Wasn't Francia just a dictator? In that case, I think this article would be too positive. 80.61.232.49 21:22, 20 Aug 2004 (UTC)
This article should be moved to José Gaspar Rodríguez de Francia -- that is, with the accent marks. [[User:Poccil| Peter O. ( Talk)]] 04:17, Sep 11, 2004 (UTC)
Not sure where the December 25th date of death came from. Every source I could find said Sept. 20th, so I changed it to that. Everyking 03:45, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
In an interview dated from 1978 ( [1]), Roa Bastos explains that his book is not a historical book, no relation with reality should be clearly extracted from it. Considering that, I think that the note at the end of the article is not accurate. BTW, in the same interview Roa Bastos states that Francia had some "good things" (simplifiyng everything too much), he was not just a dictator as stated by the anonymous contributor in this discussion page. I can't explain the argument here, because my english is very limited, but Roa Bastos states that historical perspective of Francia government has been disordered by his followers at the power. He states several things worth noting: Francia had popular support; Paraguay was object of a isolation politic from other countries; Francia fought against aristocrathics interests in Paraguay, doing some kind of revolution in his country. Someone with enough criteria and understanding of Latinamerican politics could help reading the interview and adding some information here. Regards, -- Jdiazch 21:12, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
In ref. to the first paragraph: either he had little or no outside interference... which was it?-- Jickyincognito 18:08, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
It's not common sense that the father of Francia was from São Paulo. Although he had never denied it, we cannot claim it as simply truth. I've read the Doratioto's "Maldita Guerra" (sorry, I don't know the title in english, but is a acclaimed book about the Triple Alliance/ Paraguayan War) and he says, in the "references" part, about the discussion concerning Francia's father origins. One of the versions is this one, claiming his "paulista" origins, but there is another one saying he may have been a portuguese merchant established in Rio de Janeiro city. Doratioto's source for this one is the following: "Ensayo sobre el dr. Francia y la dictadura en Sudamérica, 2ª ed. rev. y aum., Assunção, Cromos, 1985, p.105"

There is an RfC on the question of using "Religion: None" vs. "Religion: None (atheist)" in the infobox on this and other similar pages.
The RfC is at Template talk:Infobox person#RfC: Religion infobox entries for individuals that have no religion.
Please help us determine consensus on this issue. -- Guy Macon ( talk) 19:55, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
Or so it says in the Political Career section. This is entirely possible, but if so the article needs a sentence or two describing why Paraguay indeed needed to do so again. Otherwise it should presumably be removed. 24.212.189.162 ( talk) 03:18, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
The article says that he ordered that he personally officiate all weddings. This would be significant if true as this is a whole nation and that would be incredibly impracticle. There is no source cited for that fact, does anyone know where it came from? I'd like to check it. Zane303712 ( talk) 15:34, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
