Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Copy changes

I notice your style is to include side-by-sides of Spanish quotes with their English translations. I am not sure that is necessary at every instance, e.g. the William Soriano quote.

MOS:FOREIGNQUOTE
- I mostly meant having the translation there; having the English there of course makes sense. I suppose it's a writer's option to include the original or not, though, so I won't quibble. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:26, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

the United States Army Corps of Engineers described the river's waters as "severely contaminated" and a "biohazard", and recommended that contact with the river water "should be avoided" Remove comma (WP:CINS)

Removed

introduced a plan to decontaminated extra "D" at the end

Fixed
