Disambiguation link notification for October 19 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Guatemalan Civil War, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Britain and Department of Defense (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Very nice work edit

The Guatemala civil war page is first rate now. I dont have anything to add. Do you know anything about the Salvador war?--2001:558:6043:29:7875:A2D5:9DA2:A73C (talk) 06:35, 22 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thank you edit

I have allot of knowledge about the Salvadoran Civil War. I would like to make similar edits to that page as well, it seems to suffer the same problems that the page on the Guatemalan war did for awhile, but maybe not to the same extent. The Salvadoran War page just needs a bit of a purge, but aside from that it is doing better than it was. The Salvadoran war page puts too much emphasis on US involvement.

I know. That's why you should chip in. Im working on it now. I want more information added to the FMLN and Duarte sections. I have some Im putting together but I could use some help.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 08:16, 24 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I will help.

Thanks. Nice job.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 05:26, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I actually have a lot more info for the post war litigation section and FMLN. Some on Duarte also.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 20:08, 26 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I dont want to do anything more until I know what you're planning.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 21:50, 26 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I plan on following up my edits for the 1982-1984 period of the Salvadoran civil war with info on the 1984 elections and Duarte's Presidency. I'll probably resort to copy editing for that, as I have done for half of my edits so far. Feel free to do the same. I want to keep everything in chronological order, year by year, to detail the progression of the conflict from 1979-1992 and the various phases it went through.

Ahh. You have complimented my edits, thanks.

Ok, so you want to get rid of the Duarte section and just include it with everything else?--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 22:46, 26 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I think I will just move the Duarte section so that it comes immediately after the 1982-1984 section. -- User: Milexpert101

What now? All that's left is the 90s.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 02:18, 27 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

What else did you want to do? I'll be glad to help. These ideas come to me gradually as I experiment.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 05:42, 27 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I'm not entirely sure, it is looking really good. I'll think of something, though. Its definitely very close to what I had in mind. --Milexpert101

True that it's not just about the US but it's kind of like laying out the history of the former Soviet satellites. Russia is the big dog running the show. In Latin America, the system of terror and dependency was set up by the master of the hemisphere. I cant show how the system was set up because the page is limited to the civil war.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 19:52, 27 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

In reality, this was America's war; it was America maintaining the continuity of the government it wanted to have in power. I think US cold war policy in Latin America needs its own article, which needs to be linked to this page, and the Guatemalan page. Start it; I'll chip in. Additionally, I think I have ideas for other pages to edit. Do you have any information about the Somoza regime or covert US/CIA activites in Guatemala during 1977-1983? --Milexpert101 (talk) 04:10, 28 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Im looking a large stack of books on these issues right now, including post Cold War Latin America policy. It went from death squads for the most part to so called free trade pacts to "lock them in to their economic reforms." I can show the whole thing from the late 1930s to now.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 04:37, 28 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Add something to your user page and your name will turn blue lol.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 04:27, 30 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Want to help me create a page on Victoria '82 from the Guatemalan Civil War? - Milexpert101 (talk) 17:31, 30 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Sure, I think I have some info on that somewhere.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 00:21, 31 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Of course I do. I have the original Plan Sofia documents but they're in Spanish.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 05:45, 31 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have access to the Plan Sofia documents, if only those could be more easily translated.- Milexpert101 (talk) 16:56, 31 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I come from a Puerto Rican family but I cant read them. I just know that it's detailed planning for genocide.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 20:28, 31 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

There's a lot of good information here: http://nsarchive.wordpress.com/2012/02/02/genocide-trial-against-rios-montt-declassified-documents-provide-key-evidence/

The "Cerezo Administration: new constitution, but continued violence" section needs work. Im on it.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 04:33, 1 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Here also: http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB297/index.htm --Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 04:36, 1 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I apologize, I have been quite busy for the last several days. The edits which have been made are of good quality. Do you have any statistics for the escalation in violence after 1988? - Milexpert101 (talk) 05:29, 2 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Im actually putting that together right now. Reading through some materials. books by Walter Lafeber and Susanne Jonas and reports from human rights groups.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 08:59, 2 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Additionally, do you know any additional details about the continuation of US assistance to Guatemala between 1977 and 1985 during the ban. All that I am aware of during that period is on the page. - Milexpert101 (talk) 05:36, 2 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Yes. Plenty. "I have detailed files" lol. Documents from Congressional hearings and all that. Military aid continued during the Carter years and during the time there was supposed to be a cut off during the Reagan administration.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 08:59, 2 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Oh, whoops. The 2,000 number came from here:

"GAM, the group represents the family members of some 2,000 disappeared people in Guatemala."

It stuck in my head as I was editing.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 00:45, 3 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Its cool man. - Milexpert101 (talk) 03:35, 3 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Ive got quite a bit of information for 1989 that Im getting ready to add.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 06:42, 3 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I am excited. I have never been able to locate anything detailing that period. - Milexpert101 (talk) 19:28, 3 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Reports from human rights groups and in books like the ones cited above. Noam Chomsky has a tendency of locating the most critical information. Im working on summarizing all of it. Basically state-terror remained high while the media was celebrating Guatemala's magnificent democracy.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 23:27, 3 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

The article said they were for M-16's.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 14:52, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Oh, nah, you got it right too:

"The sight is placed on the barrel of a Galil rifle or M-16, projecting a small red dot onto the target's body."--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 15:05, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Why did you remove Rios Montt's job title? Was he not a dictator by all definitions? Maybe we should remove all descriptions of the FMLN as a "leftist" guerrilla group. Guatemalan military intelligence were not death squads as the National Security Archive article states? I also noticed you removed cited information from the Salvador page and changed things for "balance" purposes when the articles particularly focused on what you removed.

