Alejandro Murat Hinojosa[edit]

5x expanded by Raymie (talk). Self-nominated at 23:45, 7 June 2016 (UTC).

  • The article is long enough. It is written from a neutral POV. There don't seem to be any copyvios, and the hook is cited. However, you need to specifically cite the information from your hook that says he ran for governor of Oaxaca. Raymie Could you reword the hook to include that there was an issue with him running to make it more interesting to know that he was allowed to run because his parents were citizens of Oaxaca. Also, the article is not clear about what the questions were about whether he could run for office or not. It is implied that there were issues about his running because he wasn't born there. I would make sure the wording of that paragraph is clear and explicit.Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 22:14, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
  • @Amgisseman(BYU): Alright, I've reworded and extended the hook to mention the Supreme Court decision, and in the article to clarify the eligibility requirements for governor of Oaxaca. We should be good now. Raymie (tc) 22:29, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Raymie Sorry it took me so long to get back to you! The new wording is more clear; however, now it is over the 200 word count. I have proposed a different hook that is shorter. What do you think? Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 19:08, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

ALT 1: ... that although Alejandro Murat Hinojosa was born in the State of Mexico, he was allowed to run for governor of Oaxaca by the SCJN because his parents were natives of that state?
