Without going into details, there needs to be a disclaimer that this article is a mess. It should be a fundamentally linguistic explanation and should not combine the terms Hispanic and Latino in the same article. They should have separate articles. Otherwise, you get a mess, which is what this article is.[[User:Godofredo29|Godofredo29]] ([[User talk:Godofredo29|talk]]) 14:26, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

Article is a mess

Without going into details, there needs to be a disclaimer that this article is a mess. It should be a fundamentally linguistic explanation and should not combine the terms Hispanic and Latino in the same article. They should have separate articles. Otherwise, you get a mess, which is what this article is. A good model for fixing it would be to start with something like "Hispanics" in Britannica Online.

Please can you include intermarriage of Hispanic in the interracial article of Wikipedia?

I know is not the place to put it but I do not know were I can put this.There is no information of Hispanics in Wikipedia Interrracial marriage article. According to them it does not exist.

no objections

I will commence 7 days from today unless I someone makes other suggestions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tierraman (talkcontribs) 05:30, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Remove the picture of "young hispanic soccer fans"

That picture should be removed. They are not hispanic, but outright Spanish (So in European language they are just "normal white"). The details reveal that the picture was taken in Pamplona. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.95.114.104 (talk) 02:33, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Of course Spaniards are normal white, they are also normal Latins and they are also normal Hispanics. Look up the origin of the word Hispanic and see for yourself. In fact the biggest parade in Spain is "El dia de Hispanidad" which means The day of hispanism and/or Day of Hispanics. Also not all Spaniards are white. Please do objective research.

The image montage in the infobox is overly political.

Five of the "famous Hispanic and Latino Americans" displayed in the side infobox are politicians (three in Congress, one as the Governor of New Mexico, and one as a former executive official). Furthermore, four of those five are Republicans. Could we please diversify the Hispanic and Latino cultural icons displayed in the infobox, perhaps by including even one musician, writer, film director, artist, scientist, inventor, or businessperson? Seriously, as a cross-section of important Hispanics and Latinos/Latinas, this is pretty lame. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.84.125.132 (talk) 01:28, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I just want to agree with the above: the distribution is absurd. 86.129.188.88 (talk) 11:47, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Half a million more Spaniards?

According to the 2000 Census there were 100,135 Spaniards in the US. According to the 2010 Census there were 635,253 Spaniards in the US. That means 535,118 more Spaniards. Seriously? Is the US Census a reliable source? --86.30.135.172 (talk) 09:18, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
