Talk:Romualdo Pacheco

succession box is deprecated and redundant.
....before you continue to your revert campaign, as yourself a couple questions. 1) what is the purpose of the nav/suc boxes in the first place? 2) why would one have two imposing structures in the article that have the exact same function? 3) how many articles actually 'have' both that just haven't been cleaned up? once these questions are answered, a simple application of WP:SENSE is in order. --emerson7 | Talk 16:15, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * If you're referring to the succession boxes vs. the list boxes as the "imposing structures", the succession boxes give a nice concise summarized timeline of someone's political career - including years and chronology - that list boxes don't. List boxes just give a laundry list of surnames which is typically useless to me.  When I'm looking at an individual's article, I want to see the people and years related to that individual, not a list of every person that has ever held the same offices.  Why do I need to see "Reagan" and "Brown" in an article about a 19th century Hispanic-Californian governor when there is almost no relationship?  I am using WP:SENSE but come to a different conclusion.  Your assertion that the succession boxes are "deprecated" and that other articles just need to be "cleaned up" hints that there was a consensus reached somewhere that agrees with you but that has not been shown to me.  (And yes, I have asked). WRK (talk) 16:27, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Maybe many Americans would call him "non white," but that is hardly a global or historical point of view. 70.120.245.43 (talk)

"Pacheco then served as governor from February 27, 1875 to December 9, 1875, when Lieutenant Governor William Irwin, winner in the September elections that year, was inaugurated." So why was he governor? And why was he governor for such a short time? What's the story here? And who is William Irwin and what sort of election did he win? And why isn't this article better written? Who thought that this was acceptable? Gingermint (talk) 04:15, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
