Note that I am now posting “friends links” to bypass Medium’s paywall. I still encourage folks to become Medium members so that they can access everyone’s stories on that platform for one fee ($5/month). Using my referral link supports me as well.

Today’s post on Medium, “Ten years a Wikipedian“, discusses the experiences and frustrations I’ve had as an editor of that encyclopedia, particularly since my gender transition.
