A review of the article is requested edit

Please, I kindly ask the Wikipedia staff to proofread the article. I have cited dissertations, degree projects, press articles, architecture magazines, and more. One Wikipedia user had deleted all my work and just left 12 sources, not even the most relevant.

@QuinteroP: Why did you write to 14 editors and didn't ping me? The edit was not vandalism, and you have already opened a peer review of the article. --Jamez42 (talk) 16:23, 13 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
I have been following your contributions since the mess you left in es.wiki QuinteroP. In short, per WP:NOTESSAY, I think you don't fully grasp how reliable sources works and how to write an encyclopedic article, meaning that is quite darn different from the «tesis de grado» about Sabana Grande that you are trying to pull in here. I am totally behind the aproach of blowing it up and start over,--Oscar_. (talk) 01:51, 25 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Jamez42 and Oscar .: Could you perhaps start with summarizing what is so terrible about the previous version that you find it important to remove so much content? I am unable to find this explanation anywhere, but maybe I'm overlooking something obvious. Thanks. effeietsanders 02:45, 25 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Effeietsanders: Hi! The summary of the peer review so far is that the article is too long, is written like a travel guidebook, "contains lots of trivia, statements that are unsourced or from unreliable sources, and personal opinion" (violating WP:NOTGUIDE and WP:NOTPLUG). Citing an example given in the review, this article is twice as long as Caracas', and this article is about a neighborhood in the city. I think the best option is moving this version to the main contributor's workspace. --Jamez42 (talk) 06:49, 25 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
And to be noted that this is a translation from Spanish and QuinteroP was challenged about the poor quality of his contributions in Spanish many, many times. In response he simply decided to leave, hopefully he now will listen. --Oscar_. (talk) 11:00, 25 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

@QuinteroP: Hi! Any thoughts? You wrote to 14 admins and started a peer review of the article, yet you haven't commented on the insights so far. --Jamez42 (talk) 06:50, 25 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
