According to the Twitter account @mooncalfe1, Ross Campbell is now Sophia Campbell. Per WP:BLPSELFPUB and MOS:IDENTITY, this page should refer to her as "Sophia" if and only if we believe that Campbell owns and is currently in control of @mooncalfe1. I personally have no knowledge of her or her work; @mooncalfe1 seems to be her, but I don't really know. Can anyone suggest a way of proving it? If not, we should really wait for RS confirmation per WP:DEADLINE. FourViolas (talk) 04:23, 7 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
That is her twitter account. She had recently changed her username, but her tumblr is at the same address it had been at before, and links to @mooncalfe1. Her tumblr also uses her new name as well, and her deviantart has a "coming out" post. So either it's true, or someone has taken control of her twitter, tumblr and deviantart. --FortMax (talk) 04:29, 7 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

The Wikipedia Manual of Style directs that a trans person who was notable before changing their name should have both names at the top of the lede, for identification purposes. The standard formulation is "Sophie Campbell (formerly Ross Campbell)". She was a published and credited comics creator – with an article about her on Wikipedia – while she was still known as "Ross". That was her public professional name, and there are people who will look for that person on Wikipedia without realizing that Sophie Campbell is the same person. For the sake of identification and avoiding reader confusion, her old name is needed in the lede. -Jason A. Quest (talk) 15:06, 16 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

"She primarily writes and draws characters who are adolescent or young adult women, including various races, body types, sexual orientations, and abilities." -- Is this not a weird thing to note about an artist up front? Admittedly it's not the norm, but is it really the most notable thing about any artist for them to depict a large swath of human experience? Is this something that comes up a lot in the sources, or is there meant to be some kind of subtext to the effect that the appearance of diversity in her work is ostentatious or excessive, to the exclusion of any other notable subject or quality? If anything I think it would be more appropriate to write in the articles of various hack comic artists that they primarily depict straight white men and women in their late 20s with athletic builds. 2601:449:4200:3840:E93B:9C6C:F5F0:6FF8 (talk) 12:47, 20 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
