WikiProject Puerto Rico September 2007 Newsletter
 Year I - Issue 4 - September 2007 | |

Hello, Marine 69-71. This is the fourth issue of WikiProject Puerto Rico's newsletter. The newsletter is intended to help all members to keep up with the latest news relating to the project. Please help with the newsletter by suggesting content to be included on the newsletter by leaving a message on my talk page. Enjoy! --Agüeybaná 16:52, 30 September 2007 (UTC) | |
I would like to pay a small tribute in this edition to Tony "the Marine". Editing since May 24, 2004, he has been one of our project's most active editors and has become one of Wikipedia's most recognized writers. He has authored over 400 articles, including 4 Featured Articles, 1 Featured List, 10 Good Articles, and 28 DYKs. His name has appeared in newspapers and magazines and has been mentioned by politicians and artists. He has brought Puerto Rico's history and its people to the web. He has shown the world that Puerto Ricans have done much more than just be gangsters and drug dealers. He has shown the world that we have contributed to history and the world just as much as any other group of people. On September 29, 2007, Tony announced that we would not be writing for Wikipedia anymore. We, the members of this project, are sad that he will not be able to continue to spread the word of Hispanics' contributions here on the web, but I, for one, feel honored that he has entrusted us with the duty of continuing and improving his excellent work. Tony, rest assured that your contributions, your wisdom, and the help you provided to all of us when we were new users will be remembered for generations. Que Dios te bendiga, Tony, y que tu recompensa sea grande en el Reino de los Cielos. Viva Puerto Rico libre. —Agüeybaná 16:52, 30 September 2007 (UTC) |

Que honor Tony. And more to be nominated by you and Agueybana! I was humbled by the list of supporters, it certainly sets expectations high! Hopefully, I can count on all of you for counsel and support when the going gets rough. Gracias!! - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 10:29, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Image:Jonny_Moseley.JPG listed for deletion
An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Jonny_Moseley.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Calliopejen1 17:22, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Fortunately, there are a lot of images for him on Flickr. See http://flickr.com/search/?q=Jonny%20Moseley&w=all Pick one you like that looks like it really was taken by the Flickr user, not just scanned from a magazine, and send that Flickr user an email asking them to change the license on it to Creative Commons Attribution or Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike. Their incentive is that if they do it, you will put it up on the article, and the attribution for the image will link to their Flickr account or website, or wherever they want, and Wikipedia is the #9 most popular web site in the world. My success rate for questions like that is a bit over half, so with over 100 images to choose from, it's almost certain you'll get someone to agree. I could do this for you, but something about teaching someone how to fish rather than giving them a fish... :-) --AnonEMouse (squeak) 17:32, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
- Looking good - the owner of http://flickr.com/photos/telstar/47854252/ says he is a registered Wikipedian himself and will be glad to add the picture to the article himself later today. Maybe even two pictures if we're lucky. That's the first time that happened to me, that I met someone who says "sure, but why don't I do it myself". :-) --AnonEMouse (squeak) 16:29, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Tony:
Thanks for your careful maintenance of the sections on Puerto Rico. I am contacting you re: Virgil Miller, my Great Uncle. He was born and raised in Puerto Rico. After he graduated from High School in San Juan, he attended West Point, from which he graduated. He led a very fascinating life, most especially his contributions during WWII leading the 442. In addition, he was very proud to be one of the first people from Puerto Rico to graduate from West Point.
If you want further evidence of any of this- note in the "Military History of Puerto Rico" section of Wikipedia, the book that is cited, Historias de Puerto Rico- the author is Paul G. Miller. Paul G. Miller is the father of Virgil Miller. There is also a school named after him in Puerto Rico, which you can also confirm via a Google search. This is the most open source evidence I can show you, but I did not add his name lightly to this most distinguished list of Puerto Ricans.
By taking his name out, and not including him, I believe you are omitting a very interesting man from the roster.
I hope that you agree and will put his name back in the appropriate sections in Wikipedia.
Thank you,
Andrew Macaulay —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.236.189.92 (talk) 16:05, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
- Hello Andrew, I very much want to add the name Col. Virigil Miller. I would'nt mind even writing an article about him. The only problem is that Wikipedia requires verifiable sources to be cited which can proof that he was born in P.R. If you want you can get ahold of me via e-mail, because I would like to learn more about him. Tony the Marine 16:13, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Tony, I've commented on the GAR of Hispanic Admirals in the United States Navy. I think some users there have a point that the article, is not an article, but a list. I explained why there. I also think some references could be improved, like they said. After that, you should move on to WP:FLC, which I think it could pass if the sources are fixed.
As for original research, I totally disagree with them. I wrote my opinion, and think it's well founded. This article should not be deleted in any way.
I apologize for not supporting your work as much as you deserve it. Works like these don't get written very often, and certainly not of that quality. I just expressed my true opinion on the WP:GA technicality of not including lists. Take care. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 05:31, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
Article on the 65th Infantry Documentary in The New York Times
Dear Tony,
You may be interested in this article:
http://query.nytimes.com/search/query?query=Puerto+Rico&srchst=nyt
On a separate note, do you have any information about the military contributions of Puerto Ricans to Ireland's Irish Free State and eventual independence. Also, are you interested in Puerto Rican's participation in Spain's Civil War (1936-39) on both of the main sides of the conflict.
All the best,
Hypathia 16:52, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Tony:
If you could email me- I will provide you with a document that I retrieved from West Point, that documents that Virgil was born in PR, he received his apmt to West Point for PR, and that he returned home in 1926 to spend most of that year in PR.
I will also need a fax # so I can fax this document to you.
Thank you,
Andrew Macaulay

