César Portillo de la Luz[edit]

  • Article is too short at 1443 chars of prose. The hook isn't mentioned in the article, and it's misleading (what does "married America" mean—is it that their spouse is named "America", or does it have a strange metaphorical meaning?). I'm also not a fan of using peacock terms like "esteemed" in hooks, unless it's actually required for the hook. matt (talk) 13:28, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
Matt: Thanks for the review. I failed to notice that somebody had removed the "America" mention in the article (see hist), resulting in a loss of chars, and ultimately falling back below 1500 chars of prose -- because when I nommed this, it was long enough. I have now addressed the issue. Thanks. ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 13:50, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
Aha! That makes sense now, thanks! Length ok and hook cited, hook reference taken in good faith from Google Books. matt (talk) 18:04, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
