- Comments
- Was her name written as Avila or Ávila?
- Ávila is official Spanish spelling but most sources refer to her as Avila. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:10, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
- In "Prosecution and imprisonment" "..at the newly opened Orange County Superior Court" should be "..at the then newly opened..."
- "Her lawyer, George Hayford, himself of dubious standing". The source provided does not mention his name, but says that he was inexperienced and "probably crooked".
- Direct quote added.
- Are Ricardo Sánchez, Fred Gómez Carrasco, and Alvaro Luna Hernandez notable enough to have their own articles in the future?
- Definitely. I had already blue linked a number. I'll try to blue those too. The judge though, nothing on him, will de link.
- Is sanjuancapistrano.net" a notable enough source? Can we replace this with a better one?
- I believe so, it seems to be reliable source for local stuff.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:21, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
Overall, a very interesting read. -- KRIMUK90 ✉ 06:25, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review @Krimuk90:!♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:21, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
- One possible problem -- this article seems to confuse the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe Railroads.Cmuncey (talk) 19:27, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Which railroad?
[edit]The article states that "Avila was upset by the construction of the Santa Fe Railroad through her family's land", but then goes on to say that "Max Mendelson, the Southern Pacific's agent in San Juan Capistrano" said he had removed obstructions. The Southern Pacific and Santa Fe were (and are) different railroads, and it is rather hard to believe that the employees of one railroad would do work for a rival. Which is it? --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 19:53, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
