Nationalist Point of View
"Satmex maintains its own satellite fleet with most of the fleet being designed and built in Mexico."

_None_ of the fleet has been designed and built in Mexico.

Proposed correction:

I call upon all editors to reject nationalism, Mexican or otherwise, in accord with WP practice and policy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.234.43.155 (talk) 17:43, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Literal translation of name = "Mexican United States"
I consider it is inadequate to not include a literal translation of the Spanish name Estados Unidos Mexicanos. It has been mentioned numerous times that the literal translation of this would be "Mexican United States" or (I would have thought) "United States of Mexico". In the past this fact has been erroneously dismissed because the official English name promoted by the Mexican government is "United Mexican States". My response to this is: so what?!  Those two things are different, so just mention two separate facts in the article. Problems in the past have arisen from editors incorrectly conflating these two independent items. The confusion arises because the two are — by chance — similar in the case of Mexico. It is easier to illustrate for a different country. Consider China. The article currently includes the following:
 * Talk:Mexico/Archive_9
 * Talk:Mexico/Archive_7
 * Talk:Mexico/Archive_3
 * The official name of the modern state is the "People's Republic of China" (Chinese: 中华人民共和国; pinyin: Zhōnghuá Rénmín Gònghéguó). The shorter form is "China" Zhōngguó (中国), from zhōng ("central") and guó ("state")

So it gives multiple separate facts: (i) the official English name;  (ii) the official Chinese name;  (iii) pronunciation of the official Chinese name;  (iv) N/A;  (v) the informal/shorter English name;  (vi) the informal/shorter Chinese name;  (vii) pronunciation of the informal/shorter Chinese name;  (viii) a literal translation of the informal/shorter Chinese name. So for Mexico it should, in principle, give all variants too: —DIV (120.17.40.5 (talk) 11:25, 14 March 2018 (UTC))
 * (i) the official English name = United Mexican States
 * (ii) the official Spanish name = Estados Unidos Mexicanos
 * (iii) pronunciation of the official Spanish name = ?
 * (iv) a literal translation of the official Spanish name = Mexican United States or United States of Mexico
 * (v) the informal/shorter English name = Mexico
 * (vi) the informal/shorter Spanish name = México
 * (vii) pronunciation of the informal/shorter Spanish name = [ˈmexiko]
 * (viii) a literal translation of the informal/shorter Spanish name = etymology disputed

Type of government needs correcting
Mexico is a federal democratic republic. It is not a constitutional republic. The concept of a constitutional republic is only understood by the American cult of right wing conservative fanatics. The idea of a constitutional republic is trivial given that even Cuba and North Korea are also constitutional republics. Granted there are constitutional monarchies but there has never been a serious implication that it implies the parallel phrase of constitutional republic. Please edit and make the changes.

Please change United Mexican States to Mexican United States. It might not seem a big deal but the order is important in Spanish. The name of the country is Estados Unidos Mexicanos.

Ethnicity in Mexico
It is not correct to say 47% of Mexico is European descended/White, nor saying that 23% is indigenous when most of the population is in fact mestizo. A self-reported survey, in which people choose their ethnicity is extremely subjective and does not serve as proof of etnicitiy as this article does. The figures should not be taken as serious ethnicity data.

There is also a big mistake saying 18-23% of the population has blond hair. The Data is taken from a self-reported study on discrimination, with respondents self identifying as blond. This is extremely subjective and doesnt speak of the blondism in the general mexican population. On the other hand, when other studies on blondism are consulted, like the one of wikipedia itself, not even european countries such as Italy or France have such high figures of blondism. Mexico, in no way, has such high blond populations (Higher than France? Really?). This data should be revised and/or deleted as they are clearly false. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alejojojo6 (talk • contribs) 12:16, 22 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Erm actually blondism rates in France are 48%, in Italy 30% and in Spain 26%. So at least 18% is not quite as ludicrous as you imply. At least in the northern half of the country. --Frijolesconqueso (talk) 00:21, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

