Hola

Feliz Año Nuevo! I'm sure you miss the fireworks here in Nicaragua =) -- LaNicoya  •Talk•  06:41, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Si, gracias e igualmente. Lastima que no pude ir a Nicaragua :( Y vos, estuviste en Nica? Brusegadi (talk) 08:25, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Si, estoy en Nica ahorita. Haha, aqui es fiesta despues de fiesta, so termina el bacanal. El 2 me voy a Granada a ver las isletas y la ciudad linda. Este fue el primer ano que voy a la Plaza de la Revolucion para el ano nuevo, estuvo lleno pero bien alegre! -- LaNicoya  •Talk•  09:38, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Ivy plus

I really think this should be deleted for being so loosely defined and being entirely without good references. What are your thoughts? cOrneLlrOckEy (talk) 19:17, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I think it fails notability. One thing to do first is to try to find stronger references. If that fails, AfD will be good. Brusegadi (talk) 20:23, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Please see Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Ivy plus. Thanks! cOrneLlrOckEy (talk) 22:00, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Re: Bacanalera

Without a doubt. This will be the 3rd sockpuppet case i will file (when the user begins getting more disruptive). The aggressiveness, POV pushing, and using sources to enter fake information (not to mention the poor spelling and grammar) is instantly recognizable before yours (on my talk page) was regarding the poverty percentage of Panama. The user changed the percentage (without sources; previously sourced by the CIA world factbook). -- LaNicoya  •Talk•  03:34, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, up a couple of points, very happy to see that. I have to agree, but judging from the history (Granada v Leon ) its always been like that and, unfortunately, i think it always will. Politics has always played a huge role in our country, for good or bad.-- LaNicoya  •Talk•  00:25, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Your edit to Panama

You accidentally erased a big portion of the article, so I reverted the change. I hope you understand that in American English (the language that Misplaced Pages tends to use) that "$27.551 billion" and "$27,551 million" are just two ways of writing the same number: 27551000000. Exactly the same. "$27.551 billion" is more normal. It isn't worth reverting over.Kww (talk) 00:02, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I am in a public computer at the time and it does not load pages properly. Sorry about that and thanks for catching it! Also, thanks for clarifying the figures for me. Brusegadi (talk) 00:10, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

re:your question

I just thought that defining homosexuality as "an immoral sexual lifestyle" wasn't so great. I should've known that wouldn't fly over at the Bigot Parade. VanTucky 03:51, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

State of Fear

Please go here Talk:State_of_Fear#This_article_needs_to_be_immediately_marked_as_biased. Thanks. Sagredo 04:44, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the pointer, interesting discussion there. Brusegadi (talk) 06:51, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

thanks for watching that . The new editor probably has a real fast learning curve, too. (sockpuppet). All the changes I made to the lead are justified and well referenced in the science section, so I just moved some of the refs up into the lead. I haven't been watching the GW fight much, been enjoying the tranquility of the graphics lab. Call me (or anybody-check to see who's active) over if you need, if the wacko complains, use the same logic I did. Then if they're stupid enough to take on WMC, Raymond Arritt and Stephen Hudson all at once, they'll get the pounding they deserve. Not enough (non-wacko) people watch that article. It still should have a listing of specific misconceptions and their rebuttals. Keep up the good fight. Sagredo 05:45, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

There is a technical problem on the State of Fear talk page. Part of my comment, and all of your last do not appear, but will do show in a edit window?? Sagredo 06:38, 24 January 2008 (UTC) I saved the missing portion hereUser:Sagredo/Sandbox —Preceding comment was added at 06:43, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

It was a problem with a ref tag. I was weirded out by it. Brusegadi (talk) 23:24, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

An arbitration decision involving you.

