Hello
May I please ask why the category of far right politics was removed from Jiminez? He is referred to as right wing in a foreign policy article here: https://foreignpolicy.com/2012/01/23/remembering-the-fall-of-a-venezuelan-strongman/ Firekong1 (talk) 22:42, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi! Thank you for your message and sorry for the delay. My reason was mostly WP:CATV: the article simply does not mention any reference to far-right politics. The FP article similarly does not mention this, simply describing Pérez Jiménez as
a traditional, U.S.-backed right-wing caudillo in the style of Cuba’s Batista
. This is covered in categories such as Category:Venezuelan anti-communists. At any rate, his party New Order is already included in the "Far-right political parties in Venezuela" category. If there are sources delving into more detail, I would be happy to complete this information. Happy holidays! --NoonIcarus (talk) 11:38, 27 December 2023 (UTC)- Thank you for your response, no need to apologize. I apologize if it seemed like I was attempting to shove a partisan view into the article. I was mistaken adding it as I was subconsciously thinking of other right wing leaders backed by America who have been labeled as far right, such as Pinochet. I’m glad you cleared up that misunderstanding, and I will gladly find legitimate sources that describe Jiminez as far right in good conscience. Oh, and happy holidays to you to as well!

- @Firekong1: Not at all! No worries, I did not see it that way. Latin America's dictatorships could have different policies and sometimes even be at odds with each others, but all of them were autocracies, so it's totally understandable. Pérez Jiménez policies (especifically economic ones) arguably can be in the middle of the political left/right spectrum, but he would easily fit in the fascism category. I would be eager to help because if there are further sources (and I'm sure that there are) there would be plenty of content that could be used to expand on political views. Happy New Year and happy editing! --NoonIcarus (talk) 23:21, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you very much! I just wanted to clarify my intention with you because I have made the same mistake in the past, and some Wikipedia editors were not as kind and lenient as you, because they assumed my editing was for a disruptive intent to cause issues rather than a genuine conviction based on legitimate observable evidence. And thank you for your help, I will find more references to support my statements. It’s not just Jiminez that fits in the fascist and far-right category though. Thanks for your statement and your assistance And happy new year to you as well! :) Firekong1 (talk) 23:50, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- No worries! People sometimes can get jumpy in these moments, particularly when it's about politics, but one of Wikipedia's policies warns about not biting newcomers. If you explain your reasons for the edits or any confusion that you could have, everything should be alright :) Keep calm and carry on: there are many editors that will be happy to help or to guide, and editing can become really fulfilling.
- That said, you can let me know if you have other any other questions regarding "rules", editing, or so on. Volunteers are always needed and welcome. Best wishes, --NoonIcarus (talk) 23:59, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

Lima Consensus
Hi NoonIcarus
First of all, a happy new year to you and wishing you a pleasant 2024 ahead. Just to note though, your move of the Lima Consensus page has been reverted, initially following a request at WP:RM/TR to revert the undiscussed bold move you had made earlier. You should therefore not reinstate that bold move, unless it is confirmed in a WP:RM discussion. It really doesn't make much difference that it's nominated at AFD, there's nothing in the guidelines that says we have to maintain an undiscussed title just because you happened to nominate the AFD during the brief time that it was at that title. Cheers, — Amakuru (talk) 16:57, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
- Hi! Thanks for the message, and Happy New Year to you too :) My last move was mostly related to Liz's rationale, who said that the title was the one under which the AfD was filed under.
- I also wanted to point out that a disambiguation probably would be beneficial in this case, and that none of the terms seem to have preponderance over one another. Kind regards, --NoonIcarus (talk) 23:24, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

La Salida intro
Just wanted to inform you that I updated the wording in this edit since the previous version was inaccurate. There were no sources discussing "an effort to end to the Bolivarian Revolutionprevalent since 1998"
, but sources were saying there was "an effort to end to the government of President of Venezuela Nicolás Maduro"
, so I provided the wording of the latter. Hopefully this is an improvement and appears more neutral to you than the wording "an effort remove Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro"
and we can move on from this article. Again, I'm notifying you of this edit out of good faith. WMrapids (talk) 21:36, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- @WMrapids: Thanks for the notice. This looks like a fair compromise. Regards, --NoonIcarus (talk) 22:11, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