Transportation
This section has a gross error: it says that Mexico is the country with the most paved roads in Latin America (116,802 km (72,577 mi)), when this information is false, since Brazil has 213,452 km paved in 2017, this year data can be consulted on the website: https://anuariodotransporte.cnt.org.br/2018/Rodoviario/1-3-1-1-2-/Malha-rodovi%C3%A1ria-pavimentada

Recognition date
At the very beginning of the article where data is shown, it is stated that Mexico was recognized on December 22, 1836. This is very innacurate and should be changed to December 12, 1822, when the U.S presidential administration of James Monroe recieved its first minister from Mexico; José Manuel Zozaya. The article for James Monroe also states the Mexico was recognized in 1822, and this article should be matched to it. Mexican Nationalist (talk) 19:25, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Official Name: Estados Unidos Mexicanos / Correct Translation into English: Mexican United States
Hello dear friends,

I have read the page of Mexico in Wikipedia. I noticed that the translation into English of Mexico’s official name is wrong. It is written like: United Mexican States, this would be literally: Estados Mexicanos Unidos and that is not Mexico’s official name, it is: Estados Unidos Mexicanos, therefore the correct translation of Mexico’s official name into English is: Mexican United States. Even if you have read articles which use that mistranslated name that is a complete error, you don’t want to endorse a mistake like this. Languages rules are clear and in any circumstance should a traditional error in translating should persist and even less endorse. Please correct the error of translating it in the wrong manner. Thank you for your attention, please reply to this message so we can discuss. Have a good day.

Mexico: Central America or North America?
I am specifically talking about this map:. I have never heard of a “North American subregion”. In case Mexico is the only North American country in Latin America, then this map implies Mexico is the lonely country in North America (the U.S. and Canada wouldn’t be part of it according to this map).

Furthermore, according to the United Nations, Mexico is in Central America here so I seek clarification if Mexico is indeed a North American country as described in the article since a governmental source contradicts it. From my understanding, while Central America and the Caribbean are in NA, there is no official name for the three major countries (U.S., Canada, and Mexico) that exists. LostKlaus (talk) 22:27, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
 * A map of Turkey that marks the Europe and Asia portions of Turkey doesn't apply that Turkey is the only country in either Europe or Asia, so I disagree with what you say the map implies.
 * The CIA World Factbook says Mexico is in North America, so there's a government source that contradicts the UN.
 * In the English-speaking world, the division between North and South America most typically, I would say, is made around where Panama and Colombia meet, with the isthmus north of there being called Central America. The entire division-by-continents thing, though, is largely arbitrary. It's like trying to pinpoint where the mountain ends and the valley begins, or defining where the Bay of Biscay becomes the Atlantic Ocean. Largoplazo (talk) 00:57, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

I believe that an image of the Chicxulub asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs should be added in the geography section.

I am looking to gain a consensus on this before proposing an edit request.

On the “recognized regional languages” section please change the text hyperlink “Amerindian languages” to “Indigenous languages” as the wikipedia article it leads to uses the term “indigenous”, not “amerindian”. The Mexican government itself uses the term “lenguas indigenas” (indigenous languages) in its census data as well. Not to mention, the term “amerindian” is not in popular usage among the general population.

Jejimcas (talk) 17:53, 3 January 2023 (UTC) I would like to ask a change of names. The heads of the Senate, Deputies and Supreme Court has changed. The first two since September 2022 and the last since 2 January 2023.

Alejandro Armenta Mier is the president of the Senate. Santiago Creel Miranda is the president of the Deputies. Norma Lucía Piña Hernández is the president of the Supreme Court.

