The contentious topics procedure applies to this page. This page is related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, which has been designated as a contentious topic.

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be blocked or restricted by an administrator. Editors are advised to familiarise themselves with the contentious topics procedures before editing this page.

This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more non-binary people. Precedence should be given to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, anywhere in article space, even when it doesn't match what's most common in reliable sources. Any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man/woman", "waiter/waitress", "chairman/chairwoman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification. Many, but not all, non-binary people go by singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use in articles. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Former, pre-transition names may only be included if the person was notable while using the name; outside of the main biographical article, such names should only appear once, in a footnote or parentheses.

If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the LGBTQ+ WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard.

This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Dana Zzyym article.

This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

Merger proposal

I propose to merge Jamie Shupe into Dana Zzyym. The former is the new legal name of the person discussed in this article and was written almost entirely by said person. Jamie Shupe should be deleted and limited details from it should be merged into here, but it is altogether irrelevant and consists of WP:COI edit anyway.

No. This is not the case at all. They're clearly two different people. Ones who have little in common with each other.★Trekker (talk) 13:02, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, they're both veterans to be declared legal non-binary firsts in the U.S.; and Zzyym vs. Pompeo is referenced on his page. I mixed them up. Good catch.

Gender-neutral pronoun

Per at least one of the references, https://www.reuters.com/article/us-colorado-intersex/u-s-court-rules-for-colorado-intersex-veteran-denied-passport-idUSKCN1M0241 , a gender-neutral pronoun is preferred by the article subject. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:10, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
