Sonia M. Johnny

 * ALT1:... that St. Lucian attorney Sonia M. Johnny was twice selected by CARICOM nations to represent their interests in a trade dispute over bananas?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg New article, long enough. Posted by due date. Neutral BLP, well sourced. Earwig's Copyvio Detector: violation unlikely. QPQ done. Hooks verified in Marilyn Séphocle's book on pages 149-155, and the Carribean News website. This is GTG. I feel ALT1 may be more hooky to the global audience. Can we combine parts of the main and of ALT1 hooks, along the lines of her being the first woman ambassador of St Lucia, and representing CARICOM nations on banana dispute? This could be a candidate for the International Women's Day. Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 17:28, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the review. What is it about bananas that makes it more hooky--LOL? I thought that too. What about:SusunW (talk) 18:53, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
 * ALT2 ... that Sonia M. Johnny, the first woman ambassador to the United States from St. Lucia, has also represented CARICOM nations' interests in a trade dispute over bananas?
 * Symbol confirmed.svg ALT2. It is easy to go bananas with this, @SusunW, isn't it? Ms Sarah Welch (talk) 20:11, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
