Partially Translated from Spanish Wikipedia, Notability

I have partially translated this article from its Spanish Wikipedia counterpart, specifically the career section. The academic notability requirements she meets are criteria 3. Maria meets criteria 3 because she was Inducted into the Prestigious “El Colegio Nacional” of Mexico, which can only have up to 40 members at any given time (36 right now, 108 since founding in 1943).

Any constructive criticism would be appreciated, you can find the link to the original article below.

Interesting career, on fine sources, Spanish sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The hook is fine. In the article, please make a few changes:

don't call her by given name alone
don't leave bare urls

There may be more, but that's for a start. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:34, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think I've fixed those issues. See any more? QuakerSquirrel (talk) 17:07, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good! Find a link for her, please. No time right now, sorry. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:47, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Saw something else:

Once an abbreviation is established, stick to it.
I think that institutions with an article don't need translation.
In English, it's COVID, not COVD.
In the hook, perhaps no pipe for the university, to place it in Mexico even for us less familiar with UMAM. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:55, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think I addressed the issues that you pointed out. Can you take a look & see what you think? Thanks for the review.

It's definitely possible that I don't understand the orphan tag, but there is an article that links to her. She is listed as a member of El Colegio Nacional and is blue linked from there.
I think I caught the places were UNAM wasn't used.
I dropped translations for wiki-linked institutions.
Changed COVD-19 to COVID-19.
I'm fine with your suggested change. Not sure whether/how to change the hook properly or whether to leave it up to the promoter to do. -QuakerSquirrel (talk) 18:33, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you.

ALT0a: ... that when María Elena Medina-Mora Icaza was appointed to lead the psychology department at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, she proposed a "zero tolerance" policy for gender violence?

Getting closer, thank you. I formatted the first reference, - please do the others similarly. No all-caps even if the source has it. I suggest you write more lead, - a summary instead of leaving her in 2006 ;) - not needed for approval, just a service to a reader with little time. - I never add "Selected" to lists, but up to you. See you later. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:32, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

QuakerSquirrel, did you hear me? Please keep watching open nominations, actually even closed noms, because some get reopened. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:28, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Gerda Arendt. I did see this, but misread all of it as not necessary for approval. I changed the formatting of a couple of the references, although I left CISIDAT in all caps, because that refers to an organization that uses all caps as its name. I'm also still unclear on the approval of alt hooks--if you can't approve your own hook and I can't approve my own DYK, I thought perhaps a new reviewer was needed. Anything else needed from me before an approval? (ALT0a is fine with me.) -QuakerSquirrel (talk) 19:23, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, fine, I needed your approval for ALT0. A slight rewording doesn't make it "my hook". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:20, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
