If you post an article it will be assessed as it stands. If you don't want that to happen, you should write it as a draft. I deleted your article because

• it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that she meets the notability guidelines. Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to her, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what she claims or interviewing her. Most of your article consists of her talking about herself, sourced to her or interviews with her, not independent third-party sources.
• She may be notable, but that needs to be verified by independent sources, not her talking about herself
• it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, but you have created a platform for her talking about herself. A typical example of unsourced or self-sourced claims presented as fact include: to open a hole in reality that is not defined by what one already knows, but by what one does not know. This hole opens up in a gap between activism and academia, speech and action, ideas and experimentation. That is why it is both a philosophical and political commitment...
• the article was a copyright violation. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial but there is no indication that the copied sites allow free use, for example see © La Vanguardia Ediciones Todos los derechos reservados. Text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. Note that translations of copyright material are still copyright. Some limited quotation is permitted for example or discussion, but far too much of the article consists of quotations to be acceptable, and they are being used as platform for her rather than illustrative purposes.
• If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. That's particularly the case if you work directly or indirectly for her or her university, or otherwise are acting on her behalf.
• The different language Wikipedias are independent and have different rules. In my experience, the English language Wikipedia is much stricter than other versions, so the fact that there is a Spanish version is not relevant.

You appear to be a good faith editor. I suggest that you look at William T. Stearn or Pamela C. Rasmussen as examples of academic bios. If you have any questions or need help, contact me on my talk page. You can alternatively leave a message on this page, and I will know you have done so if you start it with my user name, User:Jimfbleak and sign it with four tildes ~~~~ when you post it. That will send me an alert. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:00, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
