Claims of Original Research

[edit]

Jamez42 made this revert claiming the material is WP:OR. Jamez42, please explain. The article [1] (which had been previously cited as WP:RS for the article before the addition that has been reverted) says:

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has repeatedly accused the United States of leading a coup against his government and said Guaidó and his international supporters are political puppets of the United States.
Vice President Mike Pence welcomed a new top diplomat from Venezuela to the White House Tuesday as part of the Trump administration’s strategy to help install new leadership in the South American country.

Please explain how the summary:

"part of Trump's strategy to install a new government, which Maduro calls a US led coup"

is inconsistent with these two quotes. --David Tornheim (talk) 21:58, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@David Tornheim: I'm glad you have provided the quotes. As it can be seen, Maduro is the main person that has made accusations of a coup attempt; in this case, attribution is needed. A leadership is not the same thing as a government, as Guaidó is currently President of the National Assembly and has assumed an important role in the protests. Recognition of a head state is also far from "installing" it, and since this is both a controversial and disputed topic extra care should be taken with this definition. In short, attribution and complementary sources are important. Best wishes. --Jamez42 (talk) 22:05, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
