Honorary MBE? Nationality?
editShe's in Category:Honorary Members of the Order of the British Empire, but AFAIK an "Honorary MBE" is someone who is not a citizen of UK or Commonwealth. But she's in Category: British Quakers, though the text of the article doesn't state nationality. Any sources? PamD 16:41, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
- Dimyon is described as British at https://www.gov.uk/government/world-location-news/budapest-pride-photo-exhibition-opening and described as a Quaker in her own article at http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/schoolgirl-abducted-raped-oxford-thoughts-teacher-victim-survivor-sexual-assault-a7352581.html. --Fæ (talk) 17:56, 11 June 2017 (UTC)
It seems that this article has recently been edited by its subject, with some ensuing violations of the policy on neutral points of view. The added content is not of encyclopedic quality, containing much that is confusingly and poorly written, and cites the subject's Twitter feed repeatedly as a reference, which I think does not meet the standard of our guidance on reliable sources. Moreover, the tone makes the article sound like a puff piece advocating the views of the subject, which I think amounts to unwarranted POV-pushing.
My initial suggestion would be to try to form a consensus to revert the page back to its state before these edits were made. What do others think? Archon 2488 (talk) 17:19, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
Banner
editThis:
Dimyon first created a purple banner proclaiming that “everyone knows a Black lesbian, Stormé, started Stonewall.”
is vague. Was she the first person to do so, then emulated by others? Did she first to that, then do something else? When and where did this happen? Why is the colour significant. Why is the banner significant? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 18:54, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- The reference is to Stormé DeLarverie and her involvement in the 1969 Stonewall riots. Cullen328 (talk) 01:05, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
