Warnings[edit]

March 2009[edit]

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. We always appreciate when users upload new images, however, it appears that one or more of the images you have recently uploaded may fail our non-free image policy. Most often, this involves editors uploading a copyrighted image of a living person. For other possible reasons, please read up on our Non-free image criteria. Please note that we take very seriously our criteria on non-free image uploads. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. --Aeon17x (talk) 12:48, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please do not add inappropriate images to Wikipedia; it is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Aeon17x (talk) 13:03, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Joseph Estrada[edit]

Your recent edits to the Joseph Estrada article have been reverted, as they are largely excerpts from Estrada's State of the Nation address. TheCoffee (talk) 18:51, 19 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have had to remove many more of your additions to the Estrada article because they are copied from Estrada's biography on his official website. Please do not add copyrighted content to Wikipedia articles, as it's quite difficult to detect and may potentially raise legal problems for Wikipedia. Thanks. TheCoffee (talk) 10:56, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you remove the "Foreign Affairs", I made it and also "Fight on Terorism"? Can I add in the Joseph Estrada Article the things he did as president? Are you a Filipino and if you are are an Estrada hater?- Philippinepresidency March 20, 2009

I removed those because they were unsourced and quite poorly written. Listing Estrada's foreign visits, for example, are not notable in the big picture, and muddle the overall view of his presidency. Also see the policy page Wikipedia:Citing sources and Wikipedia:Assume good faith. TheCoffee (talk) 13:14, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Vice President of the Philippines[edit]

Erap resigned from office accdg. to the Supreme Court. We should abide by that since that's the only legal/constitutional way GMA would've acceded to power. –Howard the Duck 08:35, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Fact is Joseph Estrada DID NOT RESIGN the presidency. There is no resignation paper is known to exist. He was ousted by a military coup.-Philippinepresidency , March 2009

I'll add these facts:

SC said Erap resigned.
Erap said he didn't resign.

Then we let the reader figure out for himself what that means. Is that a fair enough compromise? –Howard the Duck 09:13, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, I think it's fair. Just out of curiosity...are you a Filipino? If you are you'll know how the democratic system here is very unstable unlike in the United States.-Philippinepresidency March 20, 2009

Yes I'm a Filipino so I know this case. –Howard the Duck 14:45, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Carlos P. Garcia and Diosdado Macapagal[edit]

I removed your entry again, on both infoboxes since there is no succession according to the note in the infobox.--Lenticel ^(talk) 23:54, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I know that there is no succession, that is very clear, I just put it so people would know easily who held the position after the Vice President. For example, in the presidency, Quezon did not succeed Aguinaldo as president, but it is clear that Quezon was the next person who held the office of president having it abolished from 1901-1935. Did you understand what I am trying to tell you?- Philippinepresidency, March 22, 2009

I also removed succession from various presidents and vice-presidents. The reference note is clear and there is no need for redundant parenthetical messages like that. Remember, assume good faith. Take note of this attack you said on Lenticel:

"Did you understand what I am trying to tell you?"

I am warning you once again, that it will be grounds for blocking. Thanks.--The Wandering Traveler (talk) 07:21, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Vice President of the Philippines[edit]

I removed the trivia section (it's trivia) since it makes the article redundant. The information provided was included in the article itself, so there is no need to insert a trivia so-so. Maybe you should include these trivia into the individual vice president's article page, but not a separate section as trivia. I also reverted your previous edits back to Howard the Duck's most recent change on the article. You replaced important words with different terms which promotes rightist view; i.e. "ouster" do not suggests nuetrality for the page. If you shall continue doing disruptive edits I will adhere to the fact and will endorse you to an administrator for blockage. Thanks.

Note: You should reply on the messager's talk page, not on your talk page.--The Wandering Traveler (talk) 07:08, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reversions[edit]

Two recent edits which you made to the President of the Philippines article, this one and this one, have been reverted. I just reverted that second one, leaving an edit summary which says, "Please discuss at Talk:President of the Philippines#Inaugural holder". -- Boracay Bill (talk) 08:21, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you have unreverted my reverts and commented om my talk page. I have tagged your reversions {{dubious}} and have copied your response to me to the article talk page. Please continue this discussion there (see the duscuss links in the dubious tags).

I see that your user page disclaims, "i'm new to wikipedia." Please read WP:V, WP:NOR, WP:NPOV (WP's three core content policies) Further reading should include WP:RS and WP:EP. Also, I've noticed that you seldom leave edit summaries; please read WP:ES. -- Boracay Bill (talk) 05:01, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of Presidential portraits again[edit]

I removed the various images that you uploaded. These are not valid public domain images because.

these are not your on work as you have said in the image descriptions of the files
Phil. gov't images are public domain but cannot be used for commercial reasons without prior approval from the gov't. This is not compatible with the GFDL based Wikipedia since information here can be used commercially.

This is your last warning regarding the images. I will have to report you for blocking. --Lenticel ^(talk) 16:36, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Talk page vandalism[edit]

If you continue to vandalize talk pages, as with this edit, you will be blocked. TheCoffee (talk) 22:08, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This IP address appears to be you, continuing to deceitfully edit talk pages. Take note that you are being watched closely, and if you continue to disrupt Wikipedia you will be blocked. TheCoffee (talk) 00:47, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I meant the edits to this talk page. TheCoffee (talk) 02:26, 7 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
