Change Bio picture?

edit

Hi there,

I am unsure of how to do this, but I think it would be great to change the Bio pic for this article to a more recent one that aligns with Gavin's gender identity. She came out this month as a trans* woman, and has released a photo in which her gender expression appears to more closely match her gender identity than the photo currently on the page. [1]

Based on WP:NFCC, you may be able to make the argument that there's no free equivalent available as there are no free photographs of her with her preferred gender expression. --ChiveFungi (talk) 00:44, 8 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Birth name in lead

The birth name should be included in lead due to extensive prior notability, as recommended in MOS:CHANGEDNAME. This article was created in 2010 using that name, and remained using it for 9 years. -- Netoholic @ 12:23, 18 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

"Professionally Known as Rayna Russom" is incorrect

edit

Rayna has repeatedly explained in interviews and her social media that she does not use the name Rayna Russom professionally. She uses either the full name Gavilán Rayna Russom or the single name Rayna but never Rayna Russom or Gavilán.
