I think Castilianization and Hispanicization cover the same ground. Since Wikipedia articles are about things, not words, having two separate articles is a form of content forkery. It seems from a cursory look through Google's Ngram viewer, as well as JSTOR and Google Scholar, that Hispanicization is the more common term. But if someone wants to make the case that the merge should go the other way, that's fine. — Ƶ§œš¹[ãːɱ ˈfɹ̠ˤʷɪ̃ə̃nlɪ] 03:19, 2 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Comment: IMHO I think that while Castilianization happens to communities of other West Iberian as well Basque, Aragonese, Occitano-Catalan and non-Romance-derived culture/language/religion, Hispanicization would be a better name for cultural assimilation outside actual Spanish metropolitan territory i.e. of Indigenous peoples, settlers of rivaling non-Hispanic nationalities (Europeans, Portuguese/Brazilians, U.S. Americans), foreign groups, the Reconquista "ideology"/sentiment and there goes, and of non-Imperialistic cultural/social/political influence in countries and regions such as Portugal, the Philippines, Southern Italy, Southern France and Southwestern United States, either in present or past. But I'm not particularly opposed to a merge, given the low development of both articles, so a section would not be a bad idea. Lguipontes (talk) 16:56, 4 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Support, but I think that Castilianization should be a section of the Hispanicization article, for what Lguipontes exposes.--HCPUNXKID (talk) 17:11, 15 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

There seem to be very few references/bibliography entries for such an important concept that not only has influence over current cities and states of the U.S., but also had influence from the moment the Spanish came to the New World. While the information provided is not out of date, I believe there is information that can be added to all the sections, especially those on the United States and Hispanic America. There are definitely plenty of sources that provide information on how each of these regions reacted to Hispanicization in the centuries that they encountered it--especially accounts where there was intermarriage.

Hispanicization in Latin America was a process that occurred over decades and centuries. From the outset the conquest of the native empires relied heavily on non-European contribution. Most of the armies that defeated the native empires comprised primarily of other native nations. In the subsequent years since European colonization began a large portion of the indigenous population was wiped out, including allies, due to a lack of immunity to introduced Old World diseases and not actual warfare. It was these circumstances that allowed Westernized biracials to thrive and prosper, a group who outnumbered those of mostly European heritage from early on in the colonization period, at the expense of those of mainly indigenous ancestry since they were less vulnerable to those diseases. So labeling Hispanicization as something carried out solely by people of predominantly Spanish descent isn’t entirely accurate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.253.48.183 (talk • contribs)
