'''Sergio Vallín Loera''' (born May 26, 1972) is a Mexican guitarist of the [[Music of Mexico|Mexican]] band [[Maná]].<ref name="CandelariaGarcía2004">{{cite book|last1=Candelaria|first1=Cordelia|authorlink1=Cordelia Candelaria|last2=García|first2=Peter J.|last3=Aldama|first3=Arturo J.|title=Encyclopedia of Latino popular culture|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=3uD6PKXl3q4C&pg=PA513|accessdate=27 June 2011|year=2004|publisher=Greenwood Publishing Group|isbn=978-0-313-33211-1|pages=512–513}}</ref> Vallín was born in [[Mexico City]], where he lived for the first ten years of his life until he moved with his family to [[Aguascalientes]], capital of the state of the same name. Thus he has nicknamed himself "Hidrocálido", after one of the [[demonym]]s for his adopted city.

==Early music==
He had his first contact with music when he became part of a local student music group when he was 8. At the age of ten he began to feel attracted to bands like [[The Beatles]], [[The Rolling Stones]], and [[The Doors]]. When he was thriteen in Aguascalientes, he took classical guitar lessons. He received his first salary as a musician, when he began to give private guitar lessons to other young kids in his same age group. He formed the band "Wando" with his siblings Rocío and Fernando Vallín, and Emilio. "Wando" won first place in the contest "Valores Juveniles Bacardí" in 1993 in the group category with "Puedo gritarlo frente a ti". ([[Ana Bárbara]] won first prize in the singles category in the same contest).

During a [[Luis Miguel]] concert, Sergio met guitarist Kiko Cibrián, to whom he gave a copy of his guitar [[Demo (music)|demo]]. The demo passed from person to person until it reached [[Fernando Olvera|Fher Olvera]], Maná vocalist, who was looking for a guitarist for the band after the departure of Ulises Calleros and César "Vampiro" López. Olvera was greatly impressed with Vallín's style, and asked him to audition. Fher was very pleased with Sergio's audition, telling Sergio: "eres un bombon asesino", meaning "he's really good". Vallín was chosen after trying out more than eighty guitarists and since 1994 has formed part of Maná.

==Maná==
After a few collaborations with the band, doing covers of "Celoso" from [[Los Panchos]] and "Fool in the rain" from [[Led Zeppelin]], Maná recorded ''Cuando los ángeles lloran'' in 1995, the first studio album with Sergio as lead guitar. Vallín has recorded four other studio albums [[Sueños Líquidos]] (1997), [[Revolución de Amor]] (2002), [[Drama Y Luz]] (2011), and [[Cama Incendiada]] (2015) as well as the [[Maná MTV Unplugged]] (1999).

==Composer==
The tour "Jalisco Power" alongside [[Carlos Santana]] holds special significance to Sergio Vallín. They had previously composed "Corazón Espinado" specially for Santana which now features on his production ''[[Supernatural (Santana album)|Supernatural]]''. Sergio has admitted that playing next to the idol of his early life has been one of the most gratifying events of his career.

Sergio's importance to the group has grown through the four albums. He debuted as a composer in ''Sueños Líquidos'', with the [[flamenco]] influenced song "Ámame hasta que muera". He debuted as a singer in ''Revolución de Amor'' with the theme "¿Por qué te vas?" dedicated to his parents. In this album he also composed "No voy a ser tu esclavo" and collaborated again with Santana in the guitar solo of "Justicia Tierra y Libertad". In ''Amar es Combatir'' he wrote three songs: the [[cumbia]] "Somos Mar y Arena", "Relax", and "Bendita tu Luz". Sergio, who is considered one of the best Latin guitarists, is an admirer of flamenco, [[Paco de Lucía]] and [[Tomatito]], and has become involved in projects outside of Maná. He has worked as the producer of new artists like [[Chío]] and [[Serralde]], and is currently working on the project "Escuela de Música México Contemporáneo".

== Correction ==

The song "Jalisco Power" alongside [[Carlos Santana]] holds special significance to Sergio Vallín. That was a tour, not a song. Look at the Spanish Wikipedia it says gira not cancion. I changed it. If someone wants to get snitty about sources look at the Spanish page. [[Special:Contributions/108.204.18.240|108.204.18.240]] ([[User talk:108.204.18.240|talk]]) 16:48, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

== Mistakes in the bio ==

"A los trece años vine con mi familia a Aguascalientes, donde vivo hasta la fecha, aquí fue donde en La Casa de la Cultura y de la mano del Maestro Rosales (qepd), tomé mis primeras clases de guitarra clásica" i.e. he took classic guitar lessons after his family moved to Aguascalientes when he was 13. The student group was when he was 8, long before the move. This is from the guy's own website https://sergiovallin.com/en/about-me/ But it probably won't count as a valid source because 3 white men haven't written about it in a book yet. I'm going to change it anyway. [[Special:Contributions/108.204.18.240|108.204.18.240]] ([[User talk:108.204.18.240|talk]]) 17:52, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

There are precious few media bits showing Juan and even fewer articles written about him. Fender published a rare gem as part of their Spanish heritage month.

