[ Feel free to join our Discord server as well]! }}

Goals

  1. To ensure articles accurately depict Hispanic and Latino Americans.
  2. To ensure articles reference comprehensive sources by including all the various perspectives of, and about, Hispanic and Latino Americans.
  3. To standardize the use of Spanish, Portuguese, and French/Kreyol-language terms, names, and translations into English.

Defining "Hispanic" and "Latino" Americans

In the United States, "Hispanic and Latino" has been defined by the government as anyone who originates from or has ancestries to a Spanish-speaking country in Latin America or Spain. While official, per the talk page consensus, these definitions have been viewed as not all encompassing to either terminology. Instead, this project uses a more broad definition for both terms to be more inclusive as possible. Therefore, the Latin and Hispanic heritage project focuses on the following:

  • Hispanic: Any immigrant who originates or US-born has ancestries from a Spanish-speaking country. This includes Hispanic America, Spain, and Equatorial Guinea.
  • Latino: Any immigrant who originates or US-born has ancestries from Latin America. Latin America, as defined by this project, includes all Romance-speaking (languages derived from Latin, namely Spanish, Portuguese, and French) countries and territories south of the United States.

Anyone who self-identifies as Hispanic or Latino from a country or region not listed above may also be included in the project scope.
