Hi Dark Dragon Flame - I've seen you've been reverting edits to the list of current world boxing champs.
Although the Ring magazine has not published their updated rankings, their rules state that Mayweather will take over their title - therefore it is safe to assume that they will update their rankings at a future date. If you still want to revert, just leave a message of my talk page - thanks! east.718 05:11, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Dark Dragon Flame. The Adopt-a-User program is looking for new ideas and input on the program. If you are still interested please stop by the talk page and read some of the ideas being floated and give a comment. If you want to update or change your information on the adopter's list page, now would be a great time! Thanks! V60 干什么? · VDemolitions 03:38, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
Will do. Been busy in real life for the last bit, so I haven't been around as much. --Boradis 06:49, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
To tell you the truth, I have no idea where I could get links from. As a alternative, you could make a note on WP:PW talk page, or put it as a nomination on the collaboration of the week list. Sorry about that. Neldav 18:52, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
Hey. A little bit of advice: you might want to just take what you can get with the Dante article and don't worry about FA. You can still get a featured topic with some Good Articles. — Deckiller 18:39, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
I was getting ready mis armamentos about now to straighten out this article but you beat me to it, and so far, nicely done!! cheers – Moebiusuibeom-en 04:15, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
[1] Looks like a software glitch or a complicated edit conflict. Probably nothing you could have done about it... but if it ever comes back to haunt you, don't worry about it and point people to me for a tap with the cluestick! ⋐⋑ REDVEЯS 20:47, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
I was wondering if you good see this Yamcha Vs. Yamucha discussion and say what you think the article should remain titled. Thank you. ~I'm anonymous
Okay, I think I'm satified with the Martyr A.D. page. But I want your opinion. So what do you think? Show me how to make it better. Your Adoptee, Indie -0 14:07, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
Hey man. I oversaw your comments on Moeb's page and I feel I should clarify something. He/she were discussing references in articles, and I advised him that some printed references should be obtained for articles before reaching FAC, and that they shouldn't rely exclusively on websites, to avoid dead references. I advised him when we were collaborating on Rail transport of Puerto Rico, and he asked me about San Juan, Puerto Rico. I responded about San Juan and its references, but he/she deleted it for some reason. Moeb even deleted the conversation from my user talkpage, and that I did not appreciate, but he/she deleted that as well. However, I believe he/she has the best intentions to improve articles, but we are just having a misunderstanding that should be resolved in a central discussion. The problem is taking it to different pages and users, and deleting good faith conversations.
Now about his/her arguments, I believe Moeb has a point on external links. That section in the San Juan article is bloated. Some links do not belong there because they are about different subjects. See NYC for an example.
I think the best thing we can do is to form a discussion between us three, get this resolved, and move on to improve the article and the rest of the project. No deleting, no name-calling, no BS,... just pure consensus. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 21:52, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Well I'm currently pretty busy with work. The small edits I put to the article were made on Moeb's request, but I'll try to work on it this week. Here's a tip: A lot of information already available in other articles is missing on this one (San Juan Port, Battle of San Juan) besides a few pipe links. We could start with that. I know the hardest part will be the History section, because this city has so much of it yet so little is freely available on the internet. But I'll give it a try. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 01:21, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
It happens, the important thing is to settle things up front and without fear. Disagreements happen, but they should be resolved directly between users. Also, once comments are made in talk pages, it should stay there. You can even change your opinion or clarify it or even withdraw it, but don't delete it, or delete other's comments. It's uncivil.
We all need to work on the San Juan article, and it'll be much harder if we don't collaborate. What do you think, Dragon? - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 23:40, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Do you mind taking a look at Devil May Cry (novels) and leaving your thoughts? The article is pretty much as complete as I can make it right now, since I've not been able to find reviews or information about the damned things outside of the books themselves. Cheers, Lanky ○ Yell ○ 13:44, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
No worries, then. I'm going to be submitting it for GA-class soon, and if you've got any articles you'd like to concentrate on just drop me a line and I'll help out however I can. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lanky (talk • contribs) 22:55, 15 May 2007 (UTC).
I agree. Let's put it on the list and keep working on it until it's reviewed. If anyone objects, we'll work on their suggestions then so it passes GA. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 00:43, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the welcome and the links, DDF, TrevorX 03:02, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Hey friends, I believe that even though San Juan metro area hosts consular staff from 37 countries, the “Diplomacy” section truly belongs in the Puerto Rico article. This is not a local matter but more of an international scope (State level).
