List of famous Puerto Ricans
Man, I know what you mean. Some of these people editing can be a pain in el "culo". Anyway, who exactly is the editor deleting the names? Here is a solution, add something like this to the introducing paragraph "This is a list of people who were either born in Puerto Rico, are descendents of Puerto Ricans or have chosen Puerto Rico as their homeland." By doing so, it is clear that there will be non-Puerto Ricans in the list that have contributed and dedicated themselves to the island and therefore, considered by many of us as "Puerto Ricans". This way the person deleting the names will not be justified in doing so. I'm always on the look-out when it comes to the miliatry and science sections. In one case I noticed that someone deleted Adam Clayton Powell IV's name and I fixed it. Tell me what you think. Tony the Marine 18:52, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree with you 100%. Sometimes due to an Ango surname, editors might be mistaken that they are nopt Puerto Rican. However, some such as Kate Donnelly should not be included in the list unless that person has spent considerable amount of their life in Puerto Rico. She is reviled by many on the island as being a reason that her husband has become so anti-nationalist and also blame her for encouraging him to cover up the Cerro Maravilla scandal. --XLR8TION 19:59, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Very few people "revile" doña Kate, and even if you believe that is so, an opinion which I respect, that is no reason to remove her, just as one would not remove criminals, outlaws, terrorists or defeated politicians. I have never heard absolutely anyone "blame her for encouraging him to cover up the Cerro Maravilla scandal" or "being a reason that her husband has become so anti-nationalist". Don't be an apologist for Romero Barceló. Whatever he did and whatever he believes in, nobody should be blamed but himself! You specifically removed former first ladies who are no longer active. That is contrary to the definition/introduction to the List, which states: "Neither is the list viewed from the context of the present. Their fame could be brief, what matters is that they were well-known during the peak of their popularity." First Ladies were all certainly well-known during the peak of their popularity. Doña Kate must be close to 70 and has lived in Puerto Rico for over 40 years---more than 80% of her adult life, which certainly covers the "residency" requirement to be on the list. She's remained active, raising funds for the children of dead policemen and served as trustee for the Puerto Rico Conservation Trust. What list would you put her in but this one? Every First Lady should be on the list, alive, dead, active or inactive. [comment left by 200.50.30.205 ]

First, Please sign your comments. Second, marriage to a politician does not make one famous. Only First Ladies who have labored for social issues should be recognized. There are many wives of politicians who have really never done anything and remained in the shadows of their husbands. To me and many others, this doesn't make one notable.--XLR8TION 11:35, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

If only "First Ladies who have labored for social issues should be recognized", when will you start deleting names from the "First Lady of the United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" page which "incorrectly" lists them all? ...or should I eliminate Mamie Eisenhower and a few other less notable First Ladies and justify my edits by citing your parameter?

The fact is that while all First Ladies, almost without exception initially became notable because they were married to their husbands, they did become notable figures in their time and, additionally, many took up notable projects, while "in office" and after they ceased to be First Ladies. In doña Kate's case, not only did she develop many worthwhile "social issues" (as you call them, although who are you or me to judge them!) but has continued doing so long after moving out of La Fortaleza. For over 22 years since she left the Governor's Mansion, she raises and pays out funds to the children of slain policemen so they can complete their studies. Is that not a worthwhile "social issue"? Additionally, she has served as one of three Trustees, appointed by the US Secretary of the Interior, of the Puerto Rico Conservation Trust, the quasi-public entity that has done the most for environmental conservation and historic preservation. Not more than 20 or 25 people have ever held the ad honorem yet immensely prestigious position of Trustee of the PRCT. [another comment left by 200.50.30.201]

 NEWSFLASH: Kate Donnely Barcelos isn't Puerto Rican. She moved to Puerto Rico due to the fact she was married to Barcelo (aka El Asesino). If she wasn't married to Barcelo she would probably be living in the Hamptons with her WASP husband Chip and their kids Muffin, Becky, and Theodore. Once again, marrying a Puerto Rican doesn't make one Puerto Rican. Same goes for somone being famous for having a famous husband. --XLR8TION 15:40, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Puerto Rican First Ladies
To the people involved, The proper forum for the discussion in regard of the "first ladies of Puerto Rico" would be the talk page of the "List of Puerto Ricans".

