The contentious topics procedure applies to this page.

This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more trans women. 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. Some 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 LGBTQ+ WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard. |

Parents birth country
editThe article said her parents were Dutch from their Netherlands. It’s a very common misconception that they are the same country. Whilst, the BBC article cited by the writer says they were Danish. Given her surname and the BBC saying she disguised it as a trip to visit family I believe she was Danish American. 2600:4040:AB3B:E000:2DBE:555F:AD71:875E (talk) 16:55, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

She also wrote a Scandinavian cookbook
, I don't see how it was that relevant to begin with. Seawolf35 T--C 23:34, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
what's with the deadnaming?
editIs an old assigned name that she changed to reflect who she really is really that important? CuteScribbles (talk) 03:22, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
Wrong date
editThe intro says drafted in 1944 but the body says 1945. One is wrong. 70.161.8.90 (talk) 13:52, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
