Talk:Beer in Mexico/Archive 1

"Chela"
The article states that "chela" is some sort of slang term for a 325ml beer bottle, going as far as translating "Mi Chela Helada" as "my bottle of beer, ice cold". This is not the case... I don't have any idea of where the term "michelada" comes from, but "chela" does not refer to a beer bottle, rather it's a colloquialism for beer, more or less like "brewski" in American English. Agurza (talk) 00:29, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Limes
It's not true that Mexicans don't drink beer with limes. I've known them to put limes in beer both in and out of Mexico. And that's not taking into account micheladas, cubanas, etc, which tourists from abroad rarely drink. Maw 21:34, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Phrases like "most beer aficionados agree..." are examples of weasel words and should be qualified with a source or deleted. Also, asserting that the aforementioned beer aficionados don't know what beer drinkers really want is not only a generalization but completely unsupported by any evidence whatsoever & should be fixed. I'll try to find something in that regard. Frambach 03:34, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, Tecate was being served with a lime (not in the can, true) since at least the 1960's, in Mexico. Wulfysanjose (talk) 02:05, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

Top sellers
No way that can be NPOV, unless valid references can be given for the validity of beer of Mexico brand quality. I may agree with the statements, but they are not what should be in an encyclopedia. --Dumarest 00:54, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Need for reliable sources
Many (most?) of the sources appear to be poor, failing WP:RS. I think this is self-evident, but we can create a list and go through them one by one if necessary. --Ronz (talk) 17:51, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I think so.... Most of the sources here are news articles, government sources, beer manufacturers and the like....Thelmadatter (talk) 03:19, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * News articles, should be fine. Government sources can vary.  Manufacturers' sites probably shouldn't be used at all. --Ronz (talk) 16:57, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I think it would be helpful to review WP:RS, WP:V, and WP:SELFPUB before commenting further. --Ronz (talk) 05:48, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Care to discuss proper sources instead? --Ronz (talk) 05:48, 31 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment - With regard to the sources, while I will agree that its preferable to have sources other than the manufacturer itself, organizations like CONACULTA are indeed notable in and of themselves and a WP:RS. In addition, just because a source is not the "most preferred", does not mean sections about it should be summarily deleted.  If anything, the article should be tagged with , as I think that is more relevant than questioning whether or not the sources are reliable. -- nsaum75 ¡שיחת! &lrm; 07:43, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Don't know what the fuss is about but I do feel time would be better spent expanding other articles than complaining about every source. Offhand this looks OK to me, maybe some of the sources such as http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2008/05/michelada-mexican-beer-cocktail.html are not reliable but I can't see offhand the extent of the problem identified here.. I believe sources such as http://www.arts-history.mx/banco/index.php?id_nota=0305200695617 are reliable... Dr. Blofeld       White cat 13:37, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

I agree that Serious Eats is not the best and I would prefer to use something better but the problem is that I dont have access to anything better. If/when I come across one (libraries suck in Mexico :( and I cant afford access to databases on my own ) I will make a replacement, but I know the information to be accurate and some source (except something that screams self publication/self promotion) is better than no source. Lack of sources is a lousy aspect of doing non-Anglo world topics and probably part of the reason why systemic bias is a problem on WP. Ronz, I understand your concern about using articles like those about beer for advertising purposes... its all too easy and tempting to do... both for manufacturers and for aficionados. But I really tried to keep WP:NPOV, and tried to cover as much ground as I could. If you or anyone else has access to better sources and cant read Spanish or dont have the time to work the better source in, just send me a scanned copy via my email and Ill gladly do it.Thelmadatter (talk) 16:14, 31 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Edit conflict.
 * Thanks for the comments. I agree on Conaculta and have indicated so above.  Yes, I was hoping this would be resolved simply, but we are writing an encyclopedia here, so the quality of the sources is important.  Yes, we have some problems with primary sources, but worse we have self-published sources.
 * "Editors should provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is challenged or likely to be challenged, or the material may be removed." - WP:V, which includes WP:SELFPUB. --Ronz (talk) 16:28, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The Serious Eats ref is used in conjunction with three others on the topic of michelada. Given this, do we need this ref at all? --Ronz (talk) 16:35, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Serious Eats is there as it is the only one that refers to micheladas specifically. The others are about whether or not to put lime in the beer. Beer with lime is not necessarily a michelada. (BTW the michelada in accompanying photo is held by my hand :D) I know from personal experience that most places in Mexico (at least central Mexico where I live) serve bottles beer with lime wedges on the side, but this is not considered to be a michelada. However, I could find no source referring to this practice and I did not include it in the article. I interpret "by challenging the material" to mean challenging if it is accurate. Not simply that one does not like it for some reason. So if it is accurate, I dont think it should be removed. If I think Im making an assertion whose accuracy can be disputed, I make sure I use better sources. For example, I was extremely careful with sources for Santa Muerte because I felt that since it was a more charged subject and my experience with it extremely limited. Fortunately, newspapers in Mexico have written fairly extensively on the topic. I removed a reference in the Beer in Mexico article that bottles of beer are also called "cheves" in Mexico, because my sources dont say this and I had never heard it. Guess what word I saw on a hand-written sign in a tiny town called Santa María Tonameca Oaxaca while I was on vacation??? But I cant find any kind of reference to that word or how widespread it is. Id be happy to mention it in the article if I could find out something about it.Thelmadatter (talk) 17:51, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * One of the refs from michelada is fairly good quality: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3469/is_51_56/ai_n16030172/?tag=content;col1
 * I found a WSJ article that could be used as well: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124121797873378747.html --Ronz (talk) 18:14, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I thought both articles pushed the maggi or Worcester sauce too heavily but the WSJ article mentions the clamato version and is better written. Made the changeThelmadatter (talk) 21:22, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Some good sources from a google books search
I think I found some good ones. See below


 * Pages 218-220 discuss the history of the modelo group


 * The chapter "Joe and Jane Sixpack discusses competition from Mexican beer on US Beer sales. Could be relavent.  The preview seems like it would make for a nice read for casual reading as well as for wikipedia.
