I'll tell you this for free: the idea that a "nation" or a "culture" or a "community" has rights which supersede the rights of human beings is the guaranteed road to a nightmare. Add to that the idea that the descendents of an oppressor have to be punished in the oppressor's place, and your nightmare will become hell
Could we possibly agree not to specify the finer points of residence and place of birth on that page? That takes us back to the flag debate you may remember. The intro explains the critia and the specific info can be found on the bio pages. I just fear this getting very messy again. Akerbeltz (talk) 12:40, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Me again... I seem to be intent on filling your talk page! I was wondering if you could give me/us a reality check at the Salazarese page? We seem to have ended up with a 1 sentence intro and a 1 paragraph justification and I don't seem to be getting through. But then, maybe I'm wrong... Cheers!

Your search fu is weak. Talk:Spanish naming customs#Basque names is easy to find from within Wikipedia. I added it to basque surnames. Thanks for the hint. --Error (talk) 00:00, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
I'd like to know what are your sources of information about the linguistic situation in Catalonia, as you are repeatedly removing (as opposed to discussing, referencing, contrasting, etc.) any mention of the link between immigration and Spanish language in Catalonia. My own sources of information are that I live here (in Catalonia) and that link is for me overwhelmingly obvious, though of course I can waste my time finding references for the obvious if you persist in your removing. --Jotamar (talk) 18:04, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello Mountolive, long time no see. As you know I left the English Wikipedia -especially articles related to Spain- about a year ago, but I couldn't help but notice the following peculiarity, that seems to have been left untouched for months, if not years.
Look at these:
To my surprise:
Then (this one is funny):
Others:
While for these, a categorical description is given (true? unreferenced?):
The ambiguous:
As expected:
And last but not least:
Interesting, isn't it? In any case, a major revamp of those articles would be a time-consuming endeavor, but I thought I would share my findings with you.
Peace,
PS. If you know of any good Spanish restaurants [with real Spanish food] in Houston, let me know... I might have to head down there on a short visit... --the Dúnadan 02:12, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi Mountolive,
In English this is usually either Hispanic day or The National Day of Spain though I've seen variations of the second. All the best, Valenciano (talk) 19:27, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Palmeral of Elche, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Date. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

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. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:58, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
Hello and Happy 2016! Sorry to bother you. I saw that you were one of the first editors of Crown of Aragon. I am trying to launch a Wikiproject to run more or less in parallel with the Spanish counterpart. I was wondering whether you would be interested in taking part. Thanks for yer time, Edmarinuk (talk) 15:08, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I have just read your message despite making some changes to the article already.
Let's see: the majority factor had no effect for the election being held, and if it had, it was negligible. You would have to put a source for that (and I mean a source saying that the election was held for the lack of a majority, that is, linking both situations (1. the lack of a majority, and 2. an election being held)), or otherwise you would be giving too much weight to a situation that is really not noticeable. Yes, CiU did not have a majority. And yes, CiU relied on ERC support. But keep in mind the political background for this: CiU was in power in 2012, when it held a comfortable 62-seat strong plurality and relied on PP-PSC-ERC support (CiU's position was so strong it could freely chose which party they wanted to ally at which time). Then, CiU embraced independence, and triggered an election for late 2012 (when one wouldn't have been due until late 2014). That is, CiU didn't had to trigger the election as they had a strong plurality, but they did: because of independence. After the 2012 election, not-independentist parties (PSC and PP) offered to support CiU and provide them with a majority if they abandoned the independence idea (and mathematically, it would have been possible), but CiU didn't and clinged on to ERC. Thus, it is not that ERC forced CiU into embracing independence under the threat of breaking the majority, but it was CiU on its own will that embraced independence, because they wanted to. And they called the 2015 election because they wanted to, just as they did in 2012. The lack of a CiU's majority issue is not worth noticing as one of the causes for election, since it wasn't. In fact, it was Mas who threatened ERC to give in to a joint list or not have any election at all.
You say that CDC and ERC are bitter rivals, but CDC has asked ERC for a joint coalition for two times to contest general elections (back in 2015, and now again) and it was because of ERC's rejection that they haven't come to fruition for now. You would need sources for making such statements that the election was held as a consequence of CiU having no majority, because independence was the main (and, as far as we can know, only) reason for that.

I saw your question about the Anthemis chrysantha redirect at User talk:Joseph Laferriere#Anthemis Chrysanta. Joseph Laferriere hasn't been active on Wikipedia recently, so you're not likely to get a response from him. Please go ahead and write an article for this species. The reason it is a redirect is that multiple species have been given the name Anthemis chrysantha. The name can only correctly be applied to one species, while the remaining ones are biological homonyms. You can see the various homonyms here. The redirect is for a plant described as Anthemis chrysantha by Schur in 1866. J. Gay described an Anthemis chrysantha in 1848; Gay's plant is an accepted species and deserves an article if you'd like to write one. Plantdrew (talk) 17:04, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

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 Rif Revolt (1957–1959) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://photography.jadaliyya.com/pages/index/20664/reconsidering-the-rif-revolt. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — Diannaa (talk) 19:44, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