Please just stay silent on the Good Article thing. It is just one of those wacky Wikipedia idiotic happenings -- please don't take it to heart. Please don't change anything about yourself here at Wikipedia. This is a heartfelt request from me to you. --Mattisse 02:07, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

I had to remove the master editor award from his award page. SandyGeorgia does not meet the criteria for a Master Editor Barnstar. You must have 40,000 edits and 5 years of service to receive or give yourself this award. SandyGeorgia has only been a member since February 2006. He is eligeble for the Experienced & Established Editor award or you could give him another award that he isn't already able to give himself.--Dr who1975 15:15, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Nicky Cruz.JPG
You have claimed that Nicky Cruz.JPG is in the public domain as it was published before 1923, but this seems unlikely to be as he was not born until 1938. I have removed the {{PD-US}} template, so the image now has not licensing information and is subject to deletion. Cheers --Pak21 13:23, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
- Again, there are a lot of photos of him on Flickr. [3] Do you want to try to request one this time? It's not hard, really, and works a bit more than half the time. Here's a request I wrote just this morning.
- Subject: Clare Short photo for Wikipedia?
- Hi, I'm a volunteer editor for Wikipedia, a free online encyclopedia project. We have an article about Clare Short that lacks a free picture: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_Short
- I noticed your nice photo of her on Flickr: http://flickr.com/photos/georgimabee/273967845/
- If you could change the license on that photo to Creative Commons Attribution or Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike, we could use that image for our article. You would be credited as the photographer. The Wikipedia is currently the #9 web site in the world, so that means a lot of people would benefit and be able to see the photo.
- If you agree, please change the license to CC-BY or CC-BY-SA, and respond to this email with how you want to be credited - Flickr account name, full name, website link?
- Thank you,

