Talk:Manuel Córdova-Rios

Tone and style of article

I have added the Template:Story tag to the top of the article, because it is essentially a synopsis of the author's sensational autobiographies. These stories are, as mentioned in the article, doubted. I considered adding the Template:In-universe tags or the Template:Fan POV tags as well. I am not sure how much verifiable direct coverage there really is about this person. Wizmut (talk) 21:42, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
