Mauricio González-Gordon y Diez

 * ... that Spanish marquis and sherry maker Mauricio González-Gordon y Díez exposed himself to some danger when trying to persuade dictator Franco to not drain Doñana?
 * Reviewed: John Ashley Kilvert
 * Comment: I've tweaked the material of the source(s)1+2 a bit to construct this hook. If you don't find the hook to be according to the original text anymore I will gladly change it. I actually like my hook better than what the article currently mentions, so I will very likely change it.  Update 6 November: The text in the article has now been changed.

 * Article is long enough at 1350 words and the date is correct. The hook is directly supported by the online source which says "he dissuaded Franco, at some danger to his person". The article is well-referenced, with at lease one reference per paragraph. I searched for copyright violations and too-close paraphrasing but did not find any. I would slightly trim and tweak the hook to read as follows:
