Categories in user space

Hi. I notice that you are working on an article in your user page. Be careful not to include article categories in this article until it is actually moved to article space. Otherwise the category list will include your user page. Instead, you can enclose the category tags in comments, like this: . That way, they are visible when you're editing your page, but they do not actually place your user page in the article list. Thanks, ... discospinster _talk 17:40, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Social gravity

A tag has been placed on Social gravity requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Argentina info

Thank you for your recent posting of information regarding Argentine doctorates; however, the English does not make sense. I corrected some but moved some to the talk page. Would you either make it more English-intelligible or post it in Spanish (or Castilian). I speak Spanish and could probably help with the translation. Thanks! --Eustress (talk) 01:56, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Juan Bautista Bailoretto

A tag has been placed on Juan Bautista Bailoretto requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

Falklands War

Will you please stop changing the name of the Falklands War on Falklands articles. This is the English wikipedia and convention is that the English name should be used. The Spanish name is included in the articles, which is more that adequate for the purposes of NPOV. I realise that this is an emotive subject for the Argentines but your actions will only promote conflict. Please stop. Justin talk 19:34, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think you'll find that the whenever the war is referenced you will also find a note regarding the Spanish name. If you go further, you'll find that I did it. Please have the courtesy to observe the conventions of the English wikipedia. Your actions will only spark an edit war. Justin talk 19:51, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming pages

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently copied the contents of a page and pasted it into another with a different name. Specifically, you copied the contents of Universidad Nacional del Sur and pasted it into National University of the South. This is what we call a "cut and paste move", and it is very undesirable because it splits the article's history, which is needed for attribution and is helpful in many other ways. The mechanism we use for renaming an article is to move it to a new name which both preserves the page's history and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. If there is an article that you cannot move yourself by this process, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves to request the move by another. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Speedy deletion of National University of February the Third

A tag has been placed on National University of February the Third, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

A7 - Does not specify importantce or notiablility

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page 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.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Dudleybus^{please talkwith the UK Transport Wiki} 08:09, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Important info about moving articles

First, welcome to Wikipedia! I see you've jumped right in with some your contributions relating to Argentina and its education system. Here are some resources you may find useful when editing Wikipedia:

Now, on to my (hopefully not too painful) complaining bit:

You've made a (pretty common) mistake regarding page moves. I noticed that you recently copied and pasted the contents of several articles to alternate page names. You should know that the best way to move (i.e. rename) an article is to use the "move" tab which is found at the top of every page. This allows the system to maintain an accurate record of the page's edit history. (See the "history" tab.)

A problem which you will now encounter is that one needs administrator privileges to move an article to another title which has already been created. Now that the pages where you wish to see the articles have been created, you will need to make a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves so that an administrator can perform them.

Before you do that, though, you should probably announce your plans at a public location such as Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Universities or WikiProject Argentina. Making such a large-scale change on your own may lead to ill-will from others who deal with this topic, and it might also be against some relevant Wikipedia conventions regarding names and language. Likely, there are people at these WikiProjects who know the relevant rules, and also administrators who can handle the page moves, if they are agreed on (and there will be no need to use the "requests" page.) You may also find these (or other) WikiProjects to be useful forums for working on your particular areas of interest, so have a look.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome! --Eliyak T·C 11:41, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - a stub template or category which you created has been nominated for deletion or renaming at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. The stub type, which was not proposed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, does not meet the standard requirements for a stub type, either through being incorrectly named, ambiguously scoped, or through failure to meet standards relating to the current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Wikipedia:Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type, and in future, please consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 00:34, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Argentinean university

Hi Carau,

I don't understand what the meaning of this redlinked category is. Whatever it's meaning, it doesn't belong on a stub template. Please refrain from readding it to {{Argentina-university-stub}}.--Thomas.macmillan (talk) 23:15, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits to {{Arg-National University-stub}} directly oppose those which were agreed to via an official process page. Please refrain from making any more such edits, as they constitute vandalism. Please stop, as such edits may see you blocked from editing Wikipedia. Grutness...wha? 01:08, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again Carau - sorry to have given such an "official warning" last time, but the debate at WP:SFD which you took part in did result in an official decision to delete the stub type. As to proposing a stub type just for Argentinian National Universities later, it's unlikely to be supported - for stubbing, universities are usually split by country and then by region within a country (so if there were a large number of stubs for universities in Argentina, it might be split into six types, one for each region, for example GranChaco-university-stub). The only case where types of university are split out is when they teach specific subjects, like with seminary-stub. The rerason is that it is likely that editors who know about Argentina's universities in general are more likely overall to know about ones in a particular area (possibly where they live) rather univertsities across the whole country run by one organisation. In any case, there aren't likely to be enough stubs on Argentinian universities to need to split an Argentina-university-stub into subtypes. It's fine for a standard navigation category to be made for these universities - that would nopt require any proposal and would probably be a good idea - but stub categories work in a slightly different way because they are for a different purpose (standard categories are indended mainly for readers to find other related articles to get more information from - stub categories are designed mainly for editors looking to exapnd articles). Grutness...wha? 22:54, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, that's fine. In most cases it's usual to split stubs into separate country categories once there are enough of them. Grutness...wha? 01:06, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry Carau, I am afraid I agree with the deletion. I apologize. I hope we can find another place to collaborate in the future.

Sebastian Kessel ^Talk 16:20, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Argentish

I'm afraid I agree with the deletion, and I would further advise you not to take it personally, avoid blaming it on "authoritarianism" and least of all invoke the disappeared in reference to what was done to the article you created. It doesn't help your cause, and as a comparison it's completely tactless.

