The portal is really looking good. This week I'll be writing an Artcle related to the Corps, I'll tell you when it's done so that you can look it over. By the way, I notified the PR government in regard to Rafel Toro's name being omitted in the PR Monument and they'll be looking into it.
Because of your dedication and your excellent work in Wikipedia, I have inducted you to my "Wall of Honor" Tony the Marine 21:29, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
Thnx for fixing copy edit & picture formatting for next update. --Parker007 02:26, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
Let me clarify: Though laproscopic surgery has proven to be effective and is the usual, recomended treatment by doctors, due to the rarity of the disorder, few surgeries have actually been performed. --TBCΦtalk? 03:58, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

The page Template talk:Did you know seems to be backlogged, so I would like, in accordance with a request on the page, to attract your attention to it. Thanks very much. Jan.Kamenicek 19:33, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
The article was expanded from a stub-like state, but the expansion was not that drastic (only ~2x). I think it's fair to say it is ineligible. Nishkid64 19:56, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Mate
I would like to request the main article World War II to be once again semi-protected, it seems to be sufering from vandalism quite a bit. The article was previously semi-protected for a while, but has been un-locked now for new and un-registered users. Obviously, that was not a good decision.
I'm writing to you 'coz I saw you fix a small vandalism just now!
Many thanks -- Ash sul 01:33, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Never mind! Its already been done. Sorry to bother you with this. Many thanks -- Ash sul 01:35, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello,
Minutes before you cleared the NextUpdate page, admin Shanel had moved couple of my DYK noms from suggestions page to NextUpdate page. You can see that in the history. Can you please put those two nominations and the corresponding credits info back into that page, so that they will be considered in next appearance in main page? Thanks. - KNM Talk 05:19, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Is the protocol to give notices to the creator and the nominator? If so I have no problem. However, Chicago Theatre is a CHICOTW. If thanks are based on efforts, User:ChicagoPimp also deserves a notice. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 05:34, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

"Please do not add the Corporate crime category to companies/corporations for which there is not corresponding, verified information in the article." More details please. Cryptonymius 02:03, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Hello again. I read the article Corporate_crime and to tell you the truth I'm wondering if you have read it recently, because it says, among other things, "...given the absence of political control today, corporations serve to destroy the foundations of the civic community and the lives of people who reside in them." This is tantamount to saying that all corporations are evil, if not also mere criminal conspiracies.
And yeah it's a bad day in town when the mill shuts down, but to me this seems like radicalist propaganda or sheer conspiracy theory and if I were to take just a wild guess I would venture to say that there's more political control over everything than ever before in human history. And I'm no fan of large corporations, but frankly I don't think this article does such a great job of illuminating what the category of "corporate crime" is supposed to be about. I mean there's a few good paragraphs at the beginning, and a nice sentence at the end, but in the middle is a lot of stuff that seems extraneous and lacking in authority. And I feel obliged to point out that the last sentence mentions health and safety laws, and "damage to the environment" as "examples" of "criminal behavior," and at least here in the State of New York all those things are covered by laws completely separate from the criminal (penal) law, and may or may not carry "criminal penalties" such as imprisonment.
So what this sentence seems to be saying is that acts punishable by "civil penalties" can be considered criminal behavior.
In any case, please check my update to the ExxonMobil#Unethical_business_practices page/section because I've added the conclusion to the J. Bryan Williams case wherein this former executive was sentenced to jail and fined millions of dollars under the Foreign Corrupt Practises Act. There's a link to a US Department of Justice page which spells it all out. And of course what I'd like to know is whether you think a link to the Category of Corporate Crime is now justified. Cryptonymius 09:54, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello,
I had made DYK nomination for Origin of Karnataka's name, dated March 5th, well within time. It is just moved to expired noms. Can you please move it to NextUpdate? Thanks. - KNM Talk 03:48, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I think it would be better not to use the entry. It does look pretty good, but it probably shouldn't have even been created, since the information belongs in Cornice.-- Carabinieri 15:02, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi there, I returned an interesting article you put on WP:DYK next update.And this is why... What do you think?, cheers, Camptown 13:01, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your request, the reference/citation is A.J.Jackson / British Civil Aircraft since 1919 Volume 1 / ISBN 0 370 10006 9 (which is referenced in the article) Page 198 'G-ATHO to Maidenhead Organ Studios Ltd., Booker, for transporting electronic organs'. MilborneOne 21:26, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
G-ARRM and G-ATHO are the aircraft registrations - I have amended the article. MilborneOne 22:44, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Is the Jackson reference also the proper citation for the RAF order? Yes MilborneOne 12:25, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Please review the photograph at the next update for DYK. It has a watermark on the lower right hand corner. It also is a copyrighted image that is used under implied and not explicit permission. I had replaced the image with a Commons free use one on the article, but I was reverted by another contributor. My understanding is that a free use image should be used over one that is copyrighted with permission. The free use image has a rather unsightly crane in the background. The easiest solution would be to use the flag image. Royalbroil T : C 02:13, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

