Semi-Retired

Hello everyone! Since I am a college student, I am now done with the easy core classes and now starting with the classes for my major. The work is now piling up on me, and now I don't have time to contribute to Wikipedia. I will continue to contribute, but only in my spare time. (like Today (January 31, 2009)) It was fun while it lasted. Ciao! --Lehoiberri (talk) 19:44, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

I didn't forget the Argentine Jews

edit

Hello, Lehoiberri. Thanks for the complimment. I'm Pablo Zeta from Argentina, the one who is rebuilding "White Argentine". I saw your interventions in the talk page of the article, and you defended the real -although decreasing- majority of Whites Argentines with strong evidence. If I am not wrong, your mother is a countrywoman of mine, isn't she?

I just wanted to tell you that I didn't forget the Argentine Jews: I already mentioned them in the History section (In the great immigratory wave in general, and Jacobo Timmerman as a victim of the military dictatorship), and in the Culture/Music/Folklore section. I also added them in the "See also" section at the bottom. In the Entertainment section they will have a very special mention (Tato Bores' photo is already inserted); and I plan to add another section named "Journalism" where they will also appear. You are invited to help me with more observations like this or any data you may provide.--Pablozeta (talk) 19:30, 7 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

White Argentine in Spanish

edit

Me again, Lehoiberri: A few months ago, I translated the shorter version of White Argentine to Spanish, and it was harshly criticized and considered "racist" by the people of that WP. There was a deletion consult, and it was deleted. Here is the link to the arguments exposed during the consult: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Consultas_de_borrado/Argentino_blanco. I made the mistake of writing the word "blanco" in the title. When I finish rebuilding this article in English, I plan to offer it again to be translated for the Wikipedia in Spanish. When that happens, I will ask for your support in an eventual restoration consult -if you agree with the contents, of course-. Thanks for your attention.--Pablozeta (talk) 21:32, 7 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Propuesta para pedir modificación de la política sobre BPV, pero todos juntos.

edit

Hola gente: Dadas las recientes y actuales guerras de ediciones que se han desatado en los artículos White Argentine, White Mexican, White Latin American y otros similares, debido a la modificación de la ´política sobre biografía de personas vivas concerniente a etnicidad -que los usuarios Andy the Grump y GiovBag quieren implementar a rajatabla en todos los artículos- propongo:

Solicitar en el Noticeboard correspondiente -aún no sé cuál sería, pero seguro que hay uno- que se revean los alcances de tal política. Creo que todos estaremos de acuerdo que nadie podría afirmar "Ronald Reagan era un Afro-estadounidense" porque tal afirmación salta a la vista como falsa. O también que nadie podría afirmar "Juan Manuel Fangio era de ascendencia croata" cuando es bien sabido que sus padres eran italianos. Pero creo que debe ser revisado que no se pueda categorizar a una persona como "blanco" cuando esté bien referenciada su ascendencia europea y comprobado con una fotografía su fenotipo caucásico.

Bueno, contáctenme a ver que les parece esta propuesta. De ser positiva su respuesta, debemos hacerla todos juntos, para que tenga más fuerza. Gracias por su atención.--Pablozeta (talk) 22:54, 27 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Defense of White Argentine

edit

Hi, sorry to bother you, but Andy the Grump and other user want to move for deletion of White Argentine. Please, if you agree that it should not be deleted, add your comment in the article's talk page. Thanks for your attention and help.--Pablozeta (talk) 02:51, 1 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Avoid the Deletion of White Argentine

edit

If you agree that it should not be deleted, add your arguments here.--~~

Thanks for your support, and goodbye... for now.

edit

I sincerely thank your for your support in defense of White Argentine, but it was not enough. This site is invaded by intelectualoid scum (Andy the Grump, GiovBag, etc.) so I'll move for greener pastures. I'll concentrate my efforts in my own website Razas del Mundo, and I won't waste them here where they are not considered valuable. Thanks for everything, you have made my Wiki-experience a little less forgettable.--Pablozeta (talk) 02:38, 11 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
