Nice work on Economy of Venezuela. bobrayner (talk) 18:29, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Would you consider improving some other, related articles? Let me know if you need help with anything. bobrayner (talk) 16:52, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the welcome! I just learned how to use the talk board so I'm sorry for the tardy response.

Thank you, --ZiaLater (talk) 01:01, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

	The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
	For your outstanding work in the 2014 Venezuelan Protests article. Jamez42 (talk) 02:42, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Since the start of the 2014 Venezuelan protests, you have tirelessly helped to improve its article, have done a marvelous work and made over 800 edits (and counting!). I reward you with this barnstar two months after the Youth Day in Venezuela. Congratulations, you deserve it!. --Jamez42 (talk) 02:49, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My first barnstar! Thank you for your help on the article too Jamez42. All of those pictures were needed in the article. Stay safe!

Thank you!--ZiaLater (talk) 02:52, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome, you really deserve it :) I'll try to keep helping with the article too, stay safe too!--Jamez42 (talk) 03:02, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I recently noticed an egregious BLP violation on the Czech page of Leopoldo López found here. The content violates Wikipedia's BLP policy and the source they are using is far from reliable. I tried fixing it but I was quickly reverted. Do you think you could help me out in trying to remove this information? I noticed you contributed significantly to Leopoldo Lopez's English page so I decided to come to you for help. Thank you in advance! Hope to hear back soon. 66.215.147.124 (talk) 23:50, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I can take a look but I have to warn you about canvassing. I will add information about him to the page since there isn't much.--ZiaLater (talk) 00:59, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I see that you are working at the "2014 Venezuelan protests" page with a focus on cooperation and a non-confrontational approach. Good for that. Are you pro-oposition or chavista? Or neither? I wish I could contribute more to the page but the article is very big, and I like to focus more on elections than anything else. --yeah_93 (talk) 17:53, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to the article! The article has had a lot of disputes so I try to keep things as neutral as possible. I see benefits from both positions. I have a lot of sources from what people claim are "opposition sources" but most of those sources are just for the timeline. In the case of Chavez, he did a lot of good things for the people but a lot of things went wrong during his presidency too. We're human and we aren't perfect. Enough of my spiel...

If you want to contribute to elections just look at the elections section in the article. It could use a little more if you compare it to the economic section. If you want to broaden your use of sources I suggest that you use Google Chrome as it will roughly translate what is said in Spanish sources. If you want to focus on more elections in Venezuela, I suggest that you look at the Hugo Chavez article since it seems like a lot of stuff is missing there. Again, welcome to the article and if you need any more help just ask!--ZiaLater (talk) 19:34, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm unsure what SPA means. But I noticed you immediately redid my edits. One of them made a claim with no support in the referenced citation. That's why I reworded it. The line I deleted was pure speculation and didn't add anything to the facts of the constituent assembly. I know you don't want to be called slanted, I would not do that because I dont know you. I just think that as it looks right now I"m only seeing US sources and opposition friendly positions. Toka248 (User talk:Toka248#top|talk]]) 07:49, 30 July 2017

Don't worry; you at least try to make constructive edits, not like the occasional troll trying to unilaterally modify parties' ideologies on their respective articles because they feel like it. As about Podemos, really the only "leader" as of now is Pablo Iglesias as Secretary-General. There is no "President" or "Spokeperson" offices as in other parties, nor any other relevant office being worth mentioned in the infobox. Of course, there is the "founder" option, but there are just too many to fit the infobox: Pablo Iglesias, Iñigo Errejón, Carolina Bescansa, Juan Carlos Monedero, Luis Alegre, Tania González, Teresa Rodríguez, etc. The Spanish article also does it this way, mentioning only Pablo Iglesias as Secretary-General. Cheers. Impru20 (talk) 17:37, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, thank you. You're doing a good job at keeping the article in line.--ZiaLater (talk) 17:39, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, sorry, I missed the message. Well, I don't think we should use a different graph, because it could hide useful data that would be interesting to get the whole picture. It's not the same for the graph to start in April 2014, when PP was at ~30% and PSOE at ~25% (with IU and UPyD around ~15% and ~10%, respectively) that it to start from 2011. Keep in mind that Podemos' rise came as a result of PP and PSOE's erosion, because of PP's government management and PSOE's inability to effectively build a credible opposition to it, and that's a situation that has built up since the last general election to now.

