[edit] Castro disamb. page

I linked to this article from the Castro disambiguation page. Citing this 29 year old catcher as Fidel Castro's Older brother......

• Although there is no entry for Fidel's brother yet, I have moved this page to Ramon Castro (baseball player) and fixed the links to it. Veronique 22:13, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

• Well the page isn't there now. I'm looking for stuff on Fidel's brother, too. Wencer 03:13, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
  • When the article is created, you can add a see also at the top of this page. Otherwise, if there are only 2 Ramon Castros, a dab page isn't really necessary. —Wknight94 (talk) 03:23, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Ramon Castro → Ramon Castro (catcher) (or something to this effect; it used to be Ramon Castro (baseball player) but given the existence of Ramon A. Castro). Anyway, my point is that there's no page for Fidel & Raul Castro's brother - somehow for whom it is very difficult to find any information. Wencer 03:27, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Survey

• Support This Ramon Castro is simply NOT undeniably the most famous person with that name. Wencer 03:32, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose. While Fidel & Raul are famous, Ramon certainly isn't. Google Test says this guy to me. Just create a Ramon Castro (Cuban politician) page and use a hatnote if you need a new article. --Dhartung | Talk 10:47, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose. Ramón Castro (Cuban revolutionary) could almost be brought to AFD as a non-notable example of reflected glory. It sounds like he barely participated in any activity regarding his famous brother's activity. —Wknight94 (talk) 11:55, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clean-up

Who wrote this article? It seems like one's point of view ("Castro is known as a good defensive catcher, but, despite showing occasional home run power, has never displayed sufficient hitting skills to win a job as a starter"? Known by who?). Ohyeahmormons 00:53, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I expanded it quite a bit but that part was in place before I got to it. Feel free to fix it. —Wknight94 (talk) 01:01, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Plate Appearance Song

Does anyone have enough inside information to know why Castro's theme for when he comes to the plate at home is the "Imperial March" from Star Wars? It's a very rare choice of music to represent a member of the home team, across sports.
