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 trans men. 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. Some 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.
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because LGBTQ people, particular transgender people of color are significantly underrepresented in the media and on Wikipedia. Tiq Milan's activism work, in line with other activists I have created Wikipedia pages for (Kara Tucina Olidge, Bali White, Wade Davis (American football) and Darnell L. Moore are significant activism in LGBTQ pop and subcultures. Their work is integral to LGBT history and activism. Please inform me of what I can do to ensure this Wikipedia article. I, as a woman Wikipedia editor (also underrepresented) would like to ensure there is more visibility to women, LGBTQ people and people of color. Thank you.

"A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." - I thought I had many secondary sources in his Wikipedia article, was there not enough? Srdemuro (talk) 03:45, 4 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
