Too much enfasis on Pedro Infante... as if he were the be all and end all of Mexican cinema. Without Jorge Negrete, there would not have been a Pedro Infante, period. So, this is a rather shallow treatment of a grand era of movie-making. No mention is made of Joaquín Pardavé, Marga López, Syliva Pinal, Tin-Tan, Santo, Clavillazo, Resortes, Ricardo Montalbán, Angélica María, Ignacio López Tarso, Pedro Armendáriz, Fernando Soto "Mantequilla," Armando Soto "El Chicote," etc.

There were many more genres than what this article gives credit for, for example, crime, film noir, historical, femme fatal genre (with María Félix and later with Ana Luisa Peluffo, again, etc.

This article really does a disservice to the Golden Era of Mexican Cinema by just blindly extolling the obvious icons of the era. There was really a lot more genres and diversity in the films that need to be represented in this article for it to accurate.

Fair use rationale for Image:Aguila o sol screenshot.PNG

Image:Aguila o sol screenshot.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand ^{(talk • contribs • Bot)} 02:36, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Los olvidados screenshot.PNG

Image:Los olvidados screenshot.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

Image copyright problem with Image:La perla.PNG

The image Image:La perla.PNG is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
That this article is linked to from the image description page.

The following images also have this problem:

Actors and actresses list

@Rodw and BD2412: Maythetriana (along with several what I suspect to be closely related IPs) keeps insisting on adding a nearly endless list of red links, bad links and DABlinks to the "Actors and actresses" section. I've explained to them why they should stop doing this at User talk:Maythetriana, but have not gotten a response so far. Anyway, I see you've both fixed DABlinks on this page since they most recently restored their version list (and they even un-piped the fixed links in between - strange!), so I thought you might want to be aware of this in order to not waste any more time in case it happens again.

Thanks. @Narky Blert: identified similar behaviour on various Indian film articles some time ago. I wonder if it is the same editor?— Rod ^talk 09:06, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, the Bollywood troll. No, I'm quite sure it's not the same editor, or even similar editors. To me it seems that this one is not a troll, but merely someone singularly focused on this list of Mexican Golden Age actors, maybe indeed an expert as they claim; but utterly unaware of how Wikipedia works, and so far apparently unwilling to learn. Lennart97 (talk) 09:22, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This looks different from any of my nuisances in Indian or Japanese film (all of whom have been refreshingly quiet this year). I DABfixed in Golden Age of Mexican cinema this April, and slapped on an {{alumni}} tag. I sampled a few of the redlinks; some have articles in eswiki, but by no means all. {{ill}} links to eswiki articles could help our readers, but an indiscriminate morass of unsourced redlinks does not; I agree with their deletion. Narky Blert (talk) 09:31, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've just remembered this diff from 21 April 2021 - articles about an actor exist in both enwiki and eswiki, but reveal no connection to Mexico. Narky Blert (talk) 09:39, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

broken link

I removed the "The 10 Best Mexican Movies in IMDB.com" external link because it sends to a different site with a lot of spam and pornographic content. I couldn't find any top 10 list on IMDB to replace it with. Osw719 (talk) 17:01, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
