    : {{reply to|Mediator64}} I don't know if you're still around but: I've reverted a lot of the changes you made, partly because I found them to be non-factual / biased in favor of the trans perspective, but also partly because I simply didn't have the time to pick apart justified changes/corrections from parts that have such bias.  If I find time I'll take another look at the changes you had made and try to make sure that the article is factual and well-cited, but please note the following, which may have been unclear at the time you made the changes (it's explained on the homepage): The FeministWiki is not trying to offer a neutral point of view, it's explicitly pro-classical/radical feminism.  This means that, if a passage in a FeministWiki article is clearly conjecture, opinion, philosophy, guesswork, etc., then it's allowed to be biased in favor of radical feminist perspectives.  (Although it's best if feminist authors are cited to prove that it actually is their position, and not made up by FeministWiki editors.)  Only when a matter-of-fact claim is made, then it's important to provide concrete objective evidence in the form of citations.  For example the statements about minors receiving mastectomies and genital surgeries that I just added to the page *must* be cited (as they are, via Reuters), but conjecture on why trans activism seems connected to "sex work" activism doesn't require evidence, so long as the wording makes it clear that it's conjecture.

    @Mediator64: I don't know if you're still around but: I've reverted a lot of the changes you made, partly because I found them to be non-factual / biased in favor of the trans perspective, but also partly because I simply didn't have the time to pick apart justified changes/corrections from parts that have such bias. If I find time I'll take another look at the changes you had made and try to make sure that the article is factual and well-cited, but please note the following, which may have been unclear at the time you made the changes (it's explained on the homepage): The FeministWiki is not trying to offer a neutral point of view, it's explicitly pro-classical/radical feminism. This means that, if a passage in a FeministWiki article is clearly conjecture, opinion, philosophy, guesswork, etc., then it's allowed to be biased in favor of radical feminist perspectives. (Although it's best if feminist authors are cited to prove that it actually is their position, and not made up by FeministWiki editors.) Only when a matter-of-fact claim is made, then it's important to provide concrete objective evidence in the form of citations. For example the statements about minors receiving mastectomies and genital surgeries that I just added to the page *must* be cited (as they are, via Reuters), but conjecture on why trans activism seems connected to "sex work" activism doesn't require evidence, so long as the wording makes it clear that it's conjecture.
