Overall: 
ALT1 hook is not cited in the article (though the reference is shown here in this nom). I like ALT1 better than the original hook. The wording works better. I would not be opposed to a reworked hook that discusses the Puerto Rican aspect, however. I would also suggest reworking the article to have several sections (Reception, Character biography, History (covering the history of the character being created), and so on. This would also help make the article not a stub. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:16, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- @Nihonjoe:
- I removed the stub tag. The article is larger than the various minimums listed at WP:STUB (Ten sentences, 250 words, and 1500 characters). I also divided it into sections.
- Why does the reference need to be split? I've done that on numerous GA articles and have never been told such.
- The citation for Alt 1 was located at the end of the second sentence following the claim, since it supported all three sentences. I've duplicated it directly after the claim. Argento Surfer (talk) 12:54, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- @Argento Surfer: The reference should be split so you know which one is being used. This also allows the references to be used elsewhere in the article without any confusion as to which one is being used. Having two different articles referenced in the same footnote is kludgy and a bit lazy, too. Thanks for splitting it. The article looks much better with the sections. Everything looks good to go! ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 16:56, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
