Overhaul of ambassador list edit

I took the time to condense the lengthy list of ambassadors into a bulleted list. I opted to remove the bits of information about appointment date, nomination date, etc. and simplify each entry to the ambassador's tenure only (e.g. from 19XX to 19XX). Details about when an ambassador was nominated, etc. aren't relevant to this article, and it just made for an extremely long and burdensome read. Anyone curious about such details can simply go to the respective Wikipedia articles of the ambassadors.

I will comment that although the list has been cut down significantly, it's still a considerably long list (over 100 ambassadors listed and categorized). Not sure if this warrants making the section into its own Wikipedia article in the future, but just food for thought. GabeIglesia (talk) 04:25, 9 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
