Well I definitely fear the complications that will certainly arise if the transgender name policy that has been put in place entails changing past credits themselves or not including redirects, in terms of being a website meant to present all factual information as it relates to the show and one that is easily and efficiently accessible by all people for finding that information without issue - especially if this was based on the idea that there is any “truth” to any name at all, which is irrelevant to fact-keeping and organization and is kind of mistaken, anyway, honestly... If that's not how the policy works, though, and old names are still used in the credits they appeared as such in and do redirect to the new names and such in a way that still keeps all the information right and findable, that's great; I was just having some confusion reading the policy, myself.

But as that is apparently not what we are discussing here, anyway, I’ll be off, as I can’t say I have many ideas how we can foster an even more diverse community; I think the Wiki is doing a pretty great job overall on that front right now, personally! Though I will say regarding the use of “queer,” that, in the interest of avoiding offending anyone unnecessarily, that would be best not to use, perhaps, since many still find offense in that term.
