Laura Jane is not notable for going loud as trans whilst fronting a punk band

[edit]

I can't edit this myself as I can't remember my password for my lastpass but Whilst Laura is notable for many things she is not the first by decades given that Jayne County went loud about being Trans in 1979 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jayne_County

Incorrect Name in Singles Section

[edit]

Ms. Grace is credited as "Laura Lane Grace" in this section, while the sources credit her correctly (Laura Jane Grace). 134.186.234.78 (talk) 00:14, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You should not include her birth name in the article as it's offensive.

[edit]

putting her birth name on display is not informative nor is it relevant. Roniosasios (talk) 06:20, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, by the way Wikipedia isn't censored, and nobody owns the article. If the birth-date is covered by reliable sources (which they are IMO) then they're OK to be kept. Am (Ring!) (Notes) 06:29, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia's policy on this is WP:DEADNAME: "In the case of a living transgender or non-binary person, their birth name or former name (professional name, stage name, or pseudonym) should be included in the lead sentence of their main biographical article only if they were notable under that name." Grace was well known before coming out, so we can't not include it. Issan Sumisu (talk) 07:36, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
