WP:IRC) has informed me that no such parserfunction is available at this time (would be an expensive server query, he says). Depending on what exactly you're looking for, there may be a workaround. For now I'll nerf the helpme tag, but feel free to restore it if you have any more questions. :) – Luna Santin (talk) 23:17, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It would be exactly as server expensive as the Special:Whatlinkshere page, which returns results pretty fast. The only small little addition to the query is counting the amount of hits the page returns. Maybe I only need someone to tell me if there is a parser function that counts lines on a page. Then I'd be able to make it myself. Thanks. ~RayLast ^«Talk!» 23:36, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ray, I would like some imput from you in regard to A. Cecil Snyder. I removed his name from the judges section because he is not Puerto Rican and was appointed to his position by the President. I believe that it would be similar to all the military governors in Puerto Rico appointed by the President. The question is this, did Snyder make Puerto Rico his homeland? I don't think so. Your fair opinion in my talk page would be greatly appreciated. Tony the Marine (talk) 03:12, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just so you know, the Netherlands Antilles legislature made Dutch, Papiamentu, and English official languages in the spring of 2007.

Ray, the Rollback feature is a "perk" that comes along with becoming an administrator. You can't ask for it. You are doing real well here and eventually you will become an admin. The main thing to becoming an admin. is to understand policy (I know that you do), have a large enough edit count on the mainspace and always maintain your "cool" when dealing with A-holes. Tony the Marine (talk) 22:38, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You never waited for the green light you asked for. — Rlevse • Talk • 01:09, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The difference here is you asked for a green light at 23:15 and started at 00:43 and yet claim you "got tired of waiting". Being bold is one thing but asking for a green light and waiting less than 30 minutes is bad taste and very impatient. — Rlevse • Talk • 01:15, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The project is hardly abandoned. Asking for a green light and only waiting for 1.5 hours is hardly the way to engender yourself to others. It's really not adquate time. You'd be better off editing, then leaving a note on the talk page about what the purpose of the edits was. — Rlevse • Talk • 01:32, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the "List of PR" and saw a Gloria Gonzalez that was added without a ref., then I checked the article and I saw that it didn't have any references either. That led me to remove the person's name from the list. Now get this, I did a google search on the subject, I mean I figured that such a "notable" person who has received so many "honors" would have multiple mentions, but nada.

During my years in Wikipedia, I have come across two cases where the claims to notability were proven to be false. These two people even went as far as to creating articles in websites such as IMdB, but were proven to be a hoax.

I'm not saying that this is the case with "Gloria Gonzalez", but I am tempted to put the article up for deletion for lack of verifiability. You are a trusted friend and I would like to hear your opinion on the matter. Tony the Marine (talk) 15:28, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for responding. What I'm going to do is post a message on the creators "talk page" requesting reliable verifiable sources (such as a newspaper article or something). I'm going to give that person a couple of days to respond, if not then I will post it for deletion.

Man, I am not a deletionist and sometimes I hate the agendas that some deletionists follow (especially the anti-Hispanic ones), but one of the things that seems strange about the article is that the only reference to her is this one: Biography, Photos, Lyrics (SalsaClasica.com), which is posted in the bio and which according to policy is not considered a reliable source since anyone could have written it. I went once more to google and searched under "Canciones por Gloria Gonzalez" and guess what? It led me to that same website. It could be an elaborate hoax, I mean we don't even know if the person in the picture is her. So, I think that by giving the creator some time to prove him/her-self is good enough. Tony the Marine (talk) 19:31, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, it seems that she may be notable. What I'm going to do is "not" nominate it for deletion at all. However, I will leave the message on the creators page to see if he is motivated to post the sources. Tony the Marine (talk) 20:20, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2. 1/2 + 1/2 = 1. 1/4 Italian + 1/4 Puerto Rican + 1/2 Colombian = 1 Italian/Puerto Rican/Colombian person. Sorry you didn't learn that in school but I blame our poor educational system, not you. MrBlondNYC (talk) 02:42, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If fractions and percentages have nothing to do with math then I must be stupid then. Oh well. Anyway, I'm only trying to write the man's ancestry as Leguizamo himself did in his autobiography succinctly and without plagiarizing. He states specifically that his paternal grandfather was a rich half Italian/half Puerto Rican who breezed through Colombia, got a Colombian woman pregnant and left. Also, he states specifically that his maternal grandfather was from Lebanon. I think it's pretty much understood that most Colombians and Puerto Ricans are a mix of African, Native American, and Spanish. MrBlondNYC (talk) 04:51, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for participating in the Gloria Gonzalez issue. It is great when level headed people like us can discuss an issue in a civil manner before making a final decision. Only if others followed our example. Tony the Marine (talk)

