List of Presidents of Venezuela

 * Notified: OldakQuill (FL nominator), WikiProject Venezuela and top three editors of the article Saravask, Caracas 2000 (a blocked user), Sundostund

This list was promoted in 2005. It contains hardly any inline citations, which is a very significant defect. The citation style is not clear: explanatory footnotes and citation footnotes are mixed in the "Notes" section and there are four items in the "References" section (none of these four are properly formatted references). Except for two obituaries, all of the references are in Spanish. Of course, foreign language references are permissible, but that limits potential editors to add inline citations to those who understand Spanish. AHeneen (talk) 03:56, 9 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Demote: Serious citing and accessibility problems. Pretty much everything promoted before 2010 should have an eye put on it, the reviews were basically an arbitrary "yes/no" then. &#39;&#39;&#39;tAD&#39;&#39;&#39; (talk) 21:58, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delist - Citation issues are critical. Not only are they of an unusual/outdated style, but there is also a lack of citations throughout the text. Having Spanish references is perfectly fine for me, but the other citation issues are what persuaded me to vote for a delisting. This would take considerable efforts to bring to Featured List quality. Mattximus (talk) 23:59, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delist far from FL quality with so few citations. Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:18, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delist Unfortunately not up to par. Lacks citations where needed, table isn't properly formatted, and other issues. « Gonzo fan2007   (talk)  @  16:50, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Closing- no work done, and consensus pretty clearly not going to change anytime soon. -- Pres N  15:10, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
