TFA blurb review
Carlos Castillo Armas (November 4, 1914 – July 26, 1957) was a military officer and the 28th president of Guatemala. After taking power in 1954 in a coup d'état that overthrew the democratically elected President Jacobo Árbenz, Castillo Armas consolidated his power in an October 1954 election in which he was the only candidate. A member of the right-wing National Liberation Movement party (logo pictured), he was also the first of a series of authoritarian rulers in Guatemala who were close allies of the United States. Under Castillo Armas, the reforms of the Guatemalan Revolution were largely rolled back. Land was confiscated from small farmers and returned to large landowners, and thousands of people were arrested, tortured, or killed under suspicion of being communists. In 1957 Castillo Armas was assassinated by a presidential guard. His policies sparked a series of leftist insurgencies in the country after his death, culminating in the Guatemalan Civil War, which lasted from 1960 to 1996.

Just a suggested blurb ... thoughts and edits are welcome. - Dank (push to talk) 00:23, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I may make some tweaks to the blurb later, but I think the image license isn't going to hold up to scrutiny; there isn't evidence that it is public domain. This is an issue I've wrestled with for a while: there's simply no obviously PD images available because nobody is quite upfront about the source of every image.

 * Thanks. I've removed the image, but please find another one ... it doesn't have to be of him. I found that one on Commons. Could you make your tweaks within 7 days, please? - Dank (push to talk) 21:31, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I'll try to do prose later today. Does the image have to be one that's in the article? If not, we could use File:Guatearbenz0870.JPG, which is a celebratory mural for the Guatemalan Revolution. There's also File:MLN Logo.svg, which is the logo of the party he belonged to. Vanamonde (Talk) 21:48, 12 November 2019 (UTC)


 * I've made prose adjustments and added an image; feel free to mess with both and/or make further suggestions, of course. Vanamonde (Talk) 22:31, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Perfect. - Dank (push to talk) 22:36, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
