The contentious topics procedure applies to this page. This page is related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, which has been designated as a contentious topic.
This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more non-binary people. Precedence should be given to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, anywhere in article space, even when it doesn't match what's most common in reliable sources. Any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man/woman", "waiter/waitress", "chairman/chairwoman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification. Many, but not all, non-binary people go by singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use in articles. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Former, pre-transition names may only be included if the person was notable while using the name; outside of the main biographical article, such names should only appear once, in a footnote or parentheses.If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the LGBT WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard.
This article is written in American English, which has its own spelling conventions (color, defense, traveled) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.

... that Lil Uzi Vert(pictured) told the crowd at one of their concerts that they were all "going to hell"? Source: HotNewHipHop
ALT1: ... that Lil Uzi Vert(pictured) quit their job at a grocery store after just four days, which led their mother to kick them out? Source: HipHopDX
Overall: Recent GA article looks mostly well sourced and pretty balanced. The picture is free and in the article, it's clear enough imo at 120 px but it would be nice if there was something clearer available. I donated a QPQ. Both hooks are cited and interesting, although one about the diamond implant might do even better with viewers. One thing that jumped out at me is that the ref for the hook just describes it as a grocery store, but the Wikipedia article specifies that it was a Bottom Dollar store. Is there a source for it being Bottom Dollar?? BuySomeApples (talk) 07:21, 27 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the review and QPQ, BuySomeApples. I added a cite for Bottom Dollar to the article. Here's an alt hook and an alternate picture for the promotor's consideration.
ALT2: ... that Lil Uzi Vert(pictured) had a 10-carat pink diamond, reportedly worth $24 million, implanted in their forehead?

They (the rapper), a primary source, tweeted on 28 July 2021: "Wait wtf I’m turning 26??? My mom found my birth certificate" Then, in a HotNewHipHoparticle from the same day: "Lil Uzi Vert’s birthday has already been updated on Wikipedia, stating that he was born on July 31, 1995 instead of 1994." Looking at reliable third-party sources, most (also after July 2021?) say 1994, some 1995. Isn't it more accurate to write in our article that his birthyear is unclear? Or, "either 1994 or 1995"? With a footnote that explains the situation. --Talky Muser (talk) 15:30, 21 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Not done for now: The article mentions them discovering their birth year to be 1995 and not 1994. Do you have sources that could corroborate that the original year is correct? The age seems to come from their tweet, and I’m inclined to agree that it might not be reliable, but it has been re-reported in various sources, so it would help to have sourcing for changes to be made.

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Charliehdb (talk) 13:24, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
