External Link[edit]

I removed the link to mexicanfood.about.com because it had objectional amounds of adverting. This was reverted with the edit summary revert, AGAIN. The guidelines say NOTHING about pages with ads).

The relevent section of the external linkguideline refers to sites with Links to sites with objectionable amounts of advertising which is what I believe that link is. I am sure that there are countless sites out there with a recipie to this drink that don't carry objectional levels of ads. Please find one of these if you wish to restore a link. --Spartaz ^Humbug! 06:43, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, rule number 5 does state "Objectionable Amounts of Advertising" but I don't feel that the site has any more advertising than any other site. "Objectionable Amounts of Advertising" might be your opinion, but until there is a hard and fast example or list of what constitutes "Objectionable Amounts of Advertising" what do you base your decisions on? Your own opinion? Last time I checked, your opinion is merely that- an OPINION... so please stop suggesting that adding a few recipes by way of external links is some how spamming Wikipedia. I like THAT recipe and that is why I added it. Also, I counted one banner ad at the top, which is normal, and one picture add on the page with a few ad links at the bottom. The rest of the boxes are links to other content on the "mexican food" site, NOT ADS!Mexicanfood 04:48, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I would love to update and contribute to this article, but why should I bother? I am truly offended. Mexicanfood 04:50, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For the english translation of Aguas Frescas, instead of "fresh (cold) waters" as it reads now, wouldn't a more accurate translation in english be "Refreshing Waters"? 67.91.212.130 (talk) 23:30, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The term "aguas frescas" might be from Mexico, but surely horchata originates in Valencia? The area in Spain is famous for it, especially Alboraia. Wee Jimmy (talk) 23:25, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Health benefits[edit]

I removed this section because the benefits were based on (often minor) ingredients, and the sources were suspect (miraculous claims). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.117.33.135 (talk) 20:11, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Growing in popularity[edit]

This section reads like a homework essay with inaccurate facts and vague writing. Please consider rewrite or deletion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.33.213.127 (talk) 07:36, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, because they are always sold in plural. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 20:59, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support; grapes are also always sold in plural. Also, my experience isn't everything, but I've seen it in singular, especially in English Red Slash 22:53, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
