The link to "information on becoming a member" is not needed, as it is nowhere near official and is a project run by a member of Wikipedia which is prohibited. It has been removed. Taylor 11:53, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hello! Thank you for removing the link, but I hope you notice that I was not the one who put it there. It was there before I started editing it, and I was unsure whether or not it should have been removed. --Migs 12:46, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

José Rizal and Boracay, which you have voted for, have been selected for improvement by the Filipino Wikipedian community. Now we can start collaborating on improving these articles to Featured Article status. See Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines/Featured articles. =) --seav 22:51, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

Pls visit AfD Cyberservices, and see an article created by the same "user" - AfD Philippine Cyberservices Corridor. Pls encourage more well known users to make a vote. I have a suspicion that there will be a flood of posts from anons, and new users in those two AfDs. Thanks. Wikipedia is not for promotion. --Noypi380 11:58, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Nationalism

At first glance, you page and this talk are so impressive. I myself, since I became a lawyer in 1984, I never wore amerkana, just Barong Tagalog. I was lucky to have entered the house of Jose Rizal, in Calamba last ... just visiting your good page ... --Florentino floro (talk) 08:25, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Rebuttal

I have submitted a reply/rebuttal of your unfounded accusations here[1] If you desire to submit counter-evidence regarding your accusations of my mental illness, and noises, inter alia, please do so, there, or you can leave your evidence on my talk page. --Florentino floro (talk) 08:42, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

I, on the other hand, really appreciate your support. maxsch (talk) 20:43, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Lest I be misconstrued, (by way of rebuttal of Migs's stance that I am anti-government), let me state that I am apolitical. I never voted since 1970, more or less. I do not believe in politics. I am not anti-Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. For even if I saw the vision on January 9, 1999, 6:00 of a) global millennium quakes, disasters until 2010, b) several apparitions of Mary and c) the physical hurting of VP GMA, no time frame, I predicted the enthronement of GMA on 2004, and I was a great critic of Jun Lozada. I only write what I see. I hated most, as my spiritual belief, the unseating of PGMA, because of greed, lust for power, etc. by same old politicians. I am not against the present Government but I saw the deaths and illnesses of several incumbent and past magistrates, officers, inter alia, due to God's dire punishment. I am a closed Catholic. Yes, I fought hardly against Nene Pimentel (predicted his pinched nerves surgery) and Koko Pimentel's loss, via Psalm 109. Further, today I contributed 3,653 edits[2] to Wikipedia, and I never used my Gifts of healing and prophecy, bi-location, exorcism, mystical levitation, annihilation, inflicting illnesses, etc., for spiritual cleansing, but not to edit in Wikipedia. This is the first in Wikipedia history that a jobless poor Filipino dwarf judge editor had been accused of "using them as the basis for many of his contributions". I have no prophetic powers but only Gifts. Powers are limited and are developed, while my Gift of the Holy Spirit are infinite, have no bounds, and were/are bestowed upon me versus evil and hypocrisy. I wield these gifts with benevolence and compassion. Take the case of my very own lawyer Rene Saguisag. I did not create that article, but every midnights since I begged him for mercy at Malate Mil Nueve Cientos 2004, I never missed a midnight where I did not recite Psalm 109, for Rene and his family's repentance. I got it on November 8, 2008, after long long hard midnight works. Parenthetically, I prayed not only Fridays but daily for Juan Miguel Zubiri, since I was humiliated by Nene Pimentel, set up and made a beggar, when I asked for job help. I never called Mig's office nor asked for help even I could not find a job until now. It is unjust and unfair if I would be charged with using my Gifts in Wikipedia. I wield these, via Psalm 109 to fight evil, to annihilate those who vilify me. Such is pure self-defense by annihilation up to the 4th generation. Take for example that even if I was hated by many Filipino editors who voted in AFD my 2 articles and some of them are in Vibal and Filnet, I gracefully created Gaspar Vibal and WikiPilipinas, even if I had previously seen the vision of horrible tragedies in Vibal, to come. There is No Exit for Vibal, borrowing Jean Paul Sartre's book. --Florentino floro (talk) 08:29, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

