Miguel Ángel Mancera

This peer review discussion has been closed.

I've listed this article for peer review because this is the first time I wrote an article about a BLP, any kind of biography, and a non-musical article. I'd like to know what is missing and if there is information that may be removed. I think the article is a WP:GA material, so it may need a c/e (English is not my first language, so there may be gramatical, prose and syntax errors). Any kind of suggestions are welcomed, Thanks, Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 20:42, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

  • All done, excepting for "revalidate". In Spanish it has sense but I don't know how to say it in English. What I'm trying to say is that he had to took 4 new classes to validate his studies from the Faculty of Medicine to the Faculty of Law to make the change. Thank you so much for the review.