I have researched various international cities and the “Consulates and Embassies” belong to whole countries or “states”, not on a city scale, this section should be “trimmed” and moved to the Puerto Rico article and just have a link to it from the San Juan article.
Let me know your thoughts - Moebiusuibeom-en 15:42, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the information concerning signing of Articles, I really did not know it. Hope to continue writing articles and improving the image of our island of Puerto Rico with you. Thanks for the advice. --Wvivoni 22:09, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Sure, let me know what you will need. I more than happy to help improve the image of those articles.--Wvivoni 00:11, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
Cuando revertiste el vandalismo de dicho artículo revertiste un montón de cosas que no eran vandalismo. Trata de tener un poco más de cuidado cuando estés revirtiendo cambios. --Pasajero 11:15, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Dude, what are you doing? Don't give in to people who come to disrupt Wikipedia. Just comment politely and remove their personal attacks when necessary, but don't attack yourself! A more stringent user might report the both of you to WP:AP and you may be blocked. I've deleted both of your comments to avoid that, but please stay cool. The project does not want to lose you over this. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 12:55, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
As for info on Teófilo Cruz, I can't find info either by surfing the web. But it also applies to many other articles. I think that a lot of information on Puerto Rican history and people is out there, but its just not free (public domain), and therefore we can't find it. If I had access to the online archives of El Nuevo Día and San Juan Star I think I could find some, but regrettably I'm not a subscriber. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 21:58, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
You should just leave the new ratings. While he may be having the dispute, the ratings on the articles are pretty outrageous. TTN 23:46, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Your labeling of a "preventive revert", such as here, is comprehensible. He is currently having an issue with the Dragon Ball WikiProject presenting English names (FUNimation's) to substitute the Japanese English-translated names. I will be watching this user carefully and I will only revert the edit he did to Toriyama's, which I disagree with mostly. Lord Sesshomaru
Just so you know, part of the reason I haven't been very active lately is my real world life has been kind of crazy and busy this past month or so. I'm not sure when it will settle down, but I do plan on becoming more involved here when it does. I didn't want you to think I'd bailed out on the DMC pages. --Boradis 02:43, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
I know what you mean. I tackled Cerro Maravilla Incident a year ago, adding a lot of sources and maintaining it NPOV. The result was it got promoted to GA. So try following that rule... Add sources, maintain NPOV. Very simple. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 02:58, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
Wow! Great work. I'll try to help you out this week to see if we could turn it into a good article. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 11:43, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi, i'm create a page with better information and new images, not for the episode, for the fast-food franchise. Sight, to see if is vandalism. --Ben-spam (Speak in my talk)
I've suggested to Moeb that we should merge certain small articles about San Juan's districts which could never reach FA or even GA on their own with San Juan, thereby increasing San Juan's comprehensiveness and increasing its chances to reach GA and FA. What do you think? - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 23:48, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
San Juan, Puerto Rico is now a Good Article! I saw you did a lot of edits based on the GA review suggestions, and the article passed thanks to you. Congratulations! - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 10:35, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
As you know too often the contributions which Hispanics have made have often been overlooked. This must stop! I believe that you should look at this and express yourself. [8] Tony the Marine 06:42, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
A couple of things:
Vegeta is now on my watch list. At least in this case, it's easy to see there's community consensus and one (currently blocked) dissenter. And thank you for staying on topic in the exchange and not doing anything uncivil. —C.Fred (talk) 02:09, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Hey! The Puerto Rico Portal page has been revamped with additional content, including a Selected series of Articles, Pictures, and Biographies related to Puerto Rico. However, maintaining a Portal is no easy task. As a member of the WikiProject Puerto Rico, please consider helping out in one of the following tasks:
Your help and contributions are greatly appreciated. Enjoy the Portal! - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 03:53, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, sure. I'll take care of chopping down the plot portion, no problem. I'll handle that right now. Cheers, Lanky TALK 00:12, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Nice. That's what I did with Rail transport in Puerto Rico. :p I figure peer reviews should be used once it passes GA, since it is more of a step to reach FA. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 01:48, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Hey Dark Dragon Flame; took the liberty and did some nice adjustments in San Juan, Puerto Rico TEST 2, check it out! remember that these are permanent charts, no changes will be done to them until 2010, they dont have to be flexible, JPG format can be used. Also did some nice adjustments on Images to balance the whole thing out, take a look below Climate, if you want i could also prepare a nice colorful horizontal chart for this area ~ Moebiusuibeom-en 18:13, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Yes, lets finish the other Peer Review points! the show/hide chart you've created is very innovative. Got other sections working out. I could prepare a "custom" map of the city, let me know! ~ Moebiusuibeom-en 15:21, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
