On another discussion page you wrote...
Greetings. If you check the source of the IP address, 167.24.24.150, who's edits you reverted on USAA, it resolves to USAA itself. So they might need to be warned about {{COI}}. Cheers! --Nsaum75 (talk) 23:20, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Nsaum, I didn't do the revert but do have a reply to your COI remark: 1. Being from a company and editing the blog entry are not necessarily a COI 2. There are up to 2 thousand contractors in the USAA building, so a USAA IP address does not equal to an employee

The changes from SSA to SA are correct, maybe not verifyable, but correct. Time will prove this to be true.
I understand that wikipedia has prioritized authentication over correctness/fact. All wikipedia readers and editors should be aware of this necessary flaw in wikipedia.

Nsaum - you are funny. oh my - is that too critical... it is okay to be critical of all editors at wikipedia including you - in fact it is even desireable. calling an edit stupid is far from violating law, ethics, or even civility. hiding behind wikipedia is small of you. if you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. don't be stupid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.152.104.158 (talk) 15:57, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Hola!
Nice to see another Mexiphile. Im in Mexico City but Oaxaca is my favorite state to visit. I just extended Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca and realized Ive been away from the Oaxaca coast for too long.Thelmadatter (talk) 23:10, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
- I see what you mean about the panoramic photo. The photo is "chingona" :D but it seems a bit out of place. However, an alternative doesnt leap out at me. So we should just leave it as it puts all the other photos to shame. Bad thing about hidden paradises is that they dont stay hidden forever. Lucky for us that Mexico has enough hidden paradises to last during our lifetimes. I really like Zihuatanejo and Troncones beaches too. Havent checked out Michoacan beaches yet, just Morelia and Pátzcuaro (I worked on the Pátzcuaro article). Where abouts in Oaxaca do you live when you are there?Thelmadatter (talk) 13:59, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
- Love Oaxaca city. Last time I was there was about 6 months ago or so, and was relieved to see that the 2006 shenanigans didnt completely destroy the place :( We are starting to plan for the Xmas break to the Oaxaca shore. On thing on the itinerary is Mazunte as the BF is a turtle fan. Heading to San Andres Mixquic today (in the Distrito Federal but barely) cuz they supposedly have really cool Day of the Dead celebrations. Gotta skip work early. :DThelmadatter (talk) 14:15, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
Galveston photo request: GISD administration building
When you get the chance, would you mind photographing the Galveston Independent School District's administration building? Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 21:26, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Vandal
Keep an eye on the guy who continues to blank Pakistan from regional powers. He's been doing this for a couple of weeks now calling it "biased" and "unethical editing". Do you think page protection might work? Thanks. Nirvana888 (talk) 14:00, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- I have been watching it lately, and noticed the ongoing resistance to inclusion of Pakistan. I doubt it would qualify for protection it since the content dispute only involves one specific nation and one or two editors sockpuppeting/meatpuppeting; however it might be timeworthy to file a CU request as part of a SPI, as obviously this crafty sock has learned tricks to try to avoid standard SPI checks. --Nsaum75 (talk)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on History of the Jews in Latin America. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. WuhWuzDat 00:27, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

FYI: GBA
I don't know if you still have an interest but there has been more discussion in the forums on Galveston Bay Area. Please feel free to weigh in before these topics are closed. Specific sub-topics that I am intending to close soon:
- Talk:Galveston Bay Area#What should be included in the boundary
- Talk:Galveston Bay Area#Houston vs. Clear Lake
- Talk:Galveston Bay Area#How to describe demographics
Thanks.
--Mcorazao (talk) 18:44, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up; It looks like the Houston/Clear Lake City debate was closed before I got there. I'll look at the other ones and make comments when I get a chance.
- Cheers! --nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 09:36, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
- The Houston vs. Clear Lake debate is not closed. The infobox debate is (there is some overlap but I separated the two because the Infobox is such a special piece of info).

AIV?
