Note I changed marker to designation, as that certainly seems more natural offhand. (Marker sounds like something to do with DNA.) However, does marker have some special meaning I don't know? EEng (talk) 07:04, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
 * ALT1... that Autumn Sandeen was the first US service member to publicly have her gender identification changed on all her military records?

Your ALT1 hook looks great to me. Thanks for the help. --EvanRo (talk) 17:38, 23 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed. (Struck original hook since ALT1 seems to be preferred by nominator.) BlueMoonset (talk) 06:08, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough, long enough, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref verified and cited inline. QPQ done. I changed "gender designation" to "gender identification" per changes in the article. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 21:37, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
