A fact from Transgender archaeology appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 3 May 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that several ambiguously gendered figurines from pre-Columbian Ecuador can be analyzed through the lens of transgender archaeology?
Would it be worth adding a section for further reading? I was thinking of adding Weismantel (2013) as it appears in both the Oxford Bibliography for trans studies in anthropology (included in the external links section of the article) and for gender and archaeology.

I think that's a really good idea @Richard Nevell and would be beneficial for readers Lajmmoore (talk) 21:34, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Overall: @Lajmmoore. Well-written; facts are sound; sources don't raise red flags; no copyright violations; QPQ done. My only concern at the moment is with the way the hook is written. The hook is certainly interesting to me, albeit it is a little bit verbose. Perhaps something like... "... that several ambiguously gendered figurines from pre-Columbian Ecuador can be analyzed through the lens of transgender archaeology?" PSA 🏕️ (talk) 11:07, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
