Most of the basic facts about me, you can read them above. I'm from the beautiful island of Puerto Rico, and very proud of it.
I believe I reached Wikipedia through a Yahoo!/Google search around 2004 or so... and, being the "hungry self-learner" that I am, I started browsing and reading articles. After months of continuous browsing, reading and editing articles at Wikipedia, I finally found the time to log in, and create my own account.
I'm married with the most wonderful woman in the world and I doubt I could ever find anyone better (and I'm not willing to find out either).
I'm not nearly as active on Wikipedia as I was years ago, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask.
My Interests
I have lots of interests in my life, and I enjoy reading (and writing!) about a lot of things. Some of my interests that I've shared in Wikipedia by writing or editing articles are:
This Boricua Tireless Contributor Barnstar is presented to User:Thief12 for his continous work on Music related articles. Presented by Tony the Marine 17:58, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
You can browse my "contributions" for a vast list of articles I've worked with, but here are a few ones I feel quite proud of.
One that I feel quite proud of is the article of one of my favorite music bands, Petra (band). I basically worked this one from scratch. I created almost the whole discography and almost all the articles on all the band members. I haven't worked in it in awhile, though.
I've also worked with a lot of articles of Puerto Rican politicians, creating countless of articles on current and former Senators, Representatives, mayors, etc.
Other articles I started, or worked extensively with, were...
Marcos Jiménez de la Espada (I knew nothing about this guy, but there was a request for translation from the Spanish article, and I worked it out)
Objetivo Fama (sort of a Puerto Rican American Idol)
I compiled this list a long time ago. I need to update it with what I've been working recently.
Ponce and Puerto Rico
I always try to work with articles related to my hometown, Ponce, or to my country, Puerto Rico. Here are a few related articles I've created and/or expanded.
WikiProject Film is a WikiProject dedicated to building a comprehensive and detailed guide to films on Wikipedia.
Our goals are to standardize the film articles in Wikipedia, improve Wikipedia coverage of films by adding, expanding and improving film articles, and serve as a central point of discussion for issues related to Wikipedia film articles.
I stopped compiling this a long time ago, but I'm currently sitting at over 20,000 edits.
My Closing
I also have some articles in Spanish, but I barely work with those (even though it is my native language). Visit my Spanish page to read more. I really should work more there to help with translations and stuff, hehehe.
I'm in no way taking whole credit for all the articles listed here. Wikipedia is a constant contribution of various people and sources, so I might work an article today and someone else might edit it completely. I think that's the beauty of it, but you can see what my interests are with this rough list. Like I said above, I'm not nearly as active here as I was years ago, but I still like to chime in every now and then.
