I would like to include a disambiguating reference to the JSF reference implementation (https://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net/), but I don't know how to do that. Could somebody give me a hint on how to do that? Thanks in advance. Bruno Unna (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 11:49, 5 June 2009 (UTC).Reply
Mojarra seems too ambiguous to be the title of this article. Although it may be understood to mean Gerreidae in the ichthyological literature, and FishBase gives it as the common name of that family, in common usage small-to-medium-sized freshwater cichlids may even be the predominant referent. Have a look, for example, at Google image search results for the word. Ordering mojarra at a restaurant in California will get you a tilapia (whatever kind of tilapiine cichlid is common on the market around here). When I was researching angling possibilities for a vacation in Costa Rica, many guides referred (in English) to mojarra as a common freshwater catch without any reference to an ambiguity, and associated images when they appeared were unambiguously of small cichlids. Since most of these species live in predominantly Spanish-speaking places, I might guess that searching after a Spanish name or an English borrowing of one is likely to be the reason many or most visitors to this page got here, and the cichlid meaning seems clearly to be the predominant one in Spanish. Cichlids form the great majority of species listed in Fishbase with the common Spanish name of mojarra, and the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy gives as the primary (and only ichthyological) definition of the word what appears to be a description of a tilapia. Links to this page from others in Wikipedia seem to be about evenly split between those referring to saltwater and freshwater fish (when it can be ascertained).
I suggest that Gerreidae is not the unambiguous primary meaning of the word mojarra and this page would be better moved to Gerreidae and Mojarra used as disambiguation.
