New Article, give it a little love

[edit]

I just created this page since the author is in the news right now. I plan to build it out more in the coming days.—Zujine|talk 22:34, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography

[edit]

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates for books and articles, as well as tables for organising short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.

They/she

[edit]

There has been to-and-froing about pronouns. Her biog on both Bluesky and Twitter (as of 2024) includes "Non-binary. They/she" which I take to mean a preference for 'they'. Perhaps the link Singular they should be included for the first use? Nedrutland (talk) 11:44, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Nedrutland Ok as long as it's consistent. Half of this article uses "they", half "she", which is very confusing. 51.9.49.176 (talk) 12:08, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Now edited for consistent use of they/their. Nedrutland (talk) 12:18, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In August 2021 her Twitter biog included "She/They".[1] It is not clear when the preferred order changed. Nedrutland (talk) 08:30, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
