Template:MOS-NB[edit]

Because this article contains material about one or more nonbinary-identified people, it should adhere to Wikipedia's guideline on gender identity, even if it is not a biography. "Use context to determine which name or names to provide on a case-by-case basis" per MOS:GENDERID. If the current name is chosen, according to MOS:IDENTITY, such a subject should be referred to using the gendered nouns and pronouns that "reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification". Many, but not all, nonbinary people prefer singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use on Wikipedia. Quotations and titles of published works are notable exceptions.

Finally, please note that this talk page is not a forum. If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted or if there are other related issues, please note the issue at WT:LGBT or, in the case of living or recently deceased nonbinary people, report it to WP:BLPN.
