[edit] Image copyright tags

Thanks for uploading Image:Ade m-1-.gif. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag.

Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, Zzyzx11 (Talk) 14:44, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

• Could you also please add an image copyright tag to all of the other images you recently uploaded? Zzyzx11 (Talk) 14:44, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] improper moving

When you want to move an article to La Liga to Spanish First Division, do not move it by copy&paste because that loses the history. I've moved it properly, I've got admin rights to ditch a redirect. You simply should have asked. --Joy [shallot] 14:34, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

Also, on a more content-related note, did you consider what to do with LFP overall? Most references are to the first division, but there could be another page for the league organization that would be an intro to all divisions. --Joy [shallot] 14:38, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

Maybe I'm being obtuse here, but you can't read or something? You just did another improper move with Template:Spanish Handball First Division, and there there was absolutely no technical reason not to use the fine move option. What is the problem? --Joy [shallot] 01:22, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Hi. Would it be possible for you to tag all the images you have uploaded recently with the correct tag? I think the one you are looking for with the football club logos is {{logo}}. Others can be found at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. If you need any more help, feel free to contact me on my talk page. Cheers, [[smoddy]] 16:45, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Yes,I am safe and these are the correct tags, nevertheless, what is your problem? [[Raymond Cruise]] 19:00, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Um, what is your question? If you are asking why I asked you to put those tags on, it was because Wikipedia needs to protect itself against accusations of copyright violation, so we must note where our images came from and why we think we are allowed to use them. It is to protect ourselves. Cheers, [[smoddy]] 17:05, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

I put the tags, but i dont understand,what is your problem? Smody [[Raymond Cruise]] 19:20, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Related to this, you seem to have tagged two of your uploaded images for Swedish football clubs with {{hqfl logos}}, which seems rather strange, as I can't find them on the HQFL site. This goes for Image:Halmstads BK.png and Image:IFK Göteborg.png (which is a better pic than the one used before, where have you found it?). -- Elisson • Talk 17:03, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

This pics, indeed:Johan Ellison, are good pics with better quality of image. The sources;Johan Ellison, I do not say it, they are personal. [[Raymond Cruise]] 19:15, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

That was not my main question. I wanted you to change tags on the two images to more proper ones. Can you do so, please? Why can't you reveal your sources, are you afraid that I would "steal" the images? -- Elisson • Talk 17:24, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

The pics;Johan Ellison, they are not robbed, absolutely.The second question: why i must change the photos? [[Raymond Cruise]] 19:30, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Firstly, my name is Elisson, not Ellison. Secondly, I don't think they are robbed. Thirdly, I want you to change the tag on the photos as the tag currently used ({{hqfl logos}}) is not correct as the images are not from HQFL.dk (as far as I can see). -- Elisson • Talk 17:36, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

OK Johan Elisson, but ,which i must put? only this;Johan Elisson. [[Raymond Cruise]] 19:40, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

The one that [[smoddy]] suggested in his first post, {logo}}. -- Elisson • Talk 17:45, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Which is this? is incorrect. Secondly, which are the photos to resolve? [[Raymond Cruise]] 19:50, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Probably most of the ones on here. [[smoddy]] 17:56, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

All the pics?, and what tags I put in its place? [[Raymond Cruise]] 20:00, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

I've started nominating them for deletion at WP:IFD#August 25 images from Raymond Cruise. Also, note that an image can't be a "fair use" if it isn't used. dbenbenn | talk 18:00, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Are you actually a native English speaker, as your user page indicates? No offense, but your contributions to BM Ciudad Real look like something from Babelfish. For example:

The complexity and the normal difficulties of the phase of adaptation did that those competitions that disputarón nothing else to practically begin the season, as it is the case of Supercopa of Spain and Supercopa of Europe, in the months of September and October respectively, were settled negatively; losing Supercopa of Spain with the F.C. Barcelona by 25 - 26 and being third in Supercopa from Europe when losing in semifinals again with the F.C. Barcelona by 26 - 27, and winning in the dispute by the third and fourth position to Montpellier by 29 - 28.

Please explain where you got this sentence. dbenbenn | talk 19:09, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:FC Metz.gif. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear.

