Hi @Erick Soares3: Firstly, it is a great article which is definitely new enough (created on June 21) and long enough (81,350 characters; 54 times the min. required characters!). It cites sources with inline citations and Earwig's Copyvio detector shows Violation Unlikely. Just a issue with the hook. It is 296 characters long, 96 more that 200 characters (maximum limit). Try to add ALT hooks and rephrase the main hook. There are definitely many interesting facts in the article which can be added here. QPQ not required. Image, I guess is licenced fine and looks fine in 100 px. Possibly, cite the hooks too, or mention which Sfn or book is the source. Since I have taken a look at the article, a general comment that convert Notes in the articles as Explanatory foot notes (although not required for DYK). It is a really nice and elaborate article!!

Hi @Kavyansh.Singh! Thanks for the reply! It really took sometime to translate and since I took so much time reading the article and about the subject in other sources (there's even a movie based upon the event). But since the general subject is the same, I can cite the book that I read some time ago. I just added an condensed hook. Erick Soares3 (talk) 19:10, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

– I couldn't access the book but the fact is surely assumed in good faith. I did some copy editing of hook and added WP links. I prefer ALT1, as it is within character limit, and I found it interesting enough. (have strike main hook as it is still longer than 200 characters) The admin promoting this nomination could surely rephrase of make some necessary changes. @Erick Soares3, It is good to go from my side! Thanks! Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 04:53, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have replace an image in the article with this image as the image nominated with the hook must be used in the article. Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 05:08, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Kavyansh.Singh, the book is on Google Books (Capítulo 6: A Luta Pela Posse pgs 219-262 - I've updated the reference to be more precise), but I hope that some day the Internet Archive may digitize the book, since I already used it on the Portuguese and English articles from João Goulart and it is also an work that deserves an English translation... Thanks! Erick Soares3 (talk) 13:39, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just a note: the hook should say "led" rather than "lead" for the past tense verb. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 00:32, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
