  • Adjust description of position to reflect world-view title of modern Cuban head of state..."revolutionary" is not a descriptive title of a governmental head.
  • 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
  • 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.
  • Add a section about the suppression of freedom of speech, all radio, tv stations, and newspaper that were shut down
  • Add a date for Castro's marriage to Mirta Díaz Balart.