I would like to state the following. I believe that only those who have made notable contributions to society in general, be either positive or negative, and that are either Puerto Ricans, Puerto Rican descent or have adopted Puerto Rico as their homeland should be in the list. These should be personal accomplishments which have given these people a certain degree of fame.

A person is not famous or notable just because she was a "First Lady" unless that person's personal accomplishments has been notable. For example: Former first ladies Betty Ford]] is notable because she established a renowned rehab. center and Hillary Clinton because she became a Senator and is running for president. These ladies can be "listed" as famous Americans, yet what did Julia Dent Grant accomplish besides being a first lady? It would fine to have Mrs. Grant's name in a "List of First Ladies", but not in a "List of famous Americans".

I suggest that one of the persons involved in this discussion create a "List of Puerto Rican First Ladies" and list these ladies there.

Take this as an example, I created the article Puerto Rican recipients of the Distinguished Service Cross. There I have listed the fourteen Puerto Ricans who were awarded the second highest military decoration of the United States. Only one of these men merits to be in the list of "Famous Puerto Ricans" and that is Modesto Cartagena because he is the most decorated Hispanic soldier in history. Tony the Marine 19:23, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Bravo Tony! Great idea. You hit right on the point. Marrying someone doesn't make one famous. Regarding First Ladies, there should be a list of them for any nation/country, however to incorporate "non-active" First Ladies of Puerto Rico who have not contributed to the greater good of the island/world, then they are just like an extension of their married surnames. Action speaks louder than words. Sitting in a chair and saying one is the governor's wife while he works and one watches telenovelas at home does not make one famous. --XLR8TION 19:41, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Tony---you have the wisdom of Solomon. As a result, probably the only First Lady that might be kept on the List of Puerto Ricans would be Jeannette Ramos, Gov. Sánchez Vilella's second wife, since she served for many years as a Superior Court Judge (she studied law and was appointed years after ceasing to be First Lady and very few would attribute her appointment to her prior stint as First Lady) and as one of the first female Appellate Court Judges. The rest were famous for being married to... I look forward to seeing the "List of Puerto Rican First Ladies", or perhaps, better yet, the "List of First Ladies of Puerto Rico" so that Gov. Tugwell's wife, for example, can be included. BTW, doña Kate moved to Puerto Rico prior to becoming Mrs. Romero Barceló, and not as a result of knowing or marrying him. She has lived in Puerto Rico for about 50 of her close to 70 years, a very substantial part of her lifetime, so while under Tony's fair suggestion, she qualifies from the adoption-of-Puerto-Rico criteria, she fails the independently-famous test!

Thanks for uploading Image:Deniseq2.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

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

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria.

Uma vs Wilma
Please note, that this is really a content dispute at this point. It might be more productive if you did not refer to other person's edits as vandalism in your edit summaries, but rather point them to the renaming discussion and ask that they leave the name as it is pending the outcome. If people insist on changing it and ignoring the discussion, you could always ask warn them for disruption. --After Midnight 0001 16:18, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Please assume good faith and do not make false accusations that I have violated 3RR as that clearly is not true. I would suggest you either leave the page as-is until the move request is sorted, or at least bring up the issue in a considered manner on the talk page rather than continuing to revert.  You are not the only editor with a viewpoint on this matter and I ask that you respect other editors' opinions. --  PageantUpdater  •  talk  |  contribs  |  esperanza  00:30, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Again I ask you to assume good faith. I have never violated 3RR and that is clear from the article history.  Let's just wait until the move request is dealt with and go from there.  And again, your claims that I "own" the article are ridiculous.  There are a number of other editors who agree with my viewpoint, but it appears you are the only one persistently reverting the article.  I suggest you look at the my last post on the Talk:Wilma Blasini Perez page re Google News Hits.  I think that is pretty conclusive evidence that the name chance is warranted.  If you disagree, bring it up there, don't make personal attacks on my talk page. --  PageantUpdater  •  talk  |  contribs  |  esperanza  20:28, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Mediation should have waited until the move request process was completed - and only if people were unhappy with the solution. In the interim, please accept the community consensus solution which is to use a piped link showing "Uma Blasini". I am warning you that a further revision will be a violation of 3RR. -- PageantUpdater  •  talk  |  contribs  |  esperanza  22:28, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