A request for arbitration involving you has been proposed. See Misplaced Pages:Requests_for_arbitration#Austrian_economics Zenwhat (talk) 15:23, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, they closed it. Brusegadi (talk) 21:31, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I noticed you edited my part out regarding global warming, saying that it should improve the article. You are really off base, it you read it carefully, it will give you the real cause of global warming, not just a description of symptoms and of their appearance sans their cause. All the other junk there should be deleted and you need to take a look at how the earth's mass accumulation is causing its acceleration, which produces the heat. Wise up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jaymes2 (talk • contribs)

Yeah, find a reliable source that says that and then I'll wise up. Brusegadi (talk) 02:19, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

And we thought Crichton was "wacko!" Sagredo 03:00, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

State of Fear déjà-vu

Hola amigo, feliz 2008. De casualidad cai en ese artículo y que sorpresa. Would you please come back to the State of Fear Talk page. I think the leading section is an outrageous violation of NPOV. Needs cleaning. The controversy should be in the corresponding section. I explain in there my arguments with plenty of details my position.Mariordo (talk) 03:24, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Feliz 2008 a usted! I'll take a look soon. Ciao Brusegadi (talk) 03:30, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for dropping by and commenting on the issue! Mariordo (talk) 14:39, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

No problem. Brusegadi (talk) 16:05, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Billy Joel

Please note that Billy Joel grew up in New York and not in the state of Ohio. Linking the high school he attended to Hicksville High School (Ohio) is incorrect -- the high school he actually attended is contained in the list at List of Long Island public school districts and schools, and does not have a Wikipage unto itself. --MikeVitale 13:17, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh, ok. I thought someone was just removing info since no clear reason was given. Thanks, Brusegadi (talk) 16:04, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Sockpuppet

Suggest you withdraw this. Other than the similarity in name (and it's quite a common name in the English-speaking world) I don't see any correspondence between the two in terms of style or overlapping articles. One is likely American and the other is likely English. Raymond Arritt (talk) 06:50, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

I filed it after seeing them push the same view in similar manner here and here. Brusegadi (talk) 06:55, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Are you sure you've got the right person? Here are the contribs for James2. I don't see any of the pseudo-Einsteinian stuff in his contributions. Raymond Arritt (talk) 07:00, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Raymond, I made a mistake and I know how it happened (I must have added the unsigned template using phonetics and not the proper spelling.) I need a vacation :( Brusegadi (talk) 07:04, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Help with wiki in Spanish

Estimado amigo, recurro a tu experiencia porque no se como resolver un problema de duplicidad en un articulo nuevo que escribi en Misplaced Pages Spanish. Yo cree el articulo Sistemas Inteligentes de Transporte (ITS), pero luego descubri el articulo sobre el mismo tema, solo que el autor uso el titulo en ingles Intelligent Transportation System, por eso no lo encontre cuando hice el search para buscar si ya existia ese tema. En otra ocasion intente algo similar y fue un desastre. Can you handle it? or give me some tips? Yo me encargo despues de unificarlos, de hecho, el leading paragraph ya es bastante parecido en ambos. Muito obrigado cara! Mariordo (talk) 23:06, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

No problem. The best thing to do would be to do a redirect. I have not yet become very familiar with the wiki in Spanish, but there is probably an analogous concept to a "redirect." Bueno, hay dos articulos ahorita. Tome la informacion relevante del articulo titulado en ingles y pasela al titulado en espagnol. Despues vaya al del ingles y borre todo y escriba:

 #REDIRECT ] 

Guarde esa version y con eso basta. Aviseme si le va bien, si no yo en cuanto tenga tiempo lo hago. Suerte! Brusegadi (talk) 07:04, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Gracias por el tip, voy a intentar lo que me recomendaste.Mariordo (talk) 11:54, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Nicaragua

Hey Brusegadi, I was just wondering if you (still) live in Nicaragua in the moment? Splette :) 09:21, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I failed to notice this message previously... Sorry about that. My permanent address is in Nicaragua but lately I have been spending little time at home. Why do you ask? Brusegadi (talk) 04:04, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind, I visited your page. So, you plan to travel? Let me know if you have any questions. Brusegadi (talk) 07:39, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Hehe, you are quick. Yes, I am traveling to Nicaragua next month. I don't think I will need any help, but I was wondering if you would b interested in meeting up for a drink and discussing wiipedia, global warming and so on. That of course also depends on what city you live in and if you have time. You can writeme an email through wikipedia if you want. Cheer, Splette :) 04:11, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Nice catch....