I like being an admin. I started with simple stuff, like attack speedy's, branched out, and mainly do attack speedy, nonsense speedy, AIV, and some 3RR and AFDs. I don't take on anything I have any doubts about. May branch out more later. Made a few minor errors, but nothing serious. This is a great way to learn more about wiki.

Thanks for finding the Mister Rogers reference. --Chris Griswold (☎☓) 06:52, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Maybe you can help me dig up some info. on RUDOLPH RIEFKOHL. According to: Los immigrantes Germanico de la zona sureste Rudolfo garduated with a degree from MIT and reached the rank of general in the Army (translation) and Descendants of Otto Julius Riefkohl COLONEL RUDOLPH W. RIEFKOHL, Education: MIT graduate, Engineering Fact 1: Childless, Military service: Brigadier General, U.S Corps of Engineer. Now, he was the brother of Rear Admiral Frederick Lois Riefkohl.
If we can confirm that he was a Brigadier General in the U.S Corps of Engineer, then he very well may have been the first Hispanic-American to reach the rank of General in the US.
He lived before the term "Hispanic" was established and before the formation of the PR National Guard. Maybe because he has a Germanic name, the fact the he was the first Hispanic General may have been lost to history, Who knows? It sure would be interesting to find out. Tony the Marine 17:08, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate that you put Piner-Olivet Charter School up for deletion. It had become such a bad article, which was just full of gossip, and I am quite happy that after the AfD results, it became deleted. Again, thanks so much for your help to improve the article, as well as putting it up for deletion when the time came to. Chickyfuzz14(user talk) 01:09, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Could you copyedit Marion Frederic Ramirez de Arellano? Thanks. Tony the Marine 15:59, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your dilligent efforts to improve Wikipedia. It is not correct to state that the image you deleted is included solely, or in any intentional way at all, to disparage the subject. Rather, it was to illustrate the nature of certain allegations of public misconduct, that are deemed to be inappropriate for inclusion in Wikipedia at this time. It was not my intention to disparage Mr. Cheney, only to bring to wider exposure certain allegations regarding his conduct. Thank you again. JPatrickBedell 05:32, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Just to let you know, I've been reporting a bunch of users who have created hoaxes to this checkuser. Most of those users edit/target articles related to My Gym Partner's a Monkey. They've added misinformation and fake episodes onto those articles (examples: [1], [2], [3], [4]). Most of thhe users reported also seem to have an interest in anime, The Fairly OddParents, Re-Animated (or anything that has to do with the movie), Ed, Edd n Eddy, and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. The users at the bottom of the checkuser are all confirmed sockpuppets of Danny Daniel, who was blocked indefinitely for being a vandal only account. I've reported other users who may be Danny Daniel's sockpuppets, such as Danny Morris Daniel 3162 and Jibbity, but the results turned out to be inconclusive. I just wanted you to be aware of this because you were dealing with the user Chacalaca. Squirepants101 15:29, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
I didn't add anything about biased statements did I? I was trying to have the user blocked because of his repeated violation of WP:NPOV. Please clarify! Thanks! Wikihermit 20:35, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, pretty cool. Hey, I just finished Puerto Ricans in World War II. Do you want to look it over and do the proper fixes? I would really be grateful. Tony the Marine 23:44, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
(P.S., yep, the PR National Guard article definitly needs expantion)
I don't know, I tought that they would look good with the top medals, but I'll go with the flow. I consider you the infobox man. Hey, I want to really thank you for helping me in the Puerto Ricans in World War II. You really did an outstanding job. Tony the Marine 05:59, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
In regard to the Puerto Ricans in World War II, I'm done for now, so be my guest with the copyediting. I'm going to wait until I receive any stats on the total of PR's who were members of the "regular" branches of the Armed Forces during that period before making anymore additions.