Hey Dark Dragon Flame, you sure you want to put "List of notable residents of San Juan" in Demographics, it has nothing to do here, Demographics is something totally unrelated. Notable residents used to take a whole chunk of the article and now its on its way to oblivion, San Juan has a good dose of important people known throughout the world, San Juan and Puerto Rico shines (BRILLA) in this area, Puerto Rico for its 4 million inhabitants is incredibly popular everywhere in the world thanks to our "Notable Residents", and like I've said, we should emphasize "things We Stand Out", so I've placed "List of notable residents of San Juan" back in it's "Prominent Section" until we "fill up" article with more substantial info, later on it could be placed under "Culture" or as "See also", and furthermore, the list of notable residents of San Juan is very complete and of high caliber, maybe we should analize & research and see what Peer Reviewer maclean means by that it's unreferenced.
Lets try to consult each other when we do structural changes, lets not go around in circles. By the way, we urgently need a section on Music (amongst others), lets find someone who can collaborate on this subject, anyway, the article really looks good and smooth thanks to you and all of us who have been behind it! Shouldn't we be discussing this in Peer Review? Cheers ~ Moebiusuibeom-en 16:17, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Sounds good. I'm getting something ready on Recreation and Parks. Music should be also in a class by itself, maybe someone from The Conservatorio or La Escueala Libre de Música could help us out!
Please read today's (Sunday 10th, June) Mayra Montero's column "antes que llegue el lunes" in El Nuevo Día: [CRUCEROS] and you'll see what i mean ~ Moebiusuibeom-en 19:26, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for the offer on joining the task force for PR municipalities. However, I am not very active on Wikipedia and therefore I must decline your offer. I will, from time to time, offer my advice and experience on how to improve articles. Joelito (talk) 22:40, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
You should just leave the new ratings. While he may be having the dispute, the ratings on the articles are pretty outrageous. TTN 23:46, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
I reported him earlier but it seems to be going nowhere but a random conversation between three people. He claims that its over. Perhaps your thoughts could benefit something. See this user's case. Lord Sesshomaru

DDF, Well I'm out. I am leaving the task force because it is getting too much too keep up with while I'm out here in Iraq and all the bullcrap gone on with people not coming to an agreement on things or getting along. It's only a few IPs out there that keeps give the task force a hard time. I put retired because I don't think I will be back as a full time or part time task force member but I will stay on Wiki as an advisor on anything you may need help that I may know about but again I will not be a member anymore or at less for now. You and a few others have become good people I came to like, trust and respect. Thanks for all the help, support and the unknown knowledge on Dragon Ball I did not even know. Like I said I am still on Wiki so hit me up anytime and I get back to you as fast as I can. You take it easy man and Dark Flame On Dante. holla.Heat P 01:48, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
Surprise! History of Puerto Rico has been selected for presentation on the Main Page for Monday, June 18, 2007 (tomorrow!). My congratulations to all editors who helped bring this important Puerto Rican topic to FA, especially to Joelito. But don't celebrate yet. There's two important things we should do:
Well, gente, take pride that on June 18, Puerto Rico's history will be presented on the grandest of pages in Wikipedia. Peace! - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 10:15, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
Hi, Dragon ... I may have goofed on a revert of your edit to History. See the talk page entry with Mtmelendez; sorry about that ! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 01:14, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
I've actually quit my job recently (hence my inactivity), but I can certainly find the time to help. Just let me know about nominations in advance. Cheers, Lanky TALK 04:00, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
What I added wasnt nonsense. Trinidad took a beating in both the Hopkins and Wright fights, losing both in shutout fashion. Plainly, he was dominated. He couldnt land a single flush, clean shot on Wright and Hopkins was the same. Just cuz ur a fan doesnt mean u should ignore the facts, or maybe u didnt even watch the fights. There was no information on the fights, just a generic summary. What I added was the true description. -Jetsin07 03:16, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
If you are, I'd greatly appreciate the time and effort. .learned.fool. 06:03, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Of course it should. The legend comes from Puerto Rico. Don't worry too much about tagging, if its related to Puerto Rico, then the Puerto Rico WikiProject should take it under its wing. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 10:11, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
