Draft:Ximena Caminos

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: This is extraordinarily waffly. Sample "Ximena Caminos has been active in the art world, with a focus on the intersection of art, culture, and environmental issues. Her professional career has been featured in international publications such as The New York Times, The Guardian, and Vogue." What does "be active in the art world" mean? What has she actually done? If her career has been "featured" in publications, then tell us what the relevant articles said. Hoary (talk) 00:40, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment: Several words in this draft raises a red flag for me. Please read this. This version is better than the one on AfD, but the mention of ReefLine still kinda reads promotional. ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 01:30, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
