Welcome

Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. I've noticed you made a few changes in the Paraguay and Asunción articles. Are you Paraguayan? If so let me know because Paraguay-related articles need a lot of work in Wikipedia. Regards. Bruno18 19:24, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Greetings

Thank you for your welcome. Yes, I am from Paraguay and I would like to collaborate to improve the quality of the Paraguay's articles. Please let me know where I can help. Mariscal8

Ok, yo tambien soy de Paraguay! Me llamo Bruno y estoy viviendo en USA ahora y la verdad que es lamentable la falta de informacion en los articulos de Paraguay en Wikipedia (practicamente soy el unico que procura agregar informacion sobre Paraguay).

Lo principal seria empezar por lo "basico" y tener un buen articulo sobre Paraguay y la capital Asuncion. Lo ideal seria expandir el articulo hasta que llegue a ser de la misma calidad como por ejemplo el de Brazil o el de Lima (en caso del articulo de Asuncion).

Espero que colabores con lo que puedas, hay muchisimas cosas de las que se puede escribir. Por ejemplo la vez pasada yo hice estos articulos: Paraguayan polka y Guarania, pero lo ideal seria tener mas informacion del pais en si y su geografia y ciudades principales y despues ir creando articulos sobre la cultura, etc. Si tenes cualquier pregunta ode como usar Wikipedia o cualquier otra cosa que quieras decirme escribime en mi pagina de Wikipedia.

Manos a la obra

Gracias Bruno, es un gusto conocerte. Yo estoy viviendo aca en USA tambien. Vi que los articulos de Paraguay estan mal escritos, y voy a ver como mejorarlos. Voy a comenzar con Asuncion y usare el indice de Lima como modelo. Me gusta mucho la geografia y historia, asi que comenzare con esos articulos. Decime una cosa, como uno hace para firmar los mensajes? -Mariscal8

Hola! Para firmar tenes que poner cuatro simbolos de tilde de seguido, o sea estos: ~ . O sea para firmar seria asi:

 ~~~~ 

esos cuatro tildes en donde quieras que aparezca tu firma. Cualquier otra pregunta que tengas sobre el formato de Wikipedia avisame y te ayudo. Por cierto, viendo el articulo de Paraguay en la Wikipedia en espanol nos puede ayudar porque tiene muchisima inforamcion que puede ser traducida a la version de ingles. Este es el articulo en la wiki en espanol: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraguay . Saludos. Bruno18 04:51, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Inquiry about neighbourhoods

Hola, ya cambie los links de los barrios de Asuncion para que no sean de ciudades de otros paises. Voy a buscar informacion sobre los barrios para hacer articulos sobre ellos, si sabes alguna pagina que tenga informacion sobre ellos decime por favor. Saludos y gracias por estar colaborando con los articulos, good job!. Bruno18 16:39, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Locking the Asuncion and Paraguay pages

Hola! Para cerrar una pagina se necesita contactar con un administrador de Wikipedia. Sin embargo creo que no es necesario en estos momentos ya que la pagina no esta siendo vandalizada tan a menudo (y si lo hacen yo revierto los cambios enseguida). Saludos. Bruno18 17:43, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Good job

Buen trabajo, ahora la seccion de historia de Paraguay esta mejor. Lo ideal seria expandir un poco mas esa seccion como tienen los otros paises de Sudamerica. Cuando tenga tiempo (estoy de examenes) voy a hacerlo (no solo la seccion de historia, sino la de cultura, geografia, etc.). La Wikipedia en espanol tiene un articulo bastante completo de Paraguay, de ahi voy a ir sacando las cosas mas importantes y traducirlas: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraguay . Saludos.

Paraguay St.

Sorry. I'm aware that Paraguay (the country) is more important thatn Paraguay St., Palermo, Buenos Aires, Argentina. That's why I left the 'Paraguay' article with that name, and added just the 'For other uses, see Paraguay (desambiguation)'. It's not that I called the desambiguation page 'Paraguay', if you typed in the search the word 'Paraguay' you'll get to the country, not the street nor the desambiaguation page. Where can I find the rules for desambiguation pages? I think that if there are AT LEAST two things with the same name, there HAS to be a desambiguation page. Of course, if one of them is clearly MORE IMPORTANT, then the main article has to be called that way, but you have to add the 'For other uses, see desambiguation page'. I am wrong?

I understand your point of view, by I still think there should be a disambiguation page (although is obvious for me that 'Paraguay' should be the main article). I don't know if there is any written rule about disambiguation pages, but for example, look on the Spain page: it has a disambiguation page that leads to a jazz composition named 'Spain' and to an underground cartoonist. England, has a disambiguation page that leads to an austronaut called Anthony England! Even the United States page has a disambiguation page. I think you should try to relax and don't think that adding a link to a disambiguation page in the article of your country is minimizing the importance of the article. Besides, as a paraguayan, you should be interested in knowing all about the streets called Paraguay, all around the world.

Those are streets from Asunción, Paraguay? Look, Argentina already has a disambiguation page, you can add a link to the article "República Argentina Avenue" there, if you want to create that article. The same with Brazil, it already has a link to a disambiguation page. Of course, if you want to add the articles, I would encourage you. I didn't know there was an avenue called "República Argentina"!

You changed the subject of discussion. First, you said it didn't qualify for a disambiguation page. Now you say it doesn't qualify for an article. About the disambiguation page, look, somebody worked on that: [[1]]. You still think there shouldn't be a link to the disambiguation page in the Paraguay article now?

And about the qualification for an article. You say: "Should every street on the planet receive a wikipedia article? Just imagine how chaotic it would be!". It won't be caothic, it will be complete. I mean, if there is a category called Streets and squares of Buenos Aires, another one called Streets and squares of Madrid... I assume that the articles on streets or squares are relevant. Besides, it's not "an obscure, random street", and Borges doesn't just mentions it: he situates there the mythical founding of Buenos Aires, in one of the most classic poems in Argentine literature. Besides, nobody proposed the Paraguay St. article for deletion, something that already happened to me in other occasions. So I asume the article IS relevant.
