| I know it can help new binary [[allies]] to say "both", but it contradicts the rest of the sentence by suggesting that there are only two genders.

| :{{ping|Otvm}} thanks for pointing out! I have rewritten the sentence, tell me what do you think about it now (I have also removed the contradiction of "their gender can be neither"). I just added "both ''binary'' genders", because while it's true that there are more genders, there are just two binary genders. --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 23:58, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

| ==Featured Article==

| I think it would be helpful to give a small label showing which page the article is describing. It is slightly odd to be suddenly thrown into a description without first knowing what is being described. I have provided a possibility below. --[[User:Otvm|Otvm]] ([[User talk:Otvm|talk]]) 00:29, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

| :{{ping|Otvm}} that's right. Normally, the introductory paragraph already contains the title of the article (i.e. '''''Binding''' refers to a variety of methods that...''). Maybe the article name could be added in the section title? Like the example below. The yellow link at the bottom already takes to the page, so no need to have it linked in the title. What do you think? --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 16:27, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

| ::{{ping|NeoMahler}} That looks less confusing. I think it would be a better alternative to leaving it blank, and it looks somewhat less strange than the little thing in the corner. The only problem is title automation. Would we create separate pages under the featured article pages which contain only the title, or would we change it each month by editing it? Is there any other alternative?
| |
| :::{{ping|Otvm}} sorry for the late answer. Do you have any experience with the <code><nowiki>{{#switch:}}</nowiki></code> syntax? Maybe we could use it to change the title based on the <code><nowiki>{{CURRENTMONTH}}</nowiki></code> output (although that would mean that, if we ever change the featured articles, we should change the code here to). --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 20:34, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

| ::::{{ping|NeoMahler}} I think I fixed it. Do you think this will work? --[[User:Otvm|Otvm]] ([[User talk:Otvm|talk]]) 14:14, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
| |
| :::::{{ping|Otvm}} it seems good! I have added a comment so we (or future users) don't forget to change the appropriate switch parameter in case we change one of the featured articles. Thanks! --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 15:42, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

| =="Promotion"==
| |
|
| |
| I have doubts about the subtitle "The wiki dedicated to the promotion of nonbinary gender identities". Is this a sort of lifestyle we can "promote"? I don't think so. A gender identity is something people just have, it needs no promotion and cannot seriously be promoted. I think that this wiki should be "The wiki dedicated to the promotion of '''knowledge about''' nonbinary gender identities". [[User:Wolle|Wolle]] ([[User talk:Wolle|talk]]) 17:24, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
| |
| :{{ping|Wolle}} thanks for pointing it out. When I wrote that sentence I meant ''promotion of knowledge'', but I didn't like how it sounded so I made it shorter. I didn't realise it could be misunderstood. I have changed it to simply "The wiki dedicated to nonbinary gender identities". Does it sound better to you? --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 17:55, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
| |
| ::Yes. That's the other option. Okay with me, too. [[User:Wolle|Wolle]] ([[User talk:Wolle|talk]]) 18:14, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

| == Non-binary vocabulary ==
| |
|
| |
| Hi, I was looking at the front page of this site and I thought it could use a non-binary vocabulary page right on the front page so people could easily find it. Just an idea. =)