:This page has confused Creole and Cajun they are two different groups creole vegan as a specific type of mix and later included others because of reclassification which universities go over. This page has included the Cajun’s as Creole when the Cajun were the Europeans that came over and the creole were the mixed. Creole is a specific mix of indigenous women who were later reclassified as negro or black since negro in Spanish means black. If you don’t have that basic understanding this page is pointless because it perpetuates lies from the lack of the foundational understanding of the particular mix of indigenous women who became known as negro or black and French or Spanish men. Knowing the history of Louisiana it should be clear that the ones that came there were French and Spanish men. The creole mix did not initially include the children of European women with Indigenous or negro males until later especially as it was illegal for the European women to procreate with non-European men and if that happened it was often with Irish indentured servants with negro males that they lived near and prior to a specific time period. The time line of this page is off and when I went to correct it I was blocked although I included genealogy and dna showing that creole was originally of indigenous women who were later reclassified as negro or black and French or Spanish men. The history of Texas and Louisiana would show that other mixes came later. Dna as well as Haplogroups show that it meant fathered by a French or Spanish man. There were over 20 sources included as well as locked Wikipedia pages going over the genealogy and dna as well as the other mixes such as mestizo and mestiaje. Again you have included Cajun in Creole and they are not the same. Shaia LaBeouff is Cajun not Creole Beyoncé along with her sister and mother as well as Don Lemon are creole not Cajun and if you read their bios you would know they come from Cajun men and indigenous women who were later reclassified as negro. Professor PhD Henry Louis Gates of Harvard University went over this when he did Don Lemons Finding Your Roots on the PBS special. So please correct the terminology as this page is completely confused from a lack of understanding of the differences of Creole and Cajun. I studied this subject in university and not only included my universities published works, but also other universities that have come to the same consensus and have explained the details this article is missing. Rather than getting upset over the information presented you should actually look at it to have a clear understanding.

== Question on reverting talk pages with warnings ==

I am new to [[WP:RCP]]. I've seen quite a few users remove warnings from their talk page. The first time I tried to revert this, WP warned me not to, but I saw you do this on an IP recently. Wondering the policy here? Sorry for the newbie question. [[User:Violetwtf|violetwtf]] ([[User talk:Violetwtf|talk]]) 06:47, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

:{{tps}} @[[User:Violetwtf|violetwtf]]: usually it's allowed to remove talk page warnings from one's own page ([[WP:OWNTALK]]), as it often means the user/IP has acknowledged it. Whether they stop vandalizing or not is another question, of course.

:(EC) [[WP:BLANKING]] should cover this topic. I observe this policy, but I revert some removals if they vandalize the posts by other users or distort their meaning. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:204.195.161.79&diff=prev&oldid=1143515604 That removal] might or might not fall under this category. Moot.

Per OWNTALK, "There is no need to keep them on display, and usually users should not be forced to do so." I think in terms of [[WP:CS]], given this is an IP, this is a good edit, but maybe an edit to BLANKING/OWNTALK to specifically reference anon users could be useful. [[WP:DRC]] seems to take a very strong stance against this behavior, though. [[User:Violetwtf|violetwtf]] ([[User talk:Violetwtf|talk]]) 07:06, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

== Hatfield/McCoy feud page. ==

First- thank you for all of your work. 🙏🏼
I'm writing in hope that you may be able to help me with some family history regarding the feud.
I wrote a paper in college that I wish I still had. My primary source book showed my great grandfather as being one of the key players in the beginning of the conflict. His name was John Whitt. Just wondering if you may have run across that name at some point.

I'm sure you saw many different variations of the stories. I'm sure your story came from multiple sources or so I would guess.

Thank you very much for your time.

==[[:Anti-LGBT curriculum laws in the United States]] article==
Did you really review [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anti-LGBT_curriculum_laws_in_the_United_States&diff=next&oldid=1143799620 my edits and edit summary]? I doubt it otherwise it is inconceivable you would so blithely revert my edit and allow this flawed and biased article to stand unchallenged. "Don't say gay" is political agitprop, mouthed and pushed by ideological warriors who object to any restraints on sexualizing minors, starting in kindergarten. As Wikipedia has deemed almost all non-MSM publications that do not lean left as unreliable, the sources which POV-pushing editors use all confirm the bias, as seen in the Anti-LGBT curriculum article. Don't you care?

The moronic deus ex machina term "Don't Say Gay" (which has no basis in reality) should be referenced as being just that and nothing more, not given pride of place in article titles, ledes, headers, summaries, etc. [[Special:Contributions/67.84.230.45|67.84.230.45]] ([[User talk:67.84.230.45|talk]]) 00:17, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

::This page has confused Creole and Cajun they are two different groups creole vegan as a specific type of mix and later included others because of reclassification which universities go over. This page has included the Cajun’s as Creole when the Cajun were the Europeans that came over and the creole were the mixed. Creole is a specific mix of indigenous women who were later reclassified as negro or black since negro in Spanish means black. If you don’t have that basic understanding this page is pointless because it perpetuates lies from the lack of the foundational understanding of the particular mix of indigenous women who became known as negro or black and French or Spanish men. Knowing the history of Louisiana it should be clear that the ones that came there were French and Spanish men. The creole mix did not initially include the children of European women with Indigenous or negro males until later especially as it was illegal for the European women to procreate with non-European men and if that happened it was often with Irish indentured servants with negro males that they lived near and prior to a specific time period. The time line of this page is off and when I went to correct it I was blocked although I included genealogy and dna showing that creole was originally of indigenous women who were later reclassified as negro or black and French or Spanish men. The history of Texas and Louisiana would show that other mixes came later. Dna as well as Haplogroups show that it meant fathered by a French or Spanish man. There were over 20 sources included as well as locked Wikipedia pages going over the genealogy and dna as well as the other mixes such as mestizo and mestiaje. Again you have included Cajun in Creole and they are not the same. Shaia LaBeouff is Cajun not Creole Beyoncé along with her sister and mother as well as Don Lemon are creole not Cajun and if you read their bios you would know they come from Cajun men and indigenous women who were later reclassified as negro. Professor PhD Henry Louis Gates of Harvard University went over this when he did Don Lemons Finding Your Roots on the PBS special. So please correct the terminology as this page is completely confused from a lack of understanding of the differences of Creole and Cajun. I studied this subject in university and not only included my universities published works, but also other universities that have come to the same consensus and have explained the details this article is missing. Rather than getting upset over the information presented you should actually look at it to have a clear understanding.

