Nice work on Economy of Venezuela. bobrayner (talk) 18:29, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Would you consider improving some other, related articles? Let me know if you need help with anything. bobrayner (talk) 16:52, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

	For your outstanding work in the 2014 Venezuelan Protests article. Jamez42 (talk) 02:42, 12 April 2014 (UTC)

Since the start of the 2014 Venezuelan protests, you have tirelessly helped to improve its article, have done a marvelous work and made over 800 edits (and counting!). I reward you with this barnstar two months after the Youth Day in Venezuela. Congratulations, you deserve it!. --Jamez42 (talk) 02:49, 12 April 2014 (UTC)

Leopoldo Lopez

I recently noticed an egregious BLP violation on the Czech page of Leopoldo López found here. The content violates Wikipedia's BLP policy and the source they are using is far from reliable. I tried fixing it but I was quickly reverted. Do you think you could help me out in trying to remove this information? I noticed you contributed significantly to Leopoldo Lopez's English page so I decided to come to you for help. Thank you in advance! Hope to hear back soon. 66.215.147.124 (talk) 23:50, 14 April 2014 (UTC)

I can take a look but I have to warn you about canvassing. I will add information about him to the page since there isn't much.--ZiaLater (talk) 00:59, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

Venezuelan protests

Hi, I see that you are working at the "2014 Venezuelan protests" page with a focus on cooperation and a non-confrontational approach. Good for that. Are you pro-oposition or chavista? Or neither? I wish I could contribute more to the page but the article is very big, and I like to focus more on elections than anything else. --yeah_93 (talk) 17:53, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

Welcome to the article! The article has had a lot of disputes so I try to keep things as neutral as possible. I see benefits from both positions. I have a lot of sources from what people claim are "opposition sources" but most of those sources are just for the timeline. In the case of Chavez, he did a lot of good things for the people but a lot of things went wrong during his presidency too. We're human and we aren't perfect. Enough of my spiel...

If you want to contribute to elections just look at the elections section in the article. It could use a little more if you compare it to the economic section. If you want to broaden your use of sources I suggest that you use Google Chrome as it will roughly translate what is said in Spanish sources. If you want to focus on more elections in Venezuela, I suggest that you look at the Hugo Chavez article since it seems like a lot of stuff is missing there. Again, welcome to the article and if you need any more help just ask!--ZiaLater (talk) 19:34, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm unsure what SPA means. But I noticed you immediately redid my edits. One of them made a claim with no support in the referenced citation. That's why I reworded it. The line I deleted was pure speculation and didn't add anything to the facts of the constituent assembly. I know you don't want to be called slanted, I would not do that because I dont know you. I just think that as it looks right now I"m only seeing US sources and opposition friendly positions. Toka248 (User talk:Toka248#top|talk]]) 07:49, 30 July 2017

Podemos leaders

Don't worry; you at least try to make constructive edits, not like the occasional troll trying to unilaterally modify parties' ideologies on their respective articles because they feel like it. As about Podemos, really the only "leader" as of now is Pablo Iglesias as Secretary-General. There is no "President" or "Spokeperson" offices as in other parties, nor any other relevant office being worth mentioned in the infobox. Of course, there is the "founder" option, but there are just too many to fit the infobox: Pablo Iglesias, Iñigo Errejón, Carolina Bescansa, Juan Carlos Monedero, Luis Alegre, Tania González, Teresa Rodríguez, etc. The Spanish article also does it this way, mentioning only Pablo Iglesias as Secretary-General. Cheers. Impru20 (talk) 17:37, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Ok, thank you. You're doing a good job at keeping the article in line.--ZiaLater (talk) 17:39, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Podemos graph

Oops, sorry, I missed the message. Well, I don't think we should use a different graph, because it could hide useful data that would be interesting to get the whole picture. It's not the same for the graph to start in April 2014, when PP was at ~30% and PSOE at ~25% (with IU and UPyD around ~15% and ~10%, respectively) that it to start from 2011. Keep in mind that Podemos' rise came as a result of PP and PSOE's erosion, because of PP's government management and PSOE's inability to effectively build a credible opposition to it, and that's a situation that has built up since the last general election to now.

Btw, it is also a lot simpler to keep updating just one graph that doing it with two. Impru20 (talk) 10:46, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

@Impru20:Ok, sounds good. I just wanted to show the actual rise of Podemos but I guess your explanation helps. I'll keep the file in case popularity for Podemos changes so we could still show the "rise" in that particular section. Thanks for replying!--ZiaLater (talk) 22:15, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Venezuela money for Bolívar Article

Hi ZiaLater, I uploaded to my personal gallery a low size scanned version, however, i dont know how upload it here under fair use, could you help me? [1]. thanks --The_Photographer (talk) 01:12, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

@The Photographer:They look very nice and thanks for saving me a couple of minutes of scanning since I was missing one. Give me a few minutes and I'll guide you through it.--ZiaLater (talk) 01:16, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

@The Photographer: Ok, start on the WP Upload Wizard here, fill in the first few boxes and then click the "This is a copyrighted, non-free work, but I believe it is Fair Use" (middle selection). After that, there should be a selection dropbox where you can choose "Depiction of currency (banknotes, coins etc.)", for the "Original publication" you can place "own image". For the "purpose", you can say "It adds significantly to the article, as the article is specifically about the subject of the image." For the alternative, you can say "Cannot be replaced with a copyright free alternative." --ZiaLater (talk) 01:55, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Persec. Yazidis

(In answering on: User talk:Corriebertus#Persecution of Yazidis by ISIL article, 9 April.)

Hello, ZiaLater. I'll not react now on your changes in the Infobox, I'll just react on your section 'Releases of Yaz...'. If I assume (without checking) that your added facts are correct, I'm not very satisfied to see that new subsection arranged under a section (§3) called 'Massacres...', because releasing is not massacring/forced exile/slavery/human trafficking/etc..

Releasing is (of course) interesting and important, but it is not massacring or the like. If you feel this article is the best place to mention it, then mention it there in a separate, new, section. That would separate in from 'the massacres', presenting it as a sort of aftermath, or 'side-topic'. --Corriebertus (talk) 12:16, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

@Corriebertus: Ok, I made a separate section for the release information. I figured it might have fit in with the human trafficking elements in the section but you're right. Thanks for the response!--ZiaLater (talk) 12:23, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

You are really quick. I was just on my way to change my words, because they could seem a bit bossy, severe. It is all just my opinion, nothing more, that was what I had wanted to make clearer, in my posting of 15 minutes ago. But yes: this new presentation of yours pleases me more, it seems correcter to me. --Corriebertus (talk) 12:30, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

English "Anexo"

I dont know how is Anexo in wikipedia on english, Anexo is a special name for something that is not really a article, it could be a list or graphics. This could be interesting for you. --The_Photographer (talk) 19:19, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

@The Photographer: That is interesting. I'm not sure if there is something like that on the english Wikipedia but it would be nice to have if someone wanted to analyze the economic situation for themselves.

Chart source

Please, could you upload each chart data (source program) to commonsarchive adding the template {{Commons Archive|Myfilesource.zip}} for each graphic uploaded for you in commons, and please remember add source information about your charts in commons because "Own work" is not enough, you need add a link of the primary source also. Upload source file to commonsarchive is important for translate it to spanish or make any modification. I remember that you are using some software in your macos, you can upload it directly to commonsarchive or if you have another files about the same chart you could compress all the files in one Zip file and upload it to commonsarchive also. You could try LibreOffice. Thanks, I am translating every article that you are publishing to spanish, please, let me know some important to add.

Latin American 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Latin America/The 10,000 Challenge ‎ has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Argentina etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Latin American content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon. If you would like to see this happening for Latin America, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Latin America, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!♦ --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 00:57, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Comment

Hi, I am aware, for experience, that you are proficient at cherry-picking sources in order to push a POV, but have at least a modicum of decency and bring a sentence that unambiguously mentions the "pink tide". Best regards.--Asqueladd (talk) 23:24, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Crisis in Venezuela article

Hi Zia! You are right, but before 2013 the situation in Venezuela was good, I tell you this because I live in Venezuela and I'm always seeing and reading how the things are going.. So, you cannot say that this crisis is "Bolivarian crisis" because when you say that, you mean that the crisis started in 1999, when it isn't.. However, thankyou for your contribution in the page! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stranger789 (talk • contribs) 04:46, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

@Stranger789: I know that you live in Venezuela, but on Wikipedia we cannot have original research (Wikipedia:OR). So we can say it happened in Bolivarian Venezuela but we can't exactly get an exact date. You might have had a personal experience in your social class that was much different than others in 2013, others might have been suffering long beforehand. Not trying to assume anything as this is an example, but this is why it would be more suitable to have the title more vague.--ZiaLater (talk) 07:41, 27 January 2017 (UTC)

@Stranger789: I'm helping to Stranger User on Wikipedia Spanish too. It's difficult be neutral when you are a element in the crisis. Stranger I underestand your personal motive, however, it's irrelevant for Wikipedia Articles. I know that spanish Venezuelan articles are unbalanced because nobody take care of this non neutrality issue, however, taking a radical point of view is not helping and it could generate a counterproductive vision and a reason to doubt the veracity of the information. I can tell you about my personal case, I am Venezuelan exiled and my vision is biased against the current government in Venezuela. I have withdrawn from the editing of these controversial articles to avoid a blockade. Whether you want it or not, there are radical visions within some users on Wikipedia, the mechanics of wikipedia operation makes the majority usually with left-wing political thinking. --The_Photographer (talk) 12:39, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi!

We are students writing an article on COPREDAL as part of our class Academic Discourse and Writing at Tec de Monterrey.

COPREDAL

Thanks for the offer! I have a drafting process that I require of students, which is actually the same process I use myself (Im working on an article along with them in my sandbox). Their article is in the "organize info into main headers" into grouping into paragraphs (which mine is in). It will also need to be shortened as they have a word limit of 500 (better a short, well-done article than....). Sentence structure and putting citations in proper format will come after that. You are welcome to make suggestions about organization and which info is the most important to keep right now, but please dont start making changes to the sentences (such as they are) or citations.... yet. They have a deadline for the current step of Monday. Again, thanks!Thelmadatter (talk) 00:25, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

@The Photographer: What part should we focus on? It seems like that article has more details on the responses. We already have the article here on 2017 Venezuelan constitutional crisis.--ZiaLater (talk) 23:57, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

I think that we should focus on the raisons of the problem and explain what is happening using a neutral editing. In this moment I'm translating everything what you're doing and in the same time I'm in the street with the people here. I'm sorry for my delay and please let me know what I could translate. Thanks Zia, a hug --The_Photographer (talk) 16:47, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

@The Photographer: I think that the difference between the Spanish article and the English article is that the Spanish article is grouping the protest info into it while we have a separate article, the 2017 Venezuelan protests. In my opinion, I think that the constitutional crisis is over after the reversal of the decision but the government is still attempting to consolidate its actions solely to its own party. Maduro has said recently that he is surprised that the National Assembly isn't in jail yet. So, either way the government will still use the TSJ for its own purposes and bypass the NA in order to keep the "revolution" going. The current protests, though they stemmed from the constitutional crisis, are more of the opposition gathering dissatisfied Venezuelans who want change. I wouldn't say that the protests are due to the constitutional crisis, but the entire crisis itself.

With the pope asking for more dialogue, Maduro pleading to the opposition to keep talking, and for the opposition to criticize the pope while continuing protests, it is difficult to see where this is going to go. I think the protests will continue for a bit, but eventually the opposition will have to think about elections. Capriles had nothing to lose since he was banned so he decided to protest. It's interesting that Henry Ramos Allup has stayed out of all of this and the protests since he is seeking to run for president. His wife, Diana D'Agostino, is even criticizing the protesting opposition on TeleSUR (state media) and supposedly looked down on Lilian Tintori for leading the protests. She kinda agreed with me on Capriles having nothing to lose and wanting to protest, almost as if he is a sore loser. What's interesting is that with Allup supposedly having ties through his brother-in-law Francisco D'Agostino an executive of Derwick Associates (who also has some controversial links to PSUV officials), it makes me skeptical that the crisis in Venezuela will resolve anytime soon. I just hope that your family and everyone else is doing well through these tough times. It seems that there is a power vacuum in the country which is never a good thing. Take care.--ZiaLater (talk) 20:21, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi Zia, thanks for your quick answer. I agree with you IMHO the crisis is not solving and actually because the oposition need the GNB to do the change, however, the current GNB is actually Cuban G2. On the other hand, Francisco papa is calling to do a not sence dialog (laltelly he added -"we need clear rules"- comment). BTW, My mother is with me in this moment, however, I did'nt get she here in Brazil because She want comme back to be with my father and sister (and her baby). The people don't want get out of the country because always there is another family member in Venezuela and it's creating a human chaing of pain. About of WP Spanish article, beleave me that Spanish Wikipedia edition is like a war because there are government employees rollbacking my editions and generating false consensus. BTW, you were quoted here, however, only me was pinged --The_Photographer (talk) 20:47, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

@The Photographer: Wow, I actually take back some of what I said. I guess Henry Ramos Allup did march today. Also, the new constitution topic is evolving as well.--ZiaLater (talk) 22:38, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

Yes I know very close the Allup and D'Angostino situation, maybe the "chavismo" had created a false oposition or simply there are a common good called corruption and the supposed struggle between opposition and government is only a circus to keep the population distracted. Btw, in this moment There is another coup calling to constituent communal assembly and IMHO it's another smoke screen. --The_Photographer (talk) 01:07, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Pictures (and videos) of the protests

I have several pictures from the protests of the latest days that I still have to upload on Commons as well as videos that I have to convert from mp4 to webm. In the meantime, you could let me know of which kind of photos are missing in the articles, not just from the timeline but also in the main and related articles, so I'll take in mind the next time I march. Good night! --Jamez42 (talk) 01:44, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

PD: I'm still taking pictures from my cellphone; I've changed the setting to take them with a high resolution, but I hope that they're good enough. --Jamez42 (talk) 01:45, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

@Jamez42: I can take a look at your uploads. You can pick a couple of your favorites and put them on my talk page as well. Stay safe!--ZiaLater (talk) 06:08, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

If you're interested and you don't mind receiving daily messages, I recommend @UCVconexión and @monitoreoccs as news channels in Telegram.

INT nomination

Hi! I thought you might be interested in seeing the current nomination in the INT of the Venezuelan referendum. There are some users that are opposing the idea and I don't want to force against what might already be a consensus, but maybe you could suggest a better alternative to highlight the situation of the country. Cheers! --Jamez42 (talk) 01:59, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

@Jamez42: Thanks for letting me know. I looked a few days ago for a nomination, so I will check it out.--ZiaLater (talk) 03:09, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Talkpage layout

To reply, this is how it should go:

Original post "What cars do you like?"

First reply "I like Volkswagens!"

Reply #1 to first reply "I think Volkswagens are stupid.."

Reply to reply #1 to first reply "No, they're great!"

Reply #2 to first reply "Me too!"

Second reply "I like Hyundai!"

Reply #1 to second reply "I think Hyundai cars break down easy"

Reply number three "I like Honda!"

Reply number four "I like Saab"

See also: Help:Using talk pages#Indentation. Use one more colon than the post you are replying to. (One easy way to do this is to copy and paste their colons and add one extra.) Always also preview your post before saving to make sure the indentation is correct. If you like, I can provide the diffs of where you have indented incorrectly. (I have been correcting your posts, so you will not be able to see by glancing at the talkpage now.) Softlavender (talk) 08:06, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

Parallel supreme court

Hi The MUD have created a parallel court. Could you add it ? --Panam2014 (talk) 16:36, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi Panam2014! They actually haven't created a "parallel" court, they nominated people to replace the existing TSJ. I did not really see them make rulings or exert any authority yet, so the topic is not notable enough for Wikipedia yet. The opposition attempted to make a parallel government, but backed away from the "Government of National Unity" plan. I think it would be safe to wait and see how things turn out.--ZiaLater (talk) 23:34, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

Recent Dispute

Hello, I am reaching out to you about a recent dispute you were involved in regarding the Smartmatic article. From my understanding, you reported users Carriedevalle23 and E-Dem snoopy for a possible conflict of interest. I am writing an in-depth article about the management of Wikipedia and I am trying to learn more about situations like yours. Would you be willing to talk to me more about this situation?  --Investigativereporter (talk) 14:38, 10 October 2017 (UTC)

@Investigativereporter: There's not much to talk about. What you can see there is pretty much all that happened.--ZiaLater (talk) 02:51, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

Aristóbulo Istúriz

As you seem to be quite active and I'm not well at understanding Spanish, and also because the talk page of the article is not having a lot of activity any more, I hope you can help with an issue on National Constituent Assembly 2017 of Venezuela. The first VP Aristóbulo Istúriz was replaced by Elvis Amoroso on 17 August. This was done because Istúriz had been selected as a gubernatorial candidate. (http://www.ultimasnoticias.com.ve/noticias/politica/elvis-amoroso-designado-como-primer-vicepresidente-de-la-anc/) I have updated the article to show Elvis as the first VP. However, what I don't know is whether Istúriz is still a member of the Presidential Commission of the Assembly. If you can help with it and find a source also, I will be highly obliged. Thank you.

