== Clarification Request: Discrepancy in the Representation of Skin Tones in Mexico == |
|||
== Reevaluation of "Female homicides in Ciudad Juarez" == |
|||
Hello members of the WikiProject Mexico, I am writing to seek your assistance in addressing a matter of accuracy and representation in a Wikipedia article related to ethnicity and skin tones in Mexico.[[Talk:White Mexicans#47% reference|Talk:White Mexicans - Wikipedia]] |
|||
I recently edited the article [[Female homicides in Ciudad Juarez]] and would like to request a reevaluation of the article to be a part of WikiProject Mexico. Thank you very much! [[User:Cnovoa17|Cnovoa17]] ([[User talk:Cnovoa17|talk]]) 21:32, 21 April 2012 (UTC) |

== Carlos Fuentes == |
|||
[[Carlos Fuentes]] has a chance to reach the main page via [[WP:ITNC]], but his article's an unsourced mess at the moment--a shame for a guy so often described as Mexico's premier novelist. Would anyone be willing to help me and others with its expansion? Due to my ignorance of Spanish, the article is currently overly reliant on U.S. newspapers and critics.

There is an ongoing discussion on the article's talk page concerning a statistic claiming that 47% of Mexicans have light skin (this is the actual document that have this reference [http://www.conapred.org.mx/userfiles/files/Enadis-2010-RG-Accss-002.pdf a Encuesta Nacional sobre Discriminación en México 2010]. Upon closer examination, it appears that the source cited for this statistic does not explicitly state this percentage. A user claims that in the page 7 said this , but Instead, it mentions that 54% of women and 40% of men self-identify as having the three lightest skin tones on a scale of 9. (you can find this values in this source [http://www.conapred.org.mx/userfiles/files/Enadis-2010-RG-Accss-002.pdf Enadis-2010-RG-Accss-002.pdf (conapred.org.mx)] page 40 and 41). The claim about 47% seems to be derived from a simple average of these percentages, which may not accurately represent the data. In addition to not correctly specifying the number of people, this user indicates that 47% of Mexicans are light-skinned instead of indicating that "they choose the 3 lightest tones of a scale of 9 colors), and in the development of the article indicates that up to 47% of Mexicans are white, because according to him, having a European phenotype is synonymous with being white. No academic publication supports this. |

== LGBT culture in Puerto Vallarta == |
|||
'''Background:''' There was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Perth&oldid=499378455#Requested_move a previous requested-move survey] which ran from late May to mid June. There was a great deal of controversy surrounding the closure and subsequent events, which involved a number of reverts and re-reverts which are the subject of [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Perth|an ongoing arbitration case]]. There was [[Wikipedia:Move review#Perth.2C_Western_Australia_.28closed.29|a move review process]], which was closed with a finding that the original requested-move closure was endorsed; however, the move review process is relatively new and untried. — [[User:P.T.

I've started a new article on [[Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award]] winner [[Abel Barrera Hernández]], but the article is over-reliant on a very few English language sources.

Hi there! |

Mexico is listed as a developing country for the purposes of this contest, so articles related to it are eligible to be submitted to the contest. I encourage everyone here to sign up and compete with editors from around the world to create high-quality content! |
|||
Someone has submitted on Mexican politician and journalist [[Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Jorge_Prieto_Laurens|Jorge Prieto Laurens]] at Articles for Creation. The subject is clearly notable, but the author of the article has not provided any references. I'd normally try to provide these myself but, as I only have very basic Spanish and it seems that almost all of the sources on Laurens are in Spanish, I can't be much help here! So I was wondering if anyone at this project might have the time/will to help out with referencing this article? |

:I strongly agree with you. In my time editing Wikipedia, I have always looked for a MOS for places, names and even things in Spanish. The creation of one will certainly bring up some order in every Spanish-related article. I'd like to add, that this new MOS should not only include Spanish, but also other languages in Spanish-speaking countries; such is the case of Catalan, Nahuatl, Quechua, Galician, etc. <font color="black">[[User:steveMX|steve]]</font><font color="red">[[User talk:steveMX|MX]]</font> 23:15, 10 August 2012 (UTC) |

::I know you, [[User:In ictu oculi|In ictu oculi]], are not looking for Mexican naming conventions, but I've found some pretty good discussions that can lead in the creation of this MOS. We could apply these rules to all Spanish-speaking nations. Now, the question in whether using a Catalan place name or a spanish one, can be answered in ([[WP:ENGLISH]]), where the rule states "The most general rule of the Wikipedia is that editors should '''use the most common form of the name or expression used in English''' ([[WP:ENGLISH]])." That's why, when you search for ''Cataluña'' in the English Wikipedia, you are redirected to ''Catalonia'', because that is how the English-speaking world refers to that province. Now for a totally different case: when a place is not known enough, like the comarca ''Barcelonés'' (which, by the way, is ''Barcelonès'' in Catalan), the name of the article will be in its native name, because it is not known enough, or has no English translation. |