Hi {{user|Materialscientist}}, in the recent times I have noticed that some of the ip editors have targeted the pages in this category: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Assembly_constituencies_of_Andhra_Pradesh by removing the available content unexplained.

ip editors: [[User talk:2601:41:C500:4D80:A087:1920:418:7634]], [[User talk:2601:41:c500:4d80:fc70:ea34:7b44:120d]] , [[User talk:2601:41:c500:4d80:3057:6a14:eae4:a16f]], [[User talk:2601:41:c500:4d80:d5c5:22da:2f10:a4d9]] , [[User talk:2601:41:c500:4d80:25da:2645:11d3:616a]] and many more ip's in this range. I doubt it to be a single person removing large amount of content multiple times even after multiple wiki editors rv it and notices on the respective talk pages. I hope you will block them as many of the pages are vandaled by these editors. [[User:456legend|456legend]]([[User talk:456legend|talk]]) 08:25, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi! I was referred to you by Binksternet. There have been some ongoing disruptive edits from IPs on the pages for Devo's ''[[Oh, No! It's Devo]]'' and ''[[Shout (Devo album)|Shout]]''. He mentioned you'd dealt with similar vandalism on their ''[[Something for Everybody (Devo album)|Something for Everybody]]'' page. (I also had to clean up similar edits on the ''[[Duty Now for the Future]]'' and ''[[Freedom of Choice (album)|Freedom of Choice]]'' pages a while back, and someone caught one at ''[[Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!]]''.) Can we take action against this to try and prevent further disruptive editing? Perhaps blocking the IPs or locking down the pages temporarily? Thanks!

== subject pages rather than accounts? ==

Hi, I've noted many category removals with a "refers to subject pages rather than accounts" rationale but I don't get it (probably because English is not my native language). Could you clarify it to me? About the "unsourced" part of the rationale, I've noted that in many (most?) cases the categories are justified by some sourced text, eg. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lisa_(rapper)&diff=prev&oldid=1146796011 here] the text says "''In April 2019, she became the most followed K-pop idol on Instagram, with 17.4 million followers at the time.'''[REF]''' As of April 2021, she became the first and only K-pop idol to amass 50 million followers, as she continues to set engagement and follower count records on the platform.'''[REF]'''''", or [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ros%C3%A9_(singer)&diff=prev&oldid=1146795997 here] it says "''As of March 2023, Rosé is among the top 10 most-followed Korean individuals on Instagram, with over 69 million followers.'''[REF]'''''", or [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Erika_Nardini&diff=prev&oldid=1146796004 here] "''Erika Ayers (formerly Nardini) is an American businesswoman and CEO of the digital media company Barstool Sports.'''[REF]'''''" and "''In 2016, Ayers was named the CEO of Barstool Sports.'''[REF]'''''" But again it is indeed possible that I am missing something here.

== Piscina Mirabilis update ==

Dear, you left a message for modifications I made.

I'm new to this, so errors are inevitable.

Still, since I've invested valuable time I try to be effective and offering quality content based on sources I found on the web.

I may not necessarily agree with moderators simply reversing all the modifications I made, when you may object only to parts, but still.

One could reverse or reinstate only the parts that are a bother, but I'm unsure if this is how it works.

I feel it's a crude tool casting aside with slight of hand all the effort and time of the person who tried to do some earnest diligent work, both in researching as in redacting the article as it was, for one reason only, create interesting content for all!

I'm not an ideologue...

I have 2 questions for the moderators, for now:

- the original article has (had) some unsourced assertions ( tagged with [needed citation] ) on the private vs. military purpose of the cistern (repeating itself on other Wiki-pages where the Piscina Mirabilis is mentioned, equally without identifiable references, easy to copy-paste ...). How and who does the judging at Wiki of what is finally accepted? None of the sources I found (i.e. official recent local websites and some more recent scientific publications I added) ever mention the cistern as being for use of an unidentified private villa. Only on Wiki I find this being repeated as more likely. I remain unconvinced... Therefore I added some "invisible comments" to provoke a debate, but I'm being totally ignorant if this will lead to a meaning exchange of fact-based opinions.

- the original article has 2 notes at the bottom saying it is a stub. Since I modified, restructured and added lots of info to the article is this comment still considered pertinent? I won't erase those notes, of course, but moderators should consider to do just that if they feel it's no longer a stub. Not my call... but ...

==Empty categories==
Hello, Materialscientist,

The process for handling empty categories is to tag them CSD C1 and they then sit in [[:Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion]] for 7 days. Often the categories are only temporarily empty and the tag is removed. Or we discover that the categories were emptied "out of process" and the emptying has to be reversed. I'd appreciate it if you handled empty categories like other administrators do and not just delete them immediately when you come across them unless there are other factors (like socking or vandalism).

