Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
I'm not sure I'd concretely agree with every edit (in fact they used one term completely wrongly), but if nothing else it seems to have been done in good faith.

Most of it is okay. I am concerned about why they changed "asexual" to "gay" for no apparent reason.

To be honest, I find the part of the edit reason constantine linked rude, especially because it didn't seem like anything that they deleted or changed in that category.
I'm also automatically suspicious of someone that has only three edits to their name, spaced two years apart, and this is what they come back to do.
^^ I missed that. It is a little worrying (considering there's a lot of people within the community who actively try to push out and erase asexuals, treat equal rights like pie, etc), but could have been a simple mistake.

It seems fine to me for the most part, as it seems to be debunking legit misconceptions / speculation and making things easier to read. I agree the removal of the "asexual" bit is a bit weird, though. I also think we need to hit a balance of correctly representing trans people while still writing this article for cis people to learn what the trans experience is like, as the point of Useful Notes is to guide people on subjects about which they presumably don't know.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.
So flblbl has just made a very big edit to the Transgender Useful Notes page here
. I wanted to ask if other Tropers could review it and see if it's all good—I know this topic has been under a lot of discussion on the wiki as of late.
I'm also a bit wary because the edit reason contains "did delete a bunch of stuff that was just weird cis scientific voyeurist crackpot theories and self-congratulatory pats in the back"
But anyways, I'm a cis person who isn't well versed in this subject AT ALL so I'd appreciate some others' input.
