Thank you Asaf for mentioning this! I personally appreciate (and know several others do as
well) the consideration and efforts Wikidata has been making to more accurately represent
communities which are sadly overlooked by so many projects and institutions outside
Wikimedia. I think it is one of Wikimedia’s greatest strengths. :)

Hi.
If your language has feminine and masculine forms for occupations, and your Wikipedia
embeds occupations from Wikidata and applies the female label in case of P21 equalling
'female', please make sure your code also uses the feminine form for P21 equalling
'transgender female'.
I just made this correction on the Hebrew Wikipedia, here:
