Lead edit

  • "Caballero was a relative of professional wrestler Irma González as well as González's daughter Irma Aguilar although it is unclear exactly how they were related." - seems odd. In the infobox, it states that she is niece to Irma González. Please clarify this
  • "She started out as a masked wrestler," - began her career
  • "but lost her mask in 1958 to Irma González, but would later wrestle under the mask again." - repetition of the word "but"

Biography edit

Professional wrestling career edit

  • "including Magdalena Caballero. Caballero would work" Try not to have the last word of a sentence start the next one like this.
  • "Her reign lasted less than a year as Irma González won the championship later that year." - in 1955.
  • "she would at times wrestle under her real name and at other times still use the "La Dama Enmascarada" name," - and sometimes the
  • "After the mask loss" - the loss of her mask,
  • "despite not being masked anymore." - no longer being masked.
  • "Due to very few records of wrestling from that period of time" - from that time period
  • "it's uncertain who defeated La Dama" - it is uncertain as to who
  • "On January 22, 1961, La Dama Enmascarada evened the score with Irma González" - the text in bold is not particularly encyclopedic
  • "as she teamed up with Chabela Romero to take on the team of Irma González and Toña la Tapatía" - repetition of "team"
  • "Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL) show in Guadalajara." - the acroynms are not needed since they are not repeated elsewhere

Personal life edit

  • "Caballero and husband Andrés Ramos had a total of six children together before their divorce in the 1950s" - the text in bold is not needed
  • "Magdalena Caballero died on March 11, 2006," - what did she die from? Do we know?

References edit

  • It looks like that Reference 1 is missing the page number that the story can be found on

Will put the review on hold to allow the nominator to address/query the points raised above. MWright96 (talk) 10:59, 25 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • MWright96 thank you for your review, I will look over the comments and made the appropriate updates. Note, I am going to be quite busy over the weeekend so I may not get to the feedback for a day or two. MPJ-DK (talk) 16:10, 25 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
    • MWright96 sorry it took me a bit, I had to e-mail someone who could actually see the archives of the newspaper since the article they sent me way back did not include the page number. I got it all that I believe I've addressed all issues. MPJ-DK (talk) 01:31, 29 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
