Miguel== By way of introduction == I am a Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Spain mathematical physicist based in Wikipedia:Wikipedians/England, where I work in finance. I obtained my Ph.D. from the University of California at Riverside on 2004 December 11. My Wikipedia:Are_You_a_Wikipediholic_Test score was 61 as of 22:10, 2004 Feb 25 (UTC) == Thoughts on wikipedia == Wikipedia is successful because everyone loves to read themselves write. Contributing to any article of political significance is a sure source of wikistress. I have seen myself gradually drifting away from political/religious/cultural articles, then away from current affairs, and then even away from theoretical physics articles. When even an inocuous topic such as Normal distribution can lead to acrimonious discussions on talk pages, I am just about ready to give up on Wikipedia. After March 11, 2004 Madrid attacks happened I realized staying away from controversy and self-righteous ignorants just wansn't going to work, but that one must pick one's battles wisely. == My contributions == All my contributions up to 2005 April 15 are licensed under whatever the default licence for wikipedia was.

I hope you like the place and decide to wikipedians. If you need any questions answered about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or drop me a user talk:maveric149. Cheers! --user:maveric149 User talk:Miguel/Mathematics User talk:Miguel/Law User talk:Miguel/JoeM User talk:Miguel/Sam Spade User talk:Miguel/Madrid ---- Given your conversation with User:JoeM, you may be interested in helping to improve common sense conservative. ---- Hey Miguel! Thanks for pointing out the spider/FooBar inconsistency on my User page, well spotted! ;-) Nice job on self-organization, the page is looking pretty respectable. Perhaps we could suggest it go on the Main in the "New articles", as some of them have been there for a few days. -- User:Lexor 21:34, 16 Aug 2003 (UTC) ---- Salut Miguel. I appreciate your work on Jean-Marie Le Pen. I have no idea how to get people to agree that the Le Pen article is NPOV. In a certain sense it's a test for Wikipedia NPOV policy. The problem with le Pen is that there many people have some irrational sympathy for him. Obviously Anthere is not of suporters but she feels that the article fail NPOV. I've tried to write some facts with references and avoid as much as possible judgement. But with Le Pen facts will give a rather negative feeling. Strangeless it seems nobody has found positive facts to balance the article. Except the fact that le Pen studied at the university and voluntered for Algeria and things like that... When you read what le Pen write or say.... well it stinks (to say the less), and everything that le Pen say is said with extreme care because there are laws in France that that prevent the expression of Nazi, racist or anti-Semitic ideology. Very few people will say "I agree with le Pen" but they believe there's something positive because le Pen is "against current establishment". That's the key of the problem with fascism : this is mainly irrationnal. I have searched for fact or quote to balance the article I can't find anything. I remember when le Pen was the guest in "Le Tribunal des Flagrants Délires" (a radio show on France Inter where personnalities were judged by humorists) while all other guest showed some sense of humor (even Arlette Laguiller made some good jokes). I can't remenber any good joke from le Pen. My conclusion is we don't have to try to convice anyone. We should go on feeding the article with documented facts and let's see what happen. User:Ericd 00:41, 18 Aug 2003 (UTC) ---- Hi Miguel, just noticed that you marked the addition of a sentence to the Talk:Albert Einstein page as a 'minor edit'. If that was an accident, ignore me, but if not then I'll just let you know that generally, minor edits are supposed to be things like adding a wikilink, fixing a wiki, spelling, etc. Adding a comment is never a minor edit. Later, User:Isomorphic 08:08, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC) == Radical centrist? == Hi Miguel, I noticed you made a change to the radical centrist page, but I couldn't figure out what, exactly. Perhaps you can clarify on the talk page? User:Drernie 00:47, 4 Oct 2003 (UTC) == Anarchism == Dear Miguel, your modification to Anarchism's section on information technology changes was most excellent and improved the paragraph immensely. Thanks, User:fifelfoo 3 March 2004 Dear Miguel, I disagree with your removal of some of the historical events from the "see also" section at the bottom. (3.58 and 4.01 5 March). I am tempted to revert them! I think its useful to put the series of events in a context, or to fold them all into either functioning anarchies and / or history as a group. The importance is having links to major events in one place in relation to one another. User:Fifelfoo 22:10, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC) == Spanish == Dear Miguel, I see you are working, if your Ph.D. can wait, please goto Loop Quantum Gravity es: and see translation. Leave comments in Talk. Por supuesto prefiero el castellano. aún en en:. Saludos. User:DefLog 17:01, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC) Otra: una miradita a lazo de Wilson es:, sobre todo 'framing' y 'fuerte interacción' (obviamente no 'interacción fuerte'). Gracias. User:DefLog 23:14, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC) Gracias. 