While someMukhannath may fall under the trans umbrella, the term is distinct and is much closer to genderqueer than transgender (seegenderqueer). I'd support removing Mukhannath from this template on that basis. Feel free to ping me for any thoughts.Eelipe (talk)05:16, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Eelipe: Mukhannath appears as a sub-item ofThird gender; none of those sub-items neatly map onto the concept of "transgender", but are consistent with the broader definition of "transgender" used by many academic sources (see explanation atTransgender). That said, I wouldn't be opposed to changing the navbox' heading to something like "Transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming topics". --Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]}(they|xe|🤷)05:20, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I see, that makes sense now. I'll change the title then for clarity.Eelipe (talk)05:23, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I just removed three articles from the "Society and Culture" section of this template: A song (Germ), an ideological group (Zizians), and a stuffed toy (Blåhaj). These all seem inappropriate for inclusion in this template, but posting here for discussion if anyone wants to argue otherwise.