Dear ERcheck, I am the person who used the wrong method to delete articles and you did me warnings of make them with correct way. Since I didn't know in what way I could do it you have explained me. I have recently put Article for Deletion the Etienne Barbara, however, without further warning, and since the article was on discussion if it should have been kept or not, User:Stew jones, without even been an administrator two days after was on deletion, not pussing the discussion period (about five days), he removed the notice that the article is on deletion and writing that the result was keep. I would like you to make further actions for this vandalism. Thanks. KRBN 13:46, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
I don't see anything that makes Etienne Barbara notable. Some claim the fact that he played for his national team which I disagree. The WP:BIO is specific: Athletes: Competitors who have played in a fully professional league, or a competition of equivalent standing in a non-league sport such as swimming and tennis Competitors who have played or competed at the highest level in amateur sports. Competitors in college sports in the United States. Articles about first team squad members who have not made a first team appearance may also be appropriate, but only if the individual is at a club of sufficient stature that most members of its squad are worthy of articles.
Also I want to ask, why one administrator has the right to decide about if an article. I am asking this because Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Constantinos Makrides which was decided kept, there was a person who in few months more probably will have also administator right (User:Tellyaddict), supported delete. For what I mean, even if an administrator decide to be keep, amy another one disagree. Shouldn't that been decided by several administrators? At least that administrator must have some knowledge of football and to be member of Wikiproject football.
If Etienne Barbara will be keep, at least in WP:BIO must be written that international footballers are considered notable KRBN 16:16, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

I have some great news. RADM DeLoach from the Pentagon called me and they are interested in my work and want me to work in collaboration on a project about Hispanic Naval and USMC grads. It can be done in Wiki and I told them yes. I was thinking about recruiting you and Looper. I don't know how it is going to be done yet, but I was wondering if you would like to be part of it.
This is part of an e-mail that I received from Rear Admiral DeLoach:
Tony the Marine, The honor is mine to speak to such a dedicated patriot, educator, and writer. I marvel at your ability to collect, research, and synthesize vast of amount of material into great stories and articles about our cultural heritage. You are truly performing a great service for the future generations of our Country...

