Work removed without corresponding and it is now locked
[edit]I don't think all the changes should have been removed. No one have been active in responding on the talk page. The edits were done in good faith. I guess some of the history could have been removed, but I was in an ongoing process of improving it. I thought some of the context was relevant. Although I agree it should have been shortened. Other people have for a long time called the page out for being biased. I think this just locks it to bias. Adding history was an attempt to counter the bias that other people have addresed. 217.74.147.240 (talk) 05:28, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject LGBT studies#Massive expansion of "Transmedicalism. The main issues were unreferenced content or synthesis. If a source doesn't use the term "transmedicalism" then it's not relevant enough to use here. Readers can find context using links in the article. This doesn't preclude changing or adding context or provenance, but it has to be reliably sourced and the reference must say what we claim it says. — Bilorv (talk) 22:57, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Extremely biased and misrepresenting article
[edit]This article clearly has a biased agenda, but it appears impossible to edit it to have a more neutral representation. 217.74.147.194 (talk) 17:20, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
- @217.74.147.194 agreed. See the first paragraph:
Transmedicalism is the idea that being transgender is primarily a medical issue related to the incongruence between an individual's assigned sex at birth and their gender identity, characterized by gender dysphoria.
- This idea isn't Transmedicalism, but rather the most common definition of being trans. Transmedicalism, de-facto, is the belief that some people "aren't trans enough" and that one needs to "qualify" to be trans by fitting into specific stereotypes (e.g. transfems not being butch). I don't believe the de-juro definition of Transmedicalism, i.e. how they advertise themselves, is neutral and fitting to Wikipedia. RatherQueerDebator (talk) 07:47, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- As for sources:
- What is Transmedicalism and why is it bad on Reddit (social media, yes; this is for my de-facto argument)
- Transmedicalism on Gender Wiki (non-neutral, yet has references)
- I'll provide more if needed; I just find it to be more productive to wait for a response before dedicating effort possibly in vain.
