Miguel Pinero

I know nothing about plays but the "Nuyorican author" (New York in Latino?) and the URL at the top sugg vanity/advert? — Bill 20:47, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)

- Don't be too incredulous about "Nuyorican": i'm not sure whether they are sponsored or tolerated by the city, but there have long been persuasively formal street signs labeled "Loisaida Avenue" in "Alphabet City", IIRC renaming Avenue E on what Anglos call the Lower East Side. Of course, that being said, articles on Loisaida and Nuyorican culture would help establish that these terms have significant English currency rather than belonging in the Spanish WP & sp.

Well, the whole things a cut-and-paste from [1]. Question: if I spot a copyvio on things already vfd'd, what's the procedure? However, Pinero (and his best known work, "Short Eyes") is notable. Keep but copyvio should go, if that's the right sequence. --jpgordon {gab} 21:15, 17 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- BTW, "Nuyorican" is a very common term — maybe even dominant now — for New Yorkers of Puerto Rican ethnicity. And if it's a copyvio, it should simply be handled as such, no need to discuss further here. -- Jmabel | Talk 02:37, Oct 18, 2004 (UTC)
  - OK. It's just a copyvio now. Never mind. --jpgordon {gab} 03:00, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Keep but fix. The is the author/poet/playwright/actor that the movie Piñero (2001) was about. [2]
- Does it need a fix and redirect for the diacritical in his last name? (I'm still learning the wikipedia rules and conventions.)