Hi The edits in relation to Paul Torriso I believe are genuine - wikipedia is not a place for self-promotion or advertisement. It should provide meaningful and useful encyclopaedic content and not lists of what media appearances this individual has had. Please respond with your thoughts otherwise the edits will be reapplied unless they are inappropriate - thanks in advance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zaf159 (talk • contribs) 23:56, 6 April 2007
A thousand thank yous for weighing in on this. This user has been driving me crazy for the past week. Take a look at my user contributions and you can see that I've tried to undo a lot of his damage. One thing I'm still having a problem with: Postcard Cathy removed my prod (well, she claims she did, although it was first done with an anonymous IP address) on Michael Evans (As The World Turns), which was one of his hoax pages. The other ones have been deleted, but when she first removed the prod (and did not mark it for AfD), I reverted it back, because the reasons given (again, by the anonymous IP address user) were clearly wrong (the only Google hits lead you back to the bogus Wikipedia entry.) She (under her own name) removed the prod again, and nominated it for AfD, then voted it a "Speedy Keep," still using the faulty research after I pointed out to her that it was wrong. I guess some people don't want to be confused by facts. (Check out her user page for a discussion I had with her.) One more thing: there are also several more IP addresses that he's been using and Chrisch helped out by reserarching them and putting warnings on some of those pages. (You can see the results at the bottom of my User Talk page.) I also reported Botaylor456 under WP:AIV (for his numerous edits, not to mention the article creations), but someone moved it to WP:ANI, and I don't think anyone ever did anything about it. Anything else I can do? --Proofreader J-Man 02:57, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
This page often seems to be backlogged. If the DYK template has not been updated for substantially more than 6 hours, it may be useful to attract the attention of one of the administrators who regularly updates the template, such as: User:ERcheck. --Parker007 03:05, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
How you doing? To answer your question, yes it is the first time that Puerto Ricans have participated in combat as commanders within the struvture of the United States Military. Before 1898, Puerto Ricans had played instrumental roles within the Spanish Military.
As proven by the interviews, Puerto Ricans did serve in regular non-segregated units. However stats, as stated and cited were not keep because Puerto Ricans were considered caucasian. Tony the Marine 14:10, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
That's a tough one since Hispanic contributions, including PR have been omitted in our history books. What motivated me to write about Pedro del Valle for example, was that I only found one sentence in about him in a book about WW II. I then didn't even find anything in the internet. I had to write to the USMC and the USMC museum in this regard and wha-la. So far I have relied on what I have found and nothing has pointed to any important roles beyond WW II. I don't know if I'm making any sense anymore. Tony the Marine 22:17, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
DeLoach has been suppling me lots of info for the project and so far he has reaffirmed my conclussion in regard to the PR. commanders. There have some more after WW II, but none before. Tony the Marine 23:28, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
Over "53,000" is an assumption from neta.com and more than 65,000 is also an assumption from American Veteran's Committee for Puerto Rico Self-Determination. However, the total exact number cannot be known. I quote from the National Museum of World War II: "How many Hispanic Americans served in the U.S. military during WWII? Between 250,000 and 500,000 . NOTE: These estimates are rough because at the time, the military categorized Hispanics under the same heading as whites. The only racial groups to have separate stats kept were Blacks and Asians." http://www.nationalww2museum.org/education/education_numbers.html We cannot go by assumptions therefore, it would be unfair to place a number of a total amount or speculation of a total. The fact is that a total amont of those who served is unknown. Tony the Marine 03:03, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
ER,
You know, it is real coinsidence how at a time when we are working on the Puerto Ricans in World War II article that you mentioned Ms. Rivas-Rodriguez. Today I received the following e-mail from Congressman Serrano's office:
tony Pbs is working on a wwll series directed by ken burns of the civil war series. Actually, I first became fascinated with the civil war after having watched the series. Apparently, the congressional hispanic caucus is not impressed with the notable absence of hispanics contribution during the war. Paula Kerger the president and ceo of pbs met with the caucas and offered to suggest changes. Tony, can you write to the hispanic caucas and suggest some additions or call congressmans garcias office and offer your expertise on the matter Then someone sent me this site in a message where Ms. Rivas-Rodriguez is mentioned. http://seattlepi.com/tv/310699_kenburnswar09.html
In a wierd way somehow all this seems to tie in together. Tony the Marine 03:58, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Fashionista (band), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add ((hangon))
on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

