Note on periodization

[edit]

Hey I'm just going to type this here for anyone else who wants to read or comment.

So the infobox right now periodizes his life into his "Prime Minister" period, and his "President" period. This makes sense but is a bit reductive since Castro has had many positions throughout his life, even during these periods themselves. I think it might be best to just generally periodize his life by the Provisional government period (1959-1976) and the constitutional period (1976-2011) of his rule. These titles encompass pretty much the same timeframes but also don't imply he only held one position during these times. Mangokeylime (talk) 18:19, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