In case you didn't notice (I reverted it instantly), you may want to report this guy to AIV. --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 16:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks!, I hadn't noticed it. --nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 03:26, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- No problem. I should probably point out though that, in my opinion, having the warning may be asking for trouble. For instance, I never would have known you were a Jew without that there. I'm sure you're already aware of this, but I am curious. --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 03:28, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I thought about that. However, my userpage states it as well -- I added the AIV notice on the Talk page, in some sort of futile attempt to at least notify the vandals that I would report them. Such is life, I guess...one can believe that antisemitism is a thing of the past, until you log onto Wikipedia ;-) ...Although, I seem to attract most of my "fans" by reverting vandalism they have caused on other articles. --nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 03:34, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Welcome
Thanks for the welcome. To be honest, I don't see the point in making an account because I never end up staying and editing for a consistent amount of time. The amount of anti-Israel bias and often even anti-Semitism propagated by the nature of Wikipedia (allowing anyone to edit freely) is far too frustrating. When I see something that really bugs me I go ahead and fix it, but deep down I know it won't last long before some vandal comes and ruins it. Anyway, thanks for your post. 99.253.230.182 (talk) 05:45, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
A thought
A thought occurred to me and I was wondering if anybody might think it is a good idea.
An inherent issue with Wikipedia:WikiProject Houston is that by its nature there is an inherent bias toward the city of Houston itself. The thing that keeps occurring to me is that Galveston as well as many very important topics to do with the bay tend to get overshadowed because of their distance from Houston, and the fact that many of these topics are so distinct from Houston. So it makes me wonder if creating a Wikipedia:WikiProject Galveston Bay or Wikipedia:WikiProject Galveston / Bay Area or some such thing to attract more attention to these topics wouldn't be a useful idea. The scope would basically be anything to do with things that lie near the bay but excluding topics that are more core to the city of Houston (mind you there would be some overlap obviously).
Anyway, just wondering ...
--Mcorazao (talk) 17:53, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- I disagee with another regional WP. WPHouston covers the Greater Houston area. There would be too much overlap and a never, never ending discussion of who owns what article. Bias? Remember, we just finished bringing Galveston, Texas to the GA list, something that Nsaum and myself have been slowly working on since last fall. Personally, I feel all this "bias" crap started with the creation of the GBA article. Postoak (talk) 22:58, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- Wow, I guess I touched a nerve. --Mcorazao (talk) 23:19, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
- I have to agree with Postoak on this one, WikiProject Houston is sufficient. The GBA is so intertwined with Houston, plus the fact that it is a loosely defined area, would probably work against it and lead to countless discussions & disagreements over what does and does not belong. Either way, the localized overlap would be such, that it probably would just add another layer of confusion to article sorting. --nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 00:33, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- I didn't suggest a suggest a Wikiproject on the GBA. --Mcorazao (talk) 04:09, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- Huh?? hmmmm... Ok, I'm confused now....I thought thats what you were asking about in your first message... --nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 09:50, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
- No, I suggested that there are a lot of topics related to Galveston Bay and surrounding areas that are really very interesting to discuss. Certainly there is a lot of Galveston's history that is very key to Texas' history that IMHO merits additional articles (e.g. Free State of Galveston, Sam Maceo, and Norris Wright Cuney are important topics in Texas history and yet I was surprised to find that there was no coverage on them; no criticism implied to anyone; just making an observation). Certainly the recent history of Galveston is not extremely interesting or significant in Texas but the pre-1950s history, especially pre-1900, actually merits more depth of coverage (IMHO). Similarly there is a lot of interesting history for other areas around the bay. And apart from history, the bay and the wetlands around it are extremely significant to the state and the nation (ecologically, economically, etc., etc.). And I could go on.