Btw, it is also a lot simpler to keep updating just one graph that doing it with two. Impru20 (talk) 10:46, 15 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Impru20:Ok, sounds good. I just wanted to show the actual rise of Podemos but I guess your explanation helps. I'll keep the file in case popularity for Podemos changes so we could still show the "rise" in that particular section. Thanks for replying!--ZiaLater (talk) 22:15, 15 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ZiaLater, I uploaded to my personal gallery a low size scanned version, however, i dont know how upload it here under fair use, could you help me? [1]. thanks --The_Photographer (talk) 01:12, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@The Photographer:They look very nice and thanks for saving me a couple of minutes of scanning since I was missing one. Give me a few minutes and I'll guide you through it.--ZiaLater (talk) 01:16, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@The Photographer: Ok, start on the WP Upload Wizard here, fill in the first few boxes and then click the "This is a copyrighted, non-free work, but I believe it is Fair Use" (middle selection). After that, there should be a selection dropbox where you can choose "Depiction of currency (banknotes, coins etc.)", for the "Original publication" you can place "own image". For the "purpose", you can say "It adds significantly to the article, as the article is specifically about the subject of the image." For the alternative, you can say "Cannot be replaced with a copyright free alternative." --ZiaLater (talk) 01:55, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(In answering on: User talk:Corriebertus#Persecution of Yazidis by ISIL article, 9 April.)

Hello, ZiaLater. I'll not react now on your changes in the Infobox, I'll just react on your section 'Releases of Yaz...'. If I assume (without checking) that your added facts are correct, I'm not very satisfied to see that new subsection arranged under a section (§3) called 'Massacres...', because releasing is not massacring/forced exile/slavery/human trafficking/etc..

Releasing is (of course) interesting and important, but it is not massacring or the like. If you feel this article is the best place to mention it, then mention it there in a separate, new, section. That would separate in from 'the massacres', presenting it as a sort of aftermath, or 'side-topic'. --Corriebertus (talk) 12:16, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Corriebertus: Ok, I made a separate section for the release information. I figured it might have fit in with the human trafficking elements in the section but you're right. Thanks for the response!--ZiaLater (talk) 12:23, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You are really quick. I was just on my way to change my words, because they could seem a bit bossy, severe. It is all just my opinion, nothing more, that was what I had wanted to make clearer, in my posting of 15 minutes ago. But yes: this new presentation of yours pleases me more, it seems correcter to me. --Corriebertus (talk) 12:30, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Corriebertus: Don't worry, I've had worse encounters with users and I didn't find your words offensive. I also saw that you are from the Netherlands and found a related article that may interest you. Thanks for your help!--ZiaLater (talk) 12:33, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bye, for now. --Corriebertus (talk) 16:22, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I dont know how is Anexo in wikipedia on english, Anexo is a special name for something that is not really a article, it could be a list or graphics. This could be interesting for you. --The_Photographer (talk) 19:19, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@The Photographer: That is interesting. I'm not sure if there is something like that on the english Wikipedia but it would be nice to have if someone wanted to analyze the economic situation for themselves. I think you should look at this too (Microsoft Excel).--ZiaLater (talk) 22:30, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please, could you upload each chart data (source program) to commonsarchive adding the template {{Commons Archive|Myfilesource.zip}} for each graphic uploaded for you in commons, and please remember add source information about your charts in commons because "Own work" is not enough, you need add a link of the primary source also. Upload source file to commonsarchive is important for translate it to spanish or make any modification. I remember that you are using some software in your macos, you can upload it directly to commonsarchive or if you have another files about the same chart you could compress all the files in one Zip file and upload it to commonsarchive also. You could try LibreOffice. Thanks, I am translating every article that you are publishing to spanish, please, let me know some important to add.

it looks absolutely professional dude!! well done Hooray!!!

@Plazmid:You're welcome. It was difficult finding some things but if you enter "La Mancha Negra" (with the quotation marks) in Google, it will show more. Since it is in Spanish, using a browser like Google Chrome may help since it is easier to have it translate instead of trying to do it in your head. Let me know if you need any assistance with any other articles!--ZiaLater (talk) 19:52, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ZiaLater, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled.

