So what? Why is it that noteworthy? Moriori (talk) 23:48, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

See Christianity and transgender - several Christians condemn transgender acts as sinful. This does seem noteworthy to me. utcursch | talk 04:10, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

Then it is implying something slanderous against a BLP. Yoninah (talk) 22:30, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

I shall propose the following as a suggestion. Montanabw^(talk) 02:48, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

ALT1 ... that Geraldine Roman is the first openly transgender woman elected to the Congress of the Philippines?

age and size are fine, article written neutrally, ALT1 is cited and faithful to background material. It is not controversial inasmuch as she is openly transgender. Agree about avoiding original hook. good to go. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 12:26, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