Wikipedia does not exist to promote new truths or discoveries or personal anecdotes that may point to new developments in society; it exists to report on things already known and well-documented. You're free to request a deletion review, but based on my experience, it just won't fly. —Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 20:50, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Argentine English

Hi Carau, thanks for your message. Nice research you have done. I think you should merge the contents of the late article with Spanglish or Argentine American entries in Wikipedia. Best regards, Mxcatania (talk) 02:37, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Argentish

I was very sorry to read your message at the deletion request page. First of all, I would like you to understand that, just like you, I'm trying to do what I think is best for Wikipedia. I do understand that you believe in what you wrote, but I'm affraid we are not understanding ourselves.

I believe you are mixing things when you say words like Peronism belong to a special sort of English language; it just doesn't, as the word Argentine is also not part of a dialect but a plain normal English demonym.

On the other hand, words like futbolista, basquetbolista, or even rugbier are again not part of an English/Argentine dialect, but they acually Spanished words with root-words taken or borrowed from English (football, basketball, rugby).

For this hipotetical Argentine English actually to exists, a [considerable] number of people should speak this it among themselves as a common language, what again is not the case. it is, simply put, a collection of common mistakes of Argentine people speaking English.

I trully hope you can understand this, and you can move on to contribute to a great number of Argentina-related articles that need help.

Have a nice day, Mariano(t/c) 11:51, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cut and paste moves

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting it into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Toon05 (talk • contribs) 19:06, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of List of fields of doctoral studies in Argentina

The article List of fields of doctoral studies in Argentina has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I do not feel that this subject is notable enough to warrant an article in Wikipedia

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Don't recreate deleted pages

Your reposting of a deleted page here has been reverted. As you are well aware, there has been ample time for you to make your case at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fields of doctoral studies in Argentina, which even has been relisted once to allow proponents of this page to make their case. The last argument you made before the time was up was posting an unspecific external link, which was, as someone said, clearly a wild goose chase. This is not acceptable behavior. — Sebastian 08:40, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, my last edition were Based on a truthfull List Of doctorates on an official site. I Want to recreate its just not fair I was working MEanwhile you suddenly deleted the page! Carau

Different that you I'm a really working man I work for live in a developing country only I can enjoy wikiedintigs on weekend.. very well acceptable behavior. Carau

I understand that it is a stressful experience when something one has been working on gets deleted. But we're a collaborative effort here; we have certain rules and procedures, and you can't just run amok when someone follows them. It doesn't help if you just revert the closure. Read the text of the template that I put on the AfD page; it tells you what you can do instead.

Do you really think you can win anyone's sympathy by repeatedly reverting them, and even deleting their posts on their own talk page? If you insist on having things your way then there is no future for you as an editor here. I could easily block you, if I wanted to. But I don't enjoy that; I still have some hope that, once you sleep over this, you can calm down. I therefore will not revert you, but instead I will give you a chance to undo your recent reverts and deletions of posts yourself. That would be a sign that you are willing to cooperate with other editors here in a respectful and constructive way. — Sebastian 09:30, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can I also add that it is a waste of time adding content to a AfD page after the discussion has been closed - firstly, it will be removed anyway; secondly, it is too late after a decision has been made! -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 15:23, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Carau's last version of the article was taken from the headlines at http://www.me.gov.ar/spu/documentos/publicaciones/posgra99.pdf, pp 19ff. Does that address your concerns raised at that AfD discussion, Phantomsteve? — Sebastian 18:29, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I have a slight disadvantage in that I can't read Spanish! However, this appears to be a similar list to the kind of thing we see referenced at the American version. However, I would like to be able to see at least 3 years' worth of these reports to show that there is consistency. This shows that in the latest edition of "Guide Career Grade. Universities (National and Private) and University Institutes (National and Private) - 1998", published by the Ministry", these were the fields available. If it can be shown that these are a constant list of these fields (i.e. more than just that years' - with a similar list from a couple more years), then I feel that this would indeed address my concerns. I should just add that the notes for readers appears to say "The first chapter gives a presentation by field of study, Disciplines and Areas of Study, which was done solely for reasons of ordering information, as a postgraduate course could located in several areas and disciplines simultaneously." - I'm not sure if this means that the list is an official one, or not. -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 19:58, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like to remind you not to attack other editors, as you did on User talk:Pmt7ar. Please comment on the contributions and not the contributors. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Justin A Kuntz, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. [[2]] Gerardw (talk) 11:35, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That wasn't an attack, was a constructive opinion. Carau (talk)

Speedy deletion nomination of Liminar Manifesto

A tag has been placed on Liminar Manifesto requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fields of doctoral studies in the United States

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of fields of doctoral studies in the United States, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Wikimedia Stories Project

Aloha!

My name is Victor and I work with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. We're chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade new people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I find stories that drive our annual fundraising efforts. It's important to convey the incredible diversity of people who've come to rely upon Wikipedia every day.

I'd really like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia.

I will be in Buenos Aires from the 10th - 11th of March 2012.

I'm hoping you will elaborate on your story with me. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project!

Thank you,

Victor Grigas

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Proposed deletion of Social gravity

The article Social gravity has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:OR in its most simple and pure pathetic form

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Latin American 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Latin America/The 10,000 Challenge ‎ has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Argentina etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Latin American content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon. If you would like to see this happening for Latin America, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Latin America, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!♦ --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 00:29, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
