Questions about wording
editThis entry has the following paragraph : "After this episode, she left him and returned home, only to find out that her home was now being used as a brothel. Isabel, maybe being naive, at first did not know the women occupying her house were selling their bodies to men, as she thought they were giving out sex only because they liked it. However, soon she discovered they were selling themselves, and she began to do business in prostitution." What kind of nonsense is this?? She moved back into her home to find it inhabited by women having sex? It sounds like a surrealist movie. This is quite obviously not verifiable; it doesn't even make sense.
The diffs have very contradictory versions of events, and nothing is cited in support of anything. --TJive 19:56, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. This reads like a bad gossip magazine article. I'm not too inclined to research it through, but perhaps I will later on. Oppenheimer was extremely well connected and was a powerful social force in her hometown... well enough to have a movie made after her. However, whoever wrote this better come back and clean this up(!) Demf 16:35, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Date of birth
editThe article right now has Isabel Luberza Oppenheimer's date of birth as "approximately 1910", with no reference. I am changing it to 1901 following a scholarly source (La mafia en Puerto Rico by Luis Alfredo López Rojas).--Lawrlafo (talk) 04:36, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Date of Death
editI went ahead and expanded the date of death based on information in this source: La mujer negra en la literatura puertorriqueña: cuentística de los setenta: (Luis Rafael Sánchez, Carmelo Rodríguez Torres, Rosario Ferré y Ana Lydia Vega) by Marie Ramos Rosado.--Lawrlafo (talk) 04:58, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Propose change of title of article
editI would like to propose a change of title of this article to the actual name of the individual (Isabel Luberza Oppenheimer) as opposed to her nickname.--Lawrlafo (talk) 04:58, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Isabel la Negra#History and legends section needs changes
editI fully agree with the above contributors that this section is very poorly written and needs revisions and documentation.--Lawrlafo (talk) 05:32, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Incorrect Naming Customs Information
editThe article currently has a mistake. This person's last name is Oppenheimer. Her first name is Isabel, and her middle name is Luberza. Note 1 claims that "Luberza" is her first last name. ("This name uses Spanish naming customs: the first or paternal family name is Luberza and the second or maternal family name is Oppenheimer.") This is incorrect. The name should be alphabetized under Oppenheimer (Oppenheimer, Isabel Luberza).--Lawrlafo (talk) 20:07, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