Buenos Dias, I just got up. I have blocked the un-registered user. I don't care if the user is registered or not, if they break the rules they must face the consequences.

Here is my advice:

1. "Do not" revert anyone more then twice.

2. The first time that you revert, leave a message in the user's talk page and tell them the reason and explain policy.

3. The second time that the person reverts, leave them another message, this time "warning" them that insistence of adding "unsoured material" maybe deemed as vandalism and that they maybe subject to being blocked from further editing. Then tell an admin. (could be me) to keep an eye open on the situation.

4. If the user reverts for a third, then they will have violated the "3-revert rule" which is an automatic "block". Let the admin know and the user will be blocked.

5. Remember "do not" make the 3rd revert yourself, because someone may come along and block you too.

6. I do not have any tolerance to those who add profanity. If this were the case, let me know and I will block.

Remember, keep away form the 3rd revert yourself. I hope that this has been of some help. Tony the Marine (talk) 15:06, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just to comment on this common misconception. An editor cannot revert more than 3 times, which means they can't revert 4 times. Check the policy. Although... I think it is really unwise to revert more than once or twice anyways. Just an FYI as these incorrect 3RR reports always pop up over at AIV. Gwynand | Talk•Contribs 18:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here is something that is interesting. My son told me that Prof. Eddie Rio Mellado invented the 3-point shot that is common in the game of basketball. However, I couldn't find any reliable source to confirm this. Now, if this is true, that would mean that a "Boricua" invented something that revolutionized the game of basketball and Mellado deserves an article in Wikipedia. I do know that la Asociación de Jugadores de Baloncesto de Puerto Rico has a "Eddie Rios Mellado Award" which is annually presented to the player who makes the most 3-point shots. This I found out when I checked the R. de la C. 2461 de La Camara de Representantes de Puerto Rico: . R. de la C. 2462

Now, what I was wondering is if anyone in Puerto Rico could come up with some sources (newspapers, books, etc.) which would serve as a verifiable source, because like I said before, I think that Mellado deserves an article. Tony the Marine (talk) 04:48, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• You have made a very good point, a 3-pionter for you (smile). It makes complete sense that the reason that there aren't any verifiable sources is because there is no proof to the "Mellado" legend claim. Tony the Marine (talk) 21:44, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, you have shown a lot of ability working with images, so I have been wondering if you have experience working with pictures of people, I'm asking because we have several articles of living people that are lacking free images and are in need of them, artist depictions are commonly used if no replaceable photos can be found, I recon that as long as the images are only illustrating the subject's appearance they can be used freely without being considered derivative work since its not possible to copyright the appearance of a person. Anyway, what do you say? - Caribbean~H.Q. 20:30, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly, we should start by illustrating the portal's selected biographies, so how about begining with José Juan Barea? I was thinking that the image could sort of "fade-away" from the neck down to avoid any distintive aspect that can justify copyright attribution, we should only illustrate the person's appearance which is supposed to be non-copyrightable. - Caribbean~H.Q. 21:13, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I forgot a example, the most detailed mugshot appears to be used by his profile in Yahoo!, oher simmilar images are found on the image search, the image should illustrate general points without going into too much detail. - Caribbean~H.Q. 21:18, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for catching my error. I had reverted a particularly nasty bit of vandalism to Puerto Rico then went on searching for more vandals. I found a persistent one vandalizing Children's Day‎ that I kept having to revert and I eventually got 'em blocked. In the middle of all of that, I returned to the Puerto Rico page and mistakenly thought someone had added some nonsense characters. I reverted the last edit, thinking I was removing the garbage. It turns out they had instead caught and reverted some prior vandalism and my reversion accidentally restored it. I almost always go back and check my reversions, but this time I was distracted by that persistent vandal. I apologize for my carelessness.  ‑ MANdARAX XAЯAbИAM  (talk)  23:48, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

