Hi! You blocked this IP address for 24 hours for blanking Ivy Queen. Unfortunately, this is one AOL's IP addresses, and we're supposed to keep blocks short on these addresses since a lot of people are behind each. I've unblocked it. Thanks! Demi T/ C 23:54, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
Oh, thank you Tony! I literally said "aww" when I saw what you posted there. I appreciate it!

PS: I'm sorry for not getting to the Europe trip. I'm working on telling you about it now!

Hi Tony,
You said that you wanted to be notified when I was up for another Request for Bureaucratship... well, I am now. It's at Wikipedia:Requests_for_bureaucratship/Linuxbeak_(2). Thanks! Alex Schenck (that's Linuxbeak to you) 14:06, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi, long time no talk. To tell you the truth I've been less than pleased with wiki as of late and that's one of the major reasons I haven't been on here much. I realize that as a public access encyclopedia anyone can write pretty much what they want but I think I'm too old to be getting into "edit wars" especially when the info in question is more than clear. These entries for actors Mario Cimarro ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Cimarro) and Cesar Evora ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%C3%A9sar_%C3%89vora) are prime examples. I have repeatedly explained to the person that they are both very much Cuban actors since they were born and raised in Cuba to Cuban parents but they refuse to acknowledge this fact. Instead they insist that now they are to be considered strictly Mexican actors since they are now residing in Mexico. This makes absolutely no sense. Mexican actor in the intro clearly refers to either a Mexican born person or a person who's heritage/parents are Mexican. It's beyond silly to change every bio's intros to reflect the current nationality of a person. What if JLo moves to China? Will we refer to her as a chinese actress? Or do we change the intros every time a person moves and becomes a national somewhere else? This makes no sense. They are both Cuban actors and the intros should state so. Then in the bio itself it should explain that they have relocated to Mexico and become Mexican citizens. But to flat out state they are Mexican actors is plain wrong. I'm too old for this. Wiki is supposed to educate people but blatant misinformation or trying to deceive people this way is just wrong. Regardless I thank you for being so nice while I've been here. I've enjoyed talking with you. Do take care! Mailyn 14:51, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
About this edit that you made... I thought that, since the cacique is represented in Jayuya's coat of arms, it would be useful for people to see the Coat of Arms itself. Anyway, perhaps its better to have nothing distracting from the main theme in such a small article. Saludos! Thief12 22:07, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
I got your e-mail about the block I made. It turns out the user I had blocked was using AOL, and had the same IP address as you. Seeing as I have not blocked this specific IP number by name, I cannot undo it. Are you still able to edit? -- King of All the Franks 11:17, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
Hey, I hope yo are doing ok. There are peple that keep including the US President as the Chief of State of Puerto Rico, a title that doesn't exist and it is nowhere in our constitution. They are equating the relationship of the president and Puerto Rico with that of the Queen and Commonwealth Realms. What is your opinion? Check the talk page in the Puerto Rico article. Thanks for your attention. Cjrs 79 22:16, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi Tony! Thank you so much for the greeting on my talk page! It made me smile. I hope all is well with you and your family also, and I wish you a wonderful celebration this Christmas and every success in the year that follows. God bless you all. David Cannon 10:31, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your wishes, Tony. Regardless of one's personal religious beliefs, a good wish is always appreciated and cherished.
Happy Holidays and a Great new year!!!
Sebastian Kessel Talk 20:20, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the good wishes. Happy Holidays to you too. I haven't had much time to edit the last few months. Hopefully I will have some free time in the holidays.
I saw the controversy in the PR article and I had to post my opinions. It's there if you wish to read it. Hope I don't stir up even more controversy. See you around Joelito 21:16, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
The official languages of Puerto Rico are by law English and Spanish. The Law of January 5, 1993. It was mainly a political move by Pedro Roselló becuase it eliminated a law by Rafael Hernández Colón which had made Spanish the official language of Puerto Rico. Joelito 02:25, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
... for the detail. Until I know, You are a good friend who enjoys spending time with family, Puerto Rico heritage, baseball, music and boxing all-year-round.

