Honduras and Blackness
While I don't dispute what you've written in the Afro-LatinAmerican page about Honduras (or anywhere else for that matter), you do need to cite the sources you used. There's no doubt that the Honduran census systematically set criteria to reduce the "blackness" of the Honduran population so that fewer and fewer people were counted as "black". You should look at the work of Dario Euraque, for example. This section of the article is quite muddled and tends to focus on the most recent afro-caribbean migrations to Honduras, ignoring the earlier ones. Honduras had a substantial mulato and pardo population in the 17th and 18th centuries (the time period I work on in Honduras) which didn't go away, it just stopped being identified as such in more recent censuses.

Honduran72
Leaving notes for Honduran72 won't do much good. He's indefinitely blocked, because he was a sockpuppet for, along with and. Any edits he makes from any account get immediately reversed. I understand your frustration with unsourced material getting reverted, but that's just the way it is. Certainly, Editor652's earlier claims of 800,000 aren't supported by anyone, and "350,476" is an incredibly precise number when estimates range as low as 100,000.Kww (talk) 19:01, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Afro-Hondurans website
Hey Remo, I took a look at the Afro-Hondurans website you quoted in the Honduras section of Afro-LatinAmericans. Please see my comment on its Talk page. Rsheptak (talk) 03:17, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Afro-Latino page
Great job on doing the List of famous Afro-Latinos page. Fclass (talk) 16:42, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

African Heritage
I've edited the foot note again, both for grammar and for correctness. Those uncounted people are of African heritage if and only if you use the blood quantum principle to determine who is of African heritage, and there are other definitions of what constitutes African heritage, such as self-identification. So, given there are multiple definitions, I added a disclaimer that indicates there are uncounted people only if you use the blood quantum definition of African heritage. Does that work for you?

See the discussion
I don't agree with your edits to the Afro-LatinAmerican population figures, but I recognize they were made in good faith. Rather than get into a revert war, I thought I'd open a discussion on the talk page. Please go post your thoughts there. Thanks. Rsheptak (talk) 19:45, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Contests
User:Dr. Blofeld has created WikiProject Africa/Contests. The idea is to run a series of contests/editathons focusing on each region of Africa. He has spoken to Wikimedia about it and $1000-1500 is possible for prize money. As someone who has previously expressed interest in African topics, would you be interested in contributing to one or assisting draw up core article/missing article lists? He says he's thinking of North Africa for an inaugural one in October. If interested please sign up in the participants section of the Contest page, thanks.♦ -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:36, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

Attention: WikiProject African diaspora participants
Hello fellow project participants. Not sure how many users are still active as normal Wikipedia editors but felt the need to attempt to get a gauge on who can be called on for help with articles falling under the umbrella of the African diaspora project. According to the project's article table there are over six thousand articles related to the African diaspora; there's not a hundred at FA/GA grade and there's over twelve hundred that are unassessed. With Wikipedia being one of the major information reference points in the world today we should consider this unacceptable. Much work needs to be done on the rating of the importance of articles as well. With more communication amongst participants and a dedication to addressing the articles on the to-do list I believe we can make this WikiProject one of the most well organized and thorough on the site. If you are interested in collaborative work with some of your fellow project members, have certain expertise on any particular subjects, ideals on/about the WikiProject, etc. simply drop your name under the "Project revision" section I've created on the project's talk page and state your intentions and main points of interest in our WikiProject and we can attempt to move forward from there. Hoping to hear from everyone soon! WikiGuy86 (talk) 03:30, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
