The contentious topics procedure applies to this page. This page is related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, which has been designated as a contentious topic.
This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more non-binary people. Precedence should be given to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, anywhere in article space, even when it doesn't match what's most common in reliable sources. Any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man/woman", "waiter/waitress", "chairman/chairwoman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification. Many, but not all, non-binary people go by singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use in articles. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Former, pre-transition names may only be included if the person was notable while using the name; outside of the main biographical article, such names should only appear once, in a footnote or parentheses.If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the LGBTQ+ WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard.
In the intro section the article states:"Morton uses the term to explain objects so massively distributed in time and space as to transcend localization, such as climate change and styrofoam." This remains cryptic or even non-sensical without further elucidation or changing of the sentence itself. Is Morton referring to climate change as a linguistic object? A real physical object? A concept of real phenomena? How does the styrofoam fit in? (I'm sure styrofoam can be found everywhere around the globe and maybe even in outer space, nowadays, thereby in a way 'transcending localization'...) Or is it that Morton regards climate change AND styrofoam as a single hyperobject emerging from interaction? Furthermore, how can the term 'explain' objects? This article was probably written by someone with a lot of passion for the topic and deep insights into the matter. This might bar one's view on what can be understood by others who are not as deeply involved. Korinthus (talk) 05:21, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