== stop that "source" madness and the reverting as a measure to deal with it ==

Thanks for the message and the polite tone, you have indeed commendable behavior in this regard. However,
# It's OK to require "source", but you are going far too far when you revert where a "refnec" would suffice.
# reverting is just lazy (well, since you actually worked more to write your message to me, the laziness obviously doesn't apply in your case, but, still...), unless the content is so dubious it borders vandalism.
# actually a refnec is not even appropriate, such source don't belong here but in the main [[pneumatic motor]] article, where they already are. Putting sources outside of the main everywhere the content is mentioned would just result in a mess difficult to deal with (hunting ref everywhere they are quoted, since AFAIK wikipedia lacks a global ref repository)
I am not interested in such interaction (no need to reply in anyway) and will just disengage from the article. Fix it yourself to your liking (or just stop pretending you care about it, since the version you reverted to is obviously inappropriate, lacking the mention of the main and focusing on "DiPietro")

They were either going about it in a noob way, or were being totally genius. Either way, they're not a vandal, I doubt these circumstances will conspire again, and I plan on unblocking unless you object. -- [[user:zzuuzz|zzuuzz]] [[user_talk:zzuuzz|(talk)]] 08:27, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

== HPmuem ==

I corrected the spelling for "mueum" to "museum" in a domain-name. This is clearly stated in my edit summary. You (mis)used the Rollback system in order to reinstate the erroneous spelling.

[[WP:Rollback]] says:
{{tqb|text=Standard rollback may be used:
# To revert obvious vandalism and other edits where the reason for reverting is absolutely clear
# To revert edits in your own userspace
# To revert edits that you have made (for example, edits that you accidentally made)
# To revert edits by banned or blocked users in defiance of their block or ban (but be prepared to explain this use of rollback when asked to)
# To revert widespread edits (by a misguided editor or malfunctioning bot) unhelpful to the encyclopedia, provided that you supply an explanation in an appropriate location, such as at the relevant talk page
Use of standard rollback for '''any other purposes – such as reverting good-faith changes''' which you happen to disagree with – is likely to be considered '''misuse of the tool'''. When in doubt, use another method of reversion and supply an edit summary to explain your reasoning.

If rollback is used accidentally instead of undo to '''revert a good faith edit''', you could take a quick look to see if there is anything in the article you could improve '''(like a typo)''' and while making that edit also add the reason for reversion.}}

If there is a compelling reason why you want "HPmueum" in the article when a Google search for "HPmueum" ''only shows this single article on WP '''because it is a typo''''' then you'll need to justify why that's better than my correction to "HPmuseum" which has abundant Google hits.

Please only use Rollback for its intended purposes in future. [[Special:Contributions/49.179.13.151|49.179.13.151]] ([[User talk:49.179.13.151|talk]]) 10:56, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi! I saw that you reverted some edits [[Milan Mijatović|here]] using Huggle, which was certainly well-intentioned. However, as you can see in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Milan_Mijatovi%C4%87&diff=prev&oldid=1148228596&diffmode=source this diff], that resulted in addition of content that unambiguously constitutes vandalism.

==[[Alexander Vasilyevich Alexandrov]]==
Something has gone really wrong here. Apparently, a bot under your name has moved/renamed the above article to [[Aleksandr Varlamov (composer, born 1883)]]. I am guessing that this is some kind of political move, in connection with the current events in Ukraine. I shall attempt to undo as much of the mess as I can, bearing in mind that the bot has changed six redirects to the page. I should add that there is no mention of Varlamov in the article itself, and (having researched the Alexandrovs myself in the past) I have not heard the name Varlamov used in connection with them. [[User:Storye book|Storye book]] ([[User talk:Storye book|talk]]) 12:37, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
: Update. I have managed to correct the name of the article, however the redirects appear to be a mess, which I cannot undo (and have not tried to), because every time I click on them, the redirects reverse themselves. Please would you kindly look at the redirects involving the .Alexander Vasilyevich Alexandrov article and check that all the variations of A.V. Alexandrov's name are all going to Alexander Vasilyevich Alexandrov? Also, I don't know who Aleksandr Varlamov was, or whether there was ever an article about him? [[User:Storye book|Storye book]] ([[User talk:Storye book|talk]]) 12:53, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
::Sorry, I was sorting out patronymics and moved a wrong article (there are two unrelated composers named Aleksandr Varlamov). We don't use patronymics in article titles, and Aleksandr is a better transliteration of his name, so the idea was to move his article to [[Aleksandr Aleksandrov (composer)]]. [[User:Materialscientist|Materialscientist]] ([[User talk:Materialscientist#top|talk]]) 21:08, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
::: Thank you. I believe that it would be best to leave the title of Alexander Vasilyevich Alexandrov as it is, because he is always known by that full name in cyrillic or in English, or as A.V. Alexandrov. His name in those forms is now iconic (like JFK, John F. Kennedy etc). Up to now, it has not been commonly transliterated in a different way. So anyone searching for his article is going to be looking for one of those two titles. Without the patronymic it would look really odd. I hope that helps.

== Ukrainian women mathematicians ==

You appear to have recently removed [[:Category:Ukrainian mathematicians]] from all members of its NON-DIFFUSING subcategory [[:Category:Ukrainian women mathematicians]]. This is a mistake. Because the subcategory is non-diffusing, all members of the subcategory need to remain within [[:Category:Ukrainian mathematicians]] or one of its diffusing subcategories. Please fix the mess you have created. —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 17:17, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

:: Reverting would be a bad idea because in many cases that person did not exist in the daughter category, i.e. their gender was undefined in the category.
::1) Could you please point me to where, who and why have decided that such categories are non-diffusing? Thanks.
::2) I guess the issue can be fixed by either 2a) adding a more specific defining category like [[:Category:21st-century Ukrainian mathematicians]], or 2b) by copying the person back to the parent category (e.g. [[:Category:Ukrainian mathematicians]]), which I will do later today.

:::Re (1): See [[WP:ALLINCLUDED]] "Subcategories defined by gender, ethnicity, religion, and sexuality should almost always be non-diffusing subcategories". The purpose is to avoid ghettoizing people in these subcategories in a way that prevents them from being visible as part of the larger parent category. Similar language has been included in our categorization guidelines since February 2010, but I think that is just a change in nomenclature; before that, non-diffusing categories were called "distinguished categories". This material was moved into Wikipedia:Categorization in February 2009, from its previous home in [[Wikipedia:Categorization and subcategories]]. The idea of having distinguished categories (now non-diffusing categories) was already present there in 2008, when it referred to [[Wikipedia:Categorization/Gender, race and sexuality]] for more details. The idea of avoiding ghettoization of gender-specific categories was already present there in 2005, but in a version that did not consider the possibility of non-diffusing categories. The first clear discussion I can find of avoiding diffusion for gender and ethnicity based subcategories is from 2006, in [[Wikipedia talk:Categorization/Archive 9#Subcategorization question]], but I'm not sure that exact discussion was used as the basis for changing the guideline language.
:::In summary, suffice it to say that this has been consensus codified in our guidelines for many many years. —[[User:David Eppstein|David Eppstein]] ([[User talk:David Eppstein|talk]]) 21:48, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

== Edit of Foreign involvement in the Russian invasion of Ukraine ==

Hello. Sorry, I did not write an explanation.
The reason for my edit is the irrelevance of blaming the war and violating the neutrality of Wikipedia and what US special forces are doing. [[User:Parham wiki|Parham wiki]] ([[User talk:Parham wiki|talk]]) 11:27, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

== Juan Calleros ==

The parts you removed were from the Spanish language wikipedia page. I said so in the edit comment. There is precious little information about him. Even very little in Spanish. There is nothing I know of in English. If someone has anything they should add it. But I think it's harsh to remove what little can be garnered. There are links to some videos (also Spanish) in the talk page, but I wouldn't know how to link them or where to put them.

== Please restore the correct you deleted ==

: Hello [[User:Materialscientist|Materialscientist]],
: You removed the changes I had made in consultation with [[Nina Kossman]]. For example, one of the original categories was "Russian writers"; you changed it to "Russian male writers" (why "male" when [[Nina Kossman]] is female?), so instead of "Russian male writers," I put "Russian women writers" category (although the first category you removed "Russian writers" would have been good enough, too). Then, on April 16 you removed the new "Russian women writers" category and put "Russian male writers" back. You asked me to explain my changes, and now I'm asking you to explain why you put the category "Russian male writers" for an author who is obviously a female and never claimed to be male. (I don't think there is any explanation for it, so I'm just asking to restore the removed content.) Another change I made (also in consultation with the author): in the section "Life and Career" I removed the mention of translations of her English work into Russian (with three citations). This was done in consultation with the author: since she is a bilingual author writing in both English and Russian, she doesn't want to attract attention to her work translated into Russian. Please restore the removed content. [[User:Hannayana|Hannayana]]

'''Juan Diego Calleros Ramos''' (born 19 April 1962) is a Mexican musician.

Calleros was born in [[Guadalajara]], Mexico. He began playing in a group at age 13. Along with [[Fernando Olvera|Fher Olvera]] and his brothers Ulises and Abraham, Juan was part of Sombrero Verde (1978–1985) which, in 1986, transformed to [[Maná]]. He has been an active member of Maná along with [[Fernando Olvera|Olvera]], [[Alex González (musician)|Alex González]] and [[Sergio Vallín]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/man-p34260/biography|title=Maná|last=Brown|first=Marisa|publisher=[[Allmusic]]|access-date=21 August 2011}}</ref>

He is known as the shyest member of the group. He rarely speaks at interviews. He does not contribute vocals or songwriting. Yet along with Fher he has remained as one of the original members of the group through all its changes.

== Family ==
He is married to Erika and has a daughter Paola. He has 11 siblings. His brother Ulises is the representative for Maná to this day. His brother Abraham who had been a member during the inception and early years as Sombrero Verde, got disenchanted with the lack of success of the original line up and left without returning. Juan's sister Alicia was manager for a while in the groups early years.

'''''Cuando Los Ángeles Lloran''''' (English: ''When the Angels Cry'') is the eighth album and fourth studio album by [[Mexican rock]] band [[Maná]]. It was the first album to feature their new guitarist [[Sergio Vallín]] replacing Ulises Calleros & César "Vampiro" López. As of 1996, it sold over 1.5 million copies.<ref>{{Cite web|last=LOS40|date=2002-06-27|title=Biografía de Maná|url=https://los40.com/los40/2002/06/27/actualidad/1025128800_269336.html|access-date=2021-01-01|website=LOS40|language=es}}</ref>

''Cuando Los Ángeles Lloran'' was nominated for a 1996 [[Grammy Award]] for [[Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album|Best Latin Pop Performance]].

== History ==
The foundations of the group were laid down around 2005 towards the end of [[A.N.I.M.A.L.]]'s run when Andrés Giménez and Alex González began discussing the idea of forming a band together, eventually bringing in Sr. Flavio to play bass in 2011 and finalising the lineup in 2012 with the addition of Andreas Kisser on lead guitar. After self-producing their album in several different locations across South America, the group signed to [[Roadrunner Records]] and released their debut single, ''Maldita Historia'', on 30 September 2013.<ref>[http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/de-la-tierra-featuring-sepultura-guitarist-debut-single-available-for-streaming/ DE LA TIERRA Featuring SEPULTURA Guitarist: Debut Single Available For Streaming] [[Blabbermouth.net]]. 30 September 2013. Retrieved 26 January 2014.</ref> The album was released on 14 January 2014.

