Arturo Yovane
Chilean general
Arturo Yovane Zúñiga († September 24, 1997) was a Chilean Carabineros general who was among the first who instigated the coup d'etat project of 1973 and recruited César Mendoza to that same end. Once the dictatorship was established he was appointed minister of mining. Being part of a dissident faction within the dictatorship he was hastily removed from the ministry in 1974 and appointed ambassador at the newly established Chilean embassy in Tehran.

Why this record matters
The phrase “chilean general” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 11, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q19259691. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1997, 1973 and 1974.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
