== Quotation in [[Feminist metaphysics]] article ==
Judith Butler is quoted as saying "can only be understood through reference to what is barred from the signifier within the domain of [[corporeal legibility]]" in the [[feminist metaphysics]] article.

It's sourced to the paper "Critically Queer" by Butler here: https://doi.org/10.1215/10642684-1-1-17 , but I don't have access to that publication to verify it.

What makes me a bit wary is that this same quotation was cited in a hoax paper, see here: https://www.skeptic.com/downloads/conceptual-penis/23311886.2017.1330439.pdf

Can someone fact-check this, please?

See Talk:Feminism in South Korea#POV. I think there's some significant issues with the Feminism in South Korea article, and would appreciate people's input/help in addressing it. 104.232.119.107 (talk) 06:33, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Geena Davis Institute article

Hello! I'm Robin, posting here as part of my work for Beutler Ink on behalf of the Geena Davis Institute. I've disclosed my conflict of interest on the article Talk page and on my User page.

I'm looking for help improving the article, which has become a bit overly detailed and self referential. You can see my proposed changes here. The version I've proposed brings it back to focus on secondary sourcing. I'm posting here since the article is listed within this WikiProject's scope. Thanks for taking a look. Cheers!

Marie Curie

If Maria Skłodowska-Curie, commonly known as Marie Curie, wanted her surname to be Skłodowska Curie and her page should reflect that. It is only her common name because of sexism and xenophobia. See a further discussion here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzY5m_5ki0c Enfyslemle (talk) 07:32, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Enfyslemle, I understand the want to correct for historical injustices, but as an encyclopedia our role is to reflect sources, including when they change their stances on such things. It is our duty to inform readers about the world and how it is viewed as it is, not as what it should be. I recommend you take a look at why we can't right great wrongs. If you feel there are times this position further hampers marginalized voices, I would submit that it at least also protects them at a far greater rate.
