* Add a section about the suppression of freedom of speech, all radio, tv stations, and newspaper that were shut down
Revision as of 04:30, 17 June 2008
Expand lead section - should be 3/4 paragraphs per guidelines. Given the length of the article, four paragraphs would be preferred.
Improve the Embargo section
Get a peer review
Remove material well represented elsewhere - ie. much of the Foreign relations material. (see Foreign relations of Cuba)
Add a survey of what "rank" Castro was during famous military actions -- has he always been comandante? what were the insignia on his lapels or epaulets, when he wore such things?
"External links" section must be cleaned up and better categorized
Fix discrepancy of Fidel Castro's letter to FDR. He was born in Aug 1926 but the letter is dated Nov 1940, which means he was 14 when he wrote it. But in the letter and the caption it says he is 12.
Shorten abstract. Move relevant material to body of article. (intro shouldn't be so long; especially as to obscure index)
Search for a greater variety of sources. For example, the sections wealth and US Embargo are clearly written to portray the Americans as the "good" guys, and Cubans as the "bad" guys.
Remove POV and un-cyclopedic sources.
Adjust wording for removal of POV.
