Before I end this off, I would like to urge anyone who plans on leaving their thoughts on this to remain civil, as the discussion got rather out of hand the last time, and this became rather counter-productive.

:I wasn't here two years ago, but it appears that over time the article has slowly been changed to refer to her as female, with no opposition. Because no-one's so much as mentioned these changes until now, I really don't see exactly why you should do this over again; however, if you want my take, I think that given the evidence, if you asked Nintendo how to call her today, they'd tell you to call her female.

::Agreed, and the way it is now is fine, imo. Anyone trying to change it would be just aggravating an issue that Nintendo is trying really hard to get over, I think. As the MarioWiki page indicates, Birdo is generally thought to be female (at least a cis woman, if not going by the original and astoundingly transphobic depiction of a trans woman) and Nintendo of America is very consistent in treating her as such. That said, if I were in a more playful mood, I'd change her gender on her infobox from "unknown" to "complicated". ~ [[User:StrawberryChan|<span style="color: #e68;">'''StrawberryChan'''</span>]] ([[User talk:StrawberryChan|talk]]) 20:22, November 12, 2020 (EST) | |||