The band followed up with ''[[Drama y Luz]]'' in April 2011. Their most recent album is ''[[Cama Incendiada]]'', which was released in early 2015.

The band's sound draws from [[pop rock]], [[progressive rock]], [[Latin pop]], [[Calypso music|calypso]], [[reggae]], and [[ska]] music genres. They initially received international commercial success in [[Latin America]] and [[Spain]] and have since gained popularity and exposure in the US and around the world.

== History ==

=== 1986–89: Formation and early releases ===
[[File:Maná - Rock in Rio Madrid 2012 - 65.jpg|thumb|Fher, lead singer]]

Maná was formed in 1986 by [[Fernando Olvera|José Fernando "Fher" Olvera]] (vocals), Ulises Calleros (guitar), and Juan Calleros (bass guitar), who had been performing together in a band called Sombrero Verde since the mid-1970s and disbanded in 1983.<ref name="Handsome">{{cite news|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1998/aug/21/entertainment/ca-15058|title=In Any Language, Mana Is a Handsome Hit|last=Doss|first=Yvette C.|work=[[Los Angeles Times]]|date=21 August 1998|access-date=23 March 2012}}</ref> The three placed an advertisement in the local [[Guadalajara]] newspaper looking for a drummer to complete a new band, to which 15-year-old American [[Alex González (musician)|Alex González]] applied and soon joined the group.<ref name="Handsome" /> Maná's first album was titled "Maná" and was released on 12 May 1987 on [[A&M Records]]. Maná signed to [[PolyGram]] but became unhappy with the direction the label was taking the band and switched to [[Warner Music]] shortly before the release of the group's second album, ''[[Falta Amor (album)|Falta Amor]]''.<ref name="Allmusic">{{cite web|url=http://allmusic.com/artist/man-p34260/biography|title=Maná – Biography|last=Brown|first=Marisa|work=Allmusic|publisher=Rovi Corporation|access-date=28 March 2012}}</ref>

A year passed before the album garnered its first hit single, "Rayando el Sol". The group toured heavily in support of the album, performing more than 250 times throughout Latin America, including shows in Mexico, [[Peru]], [[Ecuador]], and [[Colombia]].{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}

=== 1990–96: Commercial success ===
[[File:Maná - Rock in Rio Madrid 2012 - 51.jpg|thumb|left|Rock in Rio Madrid 2012]]

In 1991, they added two new members to the group Iván González on keyboards and César "Vampiro" López on guitar. Ulises Calleros no longer performed with the group, but became one of their managers. On 27 October 1992, the band released ''[[¿Dónde Jugarán Los Niños?]]'', an album that spawned several hits (including "Vivir Sin Aire", "Oye Mi Amor", and "De Pies a Cabeza"). The record sold over 3 million copies worldwide and became the best-selling Spanish-language rock album of all time.<ref name="Burden">{{cite news|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1999/jun/19/entertainment/ca-47944|title=The Burden of Success|last=Valdes-Rodriguez|first=Alisa|date=19 June 1999|access-date=28 March 2012|work=The Los Angeles Times|publisher=Tribune Company}}</ref> The band undertook an international tour with 268 concerts in 17 countries.{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}

In 1994, López and Iván González left the group due to musical and personal disputes.<ref name="Reshaped">{{cite news|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1995-11-02/entertainment/ca-64097_1_rock-band|title=Reshaped, Tougher Mana Fights Back With 'Angeles'|last=Lopetegui|first=Enrique|work=The Los Angeles Times|publisher=Tribune Company|date=2 November 1995|access-date=29 March 2012}}</ref> Fher Olvera and [[Alex González (musician)|Alex González]] felt that their departure offered an opportunity to reinvent the group's sound, and searched throughout Mexico, Spain, and Argentina to find a new guitarist.<ref name="Reshaped" />

In the meantime, Maná released the live album ''[[Maná en Vivo]]'' before choosing Mexican guitarist [[Sergio Vallín]] to replace Calleros and López.<ref name="Allmusic" /> In 1995, the band recorded a Spanish version of [[Led Zeppelin]]'s "[[Fool in the Rain]]" (Tonto En La Lluvia) for the tribute album ''[[Encomium: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin|Encomium]]''.<ref name="Reshaped" />

[[File:Maná - Rock in Rio Madrid 2012 - 38.jpg|thumb|Lead singer Fher Olvera and Juan Calleros performing at Rock in Rio Madrid 2012]]

On 25 April 1995, the group released ''[[Cuando los Ángeles Lloran]]''. The album was noted for its stylistic departure from the band's previous work, which saw the group experimenting with [[funk]] and [[soul music]] genres.<ref name="Reshaped" /> Olvera explained shortly after the release of the album, "Basically, we're still the same Maná, but we're going through a funky, soulish stage. We want to have some fun and be a little louder."<ref name="Reshaped" /> The initial reaction to ''Cuando los Ángeles Lloran'' was mixed and the first single, the funk-influenced "Déjame Entrar", failed to reach the top ten on the [[Mexican Singles Chart]].<ref name="Reshaped" /> However, the album later caught on and sold 500,000 copies in the United States alone within five months of release.<ref name="Reshaped" />

=== 1997–2007: ''Sueños Líquidos'', ''Revolución de Amor'', and ''Amar es Combatir'' ===
In 1997, the group released ''[[Sueños Líquidos]]'', an album about the highs and lows of love, with songs like "Clavado en un bar" and "En el Muelle de San Blás", recorded in [[Puerto Vallarta]] and released simultaneously in 36 countries. The recording received a [[Grammy Award]] for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album. The group performed acoustically in [[Miami]] for Latin America's ''[[MTV Unplugged]]'' program. A final version of the performance was mixed at [[Conway Recording Studios]] in [[Hollywood, Los Angeles|Hollywood]], and the band released ''[[Maná MTV Unplugged]]'' on 14 May 1999.<ref name="Burden" />

