Dual Citizenship map

Hello, I noticed that you uploaded this map and that the information for Mexico is gray. According to this site, Mexico does allow dual citizenship but mexican citizens born in Mexico or to Mexican parents abroad are considered Mexican within Mexico and must carry proof of both citizenships. They also do not allow loosing of your citizenship, meaning you can't renounce it. I don't know under which category this would fall (yellow or red). Seems more like a red to me. Hope this help. -- PRueda29 / ^Ptalk29 / ^Pcontribs29 12:47, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I'd say that's red too, according to the document they allow something called dual nationality but not dual citizenship, and dual nationals cannot vote or stand for office. As I understand it Mexican citizens DO lose citizenship upon acquiring another (but retain nationality), so yeah, that's red. Thanks for telling me, hexagon1 13:04, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

The reason I got rid of the map is because a lot of the "facts" are wrong like Finland DOES allow dual nationality, since 2003 in the Nationality Act 2003 (See Finnish nationality law and [1]), however in Norway DOESN'T allow dual-nationality (see [2]), except for certain cases. Germany does allow dual nationality (See German nationality law) only to citizens under 23, after that they have to decide get which citizenship to have. 159753 11:16, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Interiot.js

I've made some modifications to User:Haza-w/Interiot.js, which you may wish to reflect in your monobook.js - the only main difference is that I've changed the appendChild function to an insertBefore, which means that it should work in all cases (now, it only works in some skins). If it works fine for you, then there should be no problem in keeping it as it is. haz _(user talk)^e 21:21, 10 March 2006

Thanks! I'll update mine soon. There should be a URL that has the most up-to-date script, and you should just be able to <script src=" .... "> it. (Nevermind, you can just action=raw, apparently.) +Hexagon1 (talk) 03:18, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Not really, I just did the generic revert&warn thing with him, I wasn't really involved with it. +Hexagon1 (talk) 02:44, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Interesting book

Can I ask what book you scanned the Japanese translation of the name "Alexander" from? Thanks -- Mwalcoff 03:24, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

New caction tool

I'm pleased to inform you that my caction tool v2 is now released. To update to the new version, replace the link to the old version in your monobook.js with

{{subst:js|User:Haza-w/cactions.js}}

The reason I can't simply replace the old version is that the new one doesn't quite work for admins, and I'm still waiting for assistance before I completely roll it out.

Tell me what you think of it. If there are any bugs, then let me know, including your browser version in the report. Thanks, and I hope you like the new version! haz _(user talk)^e 16:12, 17 March 2006

Oh, thanks for that. I corrected that bug when testing for a Special: page but forgot for user/user talk pages. I'll fix it. I fixed the "(comment)" parsing bug that you mentioned earlier. Thanks for all the feedback! (By the way, TantalumTelluride prompted me to make a new version which removes the "history", "move" and "watch"/"unwatch" tabs and replaces them as links under "page options" – hope you like it.) haz _(user talk)^e 09:29, 19 March 2006

I've remodelled the location scanner so that it replaces any %3As with colons before searching for strings such as User: and Special: which should fix the problem. I've also added a purge link to page options. haz (user talk)^e 10:32, 19 March 2006

Cactions bugfix

Hi Hexagon1. I think you reported the "whitespace" bug in the caction tool, whereby a large blank area was added at the end of every page. I'm glad to inform you that the bug has been fixed. If you find any more bugs, please report them. It may help to check the buglist at User:Haza-w/Caction tool. Thanks again. haz (user talk) 16:44, 20 March 2006

mexico

Yes, Mexico now allows dual citizenship with the US. I have several friends, either born in the US of Mexican parents, or born in Mexico, but who have lived in the US for a long time (legally, of course) who have recently acquired a second passport and are very excited at the prospect of feeling "whole" again now that they can claim two passports to match their dual identities. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eudaimonia (talk • contribs)

Sure. Here is an article dealing with the tumultuous situation: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=32119 . Mexico legalized dual citizenship in 1998, then, as the article states, the "window closed" some time thereafter. In 2003, Mexico changed its consistution to continue to process requests for dual citizenship permanently. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eudaimonia (talk • contribs)