i request you don't become an inadvertant accomplice to RolandR's malicious activity by presuming the location of his comments to be the correct one. he has ignored the notice issued under the text (relating to the personal attack on me) and created a seperate out of chronological order complaint to make his complaint be "first" on the read list. however, the history of the page indicates that i reported a personal attack on me[8] and afterwards rolandR has posted his vandalism complaint above the section dealing with the issue[9]. Jaakobou 13:11, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
I am not really fussed about whatever the dispute is about - all I am simply saying is don't delete other peoples comments when you are involved in a dispute with them. That is very bad form - please don't do it. SFC9394 13:13, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
(edit conflict):You recently moved a comment made by another editor in the ANI report that the two of you are involved in. You are not to alter others comments. In this case, as you are an involved party, it is especially important that you do not even move other's comments to where you feel they are more appropriate. — ERcheck (talk) 13:14, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
ERcheck (talk and SFC9394. i did 'not delete or edit any comments.. only moved a misplaced comment to the proper chronological order since the other user has placed his "vandalism report" above my previous complaint for personal attacks. however, i agree that i should not move other user's comments which means i will only place links to my comments in the proper chonology. on a jokingly side (i hope you can take it on a lighter spirit side despite the heated situation) i was moving my own comments above rolandR's comments and not moving his comments down. </joke> on the serious side, user RolandR has removed the personal attack warning i issued on his user talk page. Jaakobou 13:25, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
Received this message in regard to stats:
"Tony, I do not have any historical statistics, nor does the Navy or Naval Academy...these records were not kept. When I was combing the USNA Alumni database to find Commodore Robert Lopez, I did notice a few other Hispanics who attended the Naval Academy but did not graduate. Each class that enters the U.S. Naval Academy has a 30-40% historical attrition rate from start to finish...so did expect to see a few Hispanic names who did not make it to graduation. My 1978 Naval Academy class started out with 1588 freshmen and we graduated 942. The Navy did not keep statistics on ethnic backgrounds until the late 70's...this has been a challenge for historians and researchers. Jay"
Made changes recommended, ready to post after you do the reference thing on two new references that I added. Tony the Marine 21:08, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
I'll be gone for 8 days. Starting on the 18th, Baltimore,New Jersey, New York, Cooperstown and Boston. Tony the Marine 01:03, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
"Tony, Commodore is an official flag rank when used during wartime and is a one-star admiral, equivalent today to rear admiral (lower half). Commodore is also used as a title when in command of a squadron of ships or submarines...which does make it a little confusing. In the 1990's the Navy re-instated the use of Commodore as a flag rank but discontinued its use a few years later mainly because our allies were confused and wanted to interface with a 'real' admiral. In the case of Robert Lopez, his rank is an official flag officer rank earned during WWI. Since the Civil War, the flag officer ranks and names in the Navy have varied and is another history lesson or article onto itself. All that said, Robert Lopez should not be removed from the list of Hispanic Admirals because he is an official flag officer. This is my recommendation. Thanks, Jay"
I'm going to reinstate the Lopez section, but to avoid confussion I'll omit the word "Commodore". Tony the Marine 03:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

No, I know that you don't question DeLoach knowledage on the subject. What I mean't is that he proided that info. The source being: Jennifer Bryan, historian of USNA <bryan@usna.edu> 04/11/07 6:48 PM. Besides providing this from the Academy's historical records:
Born March 31, 1857 in Davenport, Iowa. Admitted to USNA September 29, 1874. Appointed from Tennessee, 9th Congressional District. Joseph C. Lopez, Memphis, Tennessee, railroad agent, listed as parent or guardian.
Retired June 30, 1911 with the rank of commodore (rear admiral (lower half). Died September 20, 1936 in Alameda, California.
Bryan also provided the following sources to back up her statements: , October 1, 1936 (page 25) and NY Times article "Navy Board Retires Fourteen Officers," July 4, 1911 (page 13).

About a month ago you nominated one of my articles for Did You Know. About a week ago, this article, Cecil A. Bickley, was deleted. He was one of the founders of Denver City, TX. Do you have the authority as an administrator to restore the article?
It seem wrong to delete an article that was used for DYK.
Thanks for any help that you may render.

I have not engaged in 3RR violations. Furthermore, the other editors are engaging in an edit war. Rather than explain why the medical expert's advice is bad, they just keep reverting (without any compromise) the campaign spin, not the NPOV version that wikipedia is supposed to be. Jersyko and Tvoz are those other editors. Furthermore, they attack me and do not "assume good faith". On the other hand, I do not attack them even when I can see they are not being fair or objective.Annalissette 20:53, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi there. I see you've now encountered the Torrisholme vandal(s)/socks of user:Graham Heavy. They're obviously persistent, and lately they've been hitting the pages once a day or so with aged accounts to avoid the semi-protections. Unfortunately a checkuser-IPCheck showed open proxies [11], so we'll just have to watch and revert. Regards, Flyguy649talkcontribs 14:48, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:TITN BOTW cover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Fair use and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.
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. feydey 10:05, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Thabks ER for looking after things. It was 8 days of non-stop sightseeing. The things that really impressed me the most was going to the building that I was born and raised in 57 years ago. It is in Simpson St. the Bronx. The city built condos all around it and has preserved that particular building. I also enjoyed going inside the USS Constellation and the house in which Babe Ruth was born-in when I visited Baltimore and going to the USS Constitution (Old Ironsides) in Boston.

