== Page you might have archived == | |||
I don't know if [[Gender recognition in education in the United States]] ever had content or if it was just a redlink, but it isn't available on archive.org. So if you have a copy, it would be useful to recover that page. [[User:Falkirks|Falkirks]] ([[User_talk:Falkirks|talk]]) 09:59, 28 February 2019 (UTC) | |||

Just wanted to drop way to thank you and tell you that it's always nice when you come back to do some edits! Feel free to ask anything you might need, you can also join the Discord server if you want to meet the other two admins ("apprentice admin").

: Thanks, it's great to be welcomed back! I'll have to try out Discord sometime soon, it seems to be the place everything's happening these days. -~~ | |||
== Structured Discussions migration == | |||
Hello, | |||
Just a quick note to tell you that all talk pages on this wiki will be migrated to the Structured Discussions method next Wednesday (this includes your own talk page). Old messages will be archived. If you would like to comment on that, you can do so in [[Nonbinary Wiki:General discussion#Structured Discussions 2|the General discussion]] page. Thank you for your contributions to the project, and see you around! --[[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 10:26, 5 April 2020 (UTC) | |||

== Cyan and other neutral names == | |||
Hi! Someone in the Discord server brought up that ''Cyan'' is missing from the neutral names list and it was removed with [https://nonbinary.wiki/w/index.php?title=Neutral_names_starting_with_C&type=revision&diff=24654&oldid=24215&diffmode=source this edit]. I remember you were working on these lists, so maybe we already talked about this, but I'm confused as to why this (and other names) were removed although they had a source that marked them as neutral/unisex/male & female. Let me know your thoughts! ^^ --[[User:Ondo|Ondo]] ([[User talk:Ondo|talk]]) 17:53, 23 April 2021 (UTC) | |||
: Thanks for asking about this. I've been thinking I should write about my emerging methodology for this project. Originally, I used to include every neutral name I could find, because I wanted it to be comprehensive. Then the name list got so long that I couldn't see how I could complete the project, and I was finding that it included a lot of names that sources said were neutral names, but which turned out not to be really used as neutral names. Lately, I've been instead limiting the scope of the name lists by only including those names where I can find statistics or other evidence showing that they have been used as neutral names, whether currently, or historically. I've been removing names if the statistics show they are used as feminine 90% of the time or more, or masculine 90% of the time or more (unless if there is evidence that the names used to be more neutral at a different point in history), or where I could not find statistics proving the name's gender distribution really is neutral, even though there are sources saying they are neutral names. (Cyan was one of the names where I did not find gender distribution stats about it, only sources claiming that it was neutral.) Limiting the scope like this helps make the project more manageable in size, and makes it so we can be sure that the names really are used as neutral names. On the other hand, sometimes I feel disappointed about having to omit a lot of wonderful names just because I couldn't find evidence that satisfied my rules for what to include. --[[User:Sekhet|Sekhet]] ([[User talk:Sekhet|talk]]) 00:11, 17 May 2021 (UTC) | |||
:: I'll just now post about this in the Discord, and ask what the community thinks is the best solution for names that don't have stats. --[[User:Sekhet|Sekhet]] ([[User talk:Sekhet|talk]]) 14:29, 18 May 2021 (UTC) | |||

Just wanted to leave a quick message to your talk page welcoming you back! Always nice to see familiar faces around :D Let me know if you need anything from me! --[[User:Ondo|Ondo]] ([[User talk:Ondo|talk]]) 23:09, 4 May 2022 (UTC) | |||

Hi! Glad to see you back from time to time! I think that the edit you made in that page, removing an entry because the author is anti-trans, doesn’t quite fit our goal. What do you think about re-adding it, maybe with a note that the author holds transphobic views? Let me know what you think! —-[[User:Ondo|Ondo]] ([[User talk:Ondo|talk]]) 10:04, 20 August 2022 (UTC) | |||
:Just an update to let you know I've undone your edits about this. A quick Google search didn't give me anything about the author's transphobic views, but if you have references feel free to add them. If you don't agree with the decision, let me know too and we can talk about it!--[[User:Ondo|Ondo]] ([[User talk:Ondo|talk]]) 17:01, 23 August 2022 (UTC) | |||
::All right. I just edited both the articles in question to cite references with specific examples of that author's anti-transgender views. My first choice had been to remove the entries about her entirely so as not to give platform to hatred. Instead we can forewarn readers of exactly what hatred exists. -[[User:Sekhet|Sekhet]] ([[User talk:Sekhet|talk]]) 16:31, 3 September 2022 (UTC) | |||
:::That works, thank you so much! --[[User:Ondo|Ondo]] ([[User talk:Ondo|talk]]) 16:12, 5 September 2022 (UTC) | |||
