Template talk:Araujo & Carbayo, 2018

Spanish surnames versus Anglo-Saxon surnames

@Neferkheperre, @Christian Ferrer, @DannyS712

Hello, I think this template should be changed to 'Goulart-Araujo & Carbayo, 2018', the reason is simple: Latin American people (Central and South America, Brazil included, Spain and Portugal) use two family names (one paternal and one maternal), while Anglo-Saxons usually use a single family name (paternal). In this case the first author is a Brazilian biologist named Ana-Paula and surnamed Goulart-Araujo.

The author's page should indicate the template "DEFAULTSORT:Goulart-Araujo, Ana Paula"

Thanks a lot, --MartinGala (talk) 19:40, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

Doesn't sorting work different between Spanish and Portuguese names though? So I'm aware Spanish names sort by the first surname as you say, but Portuguese names sort by the second surname so many online guides say (including Wikipedia). (In both cases it is the paternal name, since Portuguese names swap them around to have maternal first). People in Brazil tend to have Portuguese names unless I'm mistaken, so it probably should be the latter? (Please correct me if I am wrong) Monster Iestyn (talk) 19:49, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks @Monster Iestyn: for your explanation and yes you're right about how portuguese and brazilians use surnames. My mistake was caused because her thesis director (F. Carbayo) is surnamed Carbayo Baz and in the references he is cited by the first surname. To get out of the mess I have consulted the brazilian magazine Papéis Avulsos De Zoologia, Papéis Avulsos De Zoologia and checked how they make the appointments themselves. Greetings and apologies to all for the inconvenience. --MartinGala (talk) 21:35, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