In 2002, to blend their sound with that of rock and roll from the sixties and seventies, the band recorded ''[[Revolución de Amor]]''. They won their fourth Grammy for the album. The band released a new version of "Eres mi Religión" for the Italian market in 2003, as a duet with Italian musician [[Zucchero]], and also performed with Zucchero in a new recording of his "[[Baila morena (Zucchero and Maná song)|Baila Morena]]". This same year they participated in the annual [[Luciano Pavarotti|Pavarotti]] & Friends concert, along with [[Queen (band)|Queen]], [[Deep Purple]], [[Ricky Martin]], [[Andrea Bocelli]], Zucchero, and [[Bono]].

[[File:Maná - Rock in Rio Madrid 2012 - 06.jpg|thumb|220px|Fher Olvera performing at Rock in Rio Madrid 2012]]

In 2006, after a four-year hiatus, they released their seventh studio album, ''[[Amar es Combatir]]''. It reached #4 on the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' Top 200 in its first week, selling over 60,000 copies in the first week. Their first single off the album, "Labios Compartidos", rose to the top of the music charts upon its debut in July, when the group played the song live at the Premios Juventud. ''Amar es Combatir'' has sold over 644,000 copies, and the Amar es Combatir Tour in promotion of the album grossed more than $35 million.<ref name="Lluvialatin" />

In 2008, Maná released a live album entitled ''[[Arde El Cielo]]'', in both a CD and CD/DVD package. This release shows the band performing during the Amar es Combatir Tour in support of ''Amar es Combatir''.{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}

On 29 March 2007, Puerto Rico's Channel 4, WAPA's News program, reported that Maná publicly supported [[Puerto Rico]]'s prospective independence from the United States.

Various of their songs have political inspirations.

The band followed up with ''[[Drama y Luz]]'' in April 2011. Their most recent album is ''[[Cama Incendiada]]'', which was released in early 2015.

The band's sound draws from [[pop rock]], [[progressive rock]], [[Latin pop]], [[Calypso music|calypso]], [[reggae]], and [[ska]] music genres. They initially received international commercial success in [[Latin America]] and [[Spain]] and have since gained popularity and exposure in the US and around the world.

== History ==

=== 1986–89: Formation and early releases ===
[[File:Maná - Rock in Rio Madrid 2012 - 65.jpg|thumb|Fher, lead singer]]

Maná was formed in 1986 by [[Fernando Olvera|José Fernando "Fher" Olvera]] (vocals), Ulises Calleros (guitar), and Juan Calleros (bass guitar), who had been performing together in a band called Sombrero Verde since the mid-1970s and disbanded in 1983.<ref name="Handsome">{{cite news|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1998/aug/21/entertainment/ca-15058|title=In Any Language, Mana Is a Handsome Hit|last=Doss|first=Yvette C.|work=[[Los Angeles Times]]|date=21 August 1998|access-date=23 March 2012}}</ref> The three placed an advertisement in the local [[Guadalajara]] newspaper looking for a drummer to complete a new band, to which 15-year-old American [[Alex González (musician)|Alex González]] applied and soon joined the group.<ref name="Handsome" /> Maná's first album was titled "Maná" and was released on 12 May 1987 on [[A&M Records]]. Maná signed to [[PolyGram]] but became unhappy with the direction the label was taking the band and switched to [[Warner Music]] shortly before the release of the group's second album, ''[[Falta Amor (album)|Falta Amor]]''.<ref name="Allmusic">{{cite web|url=http://allmusic.com/artist/man-p34260/biography|title=Maná – Biography|last=Brown|first=Marisa|work=Allmusic|publisher=Rovi Corporation|access-date=28 March 2012}}</ref>

A year passed before the album garnered its first hit single, "Rayando el Sol". The group toured heavily in support of the album, performing more than 250 times throughout Latin America, including shows in Mexico, [[Peru]], [[Ecuador]], and [[Colombia]].{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}

=== 1990–96: Commercial success ===
[[File:Maná - Rock in Rio Madrid 2012 - 51.jpg|thumb|left|Rock in Rio Madrid 2012]]

In 1991, they added two new members to the group Iván González on keyboards and César "Vampiro" López on guitar. Ulises Calleros no longer performed with the group, but became one of their managers. On 27 October 1992, the band released ''[[¿Dónde Jugarán Los Niños?]]'', an album that spawned several hits (including "Vivir Sin Aire", "Oye Mi Amor", and "De Pies a Cabeza"). The record sold over 3 million copies worldwide and became the best-selling Spanish-language rock album of all time.<ref name="Burden">{{cite news|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1999/jun/19/entertainment/ca-47944|title=The Burden of Success|last=Valdes-Rodriguez|first=Alisa|date=19 June 1999|access-date=28 March 2012|work=The Los Angeles Times|publisher=Tribune Company}}</ref> The band undertook an international tour with 268 concerts in 17 countries.{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}

In 1994, López and Iván González left the group due to musical and personal disputes.<ref name="Reshaped">{{cite news|url=http://articles.latimes.com/1995-11-02/entertainment/ca-64097_1_rock-band|title=Reshaped, Tougher Mana Fights Back With 'Angeles'|last=Lopetegui|first=Enrique|work=The Los Angeles Times|publisher=Tribune Company|date=2 November 1995|access-date=29 March 2012}}</ref> Fher Olvera and [[Alex González (musician)|Alex González]] felt that their departure offered an opportunity to reinvent the group's sound, and searched throughout Mexico, Spain, and Argentina to find a new guitarist.<ref name="Reshaped" />