As lawyer/judge, and editor, I took pains in going over the contributions of Migs and I found this: Migs started contributing in Wikipedia on [3] 25 October 2004 with only 3 edits on 2004; on 2005, from February to December 2005, = 188 edits; on 2006, 12 edits, on 2007, 14 edits, and 2008: # 14:55, 21 February 2008 User:Cma‎ (top) # 14:26, 21 February 2008 (hist) (diff) User talk:Beeblbrox [4]; 10 edits feb, # 3, 11 May 2008 (hist) (diff) User talk:Diligent Terrier‎ (re) # 07:13, 11 May 2008 (hist) (diff) User talk:Diligent Terrier‎ (regarding florentino floro...) # 05:56, 17 April 2008 (hist) (diff) User talk:Florentino floro. The foregoing evidence conclusively prove, that: from the time of 21 February 2008, when this user knew me and had contributed, in 2008, there was rarely any contribution than, regarding negatives on my works here. Just sayin and submitting the evidence. I ask therefore: with these few contributions, would it be fair and just to accuse me of all these charges which are bereft of any legal or Wiki merit? --Florentino floro (talk) 08:29, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Nationalism II

Contrary to lies and accusations against me, I am for nationalism. I am the last to call for the ouster of a government. I submit to you proof: a) When I stood for Noli de Castro in S.C. 2004 cases, I fought so hard on the last week of the May 11 elections for PGMA, I changed my prediction of her downfall, b) this VP for Noli de Castro 2004 campaign movement, Mr. Francisco Katibayan III (Catibayan III Francisco G. who met me 4 times, opened his YM to me last month, and emailed me twice), had repeatedly asked me to predict about Noli de Castro's future as Acting President, and PGMA's health. I turned down his bickering. I told him that PGMA will be out when the dwarves decide. Katibayan used me against Loren Legarda but as atheist he attacked my spiritual beliefs. He failed in his promise to instead justly grant me an appointment in DSWD, so that I will spare the Court of dire dwarf deaths. His emails to me are intact as proofs that I defended PGMA; and c) at MetroWalk, I and Sanlakas Cong. JV Bautista talked about prophecies, and he asked me about the downfall of the government. I told him no, since who will sit down? Those that used my prophecies? Please fairly read the articles I created, and my edits, now 3,655; I never used my gifts to contribute to Wikipedia. I admit that I learned PC just last April 2006, but I am learning. I admit also that many were physically moved in far far places when I chat or talk with them, but that is their problem. Many can do that, ask Jaime Licauco - who suffered the Feb. 8, 2008 angioplasty I caused. His email to me is intact. His ingratitude worked to his fall, since Licauco has no spirit guide and is not at all a psychic. He is never mentioned in dwarf kingdom, nobody, yes, nobody. He cannot even inflict a single fever. My chat email is intact, on how a USA multi-decorated officer had been physically moved 4 inches while we were chatting, and his 2 accidents with pics thereafter, would show, that I am not really an important editor or Filipino to waste time upon. I am jobless and live in a dilapidated house rented with begged money. This is the truth. I do not complain to suffer jobless, since I was told by LUIS, the King of kings of spirit guides, that I must, in order to wield the gift of fire and death. I never told a lie, and truth is my life, the light - Lux in Domino. I lectured for hours monologue to Leonardo Quisumbing, Raul M. Gonzalez and 60 hours (1999 - February 10, 2006) to Regino C. Hermosisima, Jr. (on Corazon Aquino]]'s fate and medical surgeries of Renato Corona and 8 other justices. It was not fun for them. Ask Arturo D. Brion if anything I write here is false. What will I gain if I make a joke on all Filipino editors. Let us make Wikipedia a better book for future leaders. --Florentino floro (talk) 08:55, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

