Chabela Romero

  • ... that Chabela Romero, a pioneer in Mexican women's wrestling, had a feud with Irma González that played out over three continents? Source: Too many - basically the entire third paragraph - continents are North America (via Mexico), South America (via Panama), and Asia (via Japan).
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/The Little Players
  • Comment: After building several preps with no representation outside of North America and Europe, I am making a push to get articles from under-represented areas into DYK. This is nomination 5 in that effort.

Improved to Good Article status by MPJ-DK (talk). Nominated by The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) at 05:37, 29 May 2020 (UTC).

  • ☑Y Article is long enough (3360 characters), is a GA, nominated in time (became GA 28 May, nominated on 29 May), and article is within policy
  • ☑Y Hook is short enough, interested, well cited, and true (feud is in Mexico, Panama, Japan which are in North America, Central/South America, and Asia, so 3 different continents)
  • ☑Y QPQ done
  • Symbol confirmed.svg Overall, this nomination passes, congratulations. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:39, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg Template:Re I came to promote this but stopped because of the word "pioneer" which is not mentioned or cited in the article. Without strong sourcing it reads like puffery. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 22:14, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
  • It does not say "Pioneer", but does mention she was among the first group of Mexicn women to wrestle, which "Pioneer" is a synonym for - or reword it to actually say that instead of the word "pioneer"? MPJ-DK (talk) 22:45, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
  • I was going to propose a rewrite, but honestly, I think you're wrong on this one, Coffeeandcrumbs. Pioneer isn't puffery. wiktionary:pioneer defines the word as "A person or other entity who is first or among the earliest in any field of inquiry, enterprise, or progress." The source says that she was among the first female Mexican wrestlers. This one seems like a non-issue. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 05:52, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Let's just promote it without "pioneer":
  • Symbol question.svg Hi, I came by to promote ALT1, but I'm having trouble seeing 3 continents. I see she won in Panama, Japan, and Mexico. Panama is in Central America, which isn't even a continent. Yoninah (talk) 22:27, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Per the Wikipedia article Panama, it "is a transcontinental country in Central America and South America". Though I understand your objection. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 22:36, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
ALT2: ... that Mexican professional wrestler Chabela Romero had a feud with Irma González that played out across nine years and three countries?
How's that Yoninah? The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 22:43, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Template:Ping nice. But from June 1971 to February 1979 is close to eight years. Yoninah (talk) 22:45, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