[edit] ACB/Asobal

Hola Raymond. He visto que has subido logotipos de clubes españoles de baloncesto y balonmano y les has aplicado una licencia GFDL. He estado en el sitio de la ACB y en de la Asobal y no he visto nada que apoye tales licencias. ¿Me he perdido algo? --Ecemaml 12:04, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Ecemanl, esos logotipos son mios, son creados y modificados por mi. Y ademas si fuera el caso, que tipo de apoyo me tienen que dar la acb y asobal? Si no apoyan a los equipos, me van a apoyar a mi?

Si son creados por ti, entonces la mención a ACB y Asobal está fuera de lugar porque da toda la impresión de que simplemente los has copiado de allí. Incluso si los has creado tú, me da la impresión de que los equipos correspondientes mantienen sus copyright sobre dichos logotipos, por lo que la licencia que habría que incluir sería la de logotipo y no la GFDL (creo, pero eso es otro rollo). Saludos --Ecemaml 14:36, 2 December 2005 (UTC) PD: por favor, respóndeme en mi pagína, porque si no no sé si has respondido o no.

Pues eso, que quites las menciones a acb.com y asobal.es. Un saludo --Ecemaml 15:00, 2 December 2005 (UTC) PD: por cierto, lo de apoyo se refiere a argumentos que apoyen una determinada licencia, simplemente

Por cierto, ¿me explicas cómo es que las fotos de los equipos que has sacado de la web de asobal son GFDL? --Ecemaml 15:08, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] RCD Espanyol team squad

I've seen that you have removed the team squad implementation of mine, based on the related template. That template was decided, discussed and implemented under the WikiProject Football, and it should be the one and only to be used for representing team squad. So, I am reverting back the template. Ciao. --Angelo 03:44, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

We discussed about the issue, and decided not to implement both of EU passports and 2nd nationality. The talk is archived here. --Angelo 14:11, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

We hare trying to let all the articles be of higher quality, and lots of football team articles use this template. Yours is not a nice way to improve Wikipedia: if you don't like this template, you should just discuss your doubts on the related page. --Angelo 14:27, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image source

You've twice removed the "no source" tag from Image:BM Ciudad Real 2005-06.jpg. Please don't do this unless you are adding the source details. Just removing the tag without adding source details is just plain vandalism - please don't do it. If there's something you don't understand about the process, just ask.

[edit] National squad list

I notice that you have started tabularising the squad lists at 2006 African Cup of Nations (squads). I would urge you to instead use the templates {{nat fs start}}, {{nat fs player}} and {{nat fs end}} instead, which are in turn based on the likes of {{fs player}} &c.. They have already been applied at most of the European Championship squad lists (see eg 1984 European Football Championship (squads)) and World Cup sqaud lists (see eg Football World Cup 1990 (squads)), and will be applied to the ACN squad lists in the future as well. Thanks! --Pkchan 15:17, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your concurring reply on my talk page. My plan is to update all pages under Category:Football tournament squads (and its sub-categories) to adopt the new format, but haven't been able to done all of them yet, due to both time constraints and technical difficulties (some pages, and in particular Football World Cup 1994 (squads), are rather unhandy for massive replacement using regular expressions). It would be of immense value if you would help transforming any of them. The ACN squad lists, in my opinion, can be a good starting point. --Pkchan 15:52, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Pkchan, one question: respect to the clubs of the players in the 1994 World Cup; do i have to put her current club/retired or that club of that year? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Raymond Cruise (talk • contribs) . originally appeared on User talk:Pkchan#OK, i agree with You

It's been a common practice for all the squad lists to include the professional club which a player has been playing for as of the time of the tournament. The same practice should go for the 1994 World Cup one.

By the way, please reply from now on here on this page. I have watched this space and will be notified when you reply here. This will make the whole discussion more coherent and easy to trace for the onlookers. --Pkchan 17:58, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re: Copa de Rey de Balonmano

Hello. May I ask why this page was blanked ? I assumed it was the missing 'L' in the title. I've reverted the blanking and moved it to Copa del Rey de Balonmano, preserving the edit history with you as the first author. If you really want this article deleted, please let me know and I'll delete it, or you can tag the article with {{db|author's request}} to get another admin to do it. Thanks. -- PFHLai 16:42, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

OK, delete this page please:Copa de Rey de Balonmano.

