Picture edit

Does anyone know how to link to the picture that appears on the Spanish Wikipedia site, without copying and re-uploading it? -RussBlau 15:19, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC)

Copying and reuploading is the only way to do it.-gadfium 03:45, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Changes edit

Among other things, I changed this page so that it said that the school did not formally organize until 1933. The original page in Spanish says it "organized until 1933," but I don't think that makes sense in Spanish either. I think they left out a word in the Spanish, and the mistake was preserved in the translation, but I would appreciate confirmation of this. --Cromwellt | Talk 00:45, 8 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

Your interpretation's correct. The Spanish is ok, too -- where hasta is used with the sense of no fue sino hasta. Hajor 01:06, 8 May 2005 (UTC)Reply
Are you saying that the Spanish is correct? If it isn't, let's change it. --Cromwellt | Talk 07:45, 8 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

The Spanish is fine. Pedants might frown, but I don't have a problem with it. Hajor 13:39, 8 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

Merge? edit

How about merging this article with the "UANL" article?

Name change edit

I would propose changing the name of the article to Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León since all articles but the UNAM in Category:Universities and colleges in Mexico are listed under its official (Spanish) name. --Vizcarra 00:04, 19 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Apparently your proposal won out. However, IMO it ought to be moved (back) to Autonomous University of Nuevo León. See the guideline at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English).--Rockero 21:29, 4 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo LeónAutonomous University of Nuevo León – This is the form of the name listed in the opening. The general consensus seems to be to translate words that have essentially the same meaning in English and Spanish, such as autonomous and university. The practice is to not translate Nuevo in Nuevo León. John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:21, 15 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