I thought this might interest you: El Hatillo Municipality, Miranda; to use as yet another example for San Juan, Puerto Rico. It's a featured article about a municipality in Venezuela. Although they are different cities, the layout and content might prove suitable for San Juan. Hope its useful. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 02:39, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
On the Goku article, you make the edit where you changed Kakarot and Kakarrot to Kakarotto. Anime and Manga names are what names the use in the english versions of the anime and manga respectively. I changed them back to what they're suppose to be. Ryu Ematsu
Hey Dark Dragon Flame, I've messed up, sorry, was trying to place Arts & Culture image in it's correct positioning, (originally didn't want it to overlap transportation area) and it seems I've lost part of info and don't know how to reverse, please help ~ (Moebiusuibeom-en 15:20, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Dark Dragon, thanks for the complements about team work, hectic, you bet, here i got some stats:
On the San Juan, Puerto Rico Article, it was was created on 21 November 2006, in approximately the first 6 months (153 days) there was 180 edits. Around the 23 July you beat me and started heavy and between you (Dragon), Mtmelendez, others and I (Moeb), until today (74 days) we have done some 330 edits.
Now it seems its in calm waters, it means we are all satisfied with what it has become, (for now i presume, article will still be evolving) we still need to polish some things, one section on Parks and Recreation is owed by me, didn't do that cause I'm in the process of going to the Jardín Botanico for some research and haven't had the time, most info about the garden is rather obsolete and want to make sure it's updated and correct, I'm also into filling in related links like barrios Alto del Cabro / Campo Alegre, Puerto Rico, witch probably blew peoples mind by having the two together, no rules are broken, they are twins plus I've included Plaza del Mercado, I will also be doing a couple other barrios, mostly historic ones, even Barrio Obrero is a candidate but i'm debating, ¿que te parece?, Miramar needs urgent revamping witch I've started already but haven't had time, and Milla de oro is in need of update, I've talked to Mtmelendez about this one, there's a lot of changes coming in this area and truly it needs to be world class. O yea, I've messed again and some info was deleted, i think its my operating system and last, is there some kind of rule against us three meeting somewhere some day for coffee, (Starbucks, or am i nuts) it's hard in other places but the island is small, we may be able to work even better in the future if we do so, regards ~ Moebiusuibeom-en 20:04, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
Sure mi hermano, I may copyedit and rephrase somethings. A citation is needed fro the following: "Fort San Felipe del Morro and Fort San Cristobál. Both of these locations were recognized as part of humanity's cultural patrimony." Tony the Marine 17:56, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
You guys have done a wonderful job with San Juan, Puerto Rico and make me proud. I made some minor corrections, but feel free to revert me if you feel I am wrong. I would like to make two minor suggestions, which you may consider.
1. Include something about Rafael Cordero (educator)
2. and maybe San Juan's role in the World War's since Camp Las Casa's was situated in what is now "El Caserio Las Casa" see: Puerto Ricans in World War II and since the "first" shot in World War I on behave of the "Americans" was made in San Juan by Puerto Rican Teofilo Marxuach.
Those are only suggestions. Now, if were up to me, I would include a "table" with the mayors of the city and at least mention Felisa Rincón de Gautier who was the first woman to be elected as the mayor of a capital city in any of The Americas. Tony the Marine 19:07, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
I would like the honor of presenting you with the Boricua Barnstar. It is because of the dedication of editors like you that we are able to present a positive image of our island. "Que Dios te Bendiga" Tony the Marine 22:26, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey Gurch, I was wondering if you could help me in creating a Ad for a new project, I was lookin for user Qxz and since I was redirected here I assume you are him. The Project is WikiProject:Reggaeton, I am not interested in the music genre but the Project needs projection and since it seems like its going to survive a Micellany for Deletion discussion, it needs to find more members, thanks for you time. -凶 21:35, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, it has been a while. It was the thing with Benoit that drew me back. Life had slowed down a little while back, but it looked like all hell was on the brink of breaking loose within WP:PW, so I figured that I would just stay gone. I am active at the Pro Wrestling Wikia however. You may consider joining. I'll vouch for you if you'd like admin powers there. Peace, The Hybrid 17:55, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I can tend to the FAC but I believe (as Sandy does) that the article is not FA quality yet. I was going to oppose its candidacy just before Sandy's comments. Some people might question why I was going to oppose a Puerto Rico related FAC but I am an objective person when it comes to these things. I hope that the article manages to achieve FA but at the moment that will not be the case. Joelito (talk) 23:26, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

You are receiving this newsletter because you have signed up for WikiProject Puerto Rico. If you wish to stop receiving this newsletter, please contact User talk:Boricuaeddie. This newsletter was delivered by the automated R Delivery Bot 18:06, 30 June 2007 (UTC) .
