Article is well written, has reliable sources, has no copyright violations and nominator has reviewed another articles. However, the following sentences need to be cited:
- "He resigned in April 2003 and the remaining months of his term were filled by his alternate, Cristóbal Galván Rodríguez."
- "Three years later, he ran a winning campaign for Senate, where he would serve in the LXII and LXIII Legislatures. He served on an array of commissions, including Radio, Television and Film; Government; Justice; and Public Safety, over which he presided."
- I'd also suggest that for the formatting of the citations that you put (in Spanish) after the title of the articles or put "Spanish" in the "language=" parameter of the citation template you're using, if you are using one, given that all the articles being cited are in Spanish. editorEهեইдအ😎 15:39, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
- @EditorE: Alright, I've done all of that. The second bullet comes from the SIL (Legislative Information System, a great biographical source for recent federal legislators). I found a source to more explicitly state the first, though it can be inferred from the SIL; he dropped all of his commissions where he served and his suplente (alternate) took the oath of office.

Ok, the article looks passable now. It isn't perfect, but we could use a fair amount of decent-length articles about Spanish topics on a English encyclopedia. editorEهեইдအ😎 01:11, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- The article says he tapped her to be the "local director of the DIF", not the president. Yoninah (talk) 11:49, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- I'm going to change the hook to read that, because it makes more sense to a general reader, but the Crónica source does say "Victoria Ruffo tomó protesta este martes 17 de febrero como presidenta del patronato del Sistema de Desarrollo Integral para la Familia (DIF), de Pachuca, Hidalgo".
