Re: State codes for Mexico

ISO 3166-1 defines codes for countries, not states.

Agreed. I meant to say that the two letter codes are defined there; so the following ISO standard complements the previous one...

ISO 3166-2:MX uses 3-letter codes for the states of Mexico (cf. [1].) There are two-letter codes present in the article ISO 3166-2:MX, but they have nothing to do with the ISO standard.

That's weird... Where do the two letter codes come from? The statoids.com reference cites HASC. Are you in position to confirm this source, to make the appropriate clarification in the ISO 3166-2:MX article?-- Louie 05:12, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The two-letter codes in ISO 3166-2:MX are different from those of HASC; I don't know where they came from. By the way, HASC is an invention of Gwilliam Law, the author of the statoids.com website, and has no official standing. Spacepotato 08:31, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Boy, that's wrong!! Do you think it makes sense to delete that second column with the spurious two-letter codes? There is no reference for that supposed "standard" code. Louie 14:54, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

re:es-mx

Oh, thank you for fixing it, I made it based on the Castillian Spanish template but since that one is "es-es" I wasn't really sure which one goes first, one more thing though, could you add the template into this category: [[Category:User_es]] as well, thanks.

Done. I hope it all works out well. Louie 05:19, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User es-mx

Your original fix was fine - the reason the users still showed up in the old category was due to the way categories work - each user page has to be purged for it to update the categories.—Random832 21:13, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mexican music

Hello Louis56:

I just want to say I started a section HERE for discussion of the business of listing musicians in the article.

I think it is better to discuss there than in edit summaries.