- I'm simply suggesting that there is a lot of potential content in that geographic area that seems worth broadening coverage on in Wikipedia, if there are interested editors. Granted this does not mean that a new project is necessary but, as I say, since Houston is more of an inland city, and distant (literally and figuratively) from a lot of these areas, there is simply a tendency to forget that they are more than just outlying areas of Houston (e.g. the fact that Sugar Land and Galveston have roughly the same population does not mean that they necessarily merit the same coverage). --Mcorazao (talk) 00:08, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- P.S. I don't really understand the "overlap" arguments. E.g. WikiProject Texas overlaps with Houston and a lot of others. Whether or not projects overlap seems to me beside the point. The only question is whether a new WikiProject would help bring focus to an area that merits deeper coverage. If the answer is "no" then obviously it is a bad idea. --Mcorazao (talk) 00:08, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- P.P.S. It is clear that it'll start a war to pursue this suggestion any further. I am only providing the above explanation since you asked. But regardless of the merits of the suggestion there is certainly not enough merit to be worth more of the ugliness I've had to endure. :-( --Mcorazao (talk) 00:21, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- Ouch, I didn't mean to insult you or cause "ugliness" in any way with my response. :( I think we can all disagree on some things and still get along. Simply speaking, most of the articles are already in WP:Houston, the local area WikiProject, and I am concerned that adding them to another local area WikiProject would just create more confusion and debate amongst editors -- in addition to previously stated duplication concerns.
- If anything, I think it might be worth-while to include more articles in the Galveston Bay Area category, as currently it is populated by mainly cities. Some editors might feel that it would be overcategorization and disruptive/duplicative to the category hierarchy; so in that respect, I would probably ask a local area Admin, like WhisperToMe, what his thoughts are on the situation.
- Here is something I think we could do easily -- You and I have been contributing to some of the same GBA articles on Spanish Wikipedia, perhaps we should take things a step further and translate existing Houston area articles into Spanish. Spanish Wiki is pretty much void of Texas related articles (in comparison to English wiki), yet with the growth of the internet in Latin America, it might be helpful to fill in some of those voids. I know here in Oaxaca, students are using English Wiki all the time because of lack of access to libraries & encyclopedias, and because Spanish Wiki lacks so much of the same content. --nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 02:23, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- By ugliness I wasn't referring to anything you have said here.
- In any event, yes, I've been ignoring the GBA category. To be honest because of the terrible battles, I start and stop a lot in terms of what I do in this arena in general because I always feel that I am wondering what will trigger another war. Many times I have thought about just abandoning that topic in general but I made the decision a while back that, on principle, I wasn't going to be chased away (I do, after all, believe in WP's goals).
- I don't mind helping out on the Spanish WP articles. Unfortunately my Spanish is very poor. So sadly it's not possible for me to do more than create C-quality articles. But certainly I don't mind helping where I can.

What you did inside the categories is alright, but why did you remove the Syrian categories from the articles? --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 14:42, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- My comment here [1] is not connected to this. Is the mountains and volcanoes built by the Israelis? The new categories I created is for the Israeli presence there, the other side is the international view, that the area falls within the borders of Syria, these mountains, volcanoes and the lake are inside the borders of Syria. The Israeli occupation there and the boundaries of Syria are overlapping each other. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 10:08, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Jews in Latin America article
Nsaum,
Just placing a general "citations needed" tag, while discriminately removing tags that would precisiely point other editors in the direction of where the citations are needed, does not help solve: they are -both- needed. The tags are serving the purpose they were created for, and they are back. Regards, TruthRevealed33 (talk) 19:42, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- Nsaum, actually, you are not correct in your especulation of my choices. I have made no such choices to single out. Simply put these are the only two countries where I can contribute any expertise in this regard. So, as you can see the problem is not that "none of the other countries have fact tags", but rather that someone is needed to properly fact-tag the other countries as well.
- I will point out, however, that in reviewing your last edit (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=History_of_the_Jews_in_Latin_America&diff=prev&oldid=323153623) you did choose to remove only -some- of my tags, more precisely you appear to have singled out just Mexico, leaving untouched the Puerto Rico tags I had also concurrently placed there together with Mexico's. Perhaphs you would care to clarify why you have discriminately chosen to zero in on Mexico alone.