Howdy ER. I noticed your remark on the user page of 64.25.25.7. This user has vandalized the JetBlue Airways page. I can't link the affected page, but it's time reference is 19:48, 26 April 2007. I debated requesting that the user cease and desist, but when I saw your final warning and your admin status I figured I should alert you. Hope this helps. Thank you.

I have removed the ((prod)) tag from BowieNet, which you proposed for deletion, because its deletion has previously been contested or viewed as controversial. Proposed deletion is not for controversial deletions. For this reason, it is best not to propose deletion of articles that have previously been de-((prod))ed, even by the article creator, or which have previously been listed on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. If you still feel the article should be deleted, please don't add the ((prod)) template back to the article, but feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks!

You are the second Admin to delete the tag, rather than the article - without reading the Talk Page it would seem. Until the references requested are provided we must assume the article is an invention/hoax. (Sarah777 14:53, 29 April 2007 (UTC))

ER, I was wondering if Joseph V. Medina would be a good candidate for featured bio in the portal, since he was the first United States Marine Corps officer, in history to take command of a Naval flotilla. What do you think? Tony the Marine 21:20, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi. From the protection policy:
Emphasis mine. Your user talk page appears to have been protected since September 2006 – that seems pretty permanent to me – and the level of vandalism prior to that was nowhere near the level usually warranted for semi-protection of a page (a single user vandalizing from a single IP range). Before that one incident I don't see any anonymous edits at all for over a month. Certainly far, far less than what some of us mere mortals without the ability to protect our own talk pages at will have to deal with. Is there a good reason to keep this page protected? – Gurch 19:14, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Got rid of the redlinks in Medina's article. I agree with you, I'll look into doing an article about the whole ESG concept. In regard to the List of Hispanics, They better do something about it because as it is, it will become one hell of an disorganized and unmanageable list. Tony the Marine 20:46, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed you reverted (and warned) anon user 76.97.5.111 about a change he recently made to an article. This user has also been vandalising my Talk page, by re-inserting a bogus warning from a banned sockpuppet which I ad removed. I suspect this user is the same as 68.219.149.22, since that user did the same to my page a while ago. anon user 76.97.5.111 has already been blocked before for vandalism, I was hoping you could block him again. Teens! 03:57, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
He's back at it again today:[12] Teens! 04:14, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
It is kind of funny because it really isn't my birthday. It was on March 9, but thank you all for your kind words and support.
As you all know, some hacker cracked my password and I have been stripped of my admin powers. I can understand an admin. being blocked, but stripped of his powers without a fair hearing or consensus, I can't. I have stated that I changed my password and would like my powers back, however the chastizing going on in [[13]] has sadden me. It doesn't matter how many articles you have written, contributions you have made or how many years you have dedicated to making this project a credible one. A hacker, it seems has the power of making people consider you an untrustful person and turning some people in the community against you.
I have never abused of my powers and I have used Wikipedia as a medium to educate others. Yes, I have no regrets about having made so many contributions to the Pedia. I exhort all of my friends here to make sure that their passwords are strong ones so that you will not have to go through what I am going through.
I did promise some of my friend a couple of articles and as a good Marine I will keep my promise. To my friends here, Thank you for your friendship. Tony the Marine 23:36, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
hey. Please do not edit Westbrook Intermediate School anymore. The only editors are people who go there, and last time I checked, you do not sound like someone who goes to this school.

