That does not, however, mean that the forum title is wrong.
Paris is part of Europe, yet it has its own forum. That does not make the "Europe" forum title incorrect.
Basically, the forum title for a large geographic area means that it covers everything in that area which does not have its own forum. If Israel or Egypt were to get its own forum tomorrow, the "Middle East" forum title would remain unchanged.
True, but in the case of Paris/Europe, the Paris forum appears both on the main "The World" list and as a sub-forum under Europe. This is not the case for Latin/Central America, Mexico, and South America.
It would seem to this observer that to be consistent, we ought to either drop the Latin from Latin/Central as originally suggested, or add a "subforumesque" link to Mexico, etc. under the Latin/Central forum, a la Europe & Paris, South America & Argentina, etc.
