Sources & citations

Copyright violation?

From the thread on how tequila is normally served:

It is also found on this site . Copyvio? Ubermonkey 01:16, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

If anything, I think this site might be the one violating copyright. While working on the production section, I stumbled on that site which had an exact copy of the Wikipedia page. I checked the revision dates though, and while the exact same words were added to Wikipedia in 2008, the site now gives a copyright starting in 2009.
He did do it all at once, and it was the contributer's only registered edit, which may be a little strange. It's always possible the contributer lifted it, but the citations aren't bad and imply actually reading a third source. I would think if the other site's copyright were legit, they'd be aware of it and complain about it. Zar2gar1 (talk) 04:08, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Missing citation in Chemistry > Alcohol content, last paragraph

Sorry if I'm doing this wrong; I'm new to Wikipedia.

The title says it: the last paragraph of the `Chemistry > Alcohol content` section has no citations at all.

Tequila worm "misconception"

This section states a bunch of apparently-true facts and then says "this misconception persists," without saying what misconception it's talking about. 2607:FEA8:129F:E99F:0:0:0:8395 (talk) 02:21, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Barrel size / flavour complexity

"Reposado may be rested in oak barrels or casks as large as 20,000 liters (5,280 gallons), allowing for richer and more complex flavors." - surely smaller barrels give richer flavours due to the higher surface ares / volume ratio? --86.13.184.107 (talk) 00:38, 30 December 2021 (UTC)

I think this is in comparison to blanco, rather than smaller casks. 188.96.172.204 (talk) 18:08, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

Cristallino

The article doesn't currently mention cristallino as a category at all; it should. 188.96.172.204 (talk) 18:08, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

The production map

I'm going to remove the production map. First, it doesn't come from a reliable source. Second, it doesn't match the text of the article. We say that tequila comes from "Jalisco and limited municipalities in the states of Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, and Tamaulipas." But the map shows it coming from Jalisco and Guanajuato. Third, it's wrong. There's plenty of agave production in Yucatán, for example, but that state is not colored on the map. Finally, I don't see the relevance. It might be useful to have a heat map of distillery locations, but a map that colors in all of Guanajuato and none of Nayarit doesn't seem useful. And what's the point of showing where agave that is not used to make tequila is produced? GA-RT-22 (talk) 17:28, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

See also section

Do we need to discuss whether rum, mead, and acerum belong in the See also section? I don't think they do. GA-RT-22 (talk) 00:15, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
