My gut feeling has been that the topic is closely associated with religious practices, feudalism and personal metaphysical karma--222.64.18.207 (talk) 15:19, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty much by definition, links in "See Also" should lead to articles that can be read. Links to non-existent articles is pointless, so I've removed what you added. When those wiki articles are written, then you can readd the links. TechBear (talk) 14:49, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have managerial reasons to create those links and see the endnotes with my editing--222.64.18.207 (talk) 15:19, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The proper procedure is to register as an editor, create the links on your own page, use those red-links to write the articles, then link to the articles from elsewhere. Red links should be avoided in an active article, and should not be added at all to a "See Also" section. TechBear (talk) 16:30, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I also wanted to add that the Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and has policies of using verifiable, reliable sources, excluding original research and mimizing emphasis on fringe theories. Please keep these policies in mind when you edit the Wikipedia and write new articles. TechBear (talk) 16:37, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Status in France

This edit claims that transgender identity got removed from the list of mental disorder only recently. This contradicts Gender identity disorder#Controversy. The way I read it, Le Mondé just repeated some older news yesterday (compare [1] vs. [2]). However, I am not sure, could somebody who actually knows French help?--87.183.241.220 (talk) 13:21, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
