Song title format: capitalization edit

I do not wish to change this without some general consensus, but the song titles within this article are inconsistent. I am of the understanding that only the first word in the title of the work should be capitalized in Spanish. Yet I find several instances of titles being written as they are in English, with the "important" words all being capitalized, in pages written by native Spanish speakers.

As I see it, the "Piensa en mí" is written correctly, but "María Bonita" should be written as "María bonita," since "bonita" is an adjective and not a proper noun. In searching the Internet to find strong support for this though, I find it equally in both forms. Iamcrispydammit 02:10, 16 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Date of birth edit

I have done a google search, and the majority vote is that Lara was born in 1900. However, a large number of sites say that he was born in 1897. This Wiki article is trying to have it both ways. The first sentence says he was born in 1900, but the last line says that he was born in 1897. Can some somebody clarify what is going on? Ogg 09:34, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

[1] says that Lara was born 30 October 1897 in Mexico City, but claimed to was born around 1900 in Veracruz. See also [2]. --FordPrefect42 (talk) 22:39, 10 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Discography edit

A filmography but no discography? Inadequate. Nicmart (talk) 14:29, 25 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
