article stuffed with errors, inconsistencies, oversimplifications, and misleading suggestions, apart from spelling/syntax problems and total lack of sources. In brief: Franco was neither the Regency Council member nor its president.

„created the Regency Council on 26 July 1947” – the law was submitted for further proceedings on July 26, 1946 [not 1947]. It was approved in the referendum of July 6, 1947, and entered into force on July 27, 1947. The date of “26 July 1947” does not mark any particular event related
“and became its president” – the Ley de Sucesión en la Jefatura del Estado, which established the Council, specified that its president be the Cortes speaker
“This allowed Franco to hold this office as regent” – as Franco did not enter the Council and did not become its president, the statement is incorrect
“Following his visit to Portugal, from 22 October 1949 to 27 October 1949...” – not following, but during the visit
“...several politicians... “ - among 3 individuals who entered the body there was a bishop and a high military. The category of “politicians” is at least dubious here
“...became regent” – they did not become regents, but members of the Regency Council. They formed part of collective regency and the category of “regent” is misleading here. Perhaps a "co-regent" would have been better
“Later, following Franco's illness, the future king of Spain Juan Carlos was chosen as Franco's designated successor and became acting head of state from 19 July 1974 till 2 September 1974” – it has nothing to do with regency, Regency Council or its presidency. Juan Carlos was appointed provisional head of state, not member of the regency
“he [Juan Carlos] became King of Spain a couple of days later on 22 November 1975 and reigned until his abdication on 19 June 2014” – this is irrelevant and has nothing to do with the Regency Council presidency
List of regents/President [table]: Franco – incorrect. Franco was neither member nor president
Acting regents [table]: “Brief interregnum as Franco visits Portugal” – this was not an “interregnum”; there was no king, so there was neither any “interregnum”
Acting regents [table]: Franco "restored as Regent" – incorrect, he has never been formally a regent
Juan Carlos as head of state [table] – irrelevant and misleading. It leads to suggestion that Juan Carlos when assuming the throne was somehow related to the Regency Council

User:GB fan turned down my request for deletion claiming the entry should be edited instead of deleted. All right, I have edited it by removing all info which was rubbish. --Hh1718 (talk) 13:33, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
