Copy edit of Julio A. Cabral-Corrada
Hi! I've reviewed your copy edit of Julio A. Cabral-Corrada. I can see that you're a new editor and will try to give you some notes on the basics first and then get into the trickier parts. You made improvements with the overcapitalization, serial commas, hyphenating the name consistently, and even added some useful links and inline cleanup templates. I think you just need some confidence (which comes with experience) to go a little further in the same direction. Extra stuff (more cleanup than copy editing): I feel that's about as much work as can be done without improving the spotty references which appear to include primary sources. There's not much sense working on neutral tone until there are more sources to give it balance. It's a start-class article, so nobody expects it to be perfect and even small improvements are still improvements. I can get a bit fixated on the Manual of Style minutia, but only featured articles are expected to be fully MOS-compliant. Overall, I'd say this is a good start for a new editor, and I encourage you to continue working on stub- and start-class articles while you figure things out. Also, if you haven't seen them already, there are a bunch of help files and tutorials at WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/How to. I see you already have a mentor in User:Septrillion, but please feel free to ask me if you have any questions. You can get my attention with in a talk page post. I hope this is of help. Please keep up the good work, and happy editing! P.S.: I added a *O to your article list to make sure you get the 50% bonus for an "old article" from the February–March backlog. – Reidgreg (talk) 21:40, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Capitalization – here are a few other places:
 * worked as an Investment Vice President – job titles get lower-case unless they're directly attached to a name, or if the job title itself is a proper name (MOS:JOBTITLE). Since this example uses the indefinite article an, that confirms that it's generic and not a unique position.
 * across Latin America and Emerging Markets – Latin America is a proper name but emerging markets is not (not sure why the link has a redirect from capitalization).
 * Section headers get sentence case; that is, the first letter of the first word gets a capital, and then only capitals as necessary for proper names, acronyms, or titles of works.
 * Spaces, punctuation and references – references go on the right of punctuation, except for closing parenthesis if the reference only applies to what's inside the parentheses. So Broadcasting Group[23], &rarr; Broadcasting Group,[23]  Also, try to watch for any stray spaces to the left of punctuation; these should be removed.
 * Hyphens and dashes – we tend to hyphenate compound modifiers for clarity: good-faith renegotiation. The hyphen ties the first two words together, showing they are closely associated in the phrase. On the other hand, public–private partnerships gets a dash because the terms are divergent; anywhere you could put a word like to or versus or against inbetween, it gets a dash.  Sometimes people would use a slash / but we try to avoid those on Wikipedia. (more at MOS:DASH)
 * Acronyms – we don't want readers to have to guess with acronyms and try to expand them on first occurrence in the lead and body. I took a look for ILR and found the article Cornell University School of Industrial and Labor Relations, and used that more-specific link in place of Cornell University's ILR School.  It's not always easy to find the acronyms, however, so you can place  the same way you used.
 * Straightened some curly apostrophes MOS:CURLY
 * All the short sections were of the same level; I did a little "layout" work to organize it a little better.
 * The infobox was a little sparse so I filled in a couple fields from the article.
