Your import request
Hello. Unfortunately I've had to decline your request at WP:RM/TR for the simple reason that it is not possible for an English Wikipedia admin to make an import in the Spanish Wikipedia. That is, we can import stuff here no problem, but to import stuff on the es.wiki you need a Spanish Wiki admin. I'd suggest making your request on that project, but I don't know enough about that project to say exactly where you should make your request. Best, Jenks24 (talk) 12:04, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Good to know. I'll take a look, thanks. —2macia22 (talk) 16:02, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for the episode summaries of Elementary
I'm a big Sherlock fan and I like Elementary. I use the wiki article to keep track of the episodes and remind me of plots. Thank you for keeping the summaries up to date. :) Coldbreeze16 (talk) 21:32, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
 * You're welcome! I promise I'll get to the next episode as soon as I get around to watching it... haha. I'm hoping to get to cleaning up the summaries for the previous seasons eventually too! —2macia22 (talk) 22:29, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see you already did the next summary! Thanks :) —2macia22 (talk) 22:30, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
 * You'e welcome :p --Coldbreeze16 (talk) 12:05, 19 December 2015 (UTC)

Invasive species in Mexico
AWB adds unicode characters in places like "250 km" or "20 cm" because Wikipedia wants a non-breaking space in constructions like that — if the construction falls close to the end of a line of text, we don't want the line break to the next line falling between the number and the unit, but rather we need to ensure that the whole construction stays on the same line. Not everybody's viewing Wikipedia with the same screen resolution on their monitor or tablet or phone, so the fact that it might not appearing be anywhere near the end of a line for you doesn't mean it isn't appearing at the end of a line for somebody else — so it's actually a Wikipedia rule that number-unit constructions should always be written with the unicode for a non-breaking space between the number and the unit, and that's why AWB automatically does that. Hope that helps a bit. Bearcat (talk) 17:36, 25 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see. I think one of the earlier edit summaries looked like it said "removing unicode characters" when it was actually adding them, and I got really confused. Good to know! —2macia22 (talk) 23:51, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Citations for Invasive species in Mexico
Hello, On the talk page of Invasive species in Mexico, you requested that references be "Wiki-fied". I've started putting the references in as in-line citations using the citation templates, so that they appear in the body of the text as numbers and then in the list at the bottom of the page. The banner at the top of the article said not to edit while translation was in progress, but I haven't changed any content, only added citations in the text. Was this what you intended? If so, I'll carry on, if not, you can revert the changes. Please let me know. Thanks! DferDaisy (talk) 22:29, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
 * May I ask if you or plan to continue translating the remaining half of this article from Spanish? There's been an "in translation" tag there since December 2015, though I can't find the article from which it is being translated. Personally, I think the article is far too long and essay-like, and would be better off cut down and including (or linking to) a List of Invasive Species of Mexico based on those citations. Keep up the good work!Parkywiki (talk) 09:55, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't have any knowledge of Spanish, so am unable to contribute to the translation effort. Happy to help with citations though. DferDaisy (talk) 01:31, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
 * and Apologies for leaving the page in such disarray, I haven't been on the wiki in some time. I stumbled across it doing some work for the GOCE. To summarize the reason for its current state, it was originally written in Spanish on the English wiki; there is no corresponding page on the Spanish wiki, and I was unable to confirm a method of transferring it there, so I began translating it as is. It wasn't until after I began that I realized it was written in essay format. However some of the information seems valuable, so I intended to finish the translation and let someone more versed in wiki-style clean it up.
 * If there is interest, I could probably find the time to finish the translation this month. Properly formatted citations are a great help and, to me, a reason for the article to keep existing, but it certainly needs quite a bit of work. 2macia22 (talk) 03:42, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
 * There does seem to be some overlap in the top of the article with the general Invasive species page, but the more interesting Mexico-specific information is still left later in the article. Thanks for working on this, your time and expertise is appreciated. I'll continue with the citations. DferDaisy (talk) 04:56, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for finishing the translation of the article! DferDaisy (talk) 00:54, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

Rojos del Águila de Veracruz team name in English
You are invited to join the discussion at Talk:Rojos del Águila de Veracruz. I believe that you have been involved in translation edits on the Rojos del Águila de Veracruz article. Previously, this article has lacked a consensus by edit on the English translation of the team name & has gone back & forth. There is now a discussion on the talk page for which I ask you to to concur or object. The current iteration seems reasonable to me. Please do not change the English translation of the name from until we have reached a consensus through discussion. Peaceray (talk) 22:51, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

Translation request!
Hi, if you're so inclined: there are a number of people in the Spanish Wikipedia category Victimas de Sendero Luminoso who don't have English articles and don't have adequate English-language sources that I can find oonline. It would be nice if you could create articles for those people, even just one-paragraph stubs. Thanks, Prezbo (talk) 16:09, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the thought, and I will certainly look into some of these if I have time. Just want to let you know that I'm not particularly active these days and I'm also not super familiar with the process for creating new pages, so you may want to reach out to another user more active in the translation group. Thanks! 2macia22 (talk) 00:17, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