Ok.I started the site to let our school be known. At first, it was a joke, but now I am serious about it. I am trying to get the bloggers to stop, but for them to stop as soon as possible, I need to get them to stop on my own. So, if you please, let me edit it and get rid of the fake stuff, otherwise, they will not stop. I can get them to quit the dumb info. Please cut back on the editing of the site. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cdguy06 (talk • contribs) 03:07, 8 May 2007

I was looking at the article and why wasn't I surprise to see how you have improved it? I will do as you asked me, I'll see if I can dig up some more info. I have been working on a couple of articles. I was trying to find out who the first female Hispanic graduate of the USNA was ( I asked DeLoach ) and I found out that Capt. Linda Garcia Cubero, from the USAF Academy was the first female to graduate from any American Academy, so you know that I want to write that one. I will be working on ESG soon, I think that'll be a good one. Tony the Marine 05:30, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Do mean the story about the Army's song album with the Marine in its cover? Men, what a blooper! Right now I'm recharging my mental batterires. I'm planning to counterattack PBS's and Ken Burns documentary "The War", which will air in September and which has totally omitted the Hispanic contribution to the WW II effort. I hope to write a really good article in the future to this respect and try to have it FA'ed so that maybe it can be posted on September. I'm in no rush though, I'm in my planning stages. Tony the Marine 00:26, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

I did some more work on the Notes section after your last edit. I keep forgetting to fill out the edit summary before I save but I will get better at it. RE: Question "Jeffrey Ethell and Alfred Price (1989). Footnote #4 - is this for page 141 or pages 55-61 or both?" I am pretty sure it is both. I changes it that way until I can go back to the library and verify page number 141. I could not tell from my notes. Thanks again. Colgator (talk)

Please don't create an unnecessary dispute between us over a worthless AFD. Keep these messages on the AfD or merely get over it. Bulldog123 20:55, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Doug Hegdahl, needs tagged. I met this guy when I went to SERE school and added info on that to his article.Rlevse

I just reread the sources already cited, especially her Ford Motor Company bio, and added to it. The only fact, common knowledge in PR, that I have to seek a source for, is the Berrocal foundation info. She and Bill Ford were close friends of Jose Berrocal at Princeton. When he died of cancer, they set up a foundation in his honor (heavily endowed by Ford Motor Company) which every PRican seeking to pursue grad studies in business knows is the biggest source of scholarships in that field at that level. I'll work at sourcing the Berrocal angle. Thanks for alerting that her article could use more "carne" !Pr4ever 11:19, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
I added some sources in her Talk page. Hope it helps.Pr4ever 02:18, 12 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 Hispanics in general. You are more then a friend, you are my brother. "Que Dios te Bendiga" Tony the Marine 22:26, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

How about a Portal dedicated to the early "Marines", Revolutionary War era? Do we have info on the battles that they participated? Images of uniforms used during that era? Marines who distinguished themselves? What do you think? Tony the Marine 19:00, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
Hello sir. I noticed you edited the marine corps LINE combat system page. I understand what was originally written there but my father is the originator, Ronald Donvito. And according to him there are some accurate statements there, but for the most part it is not a true description. He left you a message in the discussions area of the page, if you want to contact him. If not thank you for your time and God Bless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.191.55.190 (talk • contribs) 04:19, 29 June 2007
Could you please block 74.12.208.99 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) for 3RR violation on ACN Inc.? I'm tapping you because you reverted the vandalism. Thank you. Shalom Hello 06:56, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
I was going to write it for the July issue, but found out it has already been done "Continental Marines". Tony the Marine 01:10, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Sir, I have no intentions of breaking any of the rules of this forum. However, the information that has been posted previously is in error. I am assuming that this was done accidentally. My only goal is for the information to be factual. If there is a way that you can direct me to post this factual information without breaking any of the rules or regulations of this forum I would be extremely grateful. I very rarely use the internet, I apologize for my ignorance. The information that I have posted is factual. Although there may be personnel that can be contacted that have attended one or more of the cited meetings. I am the only person to have attended all of them. I am sure from your record of historical writing that you also are only interested in posting the truth. I tried to write the information on the system without prejudice or slant. I would be more than happy to answer any questions on the LINE System and/or its history with you and have you submit the article if that is more in line with the rules of the forum. My vested interest is in having the information posted on the LINE System be factual.
