[edit]

It was rather irresponsible for the creator of this list article to leave it with just a smattering of entries, when the population of interest includes hundreds or even thousands of notable people. For this to be a viable article, which nobody will target for deletion, it needs to measure up to the population that it is trying to commemorate. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:44, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the article needs to be developed. So I can't understand why you removed Martin Sheen. You claim that he's Spanish, not Hispanic. But the two words are synonyms - they mean the same thing. His father was born in Spain - but so was Rita Hayworth's. And several of the people here are half-Irish - the fancy term is Hiberno-Hispanic - including Mel Ferrer, Anthony Quinn, Rita Hayworth (well, half-Anglo-Irish). Oh, and Martin Sheen. Should that debar them from entry? If we begin to make such exceptions, the list will be even smaller than it is already. Do you not think that you should reconsider your deletion and revert it?

Doomsdayer520, I started the list, but the people can expand it. This is how Wikipedia works. O Murr, "Hispanic" is synonym of Spanish-speaking.--Isinbill (talk) 21:26, 23 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
