How do you stop an article like this from simply becoming a Wikipedia summary?

Right now there's nothing this article has to offer that Wikipedia doesn't do better. Shouldn't there be some criticism about the transgender stuff? I don't know enough about gender dysphoria to comment on that. Also I think the heading should specifically say "trans rights" and not just gay rights since the Democratic party has pretty much accepted gay, bi and lesbian rights already and trans rights is still a taboo subject.

You give it to Rob Smith so he can turn it into a hate screed like he's doing to the one on Conservapedia.^{— Unsigned, by: 71.194.214.72 / talk / contribs 20:06, 29 January 2019 (UTC)}

Trans rights

This indicates that she does not view reassignment surgery as a legitimate medical need despite professional opinion stating the contrary, which could be reflected in her view of universal health care. ^{— Unsigned, by: Nerd / talk / contribs}

Something to look into further when writing this article. I saw a trans person on hbomberguy's fundraising stream explain how biased doctors and psychologists are about trans health, apparently in the UK you need to go through a shit load of traumatizing hoops and hurdles to be allowed coverage for gender dysphoria treatment. I'm too busy this week I'll see if I can continue this weekend.

You know, it made me realize that there's no wiki equivalent of an inline todo: like modern IDEs have. a {{todo|find out the names of the people who said this|date}} that silently adds that spot in an article to some central todo list would be awesome. I'm aware of the technical restraints on transclusion that make that very difficult, but it'd be cool. ikanreed ^{🐐Bleat at me} 18:41, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
