[edit]

Guiding questions:

    • The introductory topic defines Non-binary gender which is the whole topic of the article.
  • Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections?
    • The lead contains a table of contents which links to different parts of the article instead of describing them.
  • Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article?
    • Added is a link to all the different gender identities. These are not mentioned in the article, though, because they link to their respective wiki pages. I do think this is a valuable contribution to the article.

Content

[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added relevant to the topic?
    • In the definitions and identity section, there is information added about a Jacob Tobia. As this isn't really expanded on in the article I feel like it is a little out of place.
  • Is the content added up-to-date?
    • Yes the added content is up to date.
  • Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?
    • There is a section added in the pronoun area mentioning 2016 pronoun pins. That should either be elaborated on or removed.
    • I also think that a few of the sections are very small. There are who sections set aside for single definitions. I think they should either be expanded on or included into other sections.
