Project name

It may sound like a dumb question, but have you ever considered shortening the project name? Wouldn't WikiProject Sex stand for both meanings, sexology and sexuality? —Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 07:26, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I respectfully disagree with your proposal. Sexuality is about human experience, expression, and behavior. Sexology is the academic and scientific study of that behavior. Sex, on the other hand, is about biology, including in animals. It is not about sexual behavior itself, but rather is a trait of an animal. It could create confusion over the purpose of this WikiProject. Talib1101 (talk) 02:39, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Advising the project of this AfD which may be of interest to members of the project. Thanks. --Historyday01 (talk) 14:30, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have nominated Nefarious: Merchant of Souls for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. GamerPro64 20:50, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Project scope

I've come across several historical biography articles of early feminists recently, and some of them were particularly known for activism in sexuality-related topics like free love or the abolition of prostitution. Should I be tagging them for this WikiProject? I'm not sure if this WP is more specifically about science/social science or if the scope is broader than that. -- asilvering (talk) 16:05, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Transgender and transsexual" renaming discussion

User script to detect unreliable sources

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like

  • John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)

and turns it into something like

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.
