If they are merged, which name should be used? --ThrashedParanoid 01:49, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Son
The Cuba article has the son replacing Machado and then being replaced by Batista. This says Machado replaced him. --Beardo 06:58, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

This "personal" portion of the article was confusing people. The revolutionary hero de Cespedes who died in 1874 was named President during a revolutionary Cuba titled "President of the Republic of Cuba at Arms". The confusion at least to me was because a son with his name also was named President of Cuba in 1933. So if you didn't have prior knowledge you could easily get confused. Look at the previous talk entry. That reader was confused. I edited the entry to differentiate the two President positions and better document.

different birth dates
At the top of the article it gives his date of birth as 1810. Later, in the vital statistics and life summary section, it is given as 1819. Which is correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by PaleHorse67 (talk • contribs) 11:33, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

Correction: contradictory birth date is in early life section. PaleHorse67 (talk) 11:36, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
