Back Swamp, North Carolina queen...I can relate to the rural NC childhood. Anywho, I'll take a look at this article. APK hi :-)  ( talk ) 23:57, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Lede...


 * Maybe mention where she grew up and her being Lumbee in the lede?

Early life...


 * I feel like "Early life and education" could be expanded a bit if you have sources. I don't see any mention of Back Swamp, which was always referenced on DR. This source mentions it.

Career...


 * her full drag name is constantly used, instead of just Matthews after the first use
 * Yes, this is intentional and consistent with other drag queen articles promoted to Good status. This is because "Matthews" is not a true last name, and in many cases, a drag performer's last name is awkward out of context. For example, we would not refer to Alaska Thunderfuck as "Thunderfuck" throughout, or use "Icunt" as shorthand for Detox Icunt. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 01:40, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Personal life...


 * Mention specifically where she's from in NC
 * I've moved mention of Back Swap to the early life section. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 01:40, 9 December 2023 (UTC)


 * link "indigenous" to either Native Americans in the United States or Indigenous peoples of the Americas

 * Thanks so much for reviewing! Please let me know if anything else is needed here. Has been a nice break from restaurant entries, but I've just nominated a couple more for GA status for fun. Happy editing! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 01:40, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Everything looks good. Nice job! I've been writing about art and artists, so yeah, a break from the norm is nice. I have several GANs waiting as well. APK hi :-)  ( talk ) 02:23, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