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.} 00:57, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am aware, for experience, that you are proficient at cherry-picking sources in order to push a POV, but have at least a modicum of decency and bring a sentence that unambiguously mentions the "pink tide". Best regards.--Asqueladd (talk) 23:24, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Asqueladd:Pretty sure they are talking about the Pink Tide here. I can provide more sources if you would like. Thanks for your concern!--ZiaLater (talk) 00:22, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Look at the changes I've made to the lead. I've rephrased the whole thing. I have only removed the "New right" part from the lead, transferring it to the body, as it looks to be the most undue.--Asqueladd (talk) 19:47, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Zia! You are right, but before 2013 the situation in Venezuela was good, I tell you this because I live in Venezuela and I'm always seeing and reading how the things are going.. So, you cannot say that this crisis is "Bolivarian crisis" because when you say that, you mean that the crisis started in 1999, when it isn't.. However, thankyou for your contribution in the page! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stranger789 (talk • contribs) 04:46, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Stranger789: I know that you live in Venezuela, but on Wikipedia we cannot have original research (Wikipedia:OR). So we can say it happened in Bolivarian Venezuela but we can't exactly get an exact date. You might have had a personal experience in your social class that was much different than others in 2013, others might have been suffering long beforehand. Not trying to assume anything as this is an example, but this is why it would be more suitable to have the title more vague.--ZiaLater (talk) 07:41, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Stranger789: I'm helping to Stranger User on Wikipedia Spanish too. It's difficult be neutral when you are a element in the crisis. Stranger I underestand your personal motive, however, it's irrelevant for Wikipedia Articles. I know that spanish Venezuelan articles are unbalanced because nobody take care of this non neutrality issue, however, taking a radical point of view is not helping and it could generate a counterproductive vision and a reason to doubt the veracity of the information. I can tell you about my personal case, I am Venezuelan exiled and my vision is biased against the current government in Venezuela. I have withdrawn from the editing of these controversial articles to avoid a blockade. Whether you want it or not, there are radical visions within some users on Wikipedia, the mechanics of wikipedia operation makes the majority usually with left-wing political thinking. --The_Photographer (talk) 12:39, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

We are students writing an article on COPREDAL as part of our class Academic Discourse and Writing at Tec de Monterrey. Since you are an experienced Wikipedian and have an interest in these kind of topics, we would like to know if you could take a few moments to take a look at the article and give us feedback.

@Castañeda.M: I'll certainly help you.--ZiaLater (talk) 15:08, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the offer! I have a drafting process that I require of students, which is actually the same process I use myself (Im working on an article along with them in my sandbox). Their article is in the "organize info into main headers" into grouping into paragraphs (which mine is in). It will also need to be shortened as they have a word limit of 500 (better a short, well-done article than....). Sentence structure and putting citations in proper format will come after that. You are welcome to make suggestions about organization and which info is the most important to keep right now, but please dont start making changes to the sentences (such as they are) or citations.... yet. They have a deadline for the current step of Monday. Again, thanks!Thelmadatter (talk) 00:25, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think that we should focus on the raisons of the problem and explain what is happening using a neutral editing.

Thanks Zia, a hug --The_Photographer (talk) 16:47, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@The Photographer: I think that the difference between the Spanish article and the English article is that the Spanish article is grouping the protest info into it while we have a separate article, the 2017 Venezuelan protests. In my opinion, I think that the constitutional crisis is over after the reversal of the decision but the government is still attempting to consolidate its actions solely to its own party. Maduro has said recently that he is surprised that the National Assembly isn't in jail yet. So, either way the government will still use the TSJ for its own purposes and bypass the NA in order to keep the "revolution" going. The current protests, though they stemmed from the constitutional crisis, are more of the opposition gathering dissatisfied Venezuelans who want change. I wouldn't say that the protests are due to the constitutional crisis, but the entire crisis itself.

