Substantial article, GA pass implicates meeting of DYK criteria. AGF for Spanish-language sources used in ALT0 and ALT2. QPQ has been completed. Approved for ALT0, as "first role in years" and "become emblematic of the series" feel vague, and an actor coming up with the voice for their own character doesn't feel especially interesting.

@Morgan695: ALT0 is over 200 characters long. Yoninah (talk) 02:23, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah: Maybe something like: Morgan695 (talk) 02:36, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ALT0a:... that production on the first season of The House of Flowers was shut down twice: after an earthquake injured one of the leads, and when a store objected to homosexual content being filmed there?

Or:
ALT0b: ~~... that production on the first season of The House of Flowers was shut down when an earthquake injured one of the leads, and when a store objected to homosexual content being filmed there?~~ Yoninah (talk) 11:37, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I feel like the "shut down twice" part makes it hook-ier, but I don't feel strongly enough about it to oppose. Morgan695 (talk) 17:21, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Restoring tick for ALT0a per your original review. Yoninah (talk) 17:35, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Article title

Am not clear as to why the article title is in English when the program is of Spanish origin for, presumably, a Spanish audience.

Other works titled in their native languages are listed here at Wikipedia under their native language titles/spellings.

So, what makes this one different? 2600:8800:784:8F00:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 02:18, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mexican-Spanish origin for a worldwide audience... all works with an official English title use that on the English Wikipedia unless there's a good reason to keep the foreign-language original. Netflix, as a international platform, released this show with at least three official names: in Spanish, English, and German. You may find it useful to read MOS:FOREIGNTITLE.
