Good luck!

P.S. One last helpful hint. To sign your posts like I did above (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes)
[edit] License tagging for Image:5593 news.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:5593 news.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 11:05, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Please cite sources
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Daniel Cordone, but we regretfully cannot accept original research. Please find and add a reliable citation to your recent edit so we can verify your work. Uncited information may be removed at any time. Thanks for your efforts, and happy editing!

[edit] Some helpful tips
I noticed you editing a few pages on my watch list, and I hope you don't mind me offering some helpful advice. First of all, you should familiarize yourself with talk pages and Wikiquette. On talk pages, please post new comments at the very bottom, or better yet, hit the plus sign tab at the top of the page. This will create a new topic for you. Also, every time you post something on a talk page, you must 'sign' it by typing four tildes <nowikie>Andrew c 02:09, 26 October 2006 (UTC)</nowiki>. As for the main article space, as stated above, when you add new content, you must supply a citation of a verifiable, reliable source. You may also want to review the original research and neutral point of view policy pages. Hope this helps. Happy editings!--Andrew c 02:09, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

[edit] Total depravity
Your change to the page Total depravity was determined to be unhelpful and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. --Flex (talk|contribs) 14:53, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] May 2007
Please do not add unhelpful and unconstructive content to Wikipedia, as you did to 2000s. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Mkdwtalk 01:27, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rate Your Music
"plz don't revert" isn't an adequate edit summary — it says nothing about what you did, nor about why you did it. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 08:44, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] See alsos becoming vandalism
Your periodic adding of mostly irrelevant links to articles such as total depravity and presuppositional apologetics (e.g., these) needs to stop. Its repetitive nature is becoming more and more like vandalism. If you have specific concerns for some of the links, please discuss them on the talk page for the article in question. --Flex (talk/contribs) 11:01, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Martin Luther
I came across your recent edit to the article and have reverted it. I feel that the statement regarding his chronic illness, etc. requires reliable and verifiable sources. If you feel that my revert was in error, please leave a message either on Ajcfreak|my talk page or on the article talk page. Thank you. Happy Wiki-ing!!! aJCfreak yAk 07:36, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Nu Metal
I agree, the only reason people don't like Nu Metal is because it's famous. I am just as much of a Metal head as anyone else listening to any other kind of Metal. Iamanadam 23:43, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Your use of article talk pages
Please do not use talk pages for general discussion of the topic. They are for discussion related to improving the article. They are not to be used as a forum or chat room. See here for more information. Thank you. ([[1], [2]) MastCell Talk 04:41, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to use talk pages such as Talk:Planned Parenthood for inappropriate discussion, as described here, you may be blocked. -Severa (!!!) 10:55, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Edits
I reverted a couple of your edits, to Jackass (unknown cast member) and Manny Puig (unnecessary changes). Please ensure your contributions are improving the encyclopedia, otherwise your ability to edit may be retricted. Thanks, Deiz talk 07:08, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Block
Having reviewed your contributions and concerns raised by other editors I've blocked your account for 24hrs. I would advise you to be especially careful to make useful, constructive and appropriate edits after the block expires. Thanks, Deiz talk 11:07, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi Deiz, i try my best not to ever disrupt articles only improve them and feel that for 99% of the time i havent disrupted, i accept your decision since you are a wikipedia official. Portillo 02:20, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
- Fair enough. The talk page edit noted above was certainly not constructive. Of course, not all editors are Shakespeare, Stephen Hawking or Mother Theresa, but in future, before you press save, ask yourself: is this edit truly going to improve the encyclopedia? Deiz talk 03:47, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rap-Rock and The Clash
Citation needed? I assume you are not familiar with the discography of The Clash? As I noted in my summary of the edit, The Magnificent Seven is one of, if not the first appearance of rap-rock.Jlee562 (talk) 02:09, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
I was just surprised that it wasnt added earlier. Thanks for the message. Portillo (talk) 19:55, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] January 2008
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Heath Ledger. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. {{{2}}} Will (talk) 21:46, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

The project aims to develop all Slipknot articles to create reliable, high quality articles. If you would to join, simply list yourself i nthe participants list on the project page. REZTER TALK ø 11:17, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Insane Clown Posse stuff
The "Reception" headline you keep making is unneccesary. And the review that you are putting up doesn't belong there. The page isn't for reviews. That is why I'm removing it. Hope you understand. Juggalobrink (talk) 01:39, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Yeah no worries Portillo (talk) 07:35, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Civility
Hi, While browsing through recent changes I came across an edit that you have made to the Son of God article. While what you have done in terms of reverting vandalism is appreciated, please consider revising your tone when filling out edit summaries. Using profanity violates WP:Civil and will not accomplish anything useful. Thanks! --Ubardak (talk) 07:57, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
I understand. Sorry Portillo (talk) 08:00, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Real Madrid criticism section
Hi, I was wondering why you removed the criticism section relating to Real Madrid's comments about their desire to sign Cristiano Ronaldo?
It seemed highly notable, related to not only Real Madrid, but the current European and English champions, Manchester United.
Normally, if one of my edits is removed, it is easy to understand why, by reading the edit summaries, however you marked your edit that removed the information as a minor edit (removal of an entire section is hardly minor) and left no information in the summary.
Anyway, just a polite suggestion, perhaps if you want to removed correctly cited and notable information, it would be nice if you left an edit summary, or even better discussed it with the other involved editors beforehand.
I'm sure your edit was done with the best of intentions, it is just a little hard to understand your motives, without discussion/summary information.
see ya
Sennen goroshi (talk) 14:31, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for your message. I think you should put that under Ramon Calderon's article. Portillo (talk) 01:20, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
-
- Good idea, however some of the comments were made by Bernd Schuster, and Manchester United have threatened to take action against Real Madrid, but against an individual.
