message: I have reverted it again to Moche and here is why: Virtually all the links are to Moche because that is how this culture is known in the English language. Also Google shows 10,000 links for Mochica Culture but 2.8 million for Moche. Clearly the primary name. Rmhermen 23:20, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Still true. If I am not mistaken, Mochica is favored only regionally  and is less common in the rest of the world. This Peruvian site introduces them as "the Moche or Mochica culture" then favors Mochica. However, this is English WP, and English sources do overwhelmingly favor Moche. This Spanish dictionary calls them "Los Moches" and lists Mochica as an adjective and language. Ruodyssey (talk) 18:06, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: File:MocheStag.jpg Nominated for Deletion

message: Removed the confusing claim that the Huacas del Sol and de la Luna are the capital.  The source for this claim (a blog that is rather more promotional than scholarly), actually doesn't support such a statement but says that the two structures are the center of the culture. In any case, they are buildings, not cities. The site is called Moche, and I replaced the building names with this. Also, the article clearly states that there is disagreement about the political unity of this cultural group; in light of this, perhaps the "capital" line of the infobox should be reconsidered.

message: Would it be possible to move this page to Moche culture, without the parantheses? For simplicity's sake and in keeping with other articles, such as Cara culture, Chachapoya culture, Chancay culture, Chimú culture, Killke culture, Paiján culture, Sican culture, Virú culture, Wari culture, etc. etc. -Uyvsdi (talk) 05:20, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree. Parenthesis are to be avoided and article titles uniform (if possible). Dentren | Talk 16:37, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

message: Okay, it's a quote, but depictions of the Decapitator don't show "tiger's mouth," because the Americas has no tigers.  It seems that it's a jaguar or maybe a dog's mouth.

message: I noticed in the wiki page article on pre-Columbian metallurgy in the Americas that the Moche are credited with being the only indigenous culture that were fully able to smelt metal into bronze before Columbus arrived. If this is accurate, and it sounds true, it certainly should be included. I’m not the best candidate for the task since my knowledge of the subject is limited and had never heard of the Moche prior to the reference mentioned. An interesting people and something of an accomplishment that should be mentioned.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sychonic (talk • contribs) 21:57, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

message: Hello! I and Beck Wollen are student editors for our Archaeology course. I just wanted to let you all know that I will be mainly focusing on editing the agriculture and irrigation themes of the article and touching a bit on the collapse of the society as well. I look forward to working with you all. Jennyfayfay (talk) 15:10, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