[edit] Rugby league

Thank you for recently editing the Rugby league article. You added a wikilink to Rugby in Spain I believe. However, this is somewhat irrelevant for this article. This "Rugby league" article refers to the sport of rugby league. It does not refer to a rugby league, such as the guineess premiership. This is confusing, I agree. Reading History of rugby league will probably fill in quite a few gaps. Another good reference is Rugby, which will fill you in on both sports of rugby. POds 08:53, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your cats

Please stop adding parent cats into articles. Some of the edits you've been doing add, for example, "Hispanic American actors" to an article that is already in "Mexican American actors". That category IS in "Hispanic American actors" so it's wholly redundant. However, many of your other edits are fine. Thanks for editing! --Golbez 18:06, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

If the person is ONLY in "Hispanic American actors", then it's fine, if we have no specific origin.

But if they are already in "Mexican American actors" then please don't put them in "Hispanic American actors", because that's already handled under "Mexican American actors". --Golbez 18:51, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Parent categories (part II)

Hi there Raymond. I have a similar request to the one above- I've noticed that you've been re-adding the parent category Cat:Municipalities in Spain to a few articles on individual Spanish municipalities (such as at Paterna de Rivera), when they had already been assigned to an appropriate sub-category (based on Province), such as Cat:Municipalities in Huelva. Since there are obviously (and literally) thousands of municipalities in Spain, placing the article at that category level is not really going to be so useful. A fair amount of effort has been expended recently in moving articles from the parent Cat:Municipalities in Spain cat into the appropriate subcategory based on province. If the article is already in a category based on province, it would seem to be entirely redundant to also have it at the parent Spain category. Is there a particular reason why you'd like to see these articles at the municipalities in Spain level? If not, I would say that the articles need to remain at the municipality in <province> level only. Regards, --cjllw | TALK 05:03, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kalina of Bulgaria

Hi,

I saw that added Kalina of Bulgaria as Monarchy in Spain and Nobility in Spain. Is that right? I mean she is of the Royal family in Bulgaria. I know that she was born in Spain and married Spainard Antonio "Kitín" Muñoz Valcárcel. But as far as I know is not part of the Monarchy in Spain, so is she? Since you are Spanish, I thought I'd double check with you rather than change it back.--SVTCobra 22:14, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Saludos. You have embarked upon a reorganisation of Argentine national groups which is complicated and contentious. I have started a discussion at Category talk:Basque Argentines where I first came across your edits, and I've flagged it up with other editors interested in Argentina. Please add your views there. Mtiedemann 19:07, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] emigrants

I notice you have been adding and re-adding 'American emigrants' categories to various '(country) Americans' categories. By defintion, American 'emigrants' are people who have left America to live in some other country. They do not belong in any '(country) Americans' category, which are defined as people who have emigrated from another (country) to become immigrants to the U.S. What is your justification for making these changes? Thanks Hmains 15:56, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sobre el vandalismo

Aun que no lo sepas, si has cometido vandalismo con algunas categorias. Por ejemplo; Category:Spanish Mexicans Category:Spanish-Argentines etc. ya estaban correctas, no tenias que cambiar nada. Un Spanish-Mexican, osea un español-mexicano es una persona Mexicana de origen espanol, y no vice versa. -- Lancini87 02:06, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

Thank you for experimenting with the page UD Las Palmas on Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Budgiekiller 17:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] American people by ethnic and national origin

What do think about what one editor is doing to this category: including both the subcategories and their sub-subcategories in this category. Example: including both the 'European American' subcategory and then also directly including all the sub-categories (German American, English American, etc etc). I think what is being done does not meet the criteria for having category/subcategory duplication. I do not remember seeing this done in any other category. He is effectiively reverting all my work that tried to organize the 'american people by ethnic and national origin' category to make it easier to find things. Thanks Hmains 04:12, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category changes

You are making large and controversial changes to categories without discussing them first. As you can see from other comments left for you, these are upsetting other editors who have been working to organise those subject areas. Most recently, you have been reorganising the Basque categories. These have been developed to be a generic category embracing Basque culture in France, Euskadi and Navarra, where appropriate, so any changes must leave that hierarchy intact, or improve it. There are already categories for Navarre and Euskadi which are subcats of the overall Basque category - you made it a parent category, which makes no sense of the hierarchy and does not reflect the fact that Navarrese and French Basque articles are included.

