Well I definitely fear the complications that will certainly arise from what I understand of the transgender name policy that has been put in place, 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, particularly when it comes to past credits - and this policy seems to have perhaps been based to some degree 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...

But as that is apparently not what we are discussing here, 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.
