::::::::::Apparently, the link to her blog has changed to http://web.mac.com/maddiejoan/iWeb/Site%202/Bio.html [[User:Captain Skank|Captain Skank]] 21:07, 27 December 2008 (UTC) | |||
== "The late" == | |||
Is it really necessary to post "the late" on all the pages of the characters she has voiced? We don't do that for any of the other VAs who have passed away ([[Tomiko Suzuki]], [[Hirotaka Suzuoki]]), so why should Maddie Blaustein be any different? --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] <sup>[[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]]</sup> 16:53, 18 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
: I agree. Adding "the late" is pretty sloppy, it is also entirely redundant since all one has to do is click on the name to learn that the actor is deceased. [[User:Trainer-c|Trainer-c]] 18:53, 18 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
== Removing the Deadname == | |||
As a trans person myself, I feel it is really disrespectful to continually use "Adam" in reference to her on many pages. I get that this site wants to be as accurate as possible, and having it mentioned once on her page (while acknowledging it is a previous name she no longer uses) is alright, but continually referring to her by that name on various pages is extremely disrespectful and distasteful. I think all pages of Season 1 characters that continue to feature this name should be changed to her preferred name [[User:Dccteog|Dccteog]] 12:00, 20 February 2022 (UTC) | |||
:The issue with that is, if people try to compare our site to one of those episodes, they won't see "Maddie Blaustein" anywhere. By ignoring what's in the episode, we'll just create confusion; one way or another, we have to acknowledge the name as the episode wrote it. I don't know if there's a good way to minimize it without still causing confusion... (Now, if it was a case like someone wasn't credited for a minor role and we actually know the VA from the person's direct acknowledgement or a reliable staff list or something, that'd be different.)
