 * Symbol question.svg ALT1, is good to go except for QPQ. Article is new enough, long enough, article is neutral with inline citations (I cited the ALT1 hook to the sentence, but it passed verification via Google Books). It is neutral, no copyvio or close paraphrasing. When QPQ is done, ping me and I'll tick ALT1. ALT0 I think is a bit difficult to follow, and I couldn't verify given Harvey 151 ( could you check the passage there, I could be missing something or the Google Books version could be different.) I'm assuming good faith that Kennedy does contain the info, but I can't access the page. I think ALT1 is safest here. If you prefer ALT0, could you double check they Harvey citation. I've read that page three times and I don't see anything about the rebels and the money. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:59, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. Sorry, I screwed up the page number. The negotiations with Alfonso is actually in p.152-153, the part about Alfonso taking the money but did not abandon the rebel is in last para of p.152 (and also in Kennedy).I fixed the article. I'll leave it to you to pick which hook. Yes sir I will get to doing the QPQ soon and ping you. HaEr48 (talk) 04:20, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Added QPQ. HaEr48 (talk) 13:19, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Good to go. Strong enough preference for ALT1 that I've struck ALT0 TonyBallioni (talk) 14:31, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
