There seems to be some controversy about this. I can't find an answer, but I've found an article ( Lesbians, bisexuals, gay men and transgendered people) that cites two publications with differing beliefs:
* Not sure what this 'sic' is for.
Perhaps we should delete the statement until we can cite some evidence one way or another. Grant 22:29, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
HAHA! EVIDENCE HAS BEEN FOUND! http://www.rainbownetwork.com/Health/detail.asp?iData=22798&iCat=173&iChannel=16&nChannel=Health Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 16:42, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
The character name changed from George Sunday to George Monday when Dreyfus started playing the part. See IMDB for evidence.— Ashleyvh ( talk) 10:43, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
This whole section appears to be WP:UNDUE and unbalanced according to WP:BLP. I would’ve thought ChiveFungi and KalHolmann would be a bit more careful, considering they were both instrumental in other editors being recently sanctioned for POV pushing. 81.108.118.166 ( talk) 09:57, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
There has been reverting since early October regarding the petition, so I've added full protection, in the first instance for three days. Those wanting to include the information should gather up mainstream, independent, high-quality secondary sources (no primary sources, no highly partisan sources, no tabloid journalism) that discuss his signing the petition to establish whether WP:DUE is satisfied. If that secondary coverage exists, consensus should be sought here on talk, or on WP:BLPN, regarding how to summarize it. Many thanks, SarahSV (talk) 23:16, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
Dreyfus has frequently mentioned his sexuality on his Twitter account. Should probably be mentioned? Rqe1 ( talk) 16:57, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
There seems to be an edit war going regarding pronouns that violates NPOV. On 29th January 2021 the human formerly known as James Dreyfus stated categorically that that human "does not use pronouns". Now, that human may be an idiot that doesn't know what a pronoun is, but we must respect that human's choices. I therefore, in compliance with that human's choices, removed that human's pronouns and replaced them with neutral equivalents. It seems there are some users on Wikipedia that are determined to cause trouble and not respect that human's choices, and keep reverting the changes to re-enforce their own preference for that human's pronouns, in total violation of NPOV. Please stop this.
Lots of vandalism recently regarding his views on the aggressive trans issue… methinks time to permanently protect this article? 91.125.10.93 ( talk) 22:15, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