Question
In Wikipedia, I know you need to back up whatever you write (that isn't obvious to a glance or original research) with a reliable source, but my question is does the source need to be in English? I want to add information, but the article is only available in Spanish with no option to translate (but it comes from the federal government of Mexico). Thanks in advance. LostKlaus (talk) 06:15, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * See WP:NONENG. Sources don't need to be in English. Given the availability of an acceptable source in English, it's preferable to use that over one that isn't in English, but non-English sources are fine. Largoplazo (talk) 14:40, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

Lots of grammatical errors in this paragraph. I made some corrections:

Throughout the 19th century, the population of Mexico had barely doubled. This trend continued during the first two decades of the 20th century. The 1921 census reported a loss of about 1 million inhabitants. The Mexican Revolution greatly impacted population increases. The growth rate increased dramatically between the 1930s and the 1980s, when the country registered growth rates of over 3% (1950–1980). The Mexican population doubled in twenty years, and at that rate it was expected that by 2000 there would be 120 million people living in Mexican. Life expectancy increased from 36 years (in 1895) to 72 years (in the year 2000). 2806:2F0:8100:1D33:F8C2:E81E:BBF9:9DA8 (talk) 09:35, 25 February 2023 (UTC)

Official name correction
Please change Nahuatl official name of Mexico to Mexika Sentik Wexteyowalko, as it is the real extended name of Mexico according to government sources. https://www.inali.gob.mx/bicen/pdf/GLOSARIO_nahuatl_huasteca_potosina.pdf

Also, I suggest the Maya official name U Múuchꞌ Péetluꞌumiloꞌob Meejiko to be added too. https://www.inali.gob.mx/bicen/pdf/CPEUM_maya.pdf Languae (talk) 00:57, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

Image caption appears outdated or is wrong
The caption reads "New Spain was essential to the Spanish global trading system. White represents the route of the Spanish Manila Galleons in the Pacific and the Spanish convoys in the Atlantic (blue represents Portuguese routes)." The image has no white or blue routes marked, nor does any version in the file history. I suspect the caption used to belong to an image of another name.——JavaRogers (talk) 01:50, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Quote:

''As a result of the October 26th, 2022, order from the Mexican Government, Daylight Saving Time (DST) in the United Mexican States will not be observed in 2023 calendar year. In a subsequent order by the Mexican Government, it was declared that Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo León, Tamaulipas and the state of Baja California near the Mexico-U.S. border will continue to honor the DST schedule defined by the United States in 2007 which starts on the second Sunday of March (March 12, 2023) at 2:00 AM and ends on the first Sunday of November (November 5, 2023) at 2:00 AM.''

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: There's no reason to use the official, formal name of the US. It's normally referred to as "the United States".

Notorious?
"Historically, the Lebanese diaspora and the German-born Mennonite migration have left a notorious impact in the country's culture, particularly in its cuisine and traditional music."

Notorious has negative connotations. I don't think its the right word to use here. De2nis (talk) 02:06, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

1. Please change the content of the first citation after the "Mexico (Spanish: México)" from "Nahuatl languages" to "Nahuan languages". 2. The "[a]" citation in the infobox is missing. I believe it is supposed to be beside the "68 indigenous languages" and would be '[b]' instead because the current "[b]" citation would be first in the list. Rvat2003 (talk) 13:43, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Fixed the [b] efn. It was hard-coded to show [b] rather than assume the alphabetical order it appears in. As for the Nahuatl languages link, I'm not going to change that because it gets pulled from an IANA registry (manually, every so often) into Module:Language/data/iana languages. I would suggest opening a discussion on Module talk:Language if you would still like the change to be made. SWinxy (talk) 17:25, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Religion Data in the infobox
Kindly some editor change the haphazard religion data in the infobox to a more reliable and comprehensive official Mexican census estimate from 2020, which states that 77.8% of the population is Catholic, 11.7% Protestant and 1.8% other Christian, while 8.4% of the population is non-religious and only 0.3% of the Mexican population belongs to other religions.

Length of lead
Checking MOS:LEADLENGTH, 3 to 4 paragraphs is apparently normal for an article over 5,000 words. This article has about 8,500 words, according to the automated page stats. I combed through the intro a bit, but a lot of stuff there seemed important. It's currently 5 paragraphs, which even for a topic this important seems excessive to me. If forced to drop it to 3 paragraphs, which the MOS says is typical for featured articles, I'd cut some of the details about history and merge the middle 3 paragraphs into one.
