Hi, there. I reverted your edits to Latino as they put unneeded emphasis that Latino is also an Italian word. There has been a discussion for some time concerning this, and User:Henrymark has made very similar edits. Now, I'm not accusing you of being a sockpuppet, but your edits are very similar and I ask that you leave a comment on Talk:Latino to explain your edits, as otherwise the article may face another unproductive revert war. Thanks. Cowman109Talk18:02, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In case you did not catch that, some sources against your claims are:

If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content which gains a consensus among editors. --Hu1218:49, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
