 * Symbol voting keep.svg This article is new enough and long enough. Going with ALT1 because I was unable to verify that San Francisco Javier had any connection with alligators from the source, a Google book showing only mere snippets. ALT1 comes from the same source but is safer. The image is suitably licensed, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:58, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Could we go for more factual hook? I'd actually prefer the original hook because it doesn't imply that a (~1,900 year old) religious figure happened to intercede during a natural disaster. Fuebaey (talk) 13:54, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I proposed another hook if the two previous hook will not work for reviewers.--Carlojoseph14 (talk) 02:35, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
