Just a reminder, we have a conversation started here about it:<br><br><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Feminism#Gender_neutrality_template">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Feminism#Gender_neutrality_template</a><br>
<br>I also brought up the use of some templates used for gender studies. If we can start contributing to the wiki about this, that'd be wonderful!<br><br>Thanks everyone for your input and Jayen466 for taking the initiative,<br>

I was going suggest the Globalize template as well; it's a good model<br>
of encouraging broader diversity (The examples and perspective in this<br>

boilerplate harsher tone of the stand NPOV template.<br>
<br>
