I see that you !voted Support of the original, but then reverted my addition of the original. First, is there a way that you can insert the original without the frame? Second, if the daguerrotype that is in Commons really is the original, then the copyright issue should be addressed because it is in the public domain due to its age. What do you want to do next?

Hi Lecen. My apologies that I was not able to help at the time. My head was in a different state. I made some small tweaks today. Please don't hesitate to call on me again, this time as I am now in a new frame of mind. Regards, Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 15:11, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

O que significa isto? Que comportamento amador é este? Essa sua reversão absurda contém erros gramaticais e apaga conteúdo válido e referenciado baseado em justificativa nenhuma! Isto é vandalismo! Minhas alterações não tornaram a seção demasiadamente extensa e alegar isto para reverte-la é simplesmente ridículo. Veja o que você está fazendo antes de se meter em uma discussão cujo teor você claramente desconhece. E escrevo em português porque você é brasileiro e ainda entende a tua língua materna, não? Seu comportamento é constrangedor! Chronus (talk) 02:58, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

Na primeira metade do século XIX, Recife era ainda a cidade mais rica do Brasil. Considero necessária a inserção de imagens da capital pernambucana naquele século; e inúmeros artigos destacados contam com imagens panorâmicas. Abraço.--Juniorpetjua (talk) 17:19, 26 June 2016 (UTC)

Your Governorate General of Bahia merger proposal of 2015: any discussion?
You marked the article Governorate General of Bahia for a merger proposal, but opened no discussion. Is there a rationale for the merger that you could put under "discussion", or should it just be erased? Thanks. Prburley (talk) 19:06, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
- Dear Prburley, that article, along with others which are related, was created by an user a few years ago. He started creating several articles there were nothing more than stubs and that would never grow larger than that. I thought that it would be wiser to simply erase it and redirect it to the main article: Colonial Brazil. Regards, --Lecen (talk) 19:14, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
- Per Wikipedia:Proposed mergers each merger proposal should start with a discussion--then the "proposed merge" tag. Hence the confusion here. I recommend leaving the articles as they are and removing the merger tags. Or, you could start an individual discussion for each proposed merger and re-post the proposed merger tag. What's your opinion? Thanks! Prburley (talk) 20:32, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

Hi. The
Você tem algum problema com Pernambuco? Pernambuco foi a capitania/província mais rica do Brasil na primeira metade do século XIX, e Recife era a cidade mais importante economicamente e politicamente no Brasil durante todo o século XIX atrás apenas do Rio de Janeiro (por motivos óbvios). Por que os dois artigos não têm nada a respeito e nenhuma foto de Pernambuco? Muito injusto. Muito estranho.--Juniorpetjua (talk) 03:14, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
Não estou entendendo a sua resistência. Eu estou inserindo uma fotografia maravilhosa da mesma época e em alta resolução. Conheço bem o Recife e sua história, e a área retratada na foto de 1851 não era tão relevante, isso não bastasse o tamanho da imagem.--Juniorpetjua (talk) 03:03, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
- @Lecen:, o que mais me admira é a sua teimosia em manter no artigo aquele trecho sobre a população escrava, mesmo após a inserção de uma fonte absolutamente fidedigna (IBGE), que você desprestigia em favor de um historiador irrelevante mesmo sabendo que o IBGE constitui a principal fonte para historiadores em se tratando de estatísticas populacionais. E até pela lógica... a gente sabe que no Rio de Janeiro e na Bahia havia mesmo muitos escravos ociosos a espera de compradores, mas dizer que até o Rio Grande do Sul tinha mais escravos que Pernambuco, sendo que Pernambuco era o maior produtor de açúcar e algodão do Império? É um completo despautério. Não creio que você, historiador que é, manterá no artigo um trecho incorreto mesmo ciente de que ele está errado. Abraço.--Juniorpetjua (talk) 20:48, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
Titles of nobility
Hi Lecen. Hope you are well. Just out of curiosity, I would like to pick your brain. I came across this Palácio Burnay, which I see is named after the Henrique Burnay, 1.º conde de Burnay. What I find odd is being called "of Brunay", when Burnay is in fact the person's surname. Normally such titles are named after a region, such as Conde de Portela, Duque de blabla, etc. Would you have any idea why the complement of this guy's title is his own surname? Thanks, Regards, Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 19:09, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
- Rui, is good to hear from you. The count you mentioned was a noble from Portugal, but it's safe to presume that nobility worked there and in Brazil essentially the same (except that in Brazil was not hereditary). People were granted noble titles according to deeds or places related to their deeds. Thus you have the Baron of Passagem, who made the passage of Humaitá during the Paraguayan War or the Duke of Caxias, named after the town in Maranhão he recaptured from rebels. There are curious cases such as the famous general Osório, who became Baron and later Marquis of Erval because he found a beautiful field of herbs ("Herval" in old Portuguese), during military maneuvers in his younger years, even though he became a noble not because of that, but because of his role as accomplished leader during the Paraguayan War. The last case are nobles who are given their last names. That occurred indeed. Remember the Viscount of Taunay? His surname was Taunay. It all depended of the emperor. He was the one who chose the names. --Lecen (talk) 19:36, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks Lecen. Quite a fount of knowledge on nobility and monarchies. I confess my ignorance, I had not heard of Taunay, and quite an accomplished gentleman he was - "escritor, músico, professor, engenheiro militar, político, historiador e sociólogo brasileiro". Interesting also to read about Erval. I see that "erval" refers to a field of erva-mate, in this dictionary identified as congonha.

Hi Licínio, how's it going? Jim has told me he plans to run this article at TFA on May 12. Does that work for you? I'm having trouble reducing the lead to 1175 characters ... I'm not sure which are the most important points. Which sentences from the lead should we keep?

In case you can't wait, simply mention that he had distinguished military career, fighting in several wars (X, Y, Z...) and also was a politician, serving as general deputy and minister of war.

- "Manuel Marques de Sousa, Count of Porto Alegre (1804–1875) was an army officer, politician, abolitionist and monarchist of the Empire of Brazil. His military career began in the late 1810s, and he later joined the struggle for the Brazilian independence and fought in the Cisplatine War during the 1820s. When his native province of Rio Grande do Sul was engulfed in a major secessionist rebellion from 1835 until 1845, he distinguished himself by remaining loyal to his country. In 1852, he led an army division during the Platine War in the invasion of the Argentine Confederation that overthrew its dictator. Porto Alegre also had a distinguished career in politics, being elected to the provincial legislature of Rio Grande do Sul, and founding the provincial Progressive-Liberal Party. He later entered the lower house of the Brazilian parliament and was briefly Minister of War. After returning to the military as one of the chief Brazilian commanders during the Paraguayan War (1864) and achieving important victories, he became an active advocate for the abolition of slavery and a patron in the fields of literature and science." push to talk, perhaps this?
