Why would anyone site Jesus Malverde as a patron saint of undocumented immigrants without regard to them trafficking narcotics or not? Diegueno 14:19, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Patron Saint of Undocumented Immigrants?
I was unsure of this myself, because Malverde is known pimarily for his patronage of drug traffickers -- however, at his shrine there are apparently ex votos thanking him for help with other illegal acts, of which entering a country as an undocumented worker is one. I welcome proof or disproof either way 14/88. Catherineyronwode 22:32, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

POV?
Isn't this statement too POV: "His successes in the Hip Hop world have inspired an entire generation. Malverde is considered to be the most successful and prolific underground artist of recent days and is currently working on his follow up album "La Leyenda Continua" for 2007."? Neway it doesnt seem very probbable for an artist to inspire an 'entire generation' with just one album in one year 83.20.180.15 00:09, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Santo Malverde
A Santo Malverde page has appeared. I presume that you'd want to perform a merge and redirect. Lavateraguy 20:32, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Valverde

 * His nickname Malverde (evil-green) was given by his wealthy victims, deriving from an association between green and misfortune

It is referenced, but I consider that at least there is an influence of the common placename Valverde. --Error (talk) 22:15, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Al-Khidr?
I admit I haven’t looked too deeply, but from a quick glance on Google, there doesn’t appear to be any connection between Malverde and Al-Khidr, except both feature their respective language’s word for ‘green’ in their names. @Avaldcast, where did you hear this claim?

 * Again, I can't find any sources that make a connection between Malverde and al-Khidr. Can you back up this claim? SomeKindOfGnome (talk) 14:40, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I've removed the Al-Khidr connection, as there was no support for it anywhere. Looks like original research to me, in that kind of old-fashioned way where mythologists presume there's a connection between various cultures' deities, saints et cetera if they but happen to share some common attribute.