Hello, Caribbean H.Q.! As you may know already, WikiProject Puerto Rico, in conjunction with the WP:1.0 program, is trying to assess the quality of articles within our scope to help us focus our work on the articles who need it the most. Unfortunately, there is a backlog of more than 799 unassessed articles within our scope. I, in the name of the members of WikiProject Puerto Rico, ask you, if you have the time, to help your fellow members clean up the backlog by assessing unassessed articles and review articles already assessed to make sure they still meet the quality criteria. You can learn more about the WikiProject's article assessment program at Wikipedia:WikiProject Puerto Rico/Assessment.
I, personally, found assessing articles manually took too much time, so I looked around and found a script that makes assessing articles easier. If you would like the script's help, just copy the following code to your monobook.js.
// [[User:Outriggr/metadatatest.js]] importScript('User:Outriggr/metadatatest.js'); assessmentMyTemplateCode = ["((PuertoRicoproj|class=|importance=))"];
You can find the manual for the script at User talk:Outriggr/metadatatest.js. If you need help, please contact me. Thank you for your time. I hope you can find the time to help. This message has been automatically delivered to all WikiProject Puerto Rico participants using AWB. Happy editing! Yours sincerely, Eddie 17:18, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
That wasn't vandalism, it was an opinion. How was criticizing a famous person on a talk page vandalism?
I see your point, but then, why didn't you just say that talk pages are not for opinions instead of threatening to block me?
Hey mi hermano, nice to hear from you. So, how do you like your new surroundings so far? In regard to Luis Miguel, well the problem in his case is that even though he is Puerto Rican by birth, he became a Mexican citizen without having renounced his U.S. citizenship. Mexico is one of the few countries where you can have dual citizenship. So, the other user is not wrong either. Now, Luis Miguel had always tried to hide the fact that he was born in Puerto Rico and never speaks about the fact that he was born there as if he is ashamed of this fact. For people like him I say "Que se vaya pal carajo". Don't worry to much about his article. Tony the Marine 05:51, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
If the image is so important to the article why is there only one sentence regarding it? Fair use should only be used for things which words could not describe. i believe that the written description is quite appropiate.
Furthermore, the FUR could hold for the Puerto Rico national basketball team article but not for the main Puerto Rico article. Joelito (talk) 20:37, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
I replied at the PWW. Cheers, The Hybrid 01:05, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
Excellent idea! I would also add if I were you, that a person can be a Puerto Rican and not have a drop of Spanish blood in his/her veins. Tony the Marine 07:11, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Check out the question that I posted in the Luis Miguel talk page: Luis Miguel Mexican?, Puerto Rican? ....American?. Tony the Marine 21:47, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
I undid BlueShrek's edit to James Mitchell (wrestler). If you can provide a citation reference, then it can stay. Do you know of anything besides a YouTube link to prove this statement? Lord Sesshomaru
Here is another one:Talk:Ari Meyers Tony the Marine 02:41, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
Great! Thank you for your suggestion, and congratulations on helping get the article to Good Article status. I'll be sure to include it. Have a coquí! --Boricuaeddie hábleme 02:48, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Eddie has given you a coquí! Coquíes somehow promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving something friendly to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Make your own message to spread WikiLove to others! Happy editing!