Me too. As the song says - the cat had a maritime military father, the cat had a maritime military father, the cat had a maritime military father, a Shakespearian character got a ring, and the cat was a father!

I get what you mean but John Leguizamo wasn't born in the United States or Puerto Rico. Him being categorized under Puerto Rican actors is absurd. He should only be categorized under Colombian actors (place of birth) and American actors (citizenship). You don't see American actors of Mexican descent (like Jessica Alba, Eva Longoria, etc.) categorized under Mexican actors simply because of their ethnicity. In fact, that category contains only Mexican people by birth or citizenship/nationality. ---> Sagitario 15:31, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Merry Christmas, belated Thanksgiving and Happy new Year! -- Vizcarra 02:35, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
Tony, thank you for the Christmas greeting. I wish you a Merry Christmas as well, and a Happy New Year. Real life has been keeping me so busy that I haven't logged on in quite some time. I'm glad I did today. Take care. SWAdair | [[User talk:SWAdair|Talk]] 07:20, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

An image or media file that you uploaded, Image:Ari1.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. |

Ari Meyers Image Results: 15 "Keep" / 2 "Delete" *However, I, the Marine. decided to replaced the image with one that has a clearer copyright status.
Hi Tony! I've voted to keep the image. I'm sorry this newbie has done this - there's nothing unencyclopedic about the image, it's in good taste, and it's PD. If that doesn't make it suitable for Wikipedia, I don't know what does. Anyway, have a great Christmas! David Cannon 04:46, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
The wallpaper from Ari Meyers Online includes two images together. You cut one of the images from it for use in our encyclopedia. Anyway, why do you believe the image is public domain? Please provide your rationale. Adnghiem501 10:48, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
Merry Christmas, Tony! I hope you enjoy your present. Linuxbeak (drop me a line) 04:08, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi Tony! Thank you so much for that Christmas gift you left on my talk page! The painting is absolutely beautiful, and the music that goes with it has a vibrant, happy sound. I hope you've had as joyful a Christmas as I've had. David Cannon 09:27, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
Did you mean to add your message to User talk:Joaquin Murietta? It kind of doesn't make any sense in the article's talk page. Regards, howch e ng { chat} 06:29, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi Tony!
Thank you so much for that very kind New Year greeting on my talk page. One of the great pleasures of contributing to Wikipedia has been in meeting people like you. You have no idea how your kind notes have encouraged me, and I want you to know how much I appreciate them.
It's now 1.22 a.m. where I am. I've just got back from Devonport, where my family and I went to the summit of Mount Victoria to watch a fireworks display from Auckland's Sky Tower. That followed a late dinner at a restaurant to see the old year out.
Anyway, I hope you're having a great New Year celebration, and that 2006 will bring every blessing to you and your family. David Cannon 12:24, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
I wish you a happy, healthy and successful 2006. 8-) MusiCitizen 20:36, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

