I'll review this one with the intent to approve the original nomination. Interesting issue, the heteronym.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 12:33, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Article is long enough Hi Ffranc I've added some content I found in a source by Jeronimo Pizarro, the same author of another work you cite. I am ready to AGF all the rest but would be delighted if you could copy edit my additions before I really give the check.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy compliance:

• Adequate sourcing: - AGF
• Neutral:
• Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Most is good. Original hook approved. Article is long and new enough but the phrase about boasted to have little education, I'd prefer to see sourced before approving it. On the rest I AGF as I can't access the sources but in a source I had access to, a lot was the same. Only that it was the Issue No.4 I could not find, therefore I removed it. I have made some additions regarding his birthdate and places where he stayed of which I'd be glad if Ffranc could approve of them as well or copy edit a bit.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 15:24, 29 June 2023 (UTC) Paradise Chronicle (talk) 15:24, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

• Thanks for the additions! I did some copy editing and formatted the references you added. Here is the part about boasting in the source: "He had no profession and almost no education. He was a poet 'almost ignorant of literature,' who, in his own work, boasts of never having read certain authors such as Virgil, or simply of passing the time 'without reading anything, or thinking anything.'" I had given the wrong source for Athena #4, I've replaced it and readded the info ("...The Keeper of Sheep — brought to light in 1925 in the magazine Athena (no. 4)...") Please let me know if anything more needs to be done. Ffranc (talk) 12:20, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks as well for the copy edit and the SNF formatting. As for me it's good to go, I believe both of us "know" Caeiro pretty well by now. But I can't access all the sources, therefore also with some AGF. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paradise Chronicle (talk • contribs) 13:22, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
