Spelling

Resolved

 – Canonical spelling is "de Oro".

Should this article actually be Alfredo de Oro? — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 22:56, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Google News archive hits show plenty for "de Oro" and "De Oro" as well as "DeOro". — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 00:49, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Yep, the volume of hits, more research, and just basic knowledge of Spanish names says this article needs to move to Alfredo de Oro as soon as it handily survives its meritless AfD. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] ツ 01:18, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Nationality

Sources appear to differ on whether he was Spanish or Cuban. Anything authoritative? — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 11:32, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

PS: As a result of this dispute, the article now contradicts itself. The prose says Cuban, the categories say Spanish. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 11:33, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm going with Cuban for now. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 12:50, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Plagiarism

Too much of this article was directly plagiarized, word for word, from the back of a cigarette card. While it is not a copyvio, due to age of the source, it is still lame. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 12:50, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