It's also interesting that you removed information cited to Susanne Jonas, a distinguished scholar on Guatemala for "possible bias" and then I went behind you and replaced it with the article she cited which was the Time Magazine piece on Colonel John Webber of the US military mission. I almost hesitate to add anything cited to Historian Walter Lafeber. I also had to readd cited information you removed to fill in the blanks on the Bush administration's support for Guatemala. Your reason for removing it was that it didnt add anything significant to the history. Ok, so the impression given is that the Bush administration had a hands off approach because that history was missing from the section.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 18:39, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Now my job is going to be much harder because I have to use Susanne Jonas' and Walter Lafeber's notes to locate the information they cite in order to add more info to the "Cerezo Administration: new constitution, but continued violence" and the "Serrano government dissolution and recovery" sections. And Google books links are currently not working properly which happens occasionally, limiting my sources even more.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 19:13, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Alright, cite it if you must and I won't revert it. I just prefer to the use the sources directly as to avoid any potential biases that the person reusing the source might have. If you are confident that the historiography you have access to is reliable and objective, cite away. - Milexpert101 (talk) 21:30, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Dont get me wrong. You're an exceptional editor. I agree with you on using direct sources but for some reason Wikipedia encourages the use of scholarly work. If the Google Book links were functioning there wouldnt be a problem.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 21:35, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I don't get why scholarly sources are preferred. It seems like that is a bit counterproductive to Wikipedia's "mission," if you consider the possibilities of bias (very real possibility with scholars). - Milexpert101 (talk) 21:46, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I would think journalists would be less bias but US news reporting on Latin America is abominable. Mostly because of influences by their corporate sponsors and ownership in some cases.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 22:46, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

How do I use the same citation multiple times without having to use multiple references?--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 04:51, 7 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Use "Ibid." (from the Latin ibidem meaning "in the same place") - Milexpert101 (talk) 05:02, 7 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I cant manage to get even one image of the Salvadoran military for use here. Death squad killings especially. Forget about it.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 06:39, 7 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have seen quite a few images. The image criteria is very stringent, I know. Its frustrating when there is so much out there to utilize. - Milexpert101 (talk) 06:49, 7 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

The National Security Archive would have to provide it.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 06:52, 7 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

The Google Book links should start working soon. They go through cycles sometimes. I dont know what it's doing but right now my sources are extremely limited. You should get this book here. It's an essential:

  • Lafeber, Walter (1993). Inevitable Revolutions: The United States in Central America. New York City, NY: W. W. Norton & Company.--Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 06:25, 8 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Check out these pictures: http://www.csusmhistory.org/atkin008/gallery/ --Public Intelligence Analyst (talk) 07:20, 9 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

That's a good find indeed. Some of these are from the earlier phase of the civil war, when the Salvadoran armed forces were still issuing the West-German Heckler & Koch G3 rifle (purchased with US funds in the 1960s[1]) and wearing the iconic all-American M1 Helmet. There are even pictures of the aftermath of El Mozote, which is supposed to have never happened according to Reagan.

I'd like to get more information on the closing of the National University on June 26, 1980. Also, do you happen to have any pictures of the San Salvador Cathedral Massacre in May, 1979? - Milexpert101 (talk) 09:36, 10 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Guatemalan Civil War edit

Tone it down a notch, friend. Over the last year, I've come across a whole bunch of IPs and SPAs messing with stats on that page and related pages. All you had to do was provide a source/explanation/edit summary, something to show it wasn't vandalism. You didn't do any of those things, so I reverted you. If you have sources, go ahead and change it, next time just show some evidence that you are a serious editor when making similar changes. Cheers, Vanamonde93 (talk) 20:49, 29 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Also, if you have an account, why are you editing from an IP? Naturally that looks more suspicious. Vanamonde93 (talk) 20:50, 29 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Guatemalan Civil War 2 edit

Precisely why did you remove content sourced to a book, and remove the citation as well? I'm guessing you had a reason, but if you don't explain yourself I intend to revert you. Also, you should always provide an edit summary. Cheers, Vanamonde93 (talk) 03:35, 21 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

I removed the citation because the available evidence that I have found from Guatemala's human rights commission about the extent of political repression in Guatemala at the time seems to contradict the idea that repression declined to low levels after the "defeat" of the guerillas. Repression did not stop after the Arana regime declared an end to the "State of Siege," it in fact continued at high levels (780 killed and 534 "disappeared" between 1/73 and 9/73 that the human rights commission could confirm). Milexpert101 (talk) 07:18, 21 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Okay, fair enough. But you also removed the statistic about 42,000 civilians killed over six years. Why did you do that? Vanamonde93 (talk) 16:43, 21 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

False, I did not remove it, I moved it. Milexpert101 (talk) 23:19, 21 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia and copyright edit

  Hello Milexpert101, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Indonesian killings of 1965–66 has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 16:20, 1 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
