LiberalismI noticed that you restored an edit to the Liberalism article that is under discussion at Talk:Liberalism#Changes to the lead. It would be helpful if you would join this discussion. The Four Deuces (talk) 16:25, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
Re: Latin AmericaThanks for your caution. It is ironic, however, that the reverting editors are reverting without comment or providing a substantial reason, so it makes little sense to discuss when they will not expand as to why. It is clear that they are doing so due to incomplete English comprehension, sociopolitical POV pushing, ignorance, or any-all of the above. Besides, much of the content in that recently added section is unsourced, so perhaps it should be done away with anyway. 69.158.58.56 (talk) 18:49, 18 September 2009 (UTC) Chilean Fiestas PatriasThanks for the comment. I'll be adding material from the Chilean entry throughout the day (I just added the section on Food and Fondas) and I appreciate your review of the new content. Also, there aren't any citations in the original article. If you have time to find citations for the article, that would be great. RG (talk) 19:13, 18 September 2009 (UTC) Clilean articlesFirst, Allende's presidency ended with his suicide, not the coupe.Second, Pinochet's government was confirmed democratically before failing in the later plebiscite.

PinochetHey, nice work with the Pinochet article, *maybe* we could use those references for the spanish wiki article? Please answer in my talk page, I don't watch the enwiki often, thanks.--Kmaster (talk) 02:28, 21 September 2009 (UTC) Pinochet referencesSomeone posted that you can't do what you want to, if you didn't go back there after than discouraging advice, I wanted you to know I have a solution, let me know if this helps. Here's an example I just worked with the first paragraph of the Pinochet article. The word "fascist" had eight references. I used the new citation style as documented in wp:LDR, and separated each of the references by a line feed. (I also converted the website references to the proper citation style, although I don't know whether the publisher of Google Books references should be Google Book or the publisher of the book). It isn't beautiful, but it removes the ugliness from the main text, and makes it reasonably clear that the citation is made up of multiple references. I also added bullet points—does that add or detract?--SPhilbrickT 13:06, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
Please stop revertingYou have convinced me. Such removal may constitute vandalism. You have fought hard to convince me, and now see to be backing off. What gives?--Die4Dixie (talk) 13:35, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
PinochetThanks very much, I might do that (re: reporting Die4Dixie). Very good work, BTW, on the Pinochet article. Frank Pais (talk) 15:17, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
Chile under Allende and Chile under PinochetHello, Im thinking in the possibility of renaming these articles to "Unidad Popular government" (or "Chile during the Unidad Popular governmnet" or something similar) and "Military government (Chile)" or something similar because I believe the present names on these articles put to much emphasis on the figures of Allende and Pinochet and does not reflect the fact that both were part of larger political structures. "Chile under Allende" sounds like if Allende was behind all policies and actions of his government, while in fact the UP goverment was born from a broad social base and ground level politcal activism rathern than from top to bottom. With so many social movement being affiliated or behind the government it is misleading to say Chile under Allende. The same applies to Chile under Pinochet, Pinochet was never "a personalist" like (excuse me the comparisons) Stalin, Castro or Perón. Pinochet did not had absolute power over government by him self, rather the junta ruled the country. Of course Pinochet was the "heaviest one" there but to atribute everything to him is wrong, many Chicago boys for example were behind the so famous economic policies of the government rather than Pinochet. If we see the Spanish wikipedia they have and article called Régimen Militar rather than Gobierno de Pinochet. Well, Im asking about your opinion because I suspect a proposal to move it could cause a large debate.Dentren | Talk 16:57, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
Hello LikeminasI'm currently taking a break from anything related to Keysanger. I can't stand the lad. If I ever see him in person, well, let's just say he better hope to never wander into my sight. lol. Like I told you before, I was truly interested in improving the War of the Pacific article. I wanted to present all point of views in the matter (Chilean, Peruvian, and Bolivian), and also the international views of other countries across the globe. I was actually interested in all of the information we ended up bringing to the article, particularly the information I found on Great Britain and the information that you found about the United States (Isn't it amazing how these 2 countries manipulated Peru and Chile to destroy each other?). It was quite a productive competition (One side brought their information, the other side brought more information). Now, the article is a disaster. Keysanger has essentially, and pardon my language, "raped" the article. It's really a shame. All your information, my information, and even the information of Arafael has been twisted or eliminated. I don't want to see that article again as it disgusts me. It's almost as if we had all built this house from the bottom, and suddenly one person comes along and completely changes it to their liking. It's not fair; but there's not much that can be done. Anyways, now I'm focusing on my studies again. I'll soon be getting my degrees in history and economics in a few years. I'm still editing Wikipedia from time to time, but my focus is by now only on sports (football mainly) and a few articles related to Peru. I hope to see you around Wikipedia again, and if you need any help feel free to contact me. Best Regards.--$%MarshalN20%$ (talk) 00:51, 24 September 2009 (UTC) Frank Pais.I saw your recent pots at the user´s talk. So that you not be operating unde any misunderstanding. The problem was not with his beliefs; but rather, who he actually is that created the conflict of interest. As is his right, he has chosen to vanish rather than reveal publically the egregious nature of his policy violations. He did not want to be exposed by arbcom, as he knew he had gamed the system and abused the project and been more than disruptive. He was destructive. Had he returned, he would have likely been banned. Everyone who agrees with you is not a good editor. To think so is a lgical fallicy. Now that the disruption is gone, perhaps we can strt anew at pinochet in a more collegial way. I hope you will consider this.--Die4Dixie (talk) 21:26, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
Study on Argentine Amerindian admixtureGreetings, I hate to bring up Argentina's ethnic composition (a never ending drama), but do you know of any conclusions made for the inclusion/exclusion of the Amerindian admixture from the Clarin study? I've re-added it just recently, but it's been removed by two different users (one of course Fercho who backpedaled)- They wrote that they were "Editing section per consensus decision". I can't find a consenus... Dúnadan made very good arguments, but those against its inclusion have yet to do so - Yet they seem to be the "end all". Do you know where I might find the "consensus" if there is one? How would I go about putting it back in? I think it warrants inclusion... C.Kent87 (talk) 07:25, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
DiferenciasHola, al parecer eres chileno por ende te escribiré este párrafo en español. Creo que es hora de sentarnos a discutir dejar de revertirnos, mi deseo es contribuir de la mejor manera a la Wikipedia, si ves mis ediciones siempre respeto las fuentes y discuto mis cambios, pero no puedes decir que uso títeres o cosas por el estilo, además títeres son los que se registran con muchas cuentas para vandalizar, como puedes ver esta es mi cuenta y no creo ser un vándalo, al contrario siempre actuó de buena fe, saludos.--Kusamanic (talk) 21:14, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