And whereas you call a section tag more appropriate, on what wiki criteria or guideline are you basing that? You don't say. I have replaced the fact tags as they are more than appropriate to improve this article. Regards, TruthRevealed33 (talk) 07:12, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- I requested input from other editors at Wikiproject Judaism Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Judaism#History_of_the_Jews_in_Latin_America, and was hoping other editors would chime in with either sources or an opinion. However, further changes to the article were interrupted by racist attacks left by the now-blocked user User:Greenbayboy. Since you say you are familiar with these areas, perhaps you could find sources to help replace the tags you've put in. You also seem to have a lot of knowledge of Wikipedia policy for someone who only has 13 edits attributed to their account. Thanks --Nsaum75 (talk) 07:24, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
Galveston County photos
Thanks for the La Marque photos! If you want, why not get Bacliff, Texas and San Leon, Texas? The former is at a good article status, but it would benefit from a photo of the Bacliff school. San Leon has its own school too. WhisperToMe (talk) 11:54, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
That thread at SD's talk page
Hi, I was trying to pour cold water on AM's suggestion of a sockpuppet report. Hence my reference to a "fishing trip". Also my reference to stylistic features. AM's English is sufficiently poor that (s)he may not be able to grasp stylistic features that may clearer to native English speakers. In any case Nableezy's hypothesis looks a lot more believable than any of the three AM suggested.--Peter cohen (talk) 21:32, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
Ike Dike
The Ike Dike is going to be created because of Hurricane Ike, and Ike only. It has nothing to do with the Galveston hurricane of 1900. The Galveston seawall was created in response to the 1900 hurricane. Hurricane Ike created a 22 ft storm surge and if it had not been for Ike, this Ike Dike wouldn't have been thought of. So why would you even think that the Galveston hurricane of 1900 has anything to do with this? I'm confused! Hurricane Carla was an even more disastrous storm than the 1900 hurricane, certainly if you count the damage in dollars. Yes, the 1900 hurricane was deadlier, but that's because over 500,000 people evacuated during Carla and more than 1 million evacuated during Ike. So I see no reason why the Galveston hurricane of 1900 is mentioned as a "reason" for the Ike Dike in the Ike Dike article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.43.169.0 (talk) 01:08, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- If you used the edit summary stating why you were removing content, then perhaps your edits would not be undone. I think you will find that if you go around removing content without explaining why, a lot of your edits will be reverted. --nsaum75 ¡שיחת! 01:57, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
I also took out the sentence "Except for the 1900 hurricane, Carla was...." because Carla at peak intensity had stronger winds 175mph (1-min sustained), but Ike had was more intense (lower mbar), was considerably larger in size and had a more organized eye. So both Ike and Carla were leagues ahead of the 1900 hurricane in strength, intensity, and size and again I don't understand why you would edit it to say that Carla was the strongest except for the 1900 hurricane. I made that correction, then you put it back. Why? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.43.169.0 (talk) 02:23, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Boudin balls look a bit like falafel... are they made with corn meal? That would explain the appearance. Gotta try me gator boudin someday ja ja ja ja Thelmadatter (talk) 15:44, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
- Heh... sounds like a cholesterol and fat bomb... as are most of the good things in life! I havent worked on Mexican cuisine articles (working on a Mexican handcrafts and popular art article which is sadly lacking) but I have been taking photos of stuff my spouse and I eat on our adventures and putting them into Wikimedia, as well as adding information about food in my geography articles (like pastes in Pachuca). Agreed that there is so much more to Mexican food than "vitamina T" (tacos, tamales y tortas). I had no idea there was something more than Tex-Mex until I moved to Arizona umteen million years ago and discovered Sonoran (green chile and carne asada.. which I miss here in Mexico City) food. Never had a bad meal in Oaxaca yet! My favorite is the tasajo and other grilled stuff you can get at the 20 de noviembre market....mmmmmmmmmmmmmThelmadatter (talk) 14:23, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
- BTW, Im planning on heading down to the Oaxaca shore during the Dec holidays... working on dates now but spouse and son want to go to Mazunte to hopefully get a chance to release turtles? Any chance you'll be in state in the latter half of Dec?Thelmadatter (talk) 14:28, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for WP:NPA Warning
Thanks Nsaum75 for this. I added another one of my own.
I don’t wish to be part of the ongoing content debate, I just wish that that editor would follow the Wikipedia rules and guidelines, especially the ones about civility.
Thanks again! — SpikeToronto 19:38, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
