Net worth

I see that in 2006, Forbes ranked Castro as #7 on a list richest heads of state. May we mention this? I do not wish to bother if it has already been edited out. [1]

Family

What was his family like 2A02:C7C:A86D:F600:D5F5:428F:D34F:BBE3 (talk) 17:28, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Around his waist, he often carried a 9mm Browning pistol in a brown leather holster with three additional clips"

The the browning uses Magazines, not clips.

Change Clip to Magazine

Random Sentence

What is this sentence, "The publication "Forbes" valued the inheritance left by the former Cuban leader, Fidel Castro, at approximately 900 million dollars." doing at the end of the youth section? It doesn't relate at all with the sentence before and feels extremely disconnected. Cheesesprite (talk) 06:35, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The 900 million dollar estimate is mentioned three times in the article. Someone must think it is important. Burrobert (talk) 11:05, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"dictator, marxist" in opening sentence?