With the pope asking for more dialogue, Maduro pleading to the opposition to keep talking, and for the opposition to criticize the pope while continuing protests, it is difficult to see where this is going to go. I think the protests will continue for a bit, but eventually the opposition will have to think about elections. Capriles had nothing to lose since he was banned so he decided to protest. It's interesting that Henry Ramos Allup has stayed out of all of this and the protests since he is seeking to run for president. His wife, Diana D'Agostino, is even criticizing the protesting opposition on TeleSUR (state media) and supposedly looked down on Lilian Tintori for leading the protests. She kinda agreed with me on Capriles having nothing to lose and wanting to protest, almost as if he is a sore loser. What's interesting is that with Allup supposedly having ties through his brother-in-law Francisco D'Agostino an executive of Derwick Associates (who also has some controversial links to PSUV officials), it makes me skeptical that the crisis in Venezuela will resolve anytime soon. I just hope that your family and everyone else is doing well through these tough times. It seems that there is a power vacuum in the country which is never a good thing. Take care.--ZiaLater (talk) 20:21, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Zia, thanks for your quick answer. I agree with you IMHO the crisis is not solving and actually because the oposition need the GNB to do the change, however, the current GNB is actually Cuban G2. On the other hand, Francisco papa is calling to do a not sence dialog (laltelly he added -"we need clear rules"- comment). BTW, My mother is with me in this moment, however, I did'nt get she here in Brazil because She want comme back to be with my father and sister (and her baby). The people don't want get out of the country because always there is another family member in Venezuela and it's creating a human chaing of pain. About of WP Spanish article, beleave me that Spanish Wikipedia edition is like a war because there are government employees rollbacking my editions and generating false consensus. BTW, you were quoted here, however, only me was pinged --The_Photographer (talk) 20:47, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@The Photographer: Wow, I actually take back some of what I said. I guess Henry Ramos Allup did march today. Also, the new constitution topic is evolving as well.--ZiaLater (talk) 22:38, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I know very close the Allup and D'Angostino situation, maybe the "chavismo" had created a false oposition or simply there are a common good called corruption and the supposed struggle between opposition and government is only a circus to keep the population distracted. Btw, in this moment There is another coup calling to constituent communal assembly and IMHO it's another smoke screen. --The_Photographer (talk) 01:07, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I thought you might be interested in seeing the current nomination in the INT of the Venezuelan referendum. There are some users that are opposing the idea and I don't want to force against what might already be a consensus, but maybe you could suggest a better alternative to highlight the situation of the country.

Hi The MUD have created a parallel court. Could you add it ? --Panam2014 (talk) 16:36, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Panam2014! They actually haven't created a "parallel" court, they nominated people to replace the existing TSJ. I did not really see them make rulings or exert any authority yet, so the topic is not notable enough for Wikipedia yet. The opposition attempted to make a parallel government, but backed away from the "Government of National Unity" plan.

As you seem to be quite active and I'm not well at understanding Spanish, and also because the talk page of the article is not having a lot of activity any more, I hope you can help with an issue on National Constituent Assembly 2017 of Venezuela. The first VP Aristóbulo Istúriz was replaced by Elvis Amoroso on 17 August. This was done because Istúriz had been selected as a gubernatorial candidate. (http://www.ultimasnoticias.com.ve/noticias/politica/elvis-amoroso-designado-como-primer-vicepresidente-de-la-anc/) I have updated the article to show Elvis as the first VP. However, what I don't know is whether Istúriz is still a member of the Presidential Commission of the Assembly. If you can help with it and find a source also, I will be highly obliged. Thank you.

It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Thank you. --Dereck Camacho (talk) 13:44, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I know, I've been warned before. That's why I said "you are my trusted Latin America/political/neutrality users". I know they are neutral and have been involved in similar articles, but with you saying they "hold the same opinion as you" is a lack of good faith. Usually when I ask for the opinion of others it is because I do not want editing to devolve into an edit war, especially in articles where users are scant. In a side note, why are you not placing a notification on their talk page as well? They did the same thing and I did not chase them with a pitchfork. I find this interesting... --ZiaLater (talk) 15:39, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm using a pre-made template so any content complain of it that you have is not because I wrote it. Pinging people who has been part of a discussion or previous editors in an article is not carvassing, but feel free to report it in the Incidents noticeboard if you think it is as I will if you do it again. Greetings. --Dereck Camacho (talk) 20:46, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I saw your post on the Project Med talk page and thought I would reply here instead. First I love your idea and don't get discouraged if the interest level is not what it should be. Second, I would be glad to help and since my specialty is women's health topics, I'm probably a good editor to collaborate with on this. I am very good at finding the required medical citations and I have access to the huge medical school library at the University of Pittsburgh. I also have access to other sociology-type journals. In addition, I've been frustrated by the 'ho-hum' attitude regarding topics like this. I wrote the clinical content that was added to Rape. I also wrote Sexism in medicine (no surprise there, I suppose). On a personal level, I am absolutely dismayed and alarmed at the violence against women in sub-sahara African. I'll take a look at all the other chatter on all the other relevant talk pages to better orient myself to the scope of this 'project'. I have confidence that we can make this work.

@Barbara (WVS): Thank you for your interest! Since you live in the United States, I may start with an article surrounding that topic so it may be more familiar. I remember reading about how even in the media in the United States, there are violent undertones in certain images (male dominance, etc). This could be incorporated, but I do not know if I will go that far. Merry Christmas to you as well!----ZiaLater (talk) 20:49, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

We can certainly start with the US if you like. Perhaps then we can use this article as some kind of pattern for the subsequent articles. The image you linked to also is some kind of clue to how the violence is often condoned in popular culture. I will follow your lead. If you want to put a draft in your user space I can also work on it there. I will start to look around in my sources to see what I can find. Keep in touch.