Could you please consider if you are the best person to be taking on such large reorganisation of category systems, rather than continuing to contribute through article creation? If you still want to make large changes to categories, perhaps you would consider discussing them first so that editors in those areas, such as myself in areas of Argentine and Basque interest, can give you our opinions? Thanks, Mtiedemann 19:49, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

I subscrive this opinion by Mtiedemann. Are this changes in Basque and Catalan categories politically neutral? Besides it, I welcome your excellent editions in the Catalonia article. I hope you keep working like this! --Joan sense nick 14:43, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sevilla squad changes

Hi, I see you keep reverting the squad changes back to the no-links, bold "to" and "from" - version. As I've written in a few edit resumés, please see the Talk:Sevilla FC page as to the squad changes and lets have a debate on the subject there instead of tacit reverting. Poulsen 18:25, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Portillo

We seem to have an issue on this. Portillo is not Spanish, although his father was. The category 'Spanish-British' carries no definition (and is therefore, (amongst other reasons), presently up for deletion). It would imply to the casual reader that the person thus categorised had dual nationality. Portillo doesn't. Therefore the category should not be used for him. Best regards --Smerus 14:59, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

You wrote: 'You dont know one thing: this cat: category:Spanish-British people means: Spanish for his origin or ancestry; and british for his nationality. You dont understand it. Thus it is. You are the vandal. Rayse 17:09, 20 May 2006 (UTC)'.

You are incorrect. Category:Spanish-British people contains no such definition. In fact it contains no definition at all. I suggest you take a moment to look once more at what a category is supposed to be in Wikipedia. In the meantime, you might also take a look at the rules on politnesess in Wikipedia. Because I disagree with you does not give you the right to call me a vandal. Best regards--Smerus 16:33, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Dear Rayse - you wrote:

Yes yes,,jajaja.

Look you the wikipedia rules

Portillo is of spanish origin or ancestry.

Therefore, this cat: category:Spanish-British people is absolutely corret, YOU DONT TOUCH IT. Rayse 18:38, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Please understand, with respect, that it is not for you to tell me what or what not I may touch. You have to accept as a basic principle of Wikipedia that not everyone out here agrees with you automatically, nor can you instruct them to do so. Any more of this rudeness and I shall report you to administrators.--Smerus 16:43, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] descent categories

Please add a purpose/use to all the 'descent' categories you are creating. I undestand what you are doing, but a purpose will help others now and later to understand. Thanks Hmains 17:56, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:People by ethnic or national descent

instead of vandalising the page by removing the cfd tag, vote on Wikipedia:Categories for deletion to help save it! Mayumashu 01:30, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

consider this an administrator warning not to remove cfd tags out of process as you did on Category:Argentine immigrants to Canada. Not only did you remove the cfd out of process, but you also de-categorized the category from its parents. Further disruption to XfD processes could lead to you being blocked from editing the encyclopedia. Syrthiss 12:50, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Change to Cornelia Rau

No comment or edit summary about your change to the article? Can you please discuss your actions on the talk page for Cornelia Rau or, better yet, here: Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board#Immigrant categories (because I really want to know what's going on with these immigrant/emigrant categories). Thank you. — Donama

[edit] Category:Brazilian Spaniards Category:Spanish-Brazilians

Spanish Brazilians are people who were born in Brazil, of Spanish descent; or people who came from Spain to Brazil to live and work. Brazilian Spaniards are people who were born in Spain, of Brazilian descent; or people who came from Brazil to Spain to live and work. This is a list of articles about such people. Matt86hk talk 13:33, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Denilson, Roberto Carlos, Ronaldo.... etc were born in Brazil of spanish descent,the ancestry in second place, never in first place, therefore are spanish-brazilians.

