Overall:

New enough (created April 9, nominated April 10), appears to be reasonably neutral, well written, very well sourced, and low Copyvio score (11.5%). I personally prefer ALT2 as I think it's important to highlight Choquei's importance and reach in Brazil's media landscape today. Always nice to see a well-written article on a topic relating to Brazil!
