Transwikify to wiktionary

[edit]

This article is never going to be more than a definition, since if it gets any bigger, it will immediately become a merge candidate for Trans woman. If it doesn't get bigger, it will always just be a definition, but since Wikipedia is not a dictionary, this type of article does not belong.

Conclusion: we should transwikify this and merge to Wiktionary:transfeminine. Mathglot (talk) 03:44, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Mathglot and Crossroads: To continue a discussion we were having on Wiktionary: at this point, I don't think there's anything vital in this article that would need to be transwiki-ed over, especially if this article is not entirely deleted/made inaccessible, but instead merely hidden in the edit history underneath a redirect (so that the content is still citable and accessible for attribution/licensing, etc), like Transmasculine. It seems like there may not be enough sources which primarily/in-depth focus on the topic, for it to merit its own encyclopedia article at this time, so I would suggest reducing it to a redirect to Non-binary gender and summarizing it in a sentence in that article and in the Trans woman article: how about a sentence along the lines of "Individuals who were assigned male at birth but align more closely with the feminine side of the gender spectrum, but who are not women, are referred to as transfeminine." (Or, if sources would support a slightly different wording, then "...are not necessarily women" or "...are not necessarily or exclusively women", or whatever.) And of course, that could be followed by a period or semicolon and then a similar mention of "transmasculine". (I am inclined to think Non-binary gender may be a better redirect target for Transmasculine, too, btw... but in any event they should surely either both point to "Non-binary gender" or both point to their corresponding "Trans ___" articles.) -sche (talk) 18:11, 12 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
