Which gender pronouns to use

I started a discussion at BLPN to get others' viewpoints. --Ronz (talk) 17:46, 13 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And someone more familiar with such cases pointed out MOS:IDENTITY. --Ronz (talk) 20:01, 13 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lede vs Controversies section

If I had the time, I'd move the entire last paragraph of the lede to the Controversies section, rename the section, merge in the additional material already in the section, then just summarize it with a sentence or two to the lede.

Anyone have other ideas? --Ronz (talk) 16:37, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know. I've got to say, the reporting on this I've looked at is really dire, and I'm starting to think none of it can be used as sourcing for a biography. This is probably the best (DSD is an actual term in current use, at least, even if it's in no way specific), but it still exhibits a prurient interest in her genitals. Morwen (Talk) 18:09, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. As a first step, I'm going to move the much better-written material from the lede. --Ronz (talk) 22:42, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Testosterone injections

Wouldn't the testosterone injections disqualify her and warrant her medals being stripped to begin with? Is there more to this? The sources linked reveal little. SamuelRiv (talk) 23:59, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
