Proposed Editions
The most urgent problem with this article that must be addressed is its complete lack of in-text citations. In order to properly archive the vaccine revolt as a historical event providing valuable insight into the planning of contemporary Rio de Janeiro, it is essential to verify the claims made in this article to the extent possible. The body of the article itself is fairly comprehensive - the priority, therefore, will be to locate citations for every piece of information provided by the original author(s) while adding additional knowledge gleaned from the literature utilized in this process. These are encompassed within the following list:

Peer Review
Since one of the problems with the article is the lack of sources, I think the ones you found will really improve it. Also, I would recommend finding more information about the topic to expand the article.

It's great that you added sources to the article. I wonder if you could add any more information about the topic? Jgriffith19 (talk) 14:44, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

Positivist
A group of florianist and positivist soldiers, with the support of some civil sectors, tried to take advantage of popular discontent to carry out a coup d'état

I suspect that "positivism" has yet another meaning that is not identical to the positivism linked here and not covered by positivism (disambiguation). --Hob Gadling (talk) 08:53, 15 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Nope, it's the exact same meaning. Positivism (the one developed by Comte) was one of the main ideologies in the early years of the First Brazilian Republic. Torimem (talk) 10:20, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Huh. Weird. Thanks for clarifying. --Hob Gadling (talk) 11:23, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
