  • Comment: ck for merge with conversion therapy DGG ( talk ) 19:32, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Comment: Whatever man, go ahead and delete it. I'm not that invested in the topic and was collecting feedback more than anything. Bkissin (talk) 20:42, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Comment: Crossroads, I'd say probably the two NPR sources (refs 8 and 17) and the Queerty article (14) are the closest to WP:SIGCOV for the subject of the article. Definitely understand your point regarding "rewarding undisclosed COI", but I wouldn't want to lose someone who might meet GNG in the process. Bkissin (talk) 20:18, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Comment: I submitted this article without realizing that the original editor has since been blocked for WP:PROMO violations. The article as it currently stands (what little of it there is) seems like it meets WP:NPOV and WP:RS, despite the WP:REFBOMB. Open to other thoughts before moving forward.

@Bkissin: What would you use to satisfy WP:THREE? It doesn't look like it meets WP:NBIO to me. And I think that undisclosed COI editing should not be rewarded by publishing their questionable article. Here is the ANI report I submitted that got them blocked. I left this draft alone figuring it would eventually be deleted as G13, and along the way would attract any socks if they popped up. Crossroads -talk- 20:09, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
Bkissin, I'm not seeing significant coverage of the person in those. These are media coverage of primary sources that would themselves never be covered on-wiki under WP:MEDRS. Most of the media sources are only briefly quoting the subject as an author (not even the lead author for the first one) of these studies. The WBUR interview is barely about the person, and is just a local affiliate of NPR. You say he "might" meet GNG – since you seem to imply it is borderline, then I say we should err on the side of caution and shouldn't reward COI editing. No prejudice against creation in the future should he become more notable. Not sure where to go from here. If this ends up back in mainspace, I'll have to subject it to wider scrutiny at AfD. Crossroads -talk- 20:36, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
I'm confused by the latest comment. It was you who moved it back to draftspace and wanted input. R2 is just to delete the resulting redirect, since redirects shouldn't go from article to draft space. Crossroads -talk- 20:45, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

Jack Turban is an American physician and writer who studies the mental health of transgender youth.[1][2] He attended Harvard College and then Yale School of Medicine and is a chief fellow in child and adolescent psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine.[3][4] He published studies to show that gender identity conversion therapies (attempts to make transgender people cisgender) are widespread in the US[5][6] and associated with suicide attempts.[7][8][9][10][11] He has also been one of the few researchers to publish on the topic of gender de-transition,[12][13], including in the academic literature[14][15][16]

He has been critical of the geosocial networking application Grindr, and argued in Vox that the app may have detrimental effects on the mental health of gay men.[17] He has complained that Grindr does not do enough to keep minors off of their platform, and that this may pose sexual risk to young people.[18] His opinion piece for The New York Times about minors on Grindr was one of several LGBT articles that were conspicuously censored with large white boxes in The New York Times print edition in Qatar.[19]

Turban has been criticized by conservative pundit Ben Shapiro as "embracing politically correct insanity as medicine."[20] The Daily Wire has accused him of misogyny for being in favor of transgender women competing in women's sports leagues.[21][22] Turban has been critical of Wall Street Journal writer Abigail Shrier's book Irreversible Damage, which claims that adolescents become transgender due to social contagion. He claimed that the book misinterpreted and omitted important scientific evidence about young people and gender identity.[23]