I agree with this and for same reason I decided not to agree with the mediation proceess. 208.59.119.30 00:51, 2 April 2007 (UTC) To the parties involved, I looked at the source posted in Wilma Blasini's article and it mentions her as "Uma Blasini". It was my mistake to revert. I recommend that it remains as "Uma Blasini" for now, which seems to be the most common name she is referred to, even if it is her "nickname". There are more important things in Wikipedia to tend to. Tony the Marine 17:52, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Bishop Angel Marcial
With the exception of Catholic Bishops Alvaro Corrada and Roberto González Nieves, Pentecostal Bishop Angel Marcial is the only other ecclesiastical leader in Puerto Rico who has held an important ecclesiastical office on the mainland United States. I believe that his deletion from the list of prominent Puerto Ricans should be reconsidered and he should be reinstated. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 200.50.30.90 (talk) 21:32, 7 April 2007 (UTC).

Sylvia Mendez
I'm sorry my brother, but on this occasion I had to revert you on the "List of Puerto Ricans". See it so happens that Sylvia Mendez's mother, Felicita, was Puerto Rican. See: and I quote:

"'In Orange County, Gonzalo Mendez, a tenant farmer in Westminster, and his wife Felicitas, a native of Puerto Rico, along with a group of Mexican American World War II veterans asked a fundamental question about their communities: If we are good enough to fight and die alongside Anglos, then why are my children not good enough to attend the same schools as their children? Early in 1945, They filed a lawsuit in federal court in Los Angeles against four Orange County school districts--Westminster, Santa Ana, Garden Grove and El Modena (now eastern Orange)--seeking an injunction that would order their schools' integration.'"

Plus, I also obtained some of my info from an interview in People en Espanol (March 28, 2007)"Cambio Historico (Historic Change)": pages 111-112 by Isis Sauceda (I have the copy). There she herself states that she is half Mexican and half Puerto Rican because of her mother.

You know that you're my friend and that I never revert you, but in this case I had too. Remember, some websites may assume that she is "Mexican" because the writers themselves assume that every Hispanic from California is of Mexican heritage, but when she herself clearly states her true hertiage in public then we must accept it as such.

License tagging for Image:Mannydj.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Mannydj.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Thank You All
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 [] 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 friends 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 00:25, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Kgnofficial.jpg.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Kgnofficial.jpg.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Entre-Nos's plagiarism
Hi. Just to say that my suggestion is that you don't be too tough on Entre-Nos. My feeling is that he (or she) is genuinely trying to contribute. It can also be hard sometimes to recognize and avoid plagiarism.

 * Copied over from my talk page: Thanks for sharing your articles with me. You're right that they're good models.   I especially like the one on the Normandie Hotel just because I've had a drink in the bar there, and agree that it's a great building.  :)
 * As for the problem with Entre-Nos's entries. Again, I think that he (I'll assume it's a he for the time being) really thinks these people are notable, and to demonstrate this has written articles on them, though they are unfortunately plagiarized as you yourself have pointed out.
 * Yet it is certain that the most recent three figures, Awilda Carbia, Marta Romero, and Sonia Noemi, though hardly superstars, are sufficiently notable to have fairly lengthy biographies on the Fundación Nacional para la Cultural Nacional website.  Of course, it might be open to dispute as to whether everyone on that list deserves a place on the List of Puerto Ricans.  But if you're into that kind of thing (and I'll admit that I'm not), you might think that they deserve to be there as much as a DJ such as Manny Lehman, a councilperson such as Rosie Méndez, or even the many Puerto Rican baseball players who are also on Wikipedia.
 * Personally, I'm pretty neutral. As long as the articles are good, unplagiarized of course, and not merely vanity pieces, then I feel why not?
 * One way of seeking wider consensus might be to remove the plagiarized material from his articles (i.e. basically reduce them to a stub) and then take them to AfD.
 * You might also consult with Tony the Marine, as after all he's an admin and has much more Wikipedia experience than I do. --jbmurray (talk|contribs) 02:15, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

List of Puerto Ricans
This is the message I left with Tony the Marine and Pr4ever. Feel free to pass it along to others:

Hi. Following some disagreements at Talk:List of Puerto Ricans and discussion at my talk page, we're suggesting trying to work out some consensus about recent additions to List of Puerto Ricans, particularly those made by User:Entre-Nos. We'd value your input. --jbmurray (talk|contribs) 05:16, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Markindelicatopromo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

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

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jackofalltradesmasterofnone 12:23, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

