Re. Revert Battle

Thank you for contacting me. I made a bried analysis of the situation here. According to European American, "A European American, or a Euro-American, is a person who resides in the United States and is either the descendant of European immigrants or from Europe him or herself. They are classified as White in the United States Census, 2000". I must say that I found 23prootie's edits rather senseless. I can't see where's the E.U. bias there, as there's many European ethnicities mentioned there from countries that are not even part of the European Union. Adding entries such as "Canadian" or "Pennsylvania Dutch" is really out of line. I see that users have been discussing this on the talk page, so the revert war is likely to cease. Tell me if it persists. Regards, Húsönd 04:10, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Basque banner

Hi, Joebengo! Looks like I'll probably finish up with tthe WikiProject Spain banners tonight. If you're still up for it, I can then run your Basque articles tomorrow.

I took a look at Joebengo/categories and (to my untrained eye) the list looks like they're all at least 80% Basque, so we shouldn't have a problem with over-tagging. Do you know approximately how many articles are in those categories? If it's less than 1,000, I can run them all in one go. If there are more than that, I should split it into two runs.

Let me know when you want to proceed! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 14:50, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Somehow I missed your reply until now - I'll get it ready, but it won't start until tomorrow. Since we don't know how many articles there are, I'm going to break it into two runs. Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions or anything crops up. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 06:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Joebengo! I've completed the two runs to add the banner to your category list. Let me know if I can help with anything else! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 14:46, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Hello. I intended no insult with my addition to the Basque page. Sorry!Bearian 22:37, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations!

If you go to Miami University, take a look at Beta Theta Pi, which was founded there. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 00:56, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Ill definitly take a look at it if i go there. Were you in it or something?--Joebengo 02:24, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm a Beta, but not from Miami. But I did get to visit there when I was an undergrad and was impressed with the fraternity. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 04:44, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Its a pretty school and its only like 30 minutes from home for me so I just might end up going there.--Joebengo 12:59, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Tamil CFD

Over at Misplaced Pages:Categories for discussion/Log/2007 March 9#Category:Tamil Americans, you'll probably want to elaborate on your reasoning for your !vote. What you've said is fairly similar to WP:PERNOM and probably won't be weighed very heavily by the closing admin. Elaborating on what you feel is important there will help, though. =) — coelacan — 02:36, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Listen, the edits that I made was just taking outall of that info that didn't need to be there. NONE of those things were ever confirmed, so they didn' need to be listed.

basque project

Thank you so much for inviting me. I will gladly join the WikiProject Basque and hoping to work with you on various Basque articles. Thanks again. Euskera 21:51, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Back?

Iepa, Joe.

I have been through a loooong wikibreak. I was thinking in leaving Misplaced Pages totally but fineally some justice has been made in one major issue behind my wiki-attrition (certain very disruptive and wearing neonazi element has finally been banned, not without much struggle) and I'm considering to return now.

Enjoy, --Sugaar 12:25, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

I've wikified better the UEFS Futsal European Championship 2006 page you labeled to wikify. What about now ? --Puigsacalm 14:39, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

It is much better now. I have removed the tag.--Joebengo 14:54, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations on leading the Navy article to GA status. A lot of dedicated work! Thanks for all your efforts!

(Be nice if for the reward for getting GA status, Misplaced Pages would automatically block unregistered users!  :) Student7 12:42, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Ya that would be an excellent reward. Too bad it wont ever happen.--Joebengo 16:36, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Can you please try not to get my American Idol Scoreboard page deleted I worked hard on it already and it's really useful to us American Idol fans. I understand that it's unencyclopedic, but it's helpful to people and myself and it's not like it's illegal or wrong, it's just a info page what's wrong with that?

		Diderot Barnstar for Encyclopaedic Excellence
		This special barnstar to Joebengo for his excellent contribution on Misplaced Pages Encyclopedia. Great work on Basque related articles and many thanks for contributing, you are a great encyclopedist :)

Kaixo, I need help on Basque Misplaced Pages, we have very few Basque speakers! :( Catalans are going much better. Euskera 17:53, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Kaixo

Dear Basque brother :) I know you will be very busy soon due to Admin responsibilities and edits. But if you have some spare time, i need help with translating article Georgia (country) into Basque. Where were you born? All the best and good luck with Rfa. Euskera 14:02, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

My dear Basque brother. Please do not be discouraged by the Rfa negative votes, nobody had only positive vote din their Rfa’s. Please go on, and if you will not be successful this time, wait a while and apply again. It takes time and will. Don’t pay attention to negative comments; in every Rfa I have seen them for all candidates. Give it another try later. Don’t worry about the Basque language, I already contacted some users from Basque Misplaced Pages. Can you please tell me, why there is no article about History of the Basque Land? There is only article about History of Basque people. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Euskera (talk • contribs) 22:21, 10 April 2007 (UTC).

Image:Brannon.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Brannon.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jkelly 22:00, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Your RfA

Hi! I noticed on the RfA page that you were asked some additional questions besides the 3 you were asked at your nomination's start. Perhaps you might like to provide some answers? Anyone can ask any additional questions at an RfA, and answers might help people make decisions. Best, --Shirahadasha 15:58, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Joe, what happened to Basque independence userbox? Euskera 18:59, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

United States Naval Academy

Hello User Joebengo,

I have been working closely with Rear Admiral DeLoach and the Pentagon in a project about Hispanic-American naval officers.

I have some infromation which I believe that may be of interest to you and which if you like you can add to the article.

The article mentions the first African-American and female graduates, but fails to mention the first Hispanic_American.

The first Hispanic-American to graduate from the academy was Commodore Robert F. Lopez, USN * USNA Class of 1879. Born March 31, 1857 in Davenport, Iowa. Admitted to USNA September 29,1874. Appointed from Tennessee, 9th Congressional District. Retired June 30, 1911 with the rank of commodore. Fought at the Battle of Manila Bay with Admiral Dewey. Retired in 1911 but recalled to service during WWI and acted as commandant of Mare Island for a time.Died September 20, 1936 in Alameda, California.

Sources of information: Jennifer Bryan <bryan@usna.edu> 04/11/07; Obituary in NY Times, October 1, 1936 (page 25); NY Times article "Navy Board Retires Fourteen Officers," July 4, 1911 (page 13).

By the way, you have a great article, take care and have a nice day. Tony the Marine 19:51, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Hispanics in the Navy

Joebengo,

I'll let you know when I post my "Hispanic Admirals in the US Navy". I'm waiting for Adm. DeLoach to take a look at it. I'm glad that you applied for the academy, I'm sure that you'll be hearing from them. Tony the Marine 17:39, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Fine. Now try to get the dates straight, 17th vs. 18th, and you should have put the citation next to the death date. Wahkeenah 19:28, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for helping out on the article and putting the info into the bullet form. Much thanks. Now if there was only an easy way to take the http address longitude and latitude into the table. I'm gonna keep looking for something for that tho. MrMacMan 00:02, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Ya, I was curious on the subject and when I found it on Misplaced Pages and saw that it was terribly put together I couldn't leave that article without seriously fixing it.--Joebengo 00:21, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Lope de Aguirre Image

Hi. I was wondering if you would tell me where you found the image of Lope de Aguirre you uploaded. Was it from a book? Thanks in advance. SCRA5071 18:46, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply. Sorry, to bother you again, but I meant whether you knew which book it was from. Sorry I wasn't clear on that. Thank you. SCRA5071 22:06, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