In the meantime, Maná released the live album ''[[Maná en Vivo]]'' before choosing Mexican guitarist [[Sergio Vallín]] to replace Calleros and López.<ref name="Allmusic" /> In 1995, the band recorded a Spanish version of [[Led Zeppelin]]'s "[[Fool in the Rain]]" (Tonto En La Lluvia) for the tribute album ''[[Encomium: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin|Encomium]]''.<ref name="Reshaped" />

On 25 April 1995, the group released ''[[Cuando los Ángeles Lloran]]''. The album was noted for its stylistic departure from the band's previous work, which saw the group experimenting with [[funk]] and [[soul music]] genres.<ref name="Reshaped" /> Olvera explained shortly after the release of the album, "Basically, we're still the same Maná, but we're going through a funky, soulish stage. We want to have some fun and be a little louder."<ref name="Reshaped" /> The initial reaction to ''Cuando los Ángeles Lloran'' was mixed and the first single, the funk-influenced "Déjame Entrar", failed to reach the top ten on the [[Mexican Singles Chart]].<ref name="Reshaped" /> However, the album later caught on and sold 500,000 copies in the United States alone within five months of release.<ref name="Reshaped" />

=== 1997–2007: ''Sueños Líquidos'', ''Revolución de Amor'', and ''Amar es Combatir'' ===
In 1997, the group released ''[[Sueños Líquidos]]'', an album about the highs and lows of love, with songs like "Clavado en un bar" and "En el Muelle de San Blás", recorded in [[Puerto Vallarta]] and released simultaneously in 36 countries. The recording received a [[Grammy Award]] for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album. The group performed acoustically in [[Miami]] for Latin America's ''[[MTV Unplugged]]'' program. A final version of the performance was mixed at [[Conway Recording Studios]] in [[Hollywood, Los Angeles|Hollywood]], and the band released ''[[Maná MTV Unplugged]]'' on 14 May 1999.<ref name="Burden" />

In 2002, to blend their sound with that of rock and roll from the sixties and seventies, the band recorded ''[[Revolución de Amor]]''. They won their fourth Grammy for the album. The band released a new version of "Eres mi Religión" for the Italian market in 2003, as a duet with Italian musician [[Zucchero]], and also performed with Zucchero in a new recording of his "[[Baila morena (Zucchero and Maná song)|Baila Morena]]". This same year they participated in the annual [[Luciano Pavarotti|Pavarotti]] & Friends concert, along with [[Queen (band)|Queen]], [[Deep Purple]], [[Ricky Martin]], [[Andrea Bocelli]], Zucchero, and [[Bono]].

[[File:Maná - Rock in Rio Madrid 2012 - 06.jpg|thumb|220px|Fher Olvera performing at Rock in Rio Madrid 2012]]

In 2006, after a four-year hiatus, they released their seventh studio album, ''[[Amar es Combatir]]''. It reached #4 on the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' Top 200 in its first week, selling over 60,000 copies in the first week. Their first single off the album, "Labios Compartidos", rose to the top of the music charts upon its debut in July, when the group played the song live at the Premios Juventud. ''Amar es Combatir'' has sold over 644,000 copies, and the Amar es Combatir Tour in promotion of the album grossed more than $35 million.<ref name="Lluvialatin" />

In 2008, Maná released a live album entitled ''[[Arde El Cielo]]'', in both a CD and CD/DVD package. This release shows the band performing during the Amar es Combatir Tour in support of ''Amar es Combatir''.{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}

On 29 March 2007, Puerto Rico's Channel 4, WAPA's News program, reported that Maná publicly supported [[Puerto Rico]]'s prospective independence from the United States.

Various of their songs have political inspirations. The [[liner notes]] for "Me Voy a Convertir en Un Ave," on the album ''Sueños Líquidos'', for example, notes that the song is "inspired by the book ''Pedro y el capitán'' by [[Mario Benedetti]] and dedicated to all those who, for defending an ideal of justice, are persecuted or find themselves imprisoned.

== There is no section detailing the 1973 breakup. ==

The breakup happened on January 5th, 1973. The page on [[Louisiana-Pacific]] mentions it. — Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:ThetaDeltaGamma|ThetaDeltaGamma]] ([[User talk:ThetaDeltaGamma#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/ThetaDeltaGamma|contribs]]) 21:41, 14 April 2022 (UTC) 

== Disconnected phrase ==

The sentence mentioning the "Crown-Zellerbach" building is without context: The Crown Zellerbach Building was built as the headquarters of Crown Zellerbach in San Francisco in 1959. I'd suggest copying over the text from the building's page: The building was originally the headquarters of the Crown Zellerbach, a Fortune 500 forest products conglomerate acquired by Sir James Goldsmith in a 1985 hostile takeover. The majority of the pulp and paper assets were sold to James River in 1986, which in turn became a part of Georgia-Pacific in 2000. (The brown paper container division became Gaylord Container). May not be the final solution but the only prior reference to Crown Zellerbach is in a phrase mentioning various mergers.

== Fungicide ==

I hadn't heard of antimicrobial claims till I tead this wikipedia article. But Grapefruit Seed Extract or Citrus Seed Extract has been claimed to have antifungal and fungicidal properties. It is used to kill fungi in tomato plats in agriculture and there seem to be quite a few studies about it being fungicidal.

Otherwise someone might want to look in google scholar for permitted sources.
