Your GA nomination of Benjamín Galván Gómez

The article Benjamín Galván Gómez you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Benjamín Galván Gómez for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.

You may wish to comment

I have listed you as the updater for the 2014 Iguala mass kidnapping at In The News. You may wish to comment there. μηδείς (talk) 17:45, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

  • Thank you very much, μηδείς. I was only planning to nominate the article if the students were found (alive or dead), but seeing how the international press has picked up the story, I think it is a good idea to do it now too. Do you think the article can be nominated again if the status of the students is confirmed? ComputerJA (☎ • ✎) 18:09, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
    • Some crimes are never nominated, and some only after conviction and sentencing. Given that the pair were fugitives and the nature of the crime I think now is the best chance at posting. If bodies are identified soon then we would just update the blurb. If they are identified in two weeks a second nomination would be unlikely. There is no policy, it depends on news coverage and the mood of he desk. If the bodies are found years from now then another nomination might work. You might compare the nomination history of Oscar Pistorius who was only listed after he was convicted. But he was not a fugitive, and many Mexican fugitives have been posted before. μηδείς (talk) 18:20, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Te dejé un par de mensajes con fuentes que puedes utilizar para ampliar el artículo. Aquí puedes ver una entrevista a la periodista Anabel Hernández, se trata de los resultados de "un trabajo realizado con el apoyo del Programa de Periodismo de Investigación de la Universidad de California en Berkeley con base en testimonios, videos, informes inéditos y declaraciones judiciales muestra que la Policía Federal (PF) participó activa y directamente en el atentado". Esta noticia indica que "policías federales y militares participaron en el ataque a normalistas". El reportaje salió el sábado pasado en la revista Proceso. Saludos.

The Fight to Save Juárez

Thanks for helping the article!

Are you interested in starting a Spanish version of The Fight to Save Juárez? I have written articles on Latin America-related books, and they have been translated into Spanish by other Wikipedians: The Japanese in Latin America and New Worlds, New Lives.

Also, are you interested in expanding Spanish-language articles about Texas politics such as es:Departamento de Justicia Criminal de Texas? (from Texas Department of Criminal Justice), or creating new ones about Texas culture such as Paño? WhisperToMe (talk) 04:56, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

  • @WhisperToMe: Thank you for creating the article! I haven't read the book myself but I have free access to it at my school's library catalog. Hopefully I can read it once I finish the ones I checked out for the winter break already. :-)
In all honesty, I'll have to decline your request for now. I am not very active on Spanish Wikipedia because I've grown in disappointment with other editors there. I've encountered many differences with some of them, especially regarding citations (not to mention the fact that some have accused me of working for the government and being a deletionist—when, in fact, I delete information after I research it and see that there are no sources backing what it states). Anyhow, when I get a hold of the book and finish it, I'll consider expanding the article and creating one in Spanish too. It's on my Watchlist for now on, though. Thanks for stopping by, happy holidays! ComputerJA (☎ • ✎) 17:53, 23 December 2014 (UTC)

Edit Request for Angelica Fuentes Wikipedia Page

Hi, I saw you had an interest in all things related to Mexico, and wanted to see if you could look over an edit request I've put on the Angelica Fuentes English Wikipedia page. It's an extensive edit, but includes information about her influence in Mexico and regional and global philanthropy. Hope you can consider it.

vandalising the Mexican Drug War

Hi, i've been noticing some users vandalising the main article of the Mexican Drug War (since the first days february).

I think you might like to give it a look.

Also, congrats for the great work on the Mexico related articles.

  • Hey, thanks for visiting my talkpage. I saw the history log of the article. I think you're right about the neutrality box; you guys should settle your differences on the talkpage and see what can be done. I've been pretty lazy with the Mexican Drug War article, so thank you for keeping an eye on it. I'll be around and supervising the discussion if you guys are down for it. Thanks, ComputerJA (☎ • ✎) 19:30, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

re Mexican Drug

I have absolutely no special interest in the Mexican Drug War and simply stumbled upon it by accident. But the edits in question are clear in violation or WP:OR. Your assertion that he provided sources is irrelevant. From WP:OR: This includes any analysis or synthesis of published material that serves to reach or imply a conclusion not stated by the sources. To demonstrate that you are not adding OR, you must be able to cite reliable, published sources that are directly related to the topic of the article, and directly support the material being presented. (This policy of no original research does not apply to talk pages.)

CJK (talk) 20:24, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

  • I see bias in your edit, (and many other articles you edit), i think you are doing it more in a pro-American stand, than in an attempt to improve wikipedia's reliability.
  • I´m adding Controversial facts under the controversy section.

No one "implies a conclusion". The information is relevant, it points to reliable sources and news articles, please read the references.

  • Also read this articles (and its references):

CIA drug trafficking

Gulf Cartel#Corruption_in_the_United_States

Guadalajara Cartel#Collaboration_with_the_CIA_and_DFS

ATF gunwalking scandal

  • The direct or indirect support of Mexican and U.S. officials to Drug Cartels is relevant. The fact is controversial? Yes, but it's not an "original research", the articles an references are there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.160.141.229 (talk) 15:11, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

You seem not to have looked closely at my edits, I have been quite critical of certain aspects my country's actions in articles related to both World War II and the American Revolution. The problem is that your assertion The direct or indirect support of Mexican and U.S. officials to Drug Cartels is relevant is purely original research on your part and most of your source actually predate the war! WP:OR clearly states that users cannot use facts A or B to support conclusion C. You would need a reliable source related to the war in question that explicitly states that U.S. is deliberately supporting the drug cartels in question.

While Cain is a very proud Mexican man, his heritage is not relative to his notability. His notability is being one of the best mixed martial artists in the world where nationality is relevant, not ethnicity. I will be removing it once again.

Hi, ComputerJA. Regarding this edit, I'm having trouble figuring out how you found the Wayback link. When I put this link in the search window at the top, I get this result. Do you know if I need to sign in to use archive.org? Thanks! - Location (talk) 15:26, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

  • @Location: Hello. You don't need to sign in. You're doing everything right so far. After getting the result that you got, click on any of the dates when the link was archived. In 2013, for example, the link was archived in June 15. If you click that you'll get a live view of the page on that exact date (however, the link was already dead when that person archived it). What I always do is go back a few more years. If you click in 2001 (see here), go to June 20 or any other date with the circle and click it. The link should be there. You can check the source in other years too. Let me know if you did not understand or need more help! ComputerJA (☎ • ✎)

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.

Jaoquin El Chapo Guzmán

Hello JA I was wondering if you can revert El Chapo Guzman's article back to Joaquín Guzmán Lorea. he is referred by his full name by Pena Nieto and most links have him listed this way. I do not know why someone reverted it. it was better the way it was in my humble opinion. Thank you. --Sc30002001 (talk) 21:08, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

  • @Sc30002001: The reason why the government doesn't refer to El Chapo by his nickname is because they do not want to glorify criminals. ALL media outlets literally refer to him as Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán or at least mention his nickname, expect for government sources. I believe his alias should be included. If you compare the results in Google, the one with his alias has more than the one you suggested. I don't think a title move requires a discussion when this is clearly a no-brainer.

Latin American 10,000 Challenge invite

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 NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 00:30, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
