Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.
Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.
Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! -- Spangineer (háblame) 10:33, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for supporting my request for adminship. I learned this morning that I was granted my super powers. *shoots sparks across the room* Coffee 14:43, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
From Hinduism. I thought this was Spanish (Javon)? It is good that you started, I've already gathered material and will add soon.-- Jondel 02:15, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
It is possible that it came from India. The word tu which meaning you in Spanish can also be found I think in Sanskrit. There is a latin word very similar to Tatay (father). -- Jondel 02:38, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
Uhh , is there a reason that you hesitate to mention Indologists like Pasricha?-- Jondel 05:53, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
I went to the bookstore and found the word sabun for soap in Hindu.So it is possible that soap came from India(?) Anyway it is amazing. How did you know this? Are you Indian -- Jondel 23:27, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
I'm studying Yoga and attempting meditation. I read about Yoga philosopy, patanjali. But I attend mass on Sundays. I have many Indian friends. Another Indian word is tuum which can be found in Latin and is similar to tu in Spanish.Namaste. -- Jondel 05:22, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
You did an impressive job with this! Since it is related to the Philippines, other wikipedians won't touch it. It was messy. I tried to research this on the internet but could not make a decent article. I just kept putting it off. Keep it up!!-- Jondel 06:38, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
Will help soon. And good work on the page cleanup __earth 07:09, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
Can you start an article on Maradia Lawana. It's the flipino version of ramayana. -- Dangerous-Boy
Hi Noypi380, just saw your edit on above. In "see also," u've added Asian Institute of Management, which is not related to IIMs in any direct manner, apart frm the fact that both belong to the category of Business Schools. Someone interested abt other b-schools shd go to the category; else, see also wd be cluttered with Wharton, INSEAD etc. Hence rv-ing ur edit. thought I shd leave a personal note -- Gurubrahma 08:40, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
Sure, you can remove the section. =) -- seav 09:29, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
The Spolarium article exists but what I meant was that you have a knack of improving and writing feature articles and religiously follow the wiki guidelines. I am planning to read up according the suggestion of your User page(Uhh maybe tommorrow). That the painting is a materpiece is very self-evident. There are still a lot of details that need investigation. My Philippino teacher told me that Luna used another name or made it appear that the author wasn't him. When the committee found out that the composer was an 'indio', they wanted to withdraw the prize. I believe that there is a lot that the world and even the Filipinos don't about the Philippines or about Filipinos. Maybe we should advertise ourselves more? Did you know that there was more treasure with gold coins etc. found from the sunken Manila Galelleons than the 'Pirate' Galleons of the Carribean'? Jacques Ceoustau(wrong spelling but the French ocean explorer regularly featured in National Geographic) regularly visited the Philippines in secret.-- Jondel 01:20, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
Hi, I think you did a very good job in condensing most of the article from the current events version. I did a bit of copyediting, mostly to move the article into the past tense, as the crisis is most likely over. I'm not really familiar with politics in the Philippines, but here are a few suggestions for improving the article:
Hi Noypi380! Yes I do know something about the topics you mentioned, although I have to search through my sources to give better details that what are already written in Wikipedia. Although I was too young to remember the events during those years, I have read a lot of accounts in those subjects; the best account that I have read was Dead Aim: How Marcos Ambushed Philippine Democracy by Conrado de Quiros.

Would this image be of any use? It could potentially replace Image:Pgma.jpg. It may not be quite as good, but I took it, so it's free. :) Coffee 09:52, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
Here is a copy of the reply I have made to your comment Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2005_November_19#Category:Philippine_sites_to_Category:Landmarks_of_the_Philippines:
Sorry to have dragged you into this Noypi. I really feel a location or place category is significant, however, I submit to due process.-- Jondel 05:36, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
