Bolivia
editI've just read that the Virgin Mary is officially recognised as an "Admiral of the Bolivian Navy", and was formally crowned in 1925 as "Queen of the Bolivian Republic". I know it sounds absurd, but I'm not making this up. It's from a newspaper article ("Virgin on the miraculous", about Copacabana, Bolivia, by Campbell Smith, in The Age, 3 July 2004). Is there any truth to this? -- JackofOz 04:45, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

editI think many of the patronages listed here are correct, but they lack references. Yet I am sure some were added by IPs here and there, and may not be correct, so in time this needs to be reference checked. History2007 (talk) 23:21, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
- How do we know if this edit was correct? I do not even know if we can have any chance of verifying these patronages. So what is to be done? Only three realistic options:
- Shrug our shoulders and say: someone will check it in a few years. In effect accepting totally unverified info in Wikipedia.
- Put some type of requirement that unless something is ref checked it does not go in after now. I do not know what policy there is for this, except revert/revert.
- Delete all the ones without references (namely 95%) and go from there.
- Suggestions? Thanks. History2007 (talk) 12:19, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
There are more from now on.
