Final free-QPQ nom from nominator. Article of sufficient length and newness. Hook interesting and cited in source (well, quoted inline). Earwig detects no copyvio aside from again direct quotes. Good to go. Juxlos (talk) 06:12, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The hook is more about something other than the person. Bruxton (talk) 01:55, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeampierre is an advocate for climate justice and is from Puerto Rico. She has directly advocated for specific causes within the country brought on by climate disasters. I can understand how it might come across like a random statement made by somebody, but it really is a succinct way to capture her life's work. CaptainAngus (talk) 03:54, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