I see Brookie has already beaten me to it - but thank you so much for that Feliz Día de Reyes painting you left on my talk page. As always, your kind and thoughtful gift is very much appreciated. Your kind words about me were extremely heartwarming too. I hope you had a wonderful celebration. David Cannon 12:43, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
I came across the image [[Image:Hagee in MARPAT with Soldier.jpg]] and would like to have it renamed to Hagee in MARPAT with Marine.jpg
In reading Help:Moving_a_page, it seems that I cannot simply move it since it is in image space. Your help would be appreciated. (I'll understand if you advice to leave it be.) — ERcheck @ 14:37, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Hola Papi. How's it going? I wanted to invite you to become a member of the new project about our pais. If you want to, just click there and list your name where it has the list of writers on the project. As you can see, the page is poorly formatted. I don't know how to build a country-box, but we'll work on it :)
I hope I can see your name there soon! Thanks and God bless you!
Your wiki-son, Antonio Oh Daddy's Boy Martin
Thank you, I will check them out. I think women are pretty important too 8). Also, I never got around to thank you for wishing me a Merry Christmas. I hope your holidays were joyous. I've been working with Antonio on the Mexican-American project, and we have become wiki-friends. He asked me to join the Boricua project too, and I was taking a look at some of the articles to see what they needed. I don't think I'll be able to help out too much, (as far as doing in-depth research--my hands are a bit full) but I can stop by from time to time to make suggestions and do copyedits, things like that. Best of luck on the project, y que le vaya bien, Rockero420 01:11, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
I’m sorry to say that this user want to delete all articles in Dates in baseball (please see), because he (or she) ‘’don't see baseball history by date as notable or useful”. What do you think about it? Thanks in advance. MusiCitizen 21:29, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
Hi, Tony. We got an email on the Help Desk mailing list claiming that this image is not the judge. Can you verify? The person who wrote the email claims to be the judge's personal secretary. User:Zoe| (talk) 21:15, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I think you may have been mistaken in marking Image:Tito Rodriguez.JPG as public domain. See the image page. Tuf-Kat 20:00, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
I think it's a great idea Tony. We must establish some parameters regarding the content of the section so it doesn't become an area of debate or revert wars (people thinking the other person's info is not relevant or good). Also I was wondering if you had seen the template I created for the 'see also' section. If you think I left anything let me know. Joelito 20:05, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
What about calling it a Trivia Section like other articles have it? Cjrs 79 21:19, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Smylere Snape
21:28, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
-I think calling it Did You Know? sounds better than "Trivia." Trivia can be any random fact, like that PR has 78 municipalities. Did You Know suggests interesting facts. Smylere Snape 22:31, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
-Will do. I'll help in any way I can. We should keep an eye out for useless trivia that might pop up. Smylere Snape 01:35, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi Tony - seems we already have a {{ PuertoRico-bio-stub}}. It was created last month without being proposed at WP:WSS, which is why no-one knew about it. Grutness... wha? 22:24, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the Boricua Barnstar. It means a lot. I hope I can live up to it. Gracias hermano! Smylere Snape 02:43, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
It's all good. By the way (if you've seen the recent piece of discussion on Prinze Jr's discussion page), you haven't happened to see a really good source about Prinze's mother's ancestry, have you? I'm leaning towards that rare "Irish/English/Native" rather than Italian. I think the Italian started somewhere and got re-posted all over the place, including the IMDB, and for all I know certain interviewers of Prinze, Jr. just who mention his "Italian mother" in their articles take that info from somewhere online, instead of asking him personally - but I could be wrong. By the way, I guess I'll have to change the Freddie Prinze (Sr) article as well, since it's fairly likely that he wasn't actually Jewish, or even Hungarian... JackO'Lantern 22:04, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi, dear Tony! First, let me thank you for your kind and beautiful words. You really flatter me with your words! ;) I also find your own userpage very beautiful, interesting and extremely inspiring, and I thank you for sharing your anecdotes and thoughts; they realy show you're a very special person. I really admire those who, like you, have dedicated themselves to defend freedom and found pride in their descent. It truly reflects my own feelings and beliefs, but your case is worthy of extra admiration, considering you upheld the rights of your own ethnicity in a time that was way harder than it is now.
Btw, of course you can use my template for your own archive, Tony - in fact, just let me know, and I'll create one at your own user space for you, and adapt it to your Talk page if you want. Just let me know, and I'll do it right away. Again, thank you for your kindness - it seems to be a rare gift these days. Kisses! Phædriel ♥ tell me - 21:21, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for the Barnstar. I was just basically checking out the Puerto Rican actors list and making a few corrections/changes. JackO'Lantern 00:23, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Cacique_Jumacao.JPG. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{ GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{ Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. -- Carnildo 00:38, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
