 * 1) Starting review. Andrew🐉(talk) 13:43, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 2) After some informal discussion, I'm getting back to this and updating the table, point by point.  I'll make it clear when I've finished but it's bedtime now.  More anon. Andrew🐉(talk) 22:55, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 3) I've been distracted but have gotten back into this.  Engaging directly with copy-editing issues is perhaps over-stepping my brief but seems necessary to make good progress.  Some discussion of the detail on the talk page may be needed to thrash out particular issues.  It's getting late so I'll pause to see what people make of this update. Andrew🐉(talk) 22:03, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 4) More distractions but I've made an entry for each part of the checklist now.  As some of these have been addressed, I'll loop round again after a pause for further responses.  Apologies if this is slow going but it's my first GAR and I'm trying to be careful. Andrew🐉(talk) 19:25, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * No problems I'd truly rather we get it right than not. I do appreciate you sticking with it, as I know it can be hard to review. I'll go through and provide answers. SusunW (talk) 19:49, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) I've added some more points.  In particular, I wanted to get a taste of Se llamaba Elena Arizmendi as this is such a major source.  I've browsed the first chapter and feel that we can do more from what this has.  Have you good access to this work?  Does it not answer some of the details such as the exact fate of her child or children of her first marriage? Andrew🐉(talk) 20:29, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * As I have said, I don't have access to it. I wrote to Cano and asked if she had answers to specific questions that she would be willing to share from the book, but have had no reply. If you have found an accessible copy, please share it. Thanks! SusunW (talk) 21:11, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I found it at Academia where it seems to have been uploaded by Cano so I suppose it's fair use. The PDF seems to be a scan of the book.  I was able to OCR it and then translate it to English but the result was not pretty.  If you're fluent in Spanish, the original would be best.  Andrew🐉(talk) 22:26, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Let me read through it and I'll get back to you. SusunW (talk) 15:20, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I've read it and analyzed it below. SusunW (talk) 16:57, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

I'm not trying to rush you, but it's been almost a month since this began and four days since I answered the last of your queries. Will you advise me of what we still need to do to move the article forward? Thanks! SusunW (talk) 15:53, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry to keep you but some drama blew up which has been a big distraction. And then today my focus has been on a different WiR event.  That's on Zoom so you might like to try joining in one month.
 * Anyway, I need a break now but will try to do an update before I get sucked into something else like the WikiDataCon which has just started.
 * Andrew🐉(talk) 16:24, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry for drama. Hope it all works out okay. SusunW (talk) 16:30, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Hello -- I'm just checking in on the handful of GA reviews still in progress for the Women in Green GA editathon event. Are you able to continue this review? If you have any questions about the process, please keep in mind that WikiProject Women in Green is a great place for reviewers to ask for advice or a second opinion. All the best, Alanna the Brave (talk) 19:18, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I've not forgotten but the drama I referred to above has lasted about two weeks and there was a fresh incident today. And it has been a busy time for me with a college reunion and other commitments.  I'll try to wind this up tomorrow.  More anon. Andrew🐉(talk) 19:24, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
 * , I had hoped that we could finish this up today, but as more than half of the day has lapsed and it is evening on your side of the pond, it seems as if that is not going to happen. I have been patient for going-on 6 weeks to give you time to finish this review with an understanding that we are all volunteers and our time is split between real life obligations and WP. When you asked for more time, because it was your first review and because of other focuses, I agreed. However, at the same time, I have been unable to focus fully on my own other projects, as I believe I needed to be available to respond to your queries on this review in a timely manner. I do not wish to put more pressure upon you. In that light, I would respectfully ask that if you cannot wrap this up today, that you withdraw from the review. Perhaps can ask one of the other reviewers from the editathon to look at it to enable me to move this project off of my pending list. Thanks. SusunW (talk) 18:37, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reminder. I said that I would get back to this today and that's still my plan but it's easy to get distracted.  I've just started another article which may interest you but I reckon I've done enough now to get it started.  There's dinner to do too but otherwise I'll try to give this my full attention.  More anon. Andrew🐉(talk) 19:20, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok, I have completed the review. I've done the follow-up actions too but if I've missed something, please advise.  There's still 20 minutes to go before midnight but I'm travelling to a family funeral tomorrow and so will be mostly unavailable on that day. Andrew🐉(talk) 23:41, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
