He's Haitian. Haitians aren't Hispanic and never have been. Unless there is something I don't know about in his past, it doesn't seem to make sense to have him here. Would someone like to explain? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.102.128.163 (talk) 15:01, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Who ever said he was Hispanic? this artical is about Afro-Latin Americans which includes Latinos and hispanics. if you did your research than you would know that haiti, brazil, french guiana and other non speaking spanish countries in that Americas are consider latin america because of their similar past history with the speaking spanish neighboring countries. and not only that, and because they all speak the romance language. French and Portuguese comes from Latin, so any country in the americas that speak the romance language are part of latin america. that would make Wyclef Jean a Afro-Haitian/Afro-Latin American/Latino,he's not hispanic because he doesn't speak spanish and does not comes from a spanish\hispanic speaking backround. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnnymurda (talk • contribs) 13:54, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of Afro-Latinos's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 22:04, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
I am reinserting the sections on Martinique and Haiti deleted by RiverBlue2 suggesting that the African descended populations from there are not Afro-Latin American.
According to the article on the Americas Martinique is among the list of overseas regions, dependencies and other polities that belong to the American geographic region (not the nation), but do not fall into the category of being "sovereign states". Martinique is controlled, and was colonized, by France, one of the original Latin-based nations (culture, people and language). Furthermore, the island's original inhabitants, the Arawak and Carib peoples, are considered Indigenous Americans because they were native to the Americas. 80% of the indigenous population is of African slave, Caucasian, and Indigenous ancestry, carrying on the Arawak and Carib bloodlines.
According to the same article Haiti is among 35 sovereign states in the Americas. The country is part of the American geographic region. Although an independent nation Haiti was colonized by France, one of the original Latin-based nations (culture, people and language). Furthermore, the island's original inhabitants, the Taino peoples, are considered Indigenous Americans because they were native to the Americas.
Latin culture was not only inherited from Spain and Portugal via the colonial era - see Latin and Latins. Therefore, Martinique and Haiti are, indeed, a Latin American entities due to their geographic disposition of being in the Americas (which includes the Caribbean), and by way of cultural, ethnic and linguistic heritage. Thus, the African descendants living in both Haiti and Martinique are Afro-Latin American. Bab-a-lot (talk) 17:23, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
For anyone hoping to improve or add content to this article, there is a lot of uncited names here in Archive one Feel free to cite and replace, thanks. Please do not add any name without its own individual wikipedia relaible citation..imo to be placed on this list, there should also be some mention of the persons afro Latino status on their wikipedia Biography also. Also an explanation somewhere, here or there, here and on the subjects individual article preferably, explaining something about, how and where and why it is a correct addition. For example: - John Smith is a Afro Latino, his mother was born in Lagos, Africa and was an African person and his father was Argentinian and he was born in Argentina and is an Afro Latino...then provide a citation or citations to support your claims.

These are the conditions that require supporting wikipedia reliable citations: - This is a list of people of Afro-Latino descent. People included here must have at least one wikipedia reliable source asserting that they are Afro-Latinos; that is, that the persons or their ancestors hail from Latin America, have lived a substantial part of their life there, and are of at least partial Black African ancestry. ..

Afro-Latino is a term used mainly for Black Hispanic and Latino Americans in the United States. This list contains a number of individuals from Latin America. I propose splitting off those individuals into a separate list, List of Afro–Latin Americans. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 21:43, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Her maternal grandmother was Cuban, half Spanish and half Afro-Cuban. More of a problem for inclusion is that she has few ties to any Latino culture than that she looks white.Pbrower2a (talk) 05:06, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
