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 LGBT WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard. |

Possible synthesis edit
Two New York Times articles are cited as sources for The case was the first in the nation to get a conviction for a hate crime involving a transgender victim. Both were written before Andrade's conviction and discuss the use of the hate-crime statute. The April 16, 2009 article was written on the day the trial began and discusses how the case may set a precedent for future handling of hate crimes involving transgender people. Neither directly say the above statement. This case is notable for its legal impact. I've added that section with an expand tag and moved the article info here. momoricks 22:16, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Angie Zapata → Murder of Angie Zapata – WP:BIO1E - makes more sense to have an article on the event than the person, as we do in other similar situations (see Murder of Gwen Araujo). Elli (talk | contribs) 00:21, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
