... that Sabina Matos, the Lieutenant Governor of Rhode Island, did not speak English when she immigrated to the United States at age 20? [1]

Comment: New from a redirect that I created on March 25. She's a nominee for Lt Gov, no timeline on the confirmation hearings, so the wording on that depends on the timing of this being posted.

Article is a new redirect, expanded to a suitable length, hook is interesting but have to AGF on the non-English and subscription-only services. Copyvio tool reports a near certainty of copying https://frwiki.info/en/Sabina_Matos-2626444644 - I assume this is a reverse copy? Also needs a QPQ.

Ritchie333, that's a reverse copy. I wrote Matos' article from scratch using the sources, and that site has it copied over. QPQ is provided. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:12, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Okay, that's good to go, then. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 09:51, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

The confirmation process is scheduled to begin on April 8.[2] It shouldn't be too long for her to be confirmed. I know, WP:CRYSTAL, but the Rhode Island Senate is controlled by Democrats, and McKee and Matos are Democrats. Assuming there are no skeletons in her closet that come to light in the next week, it should be a cakewalk and shouldn't take long. I suggest not promoting this until she is sworn in. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:52, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

It looks like somebody jumped the gun and changed the infobox from "politician" to "officeholder". It's only just gone 7am EST so that's a little premature, but in 12 hours time this issue should be moot. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 11:20, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

She is still an officeholder, in the Providence City Council. Her full confirmation vote is scheduled for April 13, and she could be sworn in the same day.[3] – Muboshgu (talk) 21:12, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
