At Talk:Chelsea Manning
Hello! I understand you're disgruntled about the Wikipedia community's guidelines for writing about transgender people. However, Wikipedia is not a forum for general discussion. This talk page is specifically for discussing actionable and policy-based improvements to the article Chelsea Manning.

Gender and Sexuality is considered a WP:contentious topic (formerly called "Discretionary Sanctions") by the WP:Arbitration Committee, which means there are much stricter expectations for good-faith, constructive, and collegiate behavior from editors in this area, not just in articles but in project-space as well. Emotional arguments and personal attacks are not compelling, and may lead to action against you such as blocks or topic bans. Misgendering living people is unacceptable. See WP:GENDERID for more frequently asked questions about transgender-related editing.

A more appropriate place to discuss our guidelines would be WP:MOSTALK. However, please know that MOS:GENDERID is the result of over a decade of well-attended, long-running, oft-repeated WP:RfCs, and—admittedly—are very very unlikely to change. If you would like to quit Wikipedia and find an encyclopedia project which is more validating of your personal beliefs, even as they conflict with mainstream WP:reliable sources, see our article List of online encyclopedias, particularly Conservapedia.

All that said, I hope you will stick around, maybe consider creating an account, and improve Wikipedia's articles on topics which interest you. –RoxySaunders 🏳️‍⚧️ (💬 • 📝) 17:49, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
