A fact from Ricardo Cruz (lawyer) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 6 December 2005. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that on Christmas Eve 1969, when California lawyer and noted political activist Ricardo Cruz was a law student at Loyola Law School, he was arrested for leading a march of several hundred demonstrators protesting the newly constructed, $4 million St. Basil's Cathedral?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2005/December.

Untitled

Saint Basil's is not a cathedral, but a parish church. Our Lady of the Angels is the current cathedral, and Saint Vibiana's is the former one. Fritz Keppler, Arlington VA

What was the issue sparking the protest at the church? The "why" is missing. ChiTwnG 22:03, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I think I have addressed both of these concerns.--Rockero 17:12, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Writings

He was also a poet and essayist. Some of his work is anthologized in Otras voces : escritos en español del Condado de Mendocino / [compilados por] Vivian A. Sotomayor Power. [Mendocino? Calif. : s.n., between 1994 and 1998] (No ISBN).--Rockero 23:11, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The poem anthologized in the book is called "El Amor de mis Amores". The authors are all from the Mendocino area, so the poet is probably a different "Richard Cruz". My mistake.--Rockero 21:54, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The other Ricardo Cruz

One of the singers for the Japanese Super Group JAM Project also goes by the name of Ricardo Cruz and has a page at: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Ricardo_Cruz_%28vocalist%29.

Perhaps someone who knows how to make a: if you meant ..., go here, could put one on the page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.27.89.234 (talk) 20:34, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