Regarding Pink Tide discussion

It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Thank you. --Dereck Camacho (talk) 13:44, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

I know, I've been warned before. That's why I said "you are my trusted Latin America/political/neutrality users". I know they are neutral and have been involved in similar articles, but with you saying they "hold the same opinion as you" is a lack of good faith. Usually when I ask for the opinion of others it is because I do not want editing to devolve into an edit war, especially in articles where users are scant. In a side note, why are you not placing a notification on their talk page as well? They did the same thing and I did not chase them with a pitchfork. I find this interesting... --ZiaLater (talk) 15:39, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

I'm using a pre-made template so any content complain of it that you have is not because I wrote it. Pinging people who has been part of a discussion or previous editors in an article is not carvassing, but feel free to report it in the Incidents noticeboard if you think it is as I will if you do it again. Greetings. --Dereck Camacho (talk) 20:46, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

Violence against women by country

I saw your post on the Project Med talk page and thought I would reply here instead. First I love your idea and don't get discouraged if the interest level is not what it should be. Second, I would be glad to help and since my specialty is women's health topics, I'm probably a good editor to collaborate with on this. I am very good at finding the required medical citations and I have access to the huge medical school library at the University of Pittsburgh. I also have access to other sociology-type journals. In addition, I've been frustrated by the 'ho-hum' attitude regarding topics like this. I wrote the clinical content that was added to Rape. I also wrote Sexism in medicine (no surprise there, I suppose). On a personal level, I am absolutely dismayed and alarmed at the violence against women in sub-sahara African. I'll take a look at all the other chatter on all the other relevant talk pages to better orient myself to the scope of this 'project'. I have confidence that we can make this work. Best Regards, Barbara (WVS) ✐  ✉ ^{and Merry Christmas} 18:03, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

@Barbara (WVS): Thank you for your interest! Since you live in the United States, I may start with an article surrounding that topic so it may be more familiar. I remember reading about how even in the media in the United States, there are violent undertones in certain images (male dominance, etc). This could be incorporated, but I do not know if I will go that far. Merry Christmas to you as well!----ZiaLater (talk) 20:49, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

We can certainly start with the US if you like. Perhaps then we can use this article as some kind of pattern for the subsequent articles. The image you linked to also is some kind of clue to how the violence is often condoned in popular culture. I will follow your lead. If you want to put a draft in your user space I can also work on it there. I will start to look around in my sources to see what I can find. Keep in touch.

Have you been active on Commons?

Your image, File:Implied_vs_Official_Value_VEF.png, needs to be updated. The 10:1 official rate is now a thing of the past. It should now show an official rate of 24,982 VEF per USD and a parallel rate of over 230,000 VEF per USD. You made your latest edit on the Commons more than two weeks ago. Thanks to inflation, this image has been outdated and there is a new official exchange rate. Eyesnore 22:36, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

@Panam2014: I have not seen anything yet. I will let you know if I see anything.----ZiaLater (talk) 01:24, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

@Panam2014: Also, I have seen that the Constituent Assembly will meet this coming week to determine on what to do with legislative elections while the CNE will announce the final candidates for the 2018 presidential election.----ZiaLater (talk) 03:18, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Do you have the sources? --Panam2014 (talk) 12:19, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Have you got new sources ? Also, could you create article about the legislative council elections ? --Panam2014 (talk) 21:29, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

@Panam2014: So I don't know how it is worded, but the CNE's agreement with participating opposition parties "stipulates the election of legislative and municipal councilors, the extension of the term for the Electoral Registry and the qualification of the voting centers that were closed in the regional and municipal elections." [1] Does this mean that the legislative and municipal councilors will be elected in the same elections as the presidency?----ZiaLater (talk) 21:42, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

I think but we should wait. Have you got an idea for the article's names ? Because in 2017, it was not full regional election but governors election, and no municipal election, but mayors elections. And for National Assemly ? --Panam2014 (talk) 23:06, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

@Panam2014:To be honest, I do not know yet. Things are changing by the week. For all we know the election could have a different date again.----ZiaLater (talk) 01:56, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

@Panam2014: Ok, so here is a good source. According to La Verdad:

"The main rector of the National Electoral Council of Venezuela (CNE) Tania D'Amelio reported today that only the 14 political parties that submitted candidacies for the presidential elections will have the right to register applicants to the more than 500 positions of regional legislators. ... The elections to which the official refers will be held next to the presidential elections announced for next May 20 and will define the names of the representatives of more than 500 of the Legislative Councils of the 23 states of the country. With this, most of the opposition parties were unable to measure themselves in this contest after refusing to participate in the presidential elections due to the alleged lack of guarantees, their distrust of the process and the authorities that direct the CNE, accused of serving the Government of Nicolás Maduro."

