According to Bottinelli, Oscar; Giménez, Wilfredo; Marius, Jorge Luis. Enciclopedia Electoral del Uruguay 1900-2010 (in Spanish). Instituto Factum. pp. 132–143., the date of this partial elections of National Administration Council and Senate members was 8 February 1925, not 2 August 1925. I think this issue could have occurred due after a numeric date such as "8-2-1925" given in (an Uruguayan) source, an editor from a English based community with certain customs such as the date and time notation in the United States, interpreted the numeric date as if that date was read according to their society rules (Month-Day-Year), but that is not how the date customs are in Uruguay (Day-Month-Year), and that could led to the mistake and fake assertion. I posted this message instead of making directly the changes because there is a cited source, and I cannot access it. --Onwa (talk) 15:01, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The Nohlen book definitely says 2 August (it uses 02/08, but has 29/11, 25/11 etc for other dates, so clearly uses the DD/MM format), but it does look like this is an error so I've changed it. Cheers, Number5720:33, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
