Article is new enough (6 days old at the time of nomination) and long enough (5251 characters of prose size). Hook is interesting, is cited and appears in the article. I'm assuming good faith about the cite because, although the cited source is in English and I understand English well, the cited source is behind a paywall and I can't access the cited page. Picture criteria do not apply as the hook has no picture. The article itself has a good and recognisable picture of Reinaldo Herrera. Copyright violation is unlikely as Earwig's copyvio detector scored only 7.4%. QPQ criteria do not apply as no QPQ is required for this nomination. JIP | Talk 21:07, 19 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