My friend I just want to share a thought with you,

You know, it amazes me that throughout history, the courage and commitment of the Puerto Rican soldier has been questioned. Can you believe that Major General Luis R. Esteves, the "Father of the Puerto Rican National Guard," questioned the fighting capability of our "Jibaros" and when the 65th Infantry was sent to Korea, the American high command also questioned the bravery of our men. Little did they know that the brave men form our island would eventually earn 5 Medals of Honor, 5 Navy Crosses and 15 Distinguished Service Crosses. But, what strikes me the most is the lack of knowledge of our military history that those who criticize us have had and continue to have.

It seems to me that after the United States took control of our island, the heroic actions of our "Boricuas" as members of the Spanish Army and/or the Puerto Rican militia, were eliminated from our history books. Not only are our heroes of the "past" not mentioned in our educational history books, but there aren't any statues, monuments or paintings to honor them. That is why I enjoy writing about these heroes and telling the world about them. I want the world to know that our people were brave soldiers with "cojones" before the United States took over the island and they began to serve the Armed Forces of the United States.

That is why I have written the stories of men such as Juan de Amezquita and the brothers Jose and Francisco Diaz. I hope that you enjoy them. Tony the Marine (talk) 05:13, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Flags and records Greetings, during the past months, there has been a lot of activity and active discussion surrounding articles within our scope. Of particular interest is one that took place in Flag of Puerto Rico, in which several project members exposed their points of view regarding the tones of our flag. Ultimately, research brought forth a severe loophole in the regulation employed by the Senate of Puerto Rico. Our flag doesn't have official tones! Attempting to prevent future conflicts, I presented a proposal in the project's talk page. The subsequent discussion served as an perfect example of consensus. Thanks to everyone for your participation. In other news, our friend Tony the Marine added another impressive achievement to his brilliant resume. On December 8, 2008, his DYK hook for Ivan Castro (soldier) broke the previous all-time record for more views, receiving 71,300 visits.

Project News On January 3, 2009, Cerejota presented a draft interested in establishing a solid style guide for the project. The current revision can be seen here, further suggestions can be placed in the project's talk page. Puerto Rican Campaign, Jewish immigration to Puerto Rico, Currencies of Puerto Rico and Sixto Escobar are now of good article quality. Facts from Isabel Gonzalez, Jewish immigration to Puerto Rico, Chinese immigration to Puerto Rico, Ivan Castro (soldier), Currencies of Puerto Rico, Orlando Antigua and Jaime Fonalledas were featured in the "Did you know..." section of the main page. List of Puerto Rican boxing world champions is currently a featured list candidate Luis Muñoz Rivera and Flag of Puerto Rico, articles within our scope, are currently good article nominees.
Puerto Rican Highlight On November 1, Jonathan González won the flyweight division's gold medal at the International Boxing Association's Youth World Championships. (Primera Hora) González joins John John Molina, Aníbal Santiago Acevedo, Carlos Febres and Daniel Alicea as gold medalists in this competition. Did you Know? That the Elfin-woods Warbler, an endemic bird of Puerto Rico first observed in 1968, is the last New World warbler species to be discovered?

The issue of weather it is proper to use or not, the flag of Puerto Rico in the article of the "Puerto Rico Campaign" infobox has come up. This one of those cases that I believe that it is important that others express their opinion in the Talk:Puerto Rican Campaign. Please participate.

In that box, the image for the Meta-wiki should be this: , don´t you think so?? (I mean, It´s in the meta-wiki main page and in the previous userbox about it, the current logo is already in use for the slot of the foundation). Well that´s my opinion, shall it be changed?

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is One-dollar salary. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/One-dollar salary. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:12, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I rewrote the Zemi article and used your drawing of a three-point Zemi. I credited it to "Mistman123" – feel free to change that if you want. If you find the time, could you look over the article to see if anything needs to be changed? Any suggestions are welcome! Cheers, -Uyvsdi (talk) 21:56, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Uyvsdi[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
