Municipalities of Coahuila

This list is modeled cloesly after two successful Mexican municipality nominations Colima and Aguascalientes, keeping similar format and sourcing. I believe it meets featured list requirements but I am very open to any suggestions for improvement. This list is part of a greater goal of creating a featured quality list for all municipalities, adding to my previous 18 promoted lists of municipalities of North America all using standardized formatting, making them look more consistent and encyclopedic. Thanks for helping me on this project. Mattximus (talk) 14:10, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Comments by Dudley

 * I think first-past-the-post voting is more widely understandable than plurality voting, but that may be UK bias.
 * On the surface this works for me since I'm more familiar with first past the post terminology as well, however the source uses "plurality" and there are technically a few kinds of plurality that are not first past the post, and I'm not 100% certain that it is first past the post in local Mexican elections.


 * It is not an issue for this article but it is curious that the Mexican lists are in Category:Lists of municipalities, but not the US and Canadian ones.
 * They appear to just use topic boxes instead (which I actually prefer), whereas this one uses both (I personally find the category link at the bottom to be a bit redundant and ugly compared to topic boxes). I kept it since I had no good reason to remove some other user's work.
 * I find both useful and always use them. Dudley Miles (talk) 09:04, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I'll keep both for all of these lists of Mexican Municipalities. Mattximus (talk) 16:01, 23 June 2018 (UTC)


 * The dagger for state capital should be on the municipal seat, not the municipality.
 * It's the whole municipality that is the "state capital", the seat is the site of government for that municipality, which likely but not necessarily overlap.


 * For consistency, you should give the date of the name change of Guerrero, as you do with the other ones.✅
 * In note 4, you only give the second half of the book title.
 * Interesting find! I did some digging and it looks like google books has the title wrong, here is the official title:


 * Looks fine. Dudley Miles (talk) 17:37, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
