[edit] I usually get angry...

But I want to thank everyone who added good and relevant information to this article I created a few months ago rather than the usual petty and egotistical editing that usually happens, such as with the lusitanic article, which is why I seldom bother to create a wiki article anymore just to have it bastardized. Thanks for making this a better article. I am very grateful and I appreciate it very much.

Well T B Pereira, you didn't create this article! I did, on the 19 November 2005. The point here is that Wikipedia articles have no owners. They belong to the world. The Ogre 15:24, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia articles have no owners. They belong to the world.... aw shucks, that almost brought a tear to my eye. Almost, and just to one. So touching. Well, you Ogre, you started the article by adding Pereira to the database, yes, but it was bare and I expanded it VERY much beyond what it was. And I didn't claim to own or not own the article but that's WikiLogic for you, which you have no shortage of. When I referred to the article I 'created' I was referring to my additions, which were vast, so the point HERE was my pleasure that the edits seemed justified and non-tyrannical, even when I may disagree. But now I see that it resembles almost nothing what it was when I made that first comment almost six months ago. You can't possibly tell me in all honesty you think it is better now. If you can, then you have no taste. Oops, I guess that was POV. Sorry, you WikiPhile. But if you can't say it is better now in all honesty then your edit must have been ego driven. But I don't care anymore. I used to get angry not because of differences in opinion but because of the dictator-like abuse and unfortunately I ended up succumbing to the poison that is Wikipedians. Shame on me. I should have known better, because to get angry with your kind is like being mad at a mentally retarded person for being mentally retarded. It's just not right, I understand that now that I have calmed down. Now I do it for laughs. You're all like a bunch of sleazy lawyers and would make great politicians. Congratulations for your Wiki-consistency in Wiki-butchering. You Wiki-whore. Please, by all means, exercise your Wiki-ness and delete my comment like the God King you are. You'll just prove me right, you know? But that's okay, because to be fair unlike you and your ilk, you are not the worst.
