Editing Quino (section)

==Early life==
Joaquín Salvador Lavado Tejón was born in [[Mendoza, Argentina|Mendoza]], Argentina, on 17 July 1932 to emigrant [[Andalusians|Andalusian]] parents from [[Fuengirola]], [[Province of Málaga|Málaga]]. Following [[Spanish name]] tradition, "Lavado" is his first or paternal [[surname]], and "Tejón" his maternal one. Because of his parents' limited social circle, he spoke with an Andalusian accent until the age of six. He retained an affection for his parents' Spanish culture and [[flamenco]] into his later years. He obtained Spanish citizenship in 1990 and remained a dual citizen of Spain and Argentina.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|last=Grijelmo|first=Álex|date=30 September 2020|title=Muere Quino, creador de Mafalda y el dibujante más internacional del idioma español|url=https://elpais.com/cultura/2020-09-30/fallece-quino-creador-de-mafalda-y-el-dibujante-mas-internacional-del-idioma-espanol.html|access-date=30 September 2020|website=EL PAÍS|language=es|archive-date=1 October 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201001132110/https://elpais.com/cultura/2020-09-30/fallece-quino-creador-de-mafalda-y-el-dibujante-mas-internacional-del-idioma-espanol.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=AM>{{Cite news|title='Mafalda' Creator Quino Dies Aged 88|url=https://www.animationmagazine.net/people/passings/mafalda-creator-quino-dies-aged-88/|last=Mercedes|first=Milligan|date=30 September 2020|access-date=30 September 2020|work=Animation Magazine|archive-date=1 October 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201001132111/https://www.animationmagazine.net/people/passings/mafalda-creator-quino-dies-aged-88/|url-status=live}}</ref>
