User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Panopticon/@comment-44988386-20200416234118/@comment-5918438-20200417004759 As for gender, I really don't know. We do have three properly confirmed trans characters (even if one of them is the worst possible representation), so a category is possible. But I'd recommend "trans humans" over trans individuals, just to make sure we don't start applying it to non-human characters who come from species (or cultures) that don't have gender, or don't have binary gender, or that don't assign gender... or whose genders are prone to changing along with much of their identities on a regular basis, as with Time Lords.

I do privately collect a list of characters that are anything other than cis and/or other than strictly binary, but I can't see a way of making that work as a policy-approved category. Some things are better covered in an article, and Gender is an article that can go into these in-story nuances (and in the BTS, even well-sourced OOU considerations) without these problems.
