This artcle seems very POV throughout. Anybody agree? Also, it is written in a sloppy manner, rather than an encyclopedic manner. It almost needs to be deleted and rewritten entirely.

For now, I am going to do you a favor and edit the remark that was put in red at the top of the page by someone who was too lazy to create this talk page. --Coryma 19:24, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

"Traditionally a sugar-producing region, the industry has been affected by state-imposed price control and sugar has been scarce for a over a year. Many small businesses specializing in dessert making or anything that depends on sugar production have had to close down."

--I'm going to eliminate the statement "no sign of sugar anywhere" at the top of the page, it is misleading and dishonest and carries political undertones. I was in Barquisimeto last month...and this statement is just plain dishonest and unnecessary.--76.19.118.125 11:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Cardenales de Lara logo.gif

Image:Cardenales de Lara logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