Hope this helps!----ZiaLater (talk) 18:39, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Frente Amplio

Hi We should create an article about the organization. We have also for Movement We Are Venezuela for the new Maduro-led party. --Panam2014 (talk) 22:39, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

@Panam2014: I do not think that the Frente is notable enough for an article yet. After or closer toward the election if they become more notable, then an article should be considered. Just like the opposition's mock "Supreme Tribunal of Justice" that exists outside of Venezuela, I think this is just another name plastered onto the same group. Hope this helps!----ZiaLater (talk) 23:10, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

Elections

Here is an opinion piece penned by Mark Weisbrot. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:50, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

AllSides

The Michigan page you linked to says: AllSides uses a patented bias rating system to classify news sources as left, center, or right leaning. Components of the rating system include crowd-sourcing, surveys, internal research, and use of third party sources such as Wikipedia and research conducted by Groseclose and Milyo at UCLA. Note that while the Groseclose & Milyo results are popular, the methodology it is not without critique.

Crowd-sourced, uses Wikipedia, etc. The "leanings" for all of the news media it lists come from AllSides, not Pew. Your edit to HuffPost stated it is left to far-left. Your source says "These news sources are rated as "Left" by Allsides. According to the Pew survey, they are more trusted than distrusted by people who are mostly liberal, consistently liberal; and are more distrusted than trusted by people who are mostly conservative, and consistently conservative." It's pretty odd that the Michigan page turns that into "Far left", which suggests strongly to me it's not a reliable source itself. In any case, the actual source for the "lean" is AllSides. This is not a reliable source. Doug Weller talk 10:36, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

I forgot. The bit about audience relates to Pew, but the "leanings" which is what you are adding is from AllSides. Pew's source is 2014, a long time ago in political terms, and although your edit summary mentions audience, your text doesn't. Doug Weller talk 10:39, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

Template:Military of Peru deletion

I don't understand your reason for wanting to delete Template:Military of Peru. You linked to the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history#National Military Templates, but that discussion is about the naming of templates, not their deletion, and does not mention this one in particular. If the name is the problem, then it should be renamed by moving it to the new title, not by deletion.

In any case, it cannot be deleted while it is in use on multiple articles. It would first have to be removed from all those articles. Furthermore, the speedy deletion request gets transcluded on to all the pages on which the template is used, placing multiple pages in the speedy deletion category, which is not a good thing. SpinningSpark 10:36, 6 June 2018 (UTC)

Shortages in Venezuela

Hello:

The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Shortages in Venezuela has been completed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

You might want to consider grouping the items at the end of the article in a collapsible list which would make it look neater. Instructions on how to do this are here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Collapsible_list

Best of luck with the GAN process.

Article that the subject himself keeps trying to mass edit

Hi ZiaLater. Can you take a look at, and keep an eye on, Tulio Capriles Mendoza? The subject of the article keeps trying to mess with it, claiming that it defames him. Many of the citations are not immediately viewable, but maybe you are familiar with the situation or can find viewable citations or confirm what is in the article. Thanks!

Prose size script

Zia, see User:SandyGeorgia/monobook.js. You can create User:ZiaLater/monobook.js and import DrPda's prose size script, to see exactly how the elements on the page are adding to overall size, per WP:SIZE. For example, as of today:

• Guido has:

Document statistics: (See here for details.)

File size: 365 kB

Prose size (including all HTML code): 46 kB

References (including all HTML code): 8281 B

Wiki text: 85 kB

Prose size (text only): 25 kB (3973 words) "readable prose size"

References (text only): 843 B

• Presidential crisis has:

Document statistics: (See here for details.)

File size: 755 kB

Prose size (including all HTML code): 68 kB

References (including all HTML code): 10 kB

Wiki text: 181 kB

Prose size (text only): 38 kB (6038 words) "readable prose size"

References (text only): 1326 B

So, Guaido at about 4,000 words of prose has an overall size of 365KB, while Presidential crisis at about 6,000 words of prose (50% larger) has double the file size. Because the file size is impacted by the entire map section, which doesn't count as readable prose. If you run that script at Hugo Chavez, you'll see why I have been hollering for years about readable prose and the need for WP:SS there.

This is a very useful script. I may not have time to help you install it, as I have pending travel. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:18, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Also, look here; you have no scripts installed, so are missing out on all kinds of useful stuff. Have a look at the ones I use at:

User:SandyGeorgia/common.js

User:SandyGeorgia/monobook.js

These scripts are time savers. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:24, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

File:El pueblo soy yo poster.png

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Portrait in the Martin Vizcarra Article

Hello Zia. I am happy to see you contributing in articles about your neighbors in the south. Specifically, I have a concern—well more of curiosity— about your edits in the biography article for the current President of Peru, Martin Vizcarra. I have noted that you have changed the article page photo of the president from the official presidential portrait of the public figure, to another photo. Best, DoctorSpeed^{Want to talk?}

It's just good to keep around, in case someone tries to say Venezuelanalysis is reliable and doesn't lie. Of particular note is that the African Union was so upset at the misrepresentation of their position, that they protested ! Saving Jamez42's sources from the talk page.

