... that Ben LaBolt is the first openly gay White House Communications Director? Source: [1]
- Reviewed: Ninth and final QPQ of nine from Template:Did you know nominations/Arellano Chiefs basketball
- Comment: Please hold until March, or else the hook will need to read "will be the first" as Kate Bedingfield is stepping down at the end of February and LaBolt is currently only WHCD designate.

Overall:

While I admit I am a bit of a novice when it comes to reviewing, I do not see any problems here. The article is neutral, well-sourced, plagiarism-free, and long enough. The hook is also cited and seems to be backed by the source (AGF on paywalled information). I also agree that it should not be posted until it actually takes effect, but once it happens I see no issue with posting. Link20XX (talk) 03:47, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
