Explanation.
Hi there. I see you got reverted by the bot. Obviously, the bot can't explain why properly so I'd like to point you at the relevant policy. This should help to calm your fears about transphobia on Wikipedia. I'm not saying that there aren't any transphobic editors but our policies are strongly against transphobic editing. You are 100% right that using deadnames is usually bad and that is our policy: MOS:GENDERID. The exception is when an article is about a person who was notable under their deadname, in which case we include that name, in as limited a way as possible. This is necessary to avoid confusion as some of the reference material will typically use their deadname. We want the reader to know that this refers to the same person. Also it is possible that a reader will search for that person under their deadname, not knowing that they have changed it. When this happens we want the reader to find the correct article. Every so often somebody tries to moan about the policy, as you saw on that Talk page, but it doesn't make any difference and it is better to leave deflecting their complaints to the more experienced editors. --DanielRigal (talk) 01:16, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