Can I impose upon you for a favor?
Hiya Tony! Can I bug you for a favor? About two weeks ago a pair of fair use images were tagged as being considered for deletion. I didn't make a move to save them becuase the sourcing requirements for these two images were to hard to come up with, and I was not entirely sure that they had been published off Wikipedia, so I decided the best thing to do would be to allow both to be deleted. The first one was, but for some reason the second one (Image:Tom II (Toonami).JPG) is still here, and its been almost two weeks since it was up for deleteion. I don't think anyone will object to deleting it at this point (its been tagged since september), so could you delete it for me? I would apreciate it. TomStar81 (Talk) 08:28, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
.JPG&action=edit&redlink=1){kind=link}
- Gotcha, thanks for the help. My guess is that someone missed the imaged when the other one got deleted, I am just getting concerned because deletions don;t usually take this long. TomStar81 (Talk) 21:29, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
Award
How on earth did you manage to do all that contributing to the MILHIST project and yet not recieve this award?!? I am glad I caught that when I did, it would be real embaressing for one of our top rated contributers to a subject area of great importance to have retired from active writing without earning this. Semper Fi, Tony! Carry On! TomStar81 (Talk) 09:44, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
Hello Tony
Someone has proposed deletion for the Chicago Cubs all-time roster (please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chicago Cubs all-time roster), and the arguments they are using apply equally to all the all-time rosters. Just thought you might want to get your own opinion on this. Cheers. MusiCitizen 20:48, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

GA sweep: Pedro del Valle GA status on hold
I have reassessed Pedro del Valle as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force. We are currently revisiting all listed Good articles in an effort to ensure that they continue to meet the Good article criteria.
In reviewing the article, I came across some issues that may need to be addressed; I have left a detailed summary on the article's talk page. As a result I have put Pedro del Valle's GA status on hold. This will remain in place for a week or so before a final decision is taken as to the article's status.
I have left this message because, from the article history, you have been a significant contributor. If you no longer edit this article please accept my apologies and feel free to ignore this message ;)
All the best, EyeSereneTALK 12:34, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
- Tony, Quick work on the citations. I've done a little tighten up of citations and references. — ERcheck (talk) 02:08, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Invitation to comment on the baseball All-time roster standardization
Since you commented on the AfD debate for the Chicago Cubs All-time Roster, I thought you might have an interest in participating in a discussion on standardizing the baseball all-time roster articles. If you'd like to join in, the discussion is here. If not, please ignore this message. Thanks! --Fabrictramp 22:04, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
2/9 citations
Tony, I tightened up all the citation on 2/9 in your workshop. Most of the Who's Who references were pointing to the old, non-functional website versus it at tecom. Also, the USMC MoH citations now need to be accessed via archived versions. All links now seem to be working. — ERcheck (talk) 13:53, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Done --Agüeybaná 02:05, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
- Proof:
- 1.) The CIA identifies the flag of Puerto Rico as a light blue, not a marine blue.
- 2.) See this edit by Polifonia; see this edit by Kaiser262.
- 3.) Compare Special:Contributions/Kaiser262 with Special:Contributions/Polifonia.
- If that's not enough to prove they're related, then I don't know what is. --Agüeybaná 02:19, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
- Further: the dark blue is used by the PNP; the light blue is used by the PIP; the sky blue is used by the PPD, the rest of the world, and me. --Agüeybaná 02:24, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Marine,
I understand that my action on the Abdiel Colberg disambiguation page was confusing, however my intention was to suggest that the disambiguation page be deleted and the Abdiel Colberg (rollerblader) article be moved into its place. There are no other entries on the disambiguation page that have existing corresponding articles. Please let me know what you think.
Neelix 12:20, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Tony,
- I appreciate the 'writing pointers' you posted on my talk page. With respect to surnames, I'm not really a genealogy expert. I've just been wrestling with the problem of disambiguating biographical articles based on common given names and surnames along with many other users who are attempting to create more consistency in this area. "List of People by Name" didn't work out, so hopefully the separate surname and given name pages will. As for the surname Cole, this is what my limited research has come up with:
- It is especially common among the Dutch.
- It has at least two separate lineages - one derived from Nicholas (which means people's victory), and one derived from Old English (meaning black).
- As a common surname with multiple origins, it's quite possible that one lineage of Cole's began in Ireland. I hope this helps!
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Felicita and Gonzalo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Felicita and Gonzalo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 22:25, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- I have dealt with it. It specifically needs the article name in the rationale under the fair-use guidelines. Woodym555 23:02, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Pleasure as always. Regards. Woodym555 23:34, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Flag Icons in Bio's
Exactly:
Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(flags)#Not_for_use_in_locations_of_birth_and_death
Not for use in locations of birth and death
The use of flag icons in the birth and death information in a biographical article's introduction and/or infobox is strongly deprecated, as flags imply citizenship and/or nationality. Many people born abroad due to traveling parents never become citizens of the countries in which they were born and do not claim such a nationality. For example, actor Bruce Willis was born on a U.S. military base in Germany, so putting a German flag in his infobox, for any reason, might lead the casual reader to assume he is or was a German citizen. Similarly, many people die on foreign soil due to war, vacation accidents, etc. without any effect on their actual citizenship or nationality.
Carry on, I'll be in the area through out the day. WikiDon 19:45, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
- This would be a great example why not to do it right here:
- Saw example and removed it. Issue could still be debatable, but not worth it. 21:36, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
Reply
Hi - did take a quick look when you sent the e-mail; but, haven't made any edits. I'm trying to get organized for the November 1 update to the USMC portal. I've updated the picture, think I have the bio decided on, but am unsure of the article — I have an idea, but the article needs some major fixing first ... which I've been researching additional sources. In between, I've been making minor tweaks to USMC bios (looking for good candidates amongst them)...
I'll look more in depth at the article as soon as I finish with the portal.
Your e-mail note on how it came about was quite fascinating.

