Help with Portuguese[edit]

(copy of discussion from Wikipedia:WikiProject_Resource_Exchange/Resource_Request#Search_help_needed)

This citation/URL is used in over 2,200 articles:

"Divisão Territorial do Brasil" (in Portuguese). Divisão Territorial do Brasil e Limites Territoriais, Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE). July 1, 2008. Retrieved December 17, 2009.

It is dead and there are no apparent archives. I'd love to be able to replace it with a new citation, URL or archive. Any help appreciated from REX search experts. -- GreenC 15:19, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

@GreenC: That ftp site is still active, and it's possible that that file has simply been moved or renamed. Anyone with a knowledge of Portuguese may be able to find it by navigating the site's directory tree. —Bruce1ee^talk 15:40, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

Confirmed it is possible to FTP into ftp://geoftp.ibge.gov.br .. once logged in, it appears the top-level directory might be /organizacao_do_territorio .. however I can not find the target file DTB_2008.zip .. there might another file from another date that resolves the citations. It will require help from a speaker of Portuguese. Any help to save 2,200 cites needed. -- GreenC 16:54, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

RfC about lack of global coverage in Racial bias on Wikipedia[edit]

More opinions are needed at [1]. The issues being discussed are that, despite the title, the coverage relates only to English Wikipedia, and that the coverage is US-centric. NightHeron (talk) 11:04, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Name change from "Spanish colonization of the Americas" to "Spanish Colonial America"[edit]

FAR for Mario Vargas Llosa[edit]

I have nominated Mario Vargas Llosa for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. (t · c) buidhe 06:56, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

One of your project's articles has been selected for improvement![edit]

Hello,
Please note that Latin music (genre), which is within this project's scope, has been selected as one of the Articles for improvement. The article is scheduled to appear on Wikipedia's Community portal in the "Articles for improvement" section for one week, beginning today. Everyone is encouraged to collaborate to improve the article. Thanks, and happy editing!
