Keeping sexist language out

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. I think this could be viewed as sexist, even if the writer had good intentions.

@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. --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. --Otvm (talk) 00:29, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

Featured article

Pronouns are a part of language used to refer to someone or something without using proper nouns. In standard English, some singular third-person pronouns are "he" and "she," which are usually seen as gender-specific pronouns, referring to a man and a woman, respectively. A gender-neutral pronoun or gender-inclusive pronoun is one that gives no implications about gender, and could be used for someone of any gender. Some languages only have gender-neutral pronouns, whereas other languages have difficulty establishing any that aren't gender-specific. People with non-binary gender identities often choose new third-person pronouns for themselves as part of their transition. They often choose gender-neutral pronouns so that others won't see them as female or male.

More information...

@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? --NeoMahler (talk) 16:27, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

@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?

@Otvm: sorry for the late answer. Do you have any experience with the {{#switch:}} syntax? Maybe we could use it to change the title based on the {{CURRENTMONTH}} output (although that would mean that, if we ever change the featured articles, we should change the code here to). --NeoMahler (talk) 20:34, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

@NeoMahler: I think I fixed it. Do you think this will work? --Otvm (talk) 14:14, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

@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! --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". Wolle (talk) 17:24, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

@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? --NeoMahler (talk) 17:55, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Yes. That's the other option. Okay with me, too. 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. =)

Great minds think alike! Here's the Glossary of English gender and sex terminology :) --Ondo (talk) 07:57, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
