Re:Puerto Rico

Hi. I see you have edited the Puerto Rico article and I see you have a keen interest in Lusitan heritage. I welcome you to bring your knowledge over to the Puerto Rico WikiProject and contribute there. Maybe you could write an article on Lusitan inmigration/influence on Puerto Rico. See you around. Fell free to contact me at my talk page. Joelito 14:28, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello

Is there a place of picadores at Portuguese bullfighting? If there is one please add some information on this in the article Bullfighting. Best regards. Behemoth 18:25, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Dear Lusitano Transmontano, please know that I am not trying to flame anything. I supplied some important contributions to the article, especially about Spanish-style bullfighting and my effort is only to keep this article as an exemplary one. I can agree with you that Portuguese bullfighting is neglected and the sections of the article should be improved in regard to Portuguese bullfighting. But I think this should be done in a "decent" way, within the entirety of the article. For example, the horses part was an important one for I know that Portuguese bullfighting is conceived largely as an equestrian event. However, as I mentioned before, it was only about horse breeds, etc. If I had the access to necessary information, I would volunteer for improvement of the part about equestrian nature of Portuguese bullfighting. I did not mean to omit this aspect but mine was merely a concern for the sake of the article. Best Regards. Behemoth 18:37, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Can you please tell me what do you think of these recent edits? [1] Also, can you recommend me some good info sites on Portuguese bullfighting, preferrably in English but may also be in French or German. You see, I don't know that much about Portuguese bullfighting. I watched one long ago on TV but I can hardly remember the details. Thanks in advance. Behemoth 14:07, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Thank you

Now, everything is much more confusing. Portuguese section in the article used to be merely a copy & paste from the Rancho Cardoso website, a situation that did not make sense. I wished that with newer edits it would be clarified but what happened is the contrary. At a Portuguese bullfight, there are riders, bandarilheiros, forcados, matadores and also (as this website claims [2]) picadoros. I came to think that Portuguese bullfighting does have no rules and conventions at all! Can you please tell me how many types of different events are collectively named as corrida in Portugal? Also, let's begin with the name of the final act (I also began to have a doubt whether it is the final act, after I learned about the bandarilha "estocada" of matadores); is it pega de touros, pega de cara(s) or is the act itself also properly named forcados? Ciao! Behemoth 18:14, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi From Ranch Cardoso

Hello, I am the Webmistress and owner of Ranch Cardoso.... Bloodless Bullfighting Horses and Bloodless Bullfights in California, Portuguese Style.

I've been reading a few of your dialogues and found it very interesting. I am going to start a whole new section on Wikipedia just for Portuguese Style bullfighting as I agree that it should be on its own. It will be under "Bloodless Bullfighting" as that is what it is. Although the California version is just a tad different from the one in mainland Portugal.

I too am trying to do a lot of research and documenting as much information I can get as to the real deal of Portuguese style bullfighting. The big difference is that in the Classic Spanish style bullfighting, the end result is the bull actually getting killed. There is no kill in Portuguese style, especially in California.

On our website, you will see videos of Cavaleiros, Matadors, Forcados, and Ganadarias.... and images too. I try to convey the message via the videos because it is so much easier rather than trying to commentate on an event.

Our site is purely to promote and increase the awareness of Portuguese Style Bloodless bullfights, as well as our beautiful bullfighting horses. Most of the time, when someone talks about horses, it's usually relating to a race horse, dressage, show horse, etc, etc.... anything else other than a bullfighting horse. What's sad is that if anyone gets wind of a bullfighting horse, they only refer to them as the horse being used by the picadors in a Spanish style bullfights. These are the guys who poke at the bulls and will sometimes get knocked down by the bulls too.

Anyways, I'd love it if you can contribute and help out with these articles and would love to finally have a more definitive description for our website as well.

Let me know what you guys think. Here is our website.... http://ranchcardoso.biz and our forum is http://ranchcardoso.biz/rcForum/

I would love more people's input as I feel that other's views are so important as well.

You can send me an email here.... webmistress@ranchcardoso.biz

Take care! --Webmistress Diva 03:37, 6 June 2006 (UTC) Bloodless Bullfighting @ Ranch Cardoso

Hello Again

I started the article for Bloodless Bullfighting, but someone wrote that it needs to be wikified and I need to follow a certain guideline.

I never had to do that before. Can you or someone help me put it the way it's suppose to be.

Thanks a million! --Webmistress Diva 05:08, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

Os Lusíadas

I translated the portuguese article of the Lusiads, but it seems that some parts aren't very neutral. If you can (and want to), give it a look and make ir more neutral. Cheers. Obrigado.

WikiProject Portugal

We'd appreciate if you had the time to join and help out Wikipedia:WikiProject Portugal. Portugal articles are in serious need of avaliation, updating and improving.--Saoshyant ^{talk / contribs} (I don't like Wikipedophiles) 17:09, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry Saoshyant, this comes late but I don't have much time and even if I did I don't have the patience or temperament for Wikipedia. I need my own website, and for me contributing to Wikipedia has become a waste of time. I don't like that many people here with their phoniness and maybe I am a little arrogant when I say this but I think many are pseudo-intellectuals who lack good logic and are full of ulterior motives even when they seem straight laced - as opposed to "Wikipedophiles" who are disruptive but at least with them you can tell right away. They use Wiki rules the way sleazy lawyers use procedure to win in court and the last thing I need is for some Wiki-stupid ass to bang the gavel without a trial and makes bold and arrogant undoes and edits as if they are the judge and the jury. I especially won't tolerate this on articles that I start. I can write them for myself and put them on my own real estate where they will be safe from these bozos. But good luck to you anyway.
