Name pronunciation edit
Can someone add a mp3 file for the pronunciation of her name? It is a difficult name to pronounce for people that speak Spanish, and I wouldn't like to pronounce her name wrong (I don't know the weird letters that are written for phonemes, I never learned them and probably will never learn it well, and I guess many people don't know about it either, I think a mp3 file would be handy for everyone). 2800:810:453:8324:3CAC:EEC:67B5:1409 (talk) 15:34, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
Place of birth. edit
According to archives of the Aldina News source, they originally stated that Gomez is of Mexican descent and "born in Canada".[1] But now the website states that she was born in Los Angeles, California?[2] In an interview with "The Mary Sue", she states that she is from California? That could leave some ambiguity because that could imply that she was born and raised in California or simply stating that she was raised/is from there?[3]
Is it possible that the original article was an error that was corrected later on? Unless there are other reliable sources which claim that she was born in Canada? Clear Looking Glass (talk) 05:50, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
Considering both California and Canada use the initials CA, maybe someone just made a small mistake? Metropod (talk) 06:14, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
Considering most places say Los Angeles, it is safe to say she was born in California. There is no Los Angeles, Canada. So I say drop the Canada. Capriaf (talk) 21:07, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
An article linked off her own Instagram right now, from Teen Vogue: "Gomez grew up in Los Angeles, raised by a father from Mexico and an L.A. native mother, and lived in Hollywood until she was five. She and her family later moved to Echo Park where she was brought up with a lot of Mexican influences, including bonding with the kids that she grew up with." So, I think it's safe say she's from L.A. --SGreenwell (talk) 00:40, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
So there are no sources for a claim of Canada? And there’s still a controversy? AndrewK760 (talk) 14:28, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
- It looks like the original article was a mistake, and that's the only one claiming Canada (originally). So I guess it's been resolved now. Clear Looking Glass (talk) 10:58, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
It's entirely unlikely that she was born in Canada rather than Los Angeles County… Trillfendi (talk) 21:36, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
The article in Portuguese still states that she is Canadian. 2804:14D:8084:9693:31B1:5645:2C31:9FA6 (talk) 12:48, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Poor quality photo of her edit
The photo on the page has dark lighting and needs to be touch up with photoshop or replaced with a different photo — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.222.180.90 (talk) 14:28, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Xochitl Gomez; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Article was recently promoted to GA. Hook is interesting and well cited. I decided to be WP:BOLD and added relevant links for the character and film – my only two gripes with the hook. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 18:55, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
