Welcome!

File:Sephiroth.gif Hello, Ojota, Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my talk page.
Additional tips:
Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:
  • If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
  • Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
  • You might want to add yourself to the New User Log.
  • If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language.
Happy editing!

Spanish Translation of the Week

Hi! Thank you for your edit on the AoC page. You might be interested to know about the changes that will occur in the near future. Currently there's a lot of discussion and planning regarding the cleanup of that page. How does this affect you? It is very likely that all entries in the "various countries" section will be deleted if they do not have proper supporting citations. If you have the time and resources it would be wonderful if you could add references to the appropriate laws to support your edit (even if they are in Spanish/Portugese). That way it will survive the cull and Wikipedia will be all the better. Cheers! Monotonehell 11:58, 9 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

O.k., I've just added them. I've put a link showing the Argentine Penal Code, and have cited the article numbers. The Penal Code text is in Spanish, but I hope that helps anyway. Cheers --Ojota 06:10, 13 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Universidad de Belgrano

Che, te parece proponer el borrado del articulo? Las Universidades tienen todas su articulo, argentinas y extrangeras, buenas y malas. De ultima, fijate de editar el articulo si te parece que esta escrito en un tono que no corresponde. --Mariano(t/c) 18:21, 9 March 2007 (UTC)Reply


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:UBA.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:UBA.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 10:14, 21 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

o.k., I've added a fair use rationale. --Ojota (talk) 00:07, 22 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Capital punishment

edit

You made a change to the number of states with certain laws on the death penalty but did not mention the basis for this change. Has some country's law recently changed? Rmhermen (talk) 13:39, 30 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yes. The military penal code was annuled in 2007, so the argentine law has been changed. Now the death penalty is totally abolished in Argentina. (I though I had put the reference in the article. I'm checking it right now) Greetings. --Ojota (talk) 02:55, 31 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
Here is the reference[1]
edit

Hi Ojota,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

  • Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
  • It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
  • Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.
  • I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.
2. If you're a law student,
(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)
3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Wikimedia Stories Project

edit

Aloha!

My name is Victor and I work with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. We're chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade new people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I find stories that drive our annual fundraising efforts. It's important to convey the incredible diversity of people who've come to rely upon Wikipedia every day.

I'd really like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia.

I will be in Buenos Aires from the 10th - 11th of March 2012.

I'm hoping you will elaborate on your story with me. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project!

Thank you,

Victor Grigas

File permission problem with File:Ingenieria UBA.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Ingenieria UBA.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

Proposed deletion of Carrier selection codes in Chile

edit
 

The article Carrier selection codes in Chile has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced and unecessary as we have Telephone numbers in Chile

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
