Request for input on nomination for deletion of Template:Gender unclear

Hello, I would request input on the nomination of Template:Gender unclear for deletion. The reasons for deletion intersect with the goals of this WikiProject, with the template being claimed to embody a bias against people of certain genders. The corresponding discussion may thus be of interest to this task force.

Template:Gender unclear has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page. ExoticViolet (talk) 15:50, 19 May 2021 (UTC) ExoticViolet (talk) 15:53, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

It was deleted, after a few relistings. Emir of Misplaced Pages (talk) 20:57, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

BLPN thread

There is a BLPN thread concerning one of the women who has accused Donald Trump of rape, here. SPECIFICO talk 15:33, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

The controversy was about her not calling it rape, was it not? Emir of Misplaced Pages (talk) 20:59, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Liang Wenbo assault conviction

I have just had 2 edits on snooker player Liang Wenbo reverted / watered down. Wenbo was convicted of assault on a woman (BBC News article). I gave the information its own section and added a summary to the lead section.

The other editor (an admin) has changed it to a sub-section within "personal life" on the grounds that it is a "bit crazy for a full section" and removed it from the lead as "a bit heavy handed for a lede".

I know people are going to say discuss it / start a conversation on the talk page, but I really don't want to get into it, someone else will have to pick up the banner.

This evening (1 April 2022) ITV4's coverage of the Tour Championship 7.15pm, began with presenter Jill Douglas reading out of a statement by the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association which read. "We (the WPBSA) were not aware of this incident and are very disappointed to read of such matters.

While we read that Wenbo has already been sentenced for this offence, we will now consider the position from our sport's disciplinary perspective. Again, we are extremely disappointed to read this news today." (also reported on France24).

If anyone wants to take another run at it with the extra refs then please do. The Vintage Feminist (talk) 02:39, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

Update he has now been suspended from the snooker tour. The Vintage Feminist (talk) 15:31, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