@SandyGeorgia: Reading through this again made it even more disturbing:

Moving text

Zia, it's important to enter a certain kind of edit summary when moving text. Attribution is required by copyright on Wikipedia, which translates more or less to, you always have to leave a trail in edit summary about where text came from when you move it. (Text I wrote is now in article I don't really edit, with no attribution to me, and although I don't really care, I have seen editors go bonkers over that.) Otherwise, as but one example, if there is a BLP vio or a COPYVIO in the text you pasted from one article to another, years down the road there won't be a trail to trace back the text and admins can't scrub the copyvio. (I've found copyvio in this series of edits, and found more today when I was trying to clean up all that text to a summary.) Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia explains the whole thing. Basically, just make sure you always indicate the article where you got the text in edit summary, with a wikilink to the article it came from (and I also always use a link to where I'm moving text). And if you forget to do that, you can make a dummy edit that does it after the fact.

Also, I can't write text around that Blumenthal issue because I'm afraid I will get into a BLP issue. Some of those folks like to sue, so very high quality sources are needed. But I wish the Venezuela-naive would understand the sorts of things that go on in Venezuela and why we insist on high-quality sources, knowing stuff like that happens!

Hi ZiaLater, could you let me know whether or not you wish to have any further involvement with this article? It is being whitewashed by COI forces via OTRS (they couldn't get the whitewash through via normal editing channels, so they've turned to invisible OTRS requests), and no one knowledgeable is able to counter the whitewash. So unless you come back to the article I am going to need to report that to COIN and dredge up the entire COI history of the article.

You are the knowledgeable person who had been watching over the article, and contributing the most to it, therefore your assistance and input would be hugely appreciated. I left a message about this here on your talkpage in June, but did not receive a response. (you have not replied to any talkpage messages since February).

2019 Ecuadorian Protests

Hey, I'm going to lay off the cleanup for a while and let you do your thing. There's still plenty to tidy up in the citations, but I think I got everything that was egregious (i.e., duplicate citations, broken links), so it can wait until editing dies down a bit (which might not be for a while, given how rapidly this seems to be developing).

The Grey Zone

What is the matter with the greyzone as a source for Williams Kaliman? The article was written by Jeb Sprague who is a Research Associate at the University of California, Riverside and previously taught at UVA and UCSB. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 21:13, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

@Editorofthewiki: Grayzone is the only source of this information. It is not the most reliable source for such information as it has a heavy bias. If it were published by a more reliable source, then it would warrant inclusion. Detaield attribution should at least be used for such information.----ZiaLater (talk) 08:50, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

What about this? Or this? Or this? There are many sources for this though I cannot verify how nonpartisan they are. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 14:07, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

@Editorofthewiki: The first two sources do not seem too reliable. The last source seems like it might work, though it may be a primary source, so just saying the basic information should be fine, such as "Kaliman is an alumni of...". Anything more could be WP:SYNTH.----ZiaLater (talk) 14:48, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Update

@Editorofthewiki: Hello! I wanted to know if you are interested in sharing your opinion here, especially since you brought up this topic. It is important that we have a broad consensus on such issues and I am concerned about this after my last RfC was closed so quickly. Just want to make sure that everyone is heard!----ZiaLater (talk) 23:29, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Kanye Dropout Bear Murakami Jesus piece.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Kanye Dropout Bear Murakami Jesus piece.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:00, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

A quote that I'd like to share with you

“There is no such thing as neutrality. Everyone is guided by an ideological basis. The question is: is your ideological base inclusive or excluding?” – Paulo Freire, Brazilian educator, philosopher, teacher, and thinker. --Marx.FelipeForte (talk) 11:18, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

@Marx.FelipeForte: Thanks. I try to stay as neutral as possible and that is mainly why I have been specifically working on the reliability of sources. True and false is easier to discern compared to the murkiness of ideology. Have a nice day.----ZiaLater (talk) 17:11, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

@ZiaLater: As a student of many ideologies, I recognize how hard it can be to distinguish between what's accurate, what's philosophical, and what's inaccurate or common-sense. However, as a profound and constant student of philosophy, discerning between true or false is not only harder, but impossible, and you can find that out simply by inquiring about the definition and nature of "truth" and "falsehood"; it's as troublesome as it can get. Thank you, and I did have a great day. --Marx.FelipeForte (talk) 08:05, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Venezuela light star

	Defense of information neutrality
	Finally someone who is able to add light to articles about Venezuela, so important today more than ever. You're not alone!.

