@Kingsif: New enough and long enough. QPQ present. No textual issues that I can recall and this article has some prose that definitely needed to be well written for NPOV, so that's good. ALT1 seems to check out, but I just can't find the appeared in part of ALT0 in the Slate source for the life of me! The sources are present where they need to be, but I do need that addressed to continue. Raymie (t • c) 05:51, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

@Raymie: It's right near the end! The final cut of the opening montage was eventually edited together by Ernst—including some footage from the Camp Camellia scenes. (Ernst can be seen on the dance floor, as a cross-dresser, with an old VHS camera.) Thanks for the review :) Kingsif (talk) 09:11, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

@Kingsif: There we go! Sorry I did not see that while scouring the source the first time. Raymie (t • c) 16:10, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I came by to promote ALT1, but the word "some" is very vague. In the article, I changed some groups to Hundreds of Twitter and Instagram posts, as well as several Change.org petitions, have called for the film to be boycotted or banned, per the source. How would you like to express this in the hook? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 15:11, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: That's the thing, I'm not sure if the source specified 'trans activists' or anything like that - would 'some activist groups' for the hook be less vague while still accurate?

@Kingsif: How about:
ALT1a: ... that all of transgender filmmaker Rhys Ernst's productions have been about LGBT+ issues, but critics still want to boycott his film Adam for being transphobic? Yoninah (talk) 10:38, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah: That's good. Kingsif (talk) 16:11, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

OK, restoring tick for ALT1a per Raymie's review. Yoninah (talk) 23:01, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