That's right. If it passes GAC or FAC it should be presented. But this is just until the different sections are filled up. The Selected sections all have a maximum of 20 entries, so as long as there's space available, we should keep promoting articles. But when they fill up (eventually), then the process should change to a consensus-type decision. Until then, feel free to include GAs. But don't promote B-grade articles without discussing them first. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 11:15, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
I hear ya. Well, I've been kinda busy with work, and I haven't updated the Portal in a while. But if you wanna help, here's two tasks:
But any other help is appreciated, including suggestions and changes to the actual Portal page look. - Mtmelendez (Talk|UB|Home) 04:05, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Sure, I'd be happy to help you. I see you've attended to several of the comments from the failed GA, I'll have another look at the article and let you know what I think still needs some work. For a start, the two sections of most concern are the "Professional career" first section and then the "Winning and defending the WBO title" section. They both consist of a large number of single sentence paragraphs, which need to be better flowed to create good prose. The Rambling Man 07:29, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Sure, I'll help you. Like I've mentioned to you before, GAC's are brand new to me, so you'll probably have to walk me through this. Cheers, The Hybrid 17:14, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, I've added my share of theories here too. Might wanna check it out, oh and I reverted an edit by that supposed sockpuppet. The resemblance is uncanny, isn't it? Lord Sesshomaru
That it took so long. I was talking to Alkivar, and didn't see the new messages template until I saved the page. The Hybrid 04:41, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm feeding it through a spell check now. I'll read over it next. Peace, The Hybrid 04:46, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I just pasted a new version with the spelling and grammar fixed. I read it over, at it looks good. I'll go ahead and paste it in the article. Cheers, The Hybrid 04:56, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
Alright, glorious. Let me know if I can do anything. Cheers, The Hybrid 05:03, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I just got an email. Sorry I was gone for so long, The Hybrid 05:37, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm getting tired, actually. I just finished eating some good Mexican food, so I think that I will be going to bed. I'll source the section when I wake up. Cheers, The Hybrid 05:42, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
And thanks for the Coquí. Cheers, The Hybrid 05:42, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
I wasn't on yesterday either, except for a couple five-minute stretches. Cheers, The Hybrid 00:29, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Also, OWW states that the injury was legit. I just fed the version in your sandbox through a spell check, so I'll go ahead and paste it into the article. Cheers, The Hybrid 00:40, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi! Im an English teacher in Toluca Mexico (west of Mexico City). My Advanced B classes will be contributing to Wikipedia as the focus of their English course for Fall 2007. I am looking for people who would like to mentor my students (who will be working in groups) as they do the following assignments: Edit and article (adding a citation), writing a stub with a citation, translating an English language article for Spanish Wikipedia and for the final project, writing a full article for English Wiki (they can expand on the stub mentioned previously). What I would like to do is put a list of "mentors/adopters" on my talk page as a kind of short cut for my students, who have limited time to get things done. The semester begings Aug 6, but the real Wikipedia work wont begin until the beginning of Sept. If you would like to add your name to my list, please go to my talk page and add it there, perhaps with a short introduction, if you like.
Thank you!

Mi hermano, I didn't know that he called you that. Hey, pero no dejes que ese pend---, te daňe el dia. Tu Amigo Tony the Marine 20:04, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Could you keep an eye on the page? It looks like the guy renewed his IP to avoid breaking WP:3RR.-- bulletproof 3:16 01:36, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I took a look and since it was an administrator who protected the page because of all the reverts, I suggested that the issue be discussed in a civil way in the articles talk page and that he mediate. I'll keep my eyes open on the issue. By the way, I liked your suggestion on the Afirican Immigration issue.Tony the Marine 02:01, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Connell66 has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing!
Smile at others by adding ((subst:Smile)) to their talk page with a friendly message.
Hey, mi hermano, would you do me the honors of nominating African slave trade and immigration to Puerto Rico for GA? I couldn't think of a better person to ask since you have become a great friend of mine here. Tony the Marine 01:22, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
As far as copy editors go, I will file a peer review, assuming that what you meant is that you would like a third opinion from a more experienced editor. In response to the DVD, I'm afraid that I don't own it, sorry. Peace, The Hybrid 02:08, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
Ah, good. I didn't exactly feel like turning to the outside community for advice, but I don't know anyone who has made a Wikipedia career out of getting articles featured. Individual steps along that process, yes, but the entire process, no. Alright, that sounds good to me. Sorry that I haven't really done anything to help you. July is the big birthday month for my family, so I've been trying to earn some extra money. Cheers, The Hybrid 02:17, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, but that was relatively minor. You did all of the hard stuff, namely writing and sourcing. Anyway, enjoy the game. Cheers, The Hybrid 02:26, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
Why do you even ask? :-) I'm nominating some articles for deletion right now (see contribs), but, after I'm finished, I'll be glad to help. Thanks for letting me help! --Boricuaeddie 16:56, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

I do not want to touch that until the AfD closes. However, I am a bit hurt by what I feel is Tony's overreaction and incivility. It is clear he didn't read my merge proposal.
