| This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more trans women. Precedence should be given to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, anywhere in article space, even when it doesn't match what's most common in reliable sources. Any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man/woman", "waiter/waitress", "chairman/chairwoman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification. Some people go by singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use in articles. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Former, pre-transition names may only be included if the person was notable while using the name; outside of the main biographical article, such names should only appear once, in a footnote or parentheses.If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the LGBTQ+ WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard. |

Cris Miró in 1998
- ... that by being the first travesti to become a national celebrity, entertainer Cris Miró (pictured) increased the visibility of the Argentine transgender community in the country's society during the 1990s?
- Source: Página/12. Quote: "Su aparición pública cinco años atrás representó un momento de cambio en la visibilidad de las travestis." (English: "Her public appearance five years ago represented a turning point in the visibility of travestis."); "Cris Miró fue un símbolo: fue alguien que pudo exponer su trasvestismo, pero que además logró la aceptación de la sociedad. Porque antes de él, los travestis no tenían lugar y menos lugar público." (English: "Cris Miró was a symbol: she was someone who could expose her travestility, but that also achieved society's acceptance. Because before her, travestis did not have a place, least of all a public place.")
- Source: University of Buenos Aires. Quote: "No se puede ignorar que una de las que abrió y trazó el camino que vendría para que las travestis irrumpieran en la escena mediática fue, sin lugar a dudas, Cris Miró. Con ella, se logró visualizar la realidad de otras tantas travestis que ocupaban las calles, ofreciendo su cuerpo, 'poniendo el deseo en la puerta', tal como afirma Berkins." (English: "It cannot be ignored that one of the people who opened and traced the path that would come for travestis to break into the media scene was, without a doubt, Cris Miró. With her, it was possible to visualize the reality of many other travestis that occupied the streets, offering her body, 'putting desire at the door', as Berkins affirms.")

| General: Article is new enough and long enough |
|---|
Policy compliance:
- Adequate sourcing:
- Neutral:
- Not quite. The lede talks about a "media sensation" and describes her as "a symbol" and "an icon". It's not clear to me that there's sourcing for that. - Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:
Hook eligibility:
- Cited:
- Interesting:
- Other problems: - A couple of tweaks are needed here. "ushered the visibility" doesn't make sense (raised/increased the visibility?) Also, it's a bit redundant to say "Argentine" three times, and I don't think all three times are necessary.

Overall: 
This article is really good, and can definitely run on DYK with a few tweaks. Let me know if you have any questions or you're ready for a re-review. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 21:37, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
- I modified the text and sourced the claims made in the lead section. Please let me know if its okay. Thank you!Rumba Samba Mambo (talk)

- This is so close, Rumba Samba Mambo! The one thing I still don't see support for in the lede is the very last bit,
and a trans icon for the local LGBT culture.
I don't read Spanish fluently, though, so if it is supported by the source feel free to tell me that and I'll assume good faith. Otherwise you could just remove that line and this nomination would be good to go. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 18:22, 14 June 2021 (UTC)- Thank you Ezlev! The source simply describes her as "the first trans icon of Argentina". I notice the sentence was maybe a stretch, so I removed it. Rumba Samba Mambo (talk) 18:35, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
Approved! ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 19:08, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
