Articulo tremendamente estupido edit

es normal que este articulo no tenga version en español porque debe ser fruto de algun acomplejado con respecto a la cultura de Puerto Rico — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.107.243.3 (talk) 15:21, 20 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

  • It really takes a "smart" person to come to a well written "English" article and criticize it as "Stupid" in "Spanish". So, who is the so-called "stupid" one? :-) Tony the Marine (talk) 18:42, 20 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hiram Bithorn edit

Hiram Bithorn Sosa's father's family moved to Puerto Rico from St. Croix, Virgin Islands. They were the operators of a distillery at Hermon Hill. The Cruzan Rum distillery is operated by the Nelthropps descendants of Hiram Bithorn's grandfather. The family is from the Netherlands and was originally van Bithoorn. I am not supposed to comment from personal knowledge Tony but you are just guessing the family is English.RichardBond (talk) 14:16, 9 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Brilliant Article edit

I will write this in English & Spanish not only so more people can understand me but also in direct response to the person who called this a stupid article who obviously is only half-way informed on the subject. Escribo esto en ingles y en español no solo por que deseo que mas gente me entienda pero mas que nada lo hago para beneficio de la persona que llamó el articulo estupido quien obviamente sabe solo a medias de lo que habla.

This article is not only well written but also quite informative when it comes to the cultural and historical diversity of the island of Puerto Rico. It gives a perfect overview of the different influences that shaped the island in terms of history, culture and the various ethnic groups that helped make the people of Puerto Rico who they are today. Thank you for sharing this information. And for the person who called this stupid, I urge you to check your sources before you go to an article and insult its contents without have a basic and unbiased knowledge on what it is that you are talking about. Instead of bashing information provided, why not do something more constructive with your time and energy such as asking questions to the writer or perhaps do the research yourself if you feel the information provided needs editing. But calling someone or something stupid without studying or understanding completely the subject at hand makes one think that perhaps the one with a limited vocabulary and lack of information could be you.

Este articulo esta no solamente escrito muy bien si no que también es sumamente informativo sobre la diversidad cultural e histórica de la isla de Puerto Rico. Nos da una vista sobre las diferentes influencias que formaron la isla en términos de historia, cultura y los diversos grupos étnicos quienes ayudaron a hacer lo que es el pueblo de Puerto Rico de hoy. Mil gracias por compartir esta información. Y para la persona que dijo que este articulo es estúpido, le urjo que haga su tarea de revisar sus fuentes antes de insultar un articulo o la persona que lo escribió sin tener una básica sabiduría sobre de lo que esta hablando. En vez de llamar algo o alguien con un sobrenombre, por que no hace algo mas constructivo con su tiempo y su energía como hacerle preguntas al escritor original o quizás hacer su propia investigación sobre el tema si es que piensa que el articulo necesita ayuda. Pero llamar a algo o a alguien estúpido sin estudiar o comprender por completo de lo que se esta hablando hace a uno pensar que el que tiene un vocabulario limitado o poca información quizás sea usted.Crcam (talk) 13:37, 16 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

  • Thank you or your kind words User:Crcam. That is why I wrote the article so, that others can try to understand that Puerto Ricans are not only people who have Taino, Spanish and African blood in their veins. The Puerto Rican people are also made up of other non-Hispanic cultures. Thank you once more. Tony the Marine (talk) 22:30, 16 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
