Proyecto Derechos Civiles[edit]

From this query, it appears that Proyecto Derechos Civiles was founded in 1996, so I reverted the edit that changed it to 1991. Is there overwhelming evidence that this was founded in 1991 somewhere?–CaroleHenson (talk) 15:42, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Moved to draft[edit]

I moved this to draft space because most of the content is uncited, which is an issue for a Biography of a Living Person. Otherwise, it could have been nominated for deletion.–CaroleHenson (talk) 16:03, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@CaroleHenson: Think it's ready to go back? --evrik ^(talk) 05:11, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Earwig gives a 50%+ chance of violation. Reviewing the results, the paragraph detailing Grutter v. Bollinger could be better paraphrased, as could the one beginning "In 1997, Orfield..." — Chris Woodrich (talk) 15:37, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Side note - apparently the nominator is blocked for socking, so this will need to be handled by someone else, or failed. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 15:39, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

With the nominator blocked, and no one stepping forward to adopt this nomination, I am marking this as rejected. Z1720 (talk) 15:20, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
