Hi Sammi Brie, review follows: article created 2 February and exeeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; I didn't find any overly close paraphrasing from the sources; a QPQ has been carried out; hook is interesting and supported by the cited source, one issue though the "pioneer ... in the United States" is mentioned in the lead the main text only says "pioneer ... in San Antonio". The source supports the broader assertion so this should be easy to change to "in San Antonio he became a pioneer of Spanish language boradcasting in the United States" or similar? - Dumelow (talk) 09:49, 6 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Dumelow: Added a more explicit mention from the offline source. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 22:48, 7 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
