My philosophy/personal guidelines on creating people articles: | |||
*Don't mention previous names ([[deadname]]s) | |||
*Pronoun choice can change over time. Rely on the most recent indication from the individual themself whenever possible. | |||
** E.g. on [[Lachlan Watson]] there is an interview from March 2019 where Lachlan says "I use he/him or they/them pronouns". ''However'', their Instagram bio only lists [[they/them]], and the account is frequently posted to, so these are presumably the most current pronouns. | |||
*Cite their gender from their own words as much as possible, not reporter's words. | |||
**E.g. if the headline says "Get To Know Genderfluid Artist Joe Schmo" the reporter or editor may be incorrectly using "genderfluid" to mean "nonbinary in general". Or it may be a misunderstanding/misreporting, as in the case of [[Billy Dee Williams]]. | |||
*Try to avoid using "identifies as" since it has a slight implication that "well they could be misguided/confused". | |||
**Exception for past labels the person has stated they no longer use. E.g. "They used to identify as a gay man but since then realized they are pansexual and agender." | |||
*Don't mention their birth assignment. | |||
*Avoid saying what procedures/etc they have or have not done for transition, unless they are really open about it, then it could be tastefully mentioned. | |||
*If you have any feedback on these, feel free to drop a note on my talk page. | |||
