message: The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.
*The lead of this article may be too long, or may contain too many paragraphs. Please follow guidelines at WP:LEAD; be aware that the lead should adequately summarize the article.[?]
*The lead is for summarizing the rest of the article, and should not introduce new topics not discussed in the rest of the article, as per WP:LEAD. Please ensure that the lead adequately summarizes the article.[?]
*If there is not a free use image in the top right corner of the article, please try to find and include one.[?]
*Per MOS:CAPTION, Images should have concise captions.[?]
*Generally, avoid including galleries in articles. Common solutions to this problem include moving the gallery to wikicommons or integrating images with the text.[?]
*Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Units of measurement, there should be a non-breaking space -   between a number and the unit of measurement. For example, instead of 0 mm, use 0 mm, which when you are editing the page, should look like: 0 mm.[?]
*Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Units of measurement, when doing conversions, please use standard abbreviations: for example, miles -> mi, kilometers squared -> km2, and pounds -> lb.[?]
*Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Section headings, headings generally do not start with articles ('the', 'a(n)'). For example, if there was a section called ==The Biography==, it should be changed to ==Biography==.[?]
*Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Section headings, headings generally should not repeat the title of the article. For example, if the article was Ferdinand Magellan, instead of using the heading ==Magellan's journey==, use ==Journey==.[?]
*Per criterion 2b of Wikipedia:Featured article criteria and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#Headings and sections, this article's table of contents (ToC) may be too long – consider shrinking it down by merging short sections or using a proper system of daughter pages as per Wikipedia:Summary style.[?]
*Please make the spelling of English words consistent with either American or British spelling, depending upon the subject of the article. Examples include: honor (A) (British: honour), harbor (A) (British: harbour), neighbor (A) (British: neighbour), neighbour (B) (American: neighbor), favorite (A) (British: favourite), meter (A) (British: metre), defense (A) (British: defence), recognize (A) (British: recognise), realize (A) (British: realise), ization (A) (British: isation), isation (B) (American: ization), orthopedic (A) (British: orthopaedic), traveled (A) (British: travelled), program  (A) (British: programme), programme (B) (American: program ).
*Watch for redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's redundancy exercises.)
**Vague terms of size often are unnecessary and redundant -  “some”, “a variety/number/majority of”, “several”, “a few”, “many”, “any”, and “all”. For example, “All pigs are pink, so we thought of a number of ways to turn them green.”
**“In the year [of] 2000”
*The script has spotted the following contractions: didn't, Don't, if these are outside of quotations, they should be expanded.
*As detailed at Help:Footnotes and Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Punctuation and footnotes, footnotes are usually located immediately after a punctuation mark, such that there is no space in between. For example, the sun is larger than the moon [2]. is usually written as the sun is larger than the moon.[2][?]
*Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a.[?]

thread_title:  Overhauling this article 

message: According to  who gets cited in some other old papers (p.27), Pánfilo de Narváez founded the settlement that would become Havana. Not sure if this has been litigated in academia in the hundred years since, but the sources in this article don't seem to contradict Wright. SamuelRiv (talk) 05:09, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Founded by Narvaez 

message: I am aware of the notice, but I still want to write that this article is unnecessarily and exaggeratedly long. JackkBrown (talk) 02:29, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
