The main body text is not neutral

[edit]

There is no neutrality nor accuracy in the language employed. Why does it say Latino America? What is that? do they speak Latin or did the explorers came from Lazio?. That recent denomination has been politically created to hide the truth and make less of the important work that Spain did, also to take out the historical memory South American countries. here is used widely contributing to spread confusion. The correct terms are Hispanic-America or Ibero-America or Central America, etc. Why to use "Spanish Conquistador Pedro de Alvarado" instead of Spanish Explorer Pedro de Alvarado? at least they where both but conquistador y rather negative in English, right? Why to say "Spanish conquest of El Salvador" instead of The integration of El Salvador into the Spanish empire? The article says "Colonial period" is false, Hispano-Aamerica, unlike any other country, never ever were colonies, they were vice royalties with the same laws, rights and participation as the Spaniards of Europe. That is why 30 universities were created from 1535, which no other country did because they did have real colonies to exploit. The article goes "beginning with the Spanish taking control of the indigenous cacao crop in the 16th century", It should say something like: the Spaniards expanded the cultivation of cocoa using the new tools they brought, because the Indians neither knew the wheel nor the iron. The language used rhymes very well with that of the Spanish flu, which originated in the USA, but lets blame Spain. 2A0C:5A81:6403:4700:8F73:B9A3:A1EF:E0EC (talk) 18:16, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nowhere does the article say "Latino America".
"Latin America" is a commonly used name. Wikipedia reflects common usage. This article is hardly the first place you've come across it. If you don't like it, you'll have to fight about it with the English-speaking world at large. There's no point taking on the issue on the talk page of one article on Wikipedia.
Explorers explore. Exploring doesn't involve subjugating civilizations and committing massacres. Forcible "integration" is called "conquest". It isn't a violation of principles of neutrality to show awareness of the difference between force and free will.
The universities were not built to educate the natives but the occupiers.
The slaughtered and dispossessed natives were not accorded the same laws, rights, and participation as the Spaniards of Europe. Largoplazo (talk) 22:33, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