Greetings. Raymond Cruise 14:05, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Roberto Carlos and Denilson granted for Spanish passport because they lived in Spain for years. The other are unconfirmed. If they both came from Brazil and have Spanish descent. They should in both Category. Matt86hk talk 14:12, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Daniel and Julio Cesar applied for Spain passport in Seville, which wait much short than the capital. So Both consider to add in Category:Brazilian Spaniards, which Commonly known they get Spain passport by live for years. I don't think norminal people will known descent of Brazilian, unless by DNA test and find their gradfa is a Spanish or not. Just like American, but American is easier beacuse they keep their culture, and married same ethnic. BUT Brazilian is not. Matt86hk talk 15:03, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

You dont convince me.

Go to the next category Category:Italian-Brazilians, some are demonstrated that they are Italian?

Equal. Greetings.

Raymond Cruise 15:11, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Argentine, Uruguayan and Brazilian got Itlain passport immediately if they really are Itlain descent. It is difficult to use fake doc. Veron, Dida, Cafu, Recoba were fined.

ALBERT CELADES was born in Andorra but have Spain passport too.

Useless you go to your nearest council to check the application policy, it is difficult to tell they got passport by Spanish descent and/or they notable, lived in Spain for years.

Matt86hk talk 15:35, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Rüştü Reçber got Spanish passport too, but he have Spanish descent? NO!

Go to check Donato have Spansih descent or not.

Matt86hk talk 00:12, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I just know one expection, Mark González, because he got Spanish passport less than 2 years. Matt86hk talk 00:40, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Another exception. Diego Forlán. People with Spanish descent got passport much faster. Matt86hk talk 00:51, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] International Squad Templates

Just said I would tell you about this. A trend has started on wikipedia lately of doing each country's world cup squad going back for years. This is turning into a bit of a problem as certain players have played in numerous world cups. Just look at Paolo Maldini

My solution is redoing these international templates with a "Hide" features. I've done a very basic job on one of them below.

I'm not as yet able to add the country's flags or increase the size of the writing. I'm not able to change the colour of "Hide" either. Just wondering if you want to have a go at improving it so it can be used in articles ?

If you want to contribute please post your replies at the discussion section at Template:World Cup Squads as there could be a number of people contributing to this.

Thanks

(No adding content, but helping with the structure or the templates) And you looked perfect for that. :) Thats why I asked, but if you don't want to, or don't have the time, it is for sure no problem. But maybe you know somebody to help us?! André Kahle

[edit] La Liga Results

Hi Raymond. I see you're putting up the results on a week by week basis for La Liga. Just saying that for Serie A, we're using a results box, as is being used for the Premier League.

Just thought it might be useful to also add the box to the La Liga 06/07 page to see results easier.

If you want to use it, I've put a blank copy of it on my home page.

Please not that the grid doesn't show up on my homepage, but will show up on the pages it is used on.

Thanks.

You need to stop you are destrying page histories if you need to move pages to a page that alleady exist I can help you do that correctly but the copy-paste that you are doing is wrong please stop. If you contine destorying page histories I will have to block. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 17:01, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I am blocked. Betacommand, unblock me please, I will not return to vandalise.

Why did you continue to redirect pages and copy/paste them? Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 20:13, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I dont know, these teams name are wrong, i am from spain ,i know it, I come collaborating in wikipedia from 2004. Please. is the first time that happens to me.

If you need to move pages there is a move tab at the top of the page. And if the target page exist let an administrator know so that we can delete the page that you are trying to move to. If you notice when you copy pasted the pages you took the credit from other wikipedians who wrote it and copy/pasted it as your own. To prevent this in the future please use the Move tab, or ask me or another admin. we are glad to help. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 20:26, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

But, why I am blocked?? Can you unblocked? please please...!!

the reason that you were blocked was because you were improperly attempting to move/redirect pages. yes I can unblock but I want to make sure you understand why you were blocked in the first place to that it does not happen again. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 20:39, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Please!! but, what I do then? i was in other projects,, i have to update these projects,, you understand it? please.. I have requested you pardon, unblocked me already!, I promise to you that I will not destroy more the names of the teams.. please.

I am just trying to make sure you understand the reason that you were blocked. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 21:03, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Still I am blocked,, when I am unblocked?,,, please,, unblocked already,,, please please,my God!!!