I would be happy with either of two outcomes:
1) Merge of both into an article with the title Black history in Puerto Rico but mostly the contents that African slave trade and immigration to Puerto Rico. (similar to your proposal, but with a different title).
2) Leave the articles separate, but move the non-imigration and non-slavery content to Black history in Puerto Rico, and put intros regarding immigration and slavery in Black history in Puerto Rico that points to African slave trade and immigration to Puerto Rico using Template:main. (my original proposal)
For me it is clear that African slave trade and immigration to Puerto Rico and Black history in Puerto Rico can both exists, and that Black history in Puerto Rico would be a parent article to African slave trade and immigration to Puerto Rico. But I can be convinced otherwise by argument and discussion.
On a technical note, I think that by now there probably are a few double-redirects, which need fixing, although I might be wrong. Thanks! --Cerejota 00:06, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
Hey DDF, what can you figure out of this knowledgeable newly-made user? Take a peek at his edits, compare them to the BlueShrek and/or other socks' edits and tell me your opinion. Thanks. Lord Sesshomaru
Received with thanks :) Chensiyuan 06:11, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

...I've been gone for so long. My computer got hit with a trojan horse and some adware, so I had to have it fixed. Anyway, I'll take a look at the GAC. Cheers, The Hybrid 21:28, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
Hey! I like the new name :-) I'm a little busy right now, so give me an hour and I'll see what the problem is :-) Happy editing! --Boricuaeddie 18:08, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
Hello. Since the article has been edited considerably since you posted your opinion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Infinite monkey theorem in popular culture (second nomination), is it possible you would want to add to it or adjust it before the discussion is closed? Michael Hardy 18:41, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
You misunderstood my usage of "blind," I think; you (perhaps) unknowingly also removed multiple good changes which were included in one fell swoop of an edit. All I'm saying is that you should be more careful in the future -- since all you wanted to do was remove one word, then do it manually, or at least check the history first to see all of what was changed in one particular edit. María (críticame) 22:36, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
I'll look into the sockpuppet. I wanted to make a comment on your comment in the FAC of "Hispanic Americans in World War II". Michael is not American, believe it or not he is an Australian, so you may want to fix your comment (smile). Take care. Tony the Marine 02:28, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
From what I understand User:EdwinCasadoBaez and the other IPS are the same person since they comite the same errors in grammar. I read, but it gets a little confusing so, I want you to tell me exactly what it is that is going on. Tony the Marine 06:51, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
Alright, I added my final ideas. What do you think here? Lord Sesshomaru 19:33, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
Cool! I'm of Spanish (of course) and Scottish ancestry. --Boricuaeddie 00:56, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
I have made a final decision on the Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/EdwinCasadoBaez. EdwinCasadoBaez has agreed on the terms, but the other guy wants blood. You can comment on it. Since my activeness has been reduced due to health problems, I would like you to keep an eye on these two at times and as soon one of them messes up, let me know and I will then have no pity. Tony the Marine 02:43, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi, a bunch of us at Wikiproject NBA have been working on the Tim Duncan article and have nominated it for FAC. I remember you made some useful suggestions during the Toronto Raptors FAC. Feel free to leave comments at the FAC here, if you're interested. Many thanks! Chensiyuan 13:35, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
It's been a while since we last discussed on Hector Lavoe. So I want to know, what's next? magiciandude (Talk) (review) 22:06, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
Hey, thanks for creating the box. Using the info on the NAM page I was able to stick the predecessor in. Turns out this is actually Castro's second time as Secretary-General of NAM, the first time having been in 1979-83. Thanks again, Nicolasdz 15:38, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
If he's a blatant vandal, then he should be reported to WP:AIV or WP:ANI. If blocked, the IP's should be tagged with ((IPsock)). I'll be looking into this, but you should tell the user to stop, and, if he doesn't, follow the steps above, since you know more about the situation than me. Happy editing! --Boricuaeddie 22:12, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