Your image, File:Implied_vs_Official_Value_VEF.png, needs to be updated. The 10:1 official rate is now a thing of the past.

@Panam2014: So I don't know how it is worded, but the CNE's agreement with participating opposition parties "stipulates the election of legislative and municipal councilors, the extension of the term for the Electoral Registry and the qualification of the voting centers that were closed in the regional and municipal elections." [1] Does this mean that the legislative and municipal councilors will be elected in the same elections as the presidency?----ZiaLater (talk) 21:42, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think but we should wait. Have you got an idea for the article's names ? Because in 2017, it was not full regional election but governors election, and no municipal election, but mayors elections. And for National Assemly ? --Panam2014 (talk) 23:06, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Panam2014:To be honest, I do not know yet. Things are changing by the week. For all we know the election could have a different date again.----ZiaLater (talk) 01:56, 2 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Panam2014: Ok, so here is a good source. According to La Verdad:

"The main rector of the National Electoral Council of Venezuela (CNE) Tania D'Amelio reported today that only the 14 political parties that submitted candidacies for the presidential elections will have the right to register applicants to the more than 500 positions of regional legislators. ... The elections to which the official refers will be held next to the presidential elections announced for next May 20 and will define the names of the representatives of more than 500 of the Legislative Councils of the 23 states of the country. With this, most of the opposition parties were unable to measure themselves in this contest after refusing to participate in the presidential elections due to the alleged lack of guarantees, their distrust of the process and the authorities that direct the CNE, accused of serving the Government of Nicolás Maduro."

Hope this helps!----ZiaLater (talk) 18:39, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi We should create an article about the organization. We have also for Movement We Are Venezuela for the new Maduro-led party. --Panam2014 (talk) 22:39, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Panam2014: I do not think that the Frente is notable enough for an article yet. After or closer toward the election if they become more notable, then an article should be considered. Just like the opposition's mock "Supreme Tribunal of Justice" that exists outside of Venezuela, I think this is just another name plastered onto the same group.

Here is an opinion piece penned by Mark Weisbrot. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:50, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Michigan page you linked to says: AllSides uses a patented bias rating system to classify news sources as left, center, or right leaning. Components of the rating system include crowd-sourcing, surveys, internal research, and use of third party sources such as Wikipedia and research conducted by Groseclose and Milyo at UCLA. Note that while the Groseclose & Milyo results are popular, the methodology it is not without critique.

Crowd-sourced, uses Wikipedia, etc. The "leanings" for all of the news media it lists come from AllSides, not Pew. Your edit to HuffPost stated it is left to far-left. Your source says "These news sources are rated as "Left" by Allsides. According to the Pew survey, they are more trusted than distrusted by people who are mostly liberal, consistently liberal; and are more distrusted than trusted by people who are mostly conservative, and consistently conservative." It's pretty odd that the Michigan page turns that into "Far left", which suggests strongly to me it's not a reliable source itself. In any case, the actual source for the "lean" is AllSides. This is not a reliable source. Doug Weller talk 10:36, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot. The bit about audience relates to Pew, but the "leanings" which is what you are adding is from AllSides. Pew's source is 2014, a long time ago in political terms, and although your edit summary mentions audience, your text doesn't. Doug Weller talk 10:39, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand your reason for wanting to delete Template:Military of Peru. You linked to the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history#National Military Templates, but that discussion is about the naming of templates, not their deletion, and does not mention this one in particular. If the name is the problem, then it should be renamed by moving it to the new title, not by deletion.

In any case, it cannot be deleted while it is in use on multiple articles. It would first have to be removed from all those articles. Furthermore, the speedy deletion request gets transcluded on to all the pages on which the template is used, placing multiple pages in the speedy deletion category, which is not a good thing.

Hi ZiaLater. Can you take a look at, and keep an eye on, Tulio Capriles Mendoza? The subject of the article keeps trying to mess with it, claiming that it defames him. Many of the citations are not immediately viewable, but maybe you are familiar with the situation or can find viewable citations or confirm what is in the article. Thanks! (PS: I put a search box on the talkpage of the article, and also added a news report I found to the talkpage.) Thanks again, Softlavender (talk) 04:32, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:World Food Programme.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:45, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Zia, I was wondering if you can help me with something, I think you know how to make the background of these graphics transparent, right? --Dereck Camacho (talk) 23:19, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is enough to say Greece supports Maduro if the Party of the Prime Minister says so. Jim7049 (talk) 05:39, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
