Abigail Thorn

Hi SilenceIsAcceptance! I noticed your edit to Abigail Thorn and I've made a couple of adaptations to it, hopefully uncontroversial, in this edit. First, we don't need an extra citation for the first sentence of "Coming Out As Trans and Identity", as more than three citations clutters up the text a bit too much. Secondly, I've tried to summarise the key information in your description of the Hunte interview a bit more and write it in a more Wikipedia-like style (e.g. avoiding contractions).

The article on Thorn is already quite high-quality so you may find it difficult to make further improvements. I'm not sure how the structure of your course works, but if I can make a suggestion, the article on Kat Blaque is similar in many ways (trans woman YouTuber) and fits within your course's scope very well (a woman who makes videos with themes of gender and sexuality, as well as race). It may be a bit easier to improve, as it is shorter and less complete, and there are plenty of sources like this and this that would be very useful in expansion. — Bilorv (talk) 22:37, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