Betacommand, i am repentanced, I ask pardon all the people

Betacommand, i show that i understand i did

you say you understand what you did, but before you are unblocked please in your own words explain what you did and why you should not have done it. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 21:57, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

I did It because I thought that the names of the teams that I put were the correct ones, but if they not are , I request pardon. but if your you do not want to unblock to me, does not pass nothing., I have already said the causes to you, if you do not unblock to me I go away.

I do not know if those are the proper pages or not. That is not why you were blocked. The reason that you were blocked was because of the fact that in attempting to change the page names you destroyed the page histories. and when I kindly pointed this out and asked you to stop you didn't. I then gave you a final warning and asked you to stop a second time, yet again you refused. That is why I had to block you. Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 22:38, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Act josh childress.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Act josh childress.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 {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, 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.

[edit] Divisiones Regionales de España

I have been trying to research each of the Regional football leagues and I know my search will not be complete (Galicia, Ceuta and Melilla football seem like dead-ends.) I wanted to write about Madrileño football, but I found that their teams were part of Federación Castellana and I wasn't able to find much about it. Anyway, I wanted to branch each region from your post. The Catalunya region was started already, so I wanted to do the same for the others. Raul17 10:21, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Under-23 players

Why are you removing the U-23 tags? Every team in the Segunda División B and the Tercera División must have six players aged under twenty-three years of age. my info is from 2006-2007Extra 2ªB y 3ª División published by Don Balon magazine page 9. Raul17 21:05, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] &nbsp;

Hi. Please don't forget to use &nbsp; instead of displayed spaces on the football squad templates. (See here.) I've noticed a few that you've missed. Laters!  sʟυмɢυм • т • c  16:08, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sierra Nevada ski resort

Hi, Raymond. Regarding your change in the Spanish ski resorts template, it´s fine IF you intend to create the page about the Sierra Nevada Ski Resort. Otherwise you are substituting a good link by a red one... is that ok? Until you create the correct article, I´d suggest to keep the link, specially taking into account that you didn´t remove the template from the Sierra Nevada article. Let´s be coherent and organized in our edits, OK? David 11:28, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

• Ooops... in fact I see you moved all the resorts to ... Ski Resort! why??? that does not make sense at all!! see Courchevel or Tignes. See the Spanish version of the resorts... WHY? I see you are fond of unagreed massive changes. My fear is that the changes do not comply with Wikipedia standards. We don´t have articles about "Madrid city". What you did is in fact correct for Sierra Nevada because there is a mountain range and a ski resort of the same name... but... Alto Campoo??? there is nothing else called Alto Campoo except the ski resort. WHY Alto Campoo Ski Resort??? OMG! David 11:37, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

• The pages have been corrected, yes, I know how to do it. I didn´t spit on anybody, there is nothing offensive in the previous remarks. And we are suposed to talk in English here. Should I have to report THIS? David 14:41, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Beni Arashiro: Spanish Japanese...

Beni Arashiro may have some Spanish descent, but it is not confirmed. If you have a reliable source stating that she is in fact Spanish and Japanese then please post it. Until then I will continue to remove the Spanish-Japanese category from her wiki. I've actually asked her before, and she says that she is Okinawan, White, and part Native American. From the looks of it she even appears to be Spanish, but there is still no source claiming this (everywhere else just says Japanese(Okinawan) and American) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Odyism (talk • contribs) 07:22, 11 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Category

I've notice that you've shifted Category:Political parties in Land of Valencia. Please note that such moves needs to be discussed at WP:CFD. There has been discussions previously whether the use the term 'Land of Valencia' or 'Valencian community', and thus such a move is not without political implications. --Soman 16:59, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't really have a problem with it, but for the sake of formality category moves should be brough up for discussion at WP:CFD. --Soman 17:06, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PAGE MOVES (i.e. Region de Murcia)

Please be more careful in future and do not copy and paste articles as this is not OK as the edit history gets lost. If you need to have an article moved, please ask at WP:RM. You have been warned about this in the past. If the page move is not controversial, any admin would be happy to help you straight away. Thanks, Asterion^talk 00:07, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
