Talk:Tomas Batista
Thank you for the temporary protection of the original title in the article, Tomas Batista. When I first wrote the article, I left the title without accents. I did this because I wrote it in the English version of Wikipedia with the english people speaking people, in mind. I realized that there are many people who do not understand the usage of accents and therefore may have difficulty in accessing one of my articles (I have written over 70 mini-bios already). Since Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia and its articles are also in other web sites, such as Nationmaster, I wanted the articles to be very acessable. Mind you that I don't mind having the accents within the article itself, only in the title. I know that Wikipedia permits accents but, I think that Wikipedia doesn't say that you "MUST" have accents. My intentions are that English speaking persons, including the Latinos raised in English speaking countries and who do not understand the usage of accents, will be able to enjoy and appreciate my work. It is much easier to write Jose without the accent than with an accent and therefore more accessable. If the bylaws of Wikipedia state that it is a "MUST" that the titles contain an accent, then I personally will make the changes. Thank you for reading. User:Marine 69-71
