Talk:Enciclopedia Libre Universal en Español

message: What exactly caused the split between Spanish 'pedia and its daughter project that came to be la Enciclopedia Libre? Unresolvably different objectives? If so, what are the differences? It seems rather illogical to divert manpower into two separate projects that could've been one combinedly better one. --Menchi 20:04 Feb 21, 2003 (UTC)

::This information as to why the split occured is important, perhaps the most important, part of the article yet it is missing.  What do we expect to learn in the future from this incident if most of it is shrouded in mystery?  If someone knows what happened, add it to the page.  I do not know what happens, but I will poke around and if I found out why they left I will add it to the page unless a very convincing arguement is presented here to change my mind. --ShaunMacPherson 05:10, 1 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: The split between Spanish 'pedia and la Enciclopedia Libre

message: I edited this from a wikilink into an external link. My understanding is that some sites are using dumps of Wikipedia that don't include the User: namespace, so linking a user page from an article is a bad idea. Correct me if I'm wrong about this. Graue 17:40, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: I agree with an earlier poster who asked this all-important question, which the article completely avoids.  Why did so many Spanish-speaking Wikipedians feel so strongly about Wikipedia that they felt it necessary to split from it?  What were the reasons given for the split?  deeceevoice 09:24, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The reasons for that was the idea to put ads in Spanish Wikipedia, but now that idea is totally out of mind right now, but the problems now are:
1. Some users from Enciclopedia Libre, want to change the server (or the name) of the spanish wikipedia , but Wikimedia Foundation set if we change te server of the es.wikipedia have to stop being wikipedia, because are not supported by Wikimedia Foundation
2. Another users want to merge the articles, very difficult thing, and the problems with the history of the articles. 
I hope that be useful for all you.  Alexan talk page 20:34, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: AGAIN, THE QUESTION IS "WHY?"

message: These ppl sound like terrible editors.  They are all likely: 1. paranoid 2. intractable 3. dramatic  I sure wish all editors in the English communtiy like that would voluntarily occupy themselves elsewhere.  Lotsofissues 12:26, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Good riddance 

message: I noticed that you need to login to read the Enciclopedia Libre, at least now that I try it. Does anybody knows anything about that? That seems very strange. --Walter  Do you have news? Report it to Wikizine 22:33, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I don't want to add personal guesswork, but it looks to me like the Spanish Wikipedia began exponential growth in June 2003, just as Bornis turned over control to the Wikimedia Foundation.  I don't know whether this also addressed the editorial concerns.  Currently the WMF isn't even mentioned in the article; I think it should go over the full list of concerns and discuss which have been met and which are still ongoing criticisms.

thread_title:  Wikipedia reforms should be discussed 

message: Wikipedia, posting metrics about how much better it does in comparison to the Spanish Revolt wiki sounds like internal scuttlebutt, marketing and severe conflict of interest. Cocoablini (talk). 18:20, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Isn't this page really a COI issue if wikipedia is describing it's competition??
