@Peaceray: Its long enough and the hook is too. All are reffed and no evidence of close paraphrasing but the sources are in Spanish. No image in article but likely there is one taken in a country that allows reuse (e.g USA gov employee). Part of the great work by Peaceray who has identified a good number of centenarian notable women who were Women in Red. My only query is that she is the oldest woman in Costa Rica and there is no ref. 110 would seem young as the oldest man is 121. If it is correct then ALT1 will work.

- Victuallers, the ref for Camacho Quirós being the oldest verified person in Costa Rica is from Supercentenarios.net, which is the site of Latin American Supercentenarians (LAS). That link is https://www.supercentenarios.net/las-personas-vivas-m%C3%A1s-longevas/#h.cr65aw3uifsd & she is at line #23, the oldest listed for Costa Rica.
- I have searched Google & Flickr, but have been unable to find a freely licensed image. Peaceray (talk) 21:23, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
I can only approve the first hook (others are my suggestion) and that's fine Victuallers (talk) 10:12, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