Talk:Macuto Bay raid

Hello ZiaLater, I just wanted to let you know that the citations collapsed when you initiated the RM had also collapsed RM discussions @WP:RM. I fixed the issue by uncollapsing them, but I ask that it remains uncollapsed as the RMCD bot automatically updates an RM every time the original RM is modified. Jerm (talk) 20:57, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Washington Post article

Hi Zia. I have tried to look at the Washinton Post article and find the part where it explains that the retainer was due in five days, but I cannot find it. The sentence that I have found is: But soon after the signing, Rendón said, Goudreau (...) demanded immediate payment of a $1.5 million retainer. Could you help me out? Many thanks in advance! --Jamez42 (talk) 01:24, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

@Jamez42: In the agreement signed by Guaido officials, there was a clause stating that a retainer payment of $1.5 million was due within five days. I do not remember the source if it is not present (as you said on the talk page, they are manipulating articles over time), but you can see it in the document itself as well.----ZiaLater (talk) 01:33, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Many thanks. I have made the changes in the article accordingly. If I find third sources that report on this, I'll let you know. Best regards. --Jamez42 (talk) 01:40, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi! I have to do a follow up on this: neither the Washington Post nor the Vox reference refer to J.J. Rendón as "General Strategist". I understand if this also appears in the source including the complete agreement, but I wanted to make sure that the sources are in their correct place and to avoid primary sources as much as possible. Best regards! --Jamez42 (talk) 17:18, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Move proposal AN/I

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.

The purpose of the post is simply to bring the situation to the attention to the administrators, without prejudice of the rest of the ongoing discussion. Best regards. Jamez42 (talk) 15:44, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Recent discussions

Hi,

I wanted to clarify that, as I have mentioned before, the opening of the thread in the WP:AN/I only had the intention of bringing the issue to the attention of the administrators, who at the end will be the ones that probably close the discussion, and does not have any punitive measures whatsoever.

As a response, you made several allegations against me, including "forcibly defending Juan Guaidó". As a participant of the discussion cited as example, you well know that the discussion had issues on its own, including potential tag teaming. In the discussion I also brought up points as rebuttals. As I have expressed in the past, I look forward improving any impression of bias or tendentious editing. However, I need to learn about the patterns that lead to these assumptions in order to correct them. I feel that the tone of the recent discussions has grown increasingly hostile, a fear that I have commented before.

Given our history of cooperation in the past (that as far as I recall, also includes other Wikimedia projects), I really don't want our relationship to be tarnished. I understand that Venezuela has been polarizing topic both abroad and in the country, and I wish to not let emotions get the best of us.

I look forward editing constructively with you in the future. Please let me know if I can be of assistance.

Best regards. --Jamez42 (talk) 15:14, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

I applaud Jamez42's sentiment. I'm going to be more firm, however. ZiaLater, you are to refrain from mass pings from now on. The risk of canvassing is too great with these and they, generally, are just a bad idea. Please don't do that again. Thanks. El_C 17:36, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

@El C: Got it. Thanks for understanding as it truly was just an attempt to have a more thorough discussion.----ZiaLater (talk) 18:24, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

In my case, please ping me on any talk related to Venezuela topic and I usually used to be at WP in Spanish, however, due to the more relaxing environment on en:wp, I will be more active here. Thanks --Wilfredor (talk) 19:28, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

You're famous

Congratulations, you have articles from both Mintpress News and The Grayzone calling you out specifically for being a "regime change advocate" for helping get both sources depreciated. I'd honestly be chuffed if any of my editing got the same coverage. Hemiauchenia (talk) 19:51, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

@Hemiauchenia: I saw. It is weird how Grayzone never wrote how I advocated for Blumenthal's concerns about his Wikipedia article, suggesting a peer review, or how I have also nominated the review of right-wing sources like One America News Network, PanAm Post and others on WP:RSN. The screenshot they use of my recent edits is even about my support of describing Operation Gideon (2020) as a coup attempt, which I do not think any "staunch supporter of the right-wing Venezuelan opposition" would support. When you provide a one-sided story like this, you do not get an accurate picture.----ZiaLater (talk) 09:55, 14 June 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Latin American Spring

The article Latin American Spring has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Its an original synthesis of a neologism catching a way too loose association of protests across many countries and years.

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.

Replaceable non-free use File:PROVEA logo.png

Thanks for uploading File:PROVEA logo.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file's talk page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
