List of Hispanic neighborhoods

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Completely unsourced and this looks like a directory, an example of WP:NOT jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 00:04, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NOR, as well as being an indiscriminate list. Ajf773 (talk) 00:59, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. Although this article has been around for eight years, it apparently has never had a source (or at least not in the selected edits I reviewed). The introduction to the list says, and apparently has always said, "These are a list of neighborhoods with a majority Hispanic population, the demographic information is the article is based on the demographics offered by . [sic] The population of each neighborhood on the list is 50%+ Hispanic. Note: The references for this article are found within . [sic] It clearly states a Hispanic population of above 50% for each neighborhood on the list." The source that the article supposedly uses was never identified, and the article creator only left a blank space to identify it. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:08, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOR. An un-maintainable list. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 05:11, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Do no neighbourhoods in the Spanish-speaking countries of Latin America or, for that matter, Spain have over 50% Hispanic populations? I would have thought that nearly all of them do. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 10:03, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * To clarify that comment for those who might have difficulty "reading between the lines", a list of Hispanic neighbourhoods as described by the title and the lead section of the article would be absurdly long, including nearly all neighbourhoods in quite a few countries. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 13:47, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * For some reason, the authors of this article only decided to include neighborhoods in the United States. While it is possible to include other countries, the lack of sources is the main issue here. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 17:11, 20 September 2017 (UTC)


 * I have addressed the lack of sources. All references were pulled from within each article as the note was trying to say. Articles without explicit references marking it as >50% Hispanic have been marked as disputed (dubious might have been better, but I only remembered the word now). The question now is, does this expand upon List of U.S. communities with Hispanic-majority populations in the 2010 census, which already exists? As a few locations (South Gate, Fruitvale, East Palo Alto) are sourced and aren't on the larger list, deletion is probably not warranted, but a tentative merge might be. menaechmi  (talk) 18:50, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as this article was obviously supposed to be about communities in the United States, but the creator and subsequent editors, for some inexplicable reason, didn't even mention the United States in the title or the text. Menaechmi has shown that we have a properly titled and properly scoped article about Hispanic majority communities in the United States (which may or may not be notable - I haven't checked), and this title should not be a redirect because it doesn't mention the United States, which is obviously needed. We don't have some default point of view that every article is about the United States unless stated otherwise. Adding entries from this uncopyrightable list to List of U.S. communities with Hispanic-majority populations in the 2010 census doesn't require us to keep the history of this article for attribution purposes. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:12, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
