Leelah Alcorn

Please be aware of the notice on the Leelah Alcorn talk page that reads

Because this article contains material about one or more trans women, it should adhere to Misplaced Pages's guideline on gender identity, even if it is not a biography. According to MOS:IDENTITY, such a woman should be referred to using the gendered nouns and pronouns (e.g., "she", "her") that "reflect latest expressed gender self-identification." This applies in references to any phase of her life. Quotations and titles of published works may need to be handled as exceptions. Also please avoid phrases that seem logically impossible or distracting (e.g. use She became a parent for the first time, not She fathered her first child.) Finally, please note that this talk page is not a forum. If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the WT:LGBT, or, in the case of living trans women, to WP:BLPN.

There is strong consensus that the subject be referred to by her preferred name. Please feel free to start a discussion on the article talk page if you believe it should be otherwise.- MrX 16:01, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Death of Leelah Alcorn, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Misplaced Pages, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.Please review MOS:IDENTITY. T.C.Haliburton 16:03, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Death of Leelah Alcorn. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Misplaced Pages is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.
