Talk:Susie Castillo

Marine 69-71

Hey buddy, I don't know who you think you are threatening me "that you're gonna block me" if I do this or that, but you don't scare me "bro".

Susie Castillo is Puerto Rican and Dominican, am I right? So then what's the point in saying "she considers herself Puerto Rican and Dominican" when she is both? I would hope she considers herself both since she is, but there's no point in saying that. That would be like me saying I consider myself white. If I considered myself Chinese, people would think I'm crazy. In the interview you're using as a source, she's saying that officially, she is both, something we could already figure out.

Now I really don't care because it's not that important but I aint gonna deal with some dude online threatening to block me over something he's wrong about. Bowser Koopa

• The article sourced talks about herself as a Puerto Rican. I think the Dominican statement in the sentence can go since it doesn't really address that issue, but it's a sourced statement leading to an article written by the subject herself and fleshes out who she is, and should be included. Whether the wording needs to be tooled with is another story. --David Shankbone 17:35, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Bowser Koopa, who do I think I am? I don't know, but I can tell you who I am.

1. I'm the guy who originated the article in the first place and who welcomes other editors who want to add new information which can be verified from a reliable source. I also welcome editors who will delete false information from any of the articles which I have originated. This is all in accordance to policy.

2. I am administrator in Wikipedia, who looks after the well being of its articles and will enforce Wikipedia's policies.

Now with that said, let me explain the following. I didn't threaten you, it was a "warning" directed to you and the other parties involved since it was stated in the "edit summary" and not the talk pages. Constent reverting is considered an "edit war" and that is one of the things that is discouraged.

The article originally, did not state that Castillo considered herself both Dominican and Puerto Rican, however, User:Dominicanflav7, believed that it important that it be stated what Castillo considers herself to be and therefore, provided a verifiable source as proof. That is permitted since it is cited. You deleted that information which was wrong on our part. Wikipedia is not about what we "like" or do "not like", but about what can be verified as fact. User:65.210.53.162, added the information once again and you reverted and so on and so forth. This was leading into a revert war, which is against policy and we were all warned. I welcome you and all new comers to follow the rules established (which I will post in your User page) and to become part of our project by making positive constructive contributions.

I still don't think you get it. Of course she considers herself to be Puerto Rican and Dominican, that's what she is. What else would she consider herself? black? chinese? The page says "she was greatly influenced by her Puerto Rican heritage but she has said in many interviews she considers herself both Puerto Rican and Dominican".....uh, is there any reason she shouldn't? She might have said she IS Puerto Rican and Dominican. It originally said she says in interviews she considers herself 100% Puerto Rican, and I guess that meant she thinks of herself as all Puerto Rican and not Dominican, not sure if that's what it meant though. But that would make sense. Saying she considers herself both doesn't, because she is both. Even the page used as a source doesn't say she 'considers' herself both, it says she is both.

I think this is one of the most unimportant things I've ever argued about. But I felt threatened and I don't take shit from some dude online. Bowser Koopa

Location of "Succession" boxes

The "Succession" boxes at the bottom of many of the Miss Massachusetts' articles are placed after the "References" and "External Links" sections. I think they seem to be lost down there, and should be moved to above the "References" section, because the articles seem to end once you hit the "footnotes," which I most often do not read.

If the "Succession" boxes were placed above the "Reference" section, they would become much more apparent and therefore useful to everyone, I believe. SeanMon 06:57, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes but they don't look as good where you suggest (in my opinion) and if they were changed, to keep things consistent, over 100 articles would need to be edited. -- PageantUpdater • talk | contribs | esperanza 07:01, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Birth date

I think her date of birth is wrong. how can she be a Scorpio and born in January? if she was born in January then she is either a Sagitarius or a Capricorn right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.180.75.234 (talk • contribs) 21:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

this guy seems to be right. I just did a search and I couldn't find a page with her birth date and zodiac sign on the same page, they either list her birthdate in January or her zodiac sign as Scorpio. her own myspace page www.myspace.com/susiecastillo says she's a Scorpio, so that would mean she wasn't born in January. I'll leave someone else to figure this one out, cause I don't really feel like it. I'm sure there's a simple answer. Axem Black