FYI
I reported Entre-Nos for 3RR. He's trying my patience. --jbmurray (talk|contribs) 20:10, 13 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Copied over from my talk page: Hi. I think a community ban is going a little far right now.  I suggest a more gradual approach.  Hence I've reported his reverts.  If necessary, and if he continues not to respond, we can take it to RfC or ANI.  A community ban is, as I understand it, the very last stage in such a process.  Anyhow, I continue to think that he's acting in good faith, but he's certainly going the wrong way about things. --jbmurray (talk|contribs) 21:14, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

List of Puerto Ricans
Good! Merge is the way to go. Now we can get started in transferring the names of those who are truly notable to the other list. XLR8TION and Jbmurray first add your names here WikiProject Puerto Rico/Notability Criteria where you agree as overseers of the list to make sure that any additions to the same meet the criteria established. Then start transferring the names. Notice that the names in the List of notable Puerto Ricans are in alphabetical order by first name because it is much easier to manage (you know how it is with the surnames in our culture).

Jbmurray, since your main specialty is, and not limited to, literature (my main thing is the military, educators and scientist), transfer the names in the section "Authors, playwrights and poets" which meet the criteria.

XLR8TION, You do the same and especially add the Diplomat section which you have worked so hard on.

Notice: Most of the names are already posted in the new list.

The good thing about the new list is that if a person adds a name of a non-notable, once you make your revert, you just add "person fails to meet criteria" to the edit summary, no fuzz no discussion. Of course anyone one can go to the talk page and try to make a case, but the committee (which you will be a member of) will decide if the criteria is met.

After the transfers are made, let me know and I will then proceed to delete the "List of Puerto Ricans" and make a redirect of "List of famous Puerto Ricans" to the new list. Tony the Marine 20:14, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Co-Op City, Bronx, New York
Please give a VALID REASON as to why you are undoing my removal of Stanley Jefferson, Christian Regenhard, and Sally Regenhard from the article. These persons are by Wikipedia standards, non-notable persons. (Please see: Notability for further explanation). Either justify your undoing of my edit, or please leave my edits alone!

Suggestion
In regard to the "List of Puerto Ricans" and Bios of PR's. Since the parties involved (Entre-Nos) cannot reach a friendly agreement, I suggest that the situation be presented in a civil manner to the following forum: Requests for administrator attention and that the discussion (fight) in the talk page be put to an end. It would be best for other administrators, who are not Puerto Rican, became aware of the situation and point out what is expected in "Wikipedia". The topics to discuss in the forum should be about what is considered "plagiarism", "copyright violations" and "facts". Tony the Marine 01:28, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Tony, thanks for pointing that out. I am working on it now.--XLR8TION 02:08, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Sallyregenhard2.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Sallyregenhard2.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 02:11, 20 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 02:11, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

David Zayas article
Hi, hope you're doing good. Awhile ago, after getting in the Wikipedia website and right before logging in, I saw a message from you left at my IP address - not at my user's account. The message read: Please stop vandalizing David Zayas's entry on the list of Puerto Ricans. You have been told three times to stop. This is the final warning before the issue is referred to a site administrator for further action. David Zayas is a Puerto Rican actor with an extensive filmography. PLEASE STOP VANDALIZING! --XLR8TION 11:14, 30 May 2007 (UTC) I must say that I didn't know who David Zayas was, I had never entered his article page, much less edit it. The vandalism you allege was committed by someone by my IP address was not mine. However, strangely enough, in the article history, there are no accounts of any vandalism committed by someone with my IP address. Anyway, hope that clarifies it. I've been a frequent contributor to Wikipedia for a while now and I always edit under my username. I hope there's no misunderstanding about this. Take care. Thief12 01:13, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Dear Luis,

I would like to share with you that today, November 28, 2007, I was honored by the Senate of Puerto Rico with the "Resolution of the Senate Number 3603" in appreciation for my work in Wikipedia regarding Puerto Rican military related articles.

George Tames reference
The source being used is not reliable as it is a blog, something that cannot be considered reliable per WP:RS. Also, the blog itself mentions nothing of The Simpsons Movie so it cannot be used as a source to say that the movie is referencing it. All it shows is that the photos exist, but without proof that the Simpsons animators actually referenced it for the scene, its Original research and so should not be included. I see the likeness, but unless the source is reliable, and mentions the photos being referenced in the film, it cannot be included. If you still disagree, then I have created a discussion of the articles talk page. Gran2 14:30, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