I opened an sock poppet investigation against him. Please, go there:[2] Opinoso (talk) 18:29, 11 November 2009 (UTC) Warning OpinosoJust to let you know that Opinoso is not Latin American. He is a biased non Latin American who has become the dictator of Brazilian related subjects, as well as other Latin American subjects, he may even work for a foreign government or a foreign agency. As a fellow Latin American, a Brazilian, I know it is not relevant to us at all whether Chileans view themselves as White or whatever. Biased non Latin Americans project all their racialist agendas at Latin American topics, which is a shame. Saludos Grenzer22 —Preceding undated comment added 21:49, 11 November 2009 (UTC). ChileWhat do you mean with "false information"? All the informations are directly taken from the book by Darcy Ribeiro. By the way, I already re-wrote what is written in the book in the talk page of article Chilean people. And yes, Ribeiro describes Chile as a new people and a Mestizo country, and Ribeiro does not deny that: "(...) the truth is that the Chilean people are a "new people", the result of mixing of the Spanish with the Amerindian. Their origin is the Mapuche Indian. Mestizos from this mixture, absorbing, in turn, more Indian blood because of mestizo-Amerindian marriage, were the ones who molded the fundamental genetic heritage of the Chilean people(...)" "Chile has never received European contingents in large proportions that would absorb indigenous genetic content or socially overwhelm it, in a condition of inferior caste, under an avalanche of immigrants." Since you did not read the book (neither the talk page), how can you say I am using "false informations"? Your behaviour is the one leading a block. I'm not obsessed with the subject. I'm obsessed with the reality of Chile, not shown in that article. Be more respectfull and civil. Opinoso (talk) 18:03, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

I would like to add something more: he only use this book witten by Darcy Ribeiro. It's some kind of bible to him. The bad news? He fabricates information that is not found in it. He did that with the book and with other sources. See here. Not only that, its quite common to him to take a passage from a book and take it off from its true meaning only to prove his point. And please, don't ask me why he has not been blocked forever so far. This, and the meaning of life are two questions that no one can answer. --Lecen (talk) 21:06, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
Chilean peopleHello, I saw you was involved in the Chilean people article. Would you like to take a look at the discussion being developed there now? Dentren | Talk 18:52, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
Chilean people1_Likeminas where are the sources of your writing?, You also added information without references as the user: Opinoso. 2_The most important are genetic studies, after the formation of Chile in its history. 3_It's rude to change the whole basis of an article, when you're trying to reach a consensus. 4_So back to the original information of the article, you can argue the case with an administrator of Wikipedia. It is also responsible to stop the vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.36.24.47 (talk) 00:57, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