User RFC for florentino floro

I have created an RFC for Florentino floro. [7] I would appreciate it if you would take a look. thanks maxsch (talk) 18:37, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. I do think that people look superficially and don't really see the issues, and they then assume that people like you and I are persecuting a poor insane person. Hopefully other editors will actually look at the evidence and realize that we are, in fact, trying to help. maxsch (talk) 20:49, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Template

I came accross this template in the user page request for expanding:

This article lacks information on the importance of the subject matter.
If you are familiar with it, please expand the article, or discuss its significance on the talk page.

Accordingly

I would like to submit links and quotes to support the importance amid links, citations and references. But before I edit the user page, I decide that, even if invited to add so, I want to add this here first. I would like to ask for comment on other editors, and if no comment is received, then I would be glad to add to the user page, as I will GRANT the request of the page editor.

I had been in Davao and Dumaguete since 1954, but I had not really seen much of their forests. My counsel Atty. Gregorio M. Batiller (Ateneo), No. 1 Bar Topn., and Atty. Ma. Victoria Timbangkaya (No. 5 Bar Exams, Silliman University, in the landmark dwarf case are one of the notable geniuses thereat with his topnotch brother Dr. Batiller USA doctor. I wanted to visit their top beaches. My maid lives there in Basakan Panabo.

Some quotations

“ Given the nature of Philippines politics, there was hardly any doubt that Estrada would be pardoned. Despite his conviction, he still wields significant political clout. What is shocking about the pardon is that it came just six weeks after the conviction, and that it was given by the administration that replaced him in the first place. If Estrada's removal was symbolic of our desire for a change for the better, then his pardon is symbolic of the fact that so very little has changed. ”

“ Corruption, in my opinion, is the key issue as many problems are tied to it. It happens on many different levels. The end result is that money does not go where it should - poverty alleviation, education and health care. Accountability is practically non-existent. And you have situations where local politicians use any means to cling to power, including violence. We need a government with the political will and the strong moral compass to pursue a program of ruthless accountability. If there is a shift in the balance, the results could be very interesting indeed. ”

Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Florentino floro

The RfC on this user has been closed. As you were one of the certifiers, I am letting you know that a conslusion has been reached on the page that you may want to read. Wizardman 23:30, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

RfCs don't really have any power in and of themselves. Basically, if florentino fails to follow the recommendations of it, the next step would be either disciplinary measures at WP:AN, or should it come to it, a case at WP:RFAR. I'm hoping it won't come to that, but it may end up tht way. Wizardman 17:14, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

I am hoping this will encourage User:Diligent Terrier to become more involved with his adoptee. I feel like you and I have done a lot to uncover the breadth of floro's problematic tendencies. Even if he does have some misguided defenders, the more experienced and rational editors who become aware of what he does, the more they will see that we are right. I feel like wizardman, in principle, sees the issues but isn't ready to take more serious action, yet. The RFC was starting to languish anyway, maybe closing it is actually a positive step. maxsch (talk) 19:22, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Proposed blackout in protest of RA 10175

Dear Cma,

Greetings!

As a Filipino Wikipedian, I hope you are aware of the passage of Republic Act No. 10175, also known as the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012, which was signed into law by President Benigno Aquino III on September 12, 2012. Currently, there is a discussion on the Tambayan, the noticeboard for Philippines-related topics, about a proposed blackout of the English Wikipedia in the Philippines in order to protest the passage of RA 10175, similar to the blackout against SOPA and PIPA held earlier this year. I feel that your input on the subject will definitely help in the discussion.

Please feel free to participate in the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines#The Cybercrime Prevention Act, and I hope your input will help the Filipino Wikipedia community determine which is the best course of action against this law. Similarly, we hope to get as much input from as many Wikipedians as possible.

Thank you and maraming salamat po!

Kind regards,