'framing' queda User:DefLog 23:35, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC) :No, si ya lo sé ;-) User:Miguel -- == Quadragesimo Anno == Could you please write Quadragesimo Anno [http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/pius_xi/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xi_enc_19310515_quadragesimo-anno_en.html]? -- User:Kaihsu 15:19, 2004 May 4 (UTC) ==Limited Sovereignty== Sorry if I came off sounding argumentative, particularly when I think our views on this are similar. That phrase ''limited sovereignty'' just ticks me off. I ''hate'' it when officials weasel out of things by successfully changing the meanings of words. The locution you've used, "what the US government terms limited sovereignty" is fine, because it at least indicates there is some question about the term; thanks. User:Dpbsmith 19:04, 9 May 2004 (UTC) ==Hola de Berlin== I saw you are a Spanish guy in America, so I thought you might be interested in a project I have started. It is about learning, especially languages. Please check my page and let me know. User:Get-back-world-respect 23:19, 9 May 2004 (UTC) == What's up with me? == [No acentos por teclado bananero] Nada especial, salvo que ultimamente me han dicho cosas como "yo no reconozco ningun derecho a la privacidad ni al honor", y asi (un sysop) y la gente se quedaba tan ancha....... entonces me he preguntado "¿Que hago aqui y para que contribuyo?" y estoy aun pensandolo... No he llegado a ninguna conclusion todavia. La semana pasada estuve haciendo unos ejercicios esprituales (no pense en la wikipedia, eran mas profundos :) y no te he contestado hasta ahora por eso. Hope everything goes fine with you and your PhD. Me parece que no siges los debates en la mailing list. I think I think too much on everything. Gracias por el interes. User:Pfortuny 10:51, 31 May 2004 (UTC) == Request for AMA assistance == We have received an anonymous request for AMA assistance from an IP address, I have directed that individual to contact me if they wish not to create a Wikipedia account. If you are interested in helping please let me know and if I hear from this individual I will try and put you in contact. See Wikipedia:AMA Requests for Assistance. Thank you. User:Alex756 User talk:Alex756 03:08, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC) == Another request for AMA assistance == I am requesting assistance with respect to an edit war over article Lyndon LaRouche. LaRouche is undoubtably an unusually controversial person; I began editing an article that had obviously been subject to many, many edits already. I was scrupulous about acknowledging the controversy, and the existence of opposing viewpoints; I concentrated on addressing outright falsehood, or dubious assertions made without documentation. The problem began when User:Adam_Carr simply eliminated the article, and posted a new one, which is a fanatical attack, and would be considered libelous back in the days when libel laws were taken seriously. He simultaneously proclaimed his intention to pursue a revert war. He was supported in this by User:John_Kenney, who also took the position that no article should be permitted that was not a full-on character assassination. As soon as I reached the conclusion that Adam would not discuss, only revert (it appears that he has an history of this approach to disputes), I posted a request for mediation. The page (Adam's version) was protected by User:Mirv on June 21. Both Adam and John refused mediation. In subsequent discussion, John (who is a sysop) became somewhat more open to negotiation, but has not participated now for several days. Adam has indicated that he has no intention of negotiating anything. More than a week has gone by, and I feel that the page as presently protected is an embarrassment to Wikipedia. I would like to explore other avenues to resolve this conflict.-- --User:Herschelkrustofsky 20:50, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC) == Loop quantum gravity == Sorry Miguel, please don't let my comments de-motivate you. I'm generally sympathetic to the article and your editing of it. OTOH, of course your comments on becoming the de-facto maintainer of the page are valid. I considered doing something myself, but I'm too far from the actual proceedings (did my diploma 20 years ago, in AQFT, and working totally outside the field since then). User:Pjacobi 21:13, 25 Jul 2004 (UTC) == Re: History of Spain == This might set a record for the 'longest time it has ever taken for someone to respond to a message.' You sent me a User_talk:Adam Faanes way, way back in April about the History of Spain article, but I never checked my talk page. Sorry. :) Anyway, your top-down approach is definitely an excellent way to start on things, particularly given the state of the History of Spain article if one scrolls down very far at all. There is a lot on Spanish history already in the Wiki, just that it isn't actually pulled together into the History of Spain article very well. If you're still interested, I would be most happy to help any way I can to work up the history on the Spain#History section and elsewhere in the Wiki. User:Adam Faanes 09:56, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC) I have tried to shorten the Spain history User:Adam_Faanes/History_of_Spain but it still might take some shortening - I'm not sure how long it ought to be, and I'm not sure how much we want to shear away. It's not too much longer than the France/United Kingdom histories. The Germany article is much longer. User:Adam Faanes 01:50, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC) ==WP:COTW== Hi, thought you might be interested in voting to get Culture of Spain to be the collaboration of the week. With a few more votes it may win and we can have a great, eventually featured article. Please see that page. - User:Taxman 16:11, Oct 6, 2004 (UTC) ==algebra of random variables== Hello. In light of objections expressed by several persons at Talk:Stochastic process, who seemed to be planning on simply deleting the "algebraic approach" section, apparently written by you, I have moved that material to a new article, algebra of random variables. I have created links to that new article from five other pages. User:Michael Hardy 02:28, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC) ==Various discussions== Thanks for pointing out the problrm with my user talk (probably my ISP having a bad morning). On the LQG pages: you generally have been acting reasonably, while others have not. It is difficult to do anything very positive while the situation seems so volatile. User:Charles Matthews 06:41, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC) == Article Licensing == Hi, I've User:rambot#Free the Rambot Articles project to get users to Wikipedia:Multi-licensing all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (''CC-by-sa'') v1.0 and v2.0 Creative Commons Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer.
