I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS REAL. Okay, I guess I can. Lets get to work?

Transgendered header

Resolved

I removed the quite large transgendered template menu because it gave the impression that buttock augmentation is primarily done by transexuals.

I may be wrong but I should think buttock augmentation analogous to breast augmentation. Some men may get it but that doesn't make it a mainly transgendered issue.Bantosh 20:05, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

• The presence of the transgender infobox does not indicate that it is mainly a transgendered issue, even if it is. It indicates that the issue is directly relevant to transgendered people and will hopefully encourage members of WikiProject LGBT studies to expand the article. Once the article is expanded to say start class, the infobox will not dominate the article. Having said that, the infobox in question will likely be converted into a full-width bottom of article style soon to reduce its intrusiveness into articles. --AliceJMarkham 22:08, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

by the above argument EVERY arti\cle should be lgbt tagged. this artivcle has NOTHING to do with transgendered issues. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.82.148.149 (talk) 10:19, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

• An interesting straw man argument, but no, there is no suggestion that all articles should be LGBT tagged. Only the relevant ones. This specific issue is especially relevant to transsexuals transitioning from male to female. While some will gain enough bulk around the hips and buttock as a result of fat redistribution caused by the influence of female hormones, Thailand now has a thriving plastic surgery industry catering largely to transsexuals and these augmentations are a large part of that. --AliceJMarkham 11:11, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

• Gay men also get butt lifts as a well-rounded backside is considered an...asset in the gay community. Benjiboi 14:48, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Hip and buttock padding

Resolved

How does that belong here? There may be a place for mentioning it in a sentence, but images are clearly unnecessary and should be removed. Ranch coacher 03:55, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

The overall effect is the same as surgical augmentation, so clothed images are directly representative of how surgical augmentation would look. If someone can provide before and after photos of a person who has had augmentation, they would obviously be preferable. --AliceJMarkham 06:20, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Restored external links

I removed a number of external links that don't meet WP:EL: one was an anonymous, keyword-stuffed, poorly written, unsourced Wordpress blog, another was an individual doctor's practice, and two others were physician referral sites with articles that may be have been reviewed by a member MD, but are overwhelmingly POV and promotional. Are there better reasons why they were restored? Flowanda | Talk 04:12, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I find them helpful and in context supporting what the article stated. I would support replacing them with better links but removing doesn't seem helpful for an article that needs a lot of work. Benjiboi 04:40, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Sources

I have now removed sources to non-notable websites that do not remotely meet WP:RS even for the niche subject they are covering. Please do not readd without discussing here first. This is a medical subject, not a travel destination. Flowanda | Talk 04:34, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I find your interpretation subjectively and unnecessarily narrow. Benjiboi 04:40, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

You mean my interpretation of WP:EL and WP:RS? Those are the only two guidelines I am using when considering these sources. By niche subjects, I meant areas where expertise may be regarded as non mainstream, like was discussed at Talk:List of free improvising musicians and groups.

Over use of One's

Ones article contains an an over use of ones "ones". One might wish to consider using ones other words besides one.200.41.2.144 (talk) 04:10, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

One has been busy tidying up the article and thinks that this one problem may now be fixed. :) --AliceJMarkham (talk) 05:55, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
