... that Ryan T. Anderson wrote an anti-transgender book that topped the Amazon bestsellers list in the Gay & Lesbian Civil Rights History category? Source: “Amazon is giving credibility to an anti-trans book by allowing it to gurgle its way up to the #1 spot in the category of Gay & Lesbian Civil Rights History, a place it could not possibly deserve less to be,” journalist Matt Baume tweeted

Reviewed: Exempt (2nd nomination)

Created by Bait30 (talk). Self-nominated at 18:30, 18 June 2020 (UTC).[reply]

- Nominator is exempt from QPQ. Article is well cited, the sources all appear to be reliable. Prose checker gives 1546 characters, so just barely long enough. Article is neutral in my opinion. Hook is interesting, neutral, and supported by an inline citation in the article. This looks good to go. Hog Farm (talk) 03:14, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Transgenderism"[edit]

This article makes use of the term "transgenderism," which is both vague and is generally not accepted nomenclature. Would probably be good if someone could rewrite that sentence. Frojojo (talk) 06:23, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Is "hate-peddling bigot" appropriate for an encyclopedia?[edit]

That sure seems correct *in my view*! Were I publishing an encyclopedia, though, I would only use value-free terms. That's how this is supposed to work, isn't it?

The last thing a collaborative, open-source project like this needs is to needlessly antagonize such bigots. The facts speak for themselves. 24.228.253.59 (talk) 07:15, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
