406:(proportional) coverage to what has been published about Palocaren. And those comments by students are what I found (there were also several additional anecdotes by Easwaran, but I didn't want to give his views undue coverage). I think that the article adequately represents the material (if not, please fix it!). The fact that these descriptions of Palocaren are quite positive does not seem surprising -- it's not every educator who is still being celebrated more than 60 years after he died. And these recollections are informative -- they give a sense of who he was, and why he left a strong impression (Note: there are also unattributed descriptions of what Palocaren did that appeared in the recent newspaper articles that were cited, but those are a unclear about whether they were repeating things that were said at the birth celebration, or whether they obtained their material from elsewhere, so I didn't cite them... but someone else is welcome to try to find an appropriate way to cite that material... again, it would be positive). A WP biographical article should reflect (in due proportional) what people report about a person, and I believe the article is fully in conformity with 428: 383: 410:
in this regard - and if not, I will support/contribute to efforts to fix it. So now what? Have I persuaded you? Or should another opinion be solicited? Many thanks for your efforts in reviewing. Best regards --

I also prefer alt 1. However, I have concerns with the article length and neutrality. The comments by students seem out of place and non-neutral, and if they were cut then the article would be too short.

I now prefer ALT1 (above) to my original hook because I think it has a better balance of former students - plus, all 3 have Knowledge articles. --

I'm still rather iffy, but I guess it's good enough for DYK.
