Additional input requested - singles dispute

There are currently related discussions at Talk:Shakira: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53 and Talk:Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran regarding the inclusion of the former in the latter's infobox and vice versa. Both have fizzled out without consensus and could benefit from fresh eyes so we can put this issue to bed. CAMERAwMUSTACHE (talk) 16:42, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

Dispute at Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran

There is currently a dispute ongoing at Talk:Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran regarding singles for the album, and could use some input from members of this WikiProject. The discussion is called Singles dispute. Thanks. HorrorLover555 (talk) 17:30, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

Starting the Latin music project on the Portuguese Wikipedia

On the Portuguese Wikipedia, I've started a discussion to see if we can start the Latin music project on the Wikipedia. I figured since I was able to create the Latin music project in Spanish, that I feel that Lusophone music deserves to be represented by its own language Wikipedia as well! In the same discussion, I also included a discussion to see if we can get WP:LATINOS in the Portuguese Wikipedia which would be useful for the Brazilian diaspora in the United States. Pinging our Portuguese-speaking members: @Victor Lopes:, @VictorVoorhees:, @Brenzio:, @Phosphor:, @GeorgeSeaks:, @Rangel's Version:, @Cathodography:, your input would be most valuable!

I tried to leave my {support}, but a filter was triggered, maybe the proposal is still on review/hold? I don't know, Oscar_. (talk) 18:47, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

@Oscar . That's okay, Victor Lopes told me on my talk page how the music projects are not really active on the Portuguese Wikipedia. I haven't gotten a single response. Erick (talk) 19:18, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

Editing to the Beat Miami

@Bleff:, @Victor Lopes:, @AJona1992:, @Luisnh1210:, @Sebaspikyaq:, @Cathodography:, @Mtvdanilo:, @FanDePopLatino:, @Jaespinoza:, @AlexanderShakifan29:, @JeanetteMartin:, @Key limes:, @Cambalachero:, @Sebitagermanotta:, @PaulYordan:, @Gelo DemonPlayer:, @GanzKnusper:, @JohnMizuki:, @Dieguettee:, @ItsMario97:, @JuliánLeiva66: Hey everyone! Sorry for the massive tag, but I have huge news! At the end of next month, there will (finally) be an edit-a-thon dedicated to Latin music in Miami! You can details about the event here. Do not worry if you cannot attend physically, your input on how to improve the event such as finding potential partners or adding topics to the list of potential articles would be most welcomed! Please ping me or @Oscar .: if you have any questions. Erick (talk) 23:14, 15 July 2025 (UTC)

This is sweet, hopefully those who cannot attend physically can still be a part of this event virtually and help out with the articles needing improvements. – jona ✉ 11:15, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for the ping @Magiciandude. We're looking to build out a new task list. Last time I put this one together, but there's room to expand, Latin music is a broad field. This time, I want to focus on fair en.wiki articles that don’t have Spanish counterparts, so we can translate them, and also improve those tagged with maintenance issues or lacking sources. Suggestions are very welcome, Oscar_. (talk) 02:51, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

For finding articles that exist in English but not Spanish, I'd recommend the tool not-in-the-other-language.toolforge.org. For example, here is a search for articles in Category:Colombian musicians that don't exist in Spanish. GanzKnusper (talk) 19:08, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

I also have another suggestion for a task, slightly different. The background is: in Argentina, photographs are only in copyright for 20 years after publication (and for 25 years after creation). This means that photos published first in Argentina before 1971 or in 1996–1999 are public domain in AR and US, and therefore eligible for commons. (The gap from 1971 to 1995 is due to the URAA. The relevant license template is Commons:Template:PD-AR-Photo.) I fairly often read about Colombian musicians touring in Argentina and I think there must be photos out there, but I wouldn't know where to start looking! Maybe someone else would know: newspapers, magazines, something else? GanzKnusper (talk) 19:11, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Hey there @Magiciandude, thanks for the ping, and sorry for taking a while to reply, I was busy with WikiCon Brasil 2025. When you speak of potential partners, do you mean WMF affiliates, or possible sponsors? Victor Lopes ^Fala!•C 23:15, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

@Victor Lopes Thanks for the replay Victor! I meant the latter (me, Oscar, and other Wikimedians have already sent e-mails to potential sponsors), we already have Wikimedia NYC helping out, but if Wikimedia Brasil could help out, that would be great as well! Erick (talk) 23:49, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello, @Magiciandude Thank you very much for inviting me. I will be participating in the edit-a-thon remotely and hope to contribute to the expansion of our beloved Latin music on Wikipedia! Mtvdanilo (talk) 15:46, 23 July 2025 (UTC)
