Vilma Núñez
Núñez in 2016
- ... that growing up, Vilma Núñez (pictured), now president of the Nicaraguan Center for Human Rights, struggled to find a school that would admit her as a child born out of wedlock? Source: "She and her mother showed up at a nun’s school and sadly for Vilma, they would not accept her. The reason: she was the daughter of unmarried parents." (La Prensa)
- ALT1:... that discrimination Vilma Núñez (pictured) experienced as a child born out of wedlock motivated her career as a human rights activist and attorney? Source: Under a section entitled “Victim of Discrimination”, there’s the above anecdote and then adds “Other events that pushed Vilma Núñez to first, study law and then to become a human rights defender” including the unjust manner of disbursing her father’s bequest to her side of the family (La Prensa)

Article is new enough (moved to Main Space 12/25) and long enough. Article is appropriately sourced. Earwig check run with no signs of violations - detected a long quote but the Wiki article appropriately uses quotation marks and attribution. The hooks are interesting IMO. Foreign language source material accepted in good faith. QPQ requirement satisfied. Photo is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0. Cbl62 (talk) 21:26, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I came by to promote ALT1. However, I only see that her early discrimination motivated her decision to go to law school. Where does it say it motivated her to become a human rights activist? Yoninah (talk) 22:27, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Yoninah. That is the part that reads
“...pushed Vilma Núñez to first, study law and then to become a human rights defender”
. That’s the literal translation of “defensora de derechos humanos” but “defensoro/a” is not solely used for lawyers, other advocates/activists are described with the same word. I used “activist” to clarify she does more than only legal work. Innisfree987 (talk) 22:56, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- I mean that it needs to say this, with a cite, in the article. Yoninah (talk) 22:57, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- Oh gosh, yes of course. It’s there now. Sorry for my misunderstanding! Innisfree987 (talk) 23:04, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Yoninah. That is the part that reads
