(Explicitlly) ambiguous

edit

   The 'gator density of the accompanying swamp may be too high for me, so for now i have to be satisfied by unpiping one link : in the lead, the term "queer" is quite reasonably linked to the quite broad corresponding WP article, but i found that later the same term was piped to Sexuality and gender identity-based cultures.   I summarized

unpipe "sexuality and gender identity-based cultures", since "queer" has already been lk'd to queer in the lead, establishing the presumption that's the article's sense of that term

and a first crack at trying to explain the logic of the later un-piping in detail, to those who don't find it obvious, suggests it's too obvious to justify the effort beyond saying that links are there to enhance prose that would still be good without the links. And if it's not obvious, i may not be the best messenger, to go beyond saying what i have. But rattle my talk page if you object.

Primary topic?

edit

   Last i checked, Primary topic still meant significance indicated by majority, not plurality, of uses of the ambiguous term. Googling ("tribe eight" OR "tribe 8") against ... AND (music OR band) (and ... AND (game OR "role play")) suggest only a not-even-x2-plurality, so the accompanying currently-named Tribe 8 article-content should probably be renamed to Tribe 8 (band), and Tribe 8 become the title of the Dab page that would supplant the Hatnote in dab'g between the band and Tribe 8 (role-playing game).

Finding sources for pronouns and possible trans-ness

edit

After this edit popped up in my watchlist I looked at the edit history and also noticed this edit, and felt it'd be good to try to find sources saying whether the person does or doesn't identify as trans or use certain pronouns.

  • This 2010 interview uses "he" and includes Breedlove saying "I identify as trans but I am seen by most people as genderqueer or as a dyke, so I accept those labels too." (At one point the interviewer asks "Coming from something of a riot grrl background, how has it been doing trans work? I feel like our communities often don’t talk about the losses and struggles we face when changing gender identities. Have you had to cut ties with your past?" and LB replies "Sure, there are times when I’ve been invited to or questioned whether or not I should be at an all-girl event. Sometimes the curator will change the title to include me as a female-bodied person." A May 28th 2002 article about Breedlove, "Making herself heard", in The Advocate No. 864, page 66, says "There are only a few things in 43-year-old Lynn Breedlove's semi autobiographical first novel, Godspeed (St. Martin's Press, $24.95), that the [...] self-described transgender dyke hasn't actually done: 'I've never train-hopped,' she says.", suggesting that the editors changing things to "she" may be relying on that older identification.)
  • This 2018 interview says the same thing, including the line "As a transgender man himself, Breedlove[...]".
  • Breedlove's website also uses "he".

Before I see about restoring some of the deleted categories and verbiage relevant to that, would anyone like to bring any other sources to bear? -sche (talk) 19:59, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

I restored the categories (and also formatted the article a bit), but if there are other sources, please bring them up. -sche (talk) 21:33, 2 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