Ron Rivera
Through your reversion, the Ron Rivera article now begins oddly again, by saying that Rivera "is" the first Puerto Rican and Mexican to play in the NFL. Since he's no longer playing in the NFL, however, "was" would be the natural choice in English. The feat described is something that has already occurred. It is no longer occurring. That's why I made the change, and I disagree with your statement that "was" suggested Rivera was dead. It most certainly does not. After all, we'd never say that Bill Clinton "is" the 42nd President. He "was" the 42nd President. And the use of "was" doesn't imply that Clinton has died. Regardless, best wishes, and I'll move my copy-editing on elsewhere.GreenGourd 02:31, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Tony, you had unblocked YoSoyGuapo (talk · contribs) a couple months ago with an apparent agreement that he refrain from edit warring. Well, he is at it again and there is a thread started at WP:ANI#User:YoSoyGuapo. What I personally find particularly alarming is that now he is following Couillaud (talk · contribs) to other completely unrelated articles to start edit wars there as well. Not a good trend per WP:STALK. —Wknight94 (talk) 16:22, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Please take a look at this
I've been the subject of personal attacks Personal Attacks
Baseball Bugs and Couillaud have both tried to bate me with personal attacks calling me "Googleman" [4] stating that I learned English last week [5] Stating that I am trolling [6] stating that they are going to do something [7] for which I said they should [8] and then giving a sarcastic response [9] and commenting on my spelling [10]. From going thru my history Coulliard could tell that I am hispanic (especially due to my usage of terms like Hermano and my Username of YoSoyGuapo) he has made comments mocking my heritage stating wikipedia may not have the "cojones" [11] to fix this.
[12] and have tried various means including RFC's, compromises and more. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_noticeboard%2FIncidents&diff=168787462&oldid=168787200 I've made notifications for an individual who is reverting talk pages [13] by reporting it to 3RR and WP:AIV [14] . I've complained about this situation and utilized wikipedia policies to fix this (RFC, inviting others to comment, making new templates [15], placing fact tags on POV). What else should i do? Should i simply walk away from this article? I haven't been on for a while and didn't touch the article b/c I wanted it to cool down. Nothing happened and Couillaud and Baseball Bugsgot personal with personal attacks. Should I just not touch this article anymore or ask for community mediation? YoSoyGuapo 19:27, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
