| The contentious topics procedure applies to this article. This article relates to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them. Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be blocked or restricted by an administrator. |
| This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more trans women. Precedence should be given to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, anywhere in article space, even when it does not match what is most common in reliable sources. Any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man/woman", "waiter/waitress", "chairman/chairwoman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification. Some people go by singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use in articles. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Former, pre-transition names of living persons may only be included if the person was notable while using the name; outside of the main biographical article, such names should only appear once, in a footnote or parentheses.If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the LGBTQ+ WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard. |

Number of QPQs required: 2. DYK is currently in unreviewed backlog mode and nominator has 380 past nominations.

Article is new enough, long enough, and within policy. No copyright violations detected. QPQ is done because it was a double nom that was reviewed, and therefore counts as two QPQs. My only issue is a minor WP:DYKCOMPLETE issue. The article currently has no lead section with a subheading over the body as required by WP:MOS. Without that, the article looks like a stub. A lead will need to be created and a subheading placed over the body in order to meet the presentability component of WP:DYKCRIT. That shouldn't be too hard to do. Please ping me when this is done, and I can approve the hook. Best.4meter4 (talk) 21:34, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
- An unrelated nomination spilled into WT:DYK with a similar query, but in terms of plunging this nomination, I have expanded the article so that it now indisputably requires a lead, which I've now added.--Launchballer 15:09, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
Looks good. Nice work. Hook fact is verified and interesting. This one is ready to roll.4meter4 (talk) 02:47, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
