GA Nomination edit

It seems to me that this article could be nominated for GA status. I'm not an editor of the article, just a person who is a part of WP Spain that looks for potential GA articles. I wasn't intentionally looking for them today (or lately, for that matter), but this article is appears to be worthy for a review. If I'm providing an inconvience for the editor(s), I apologize in advance. Thanks for reading! LeftAire (talk) 22:55, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
