-I decided to copy this here, just in case you don't follow the OP wiki messages-

Hey, I may not be an admin on the One Piece wiki, or even a regular editor, but I wanted to talk about Fandom staff's overruling the Yamato discussion there. To put it simply, I know you people meant well by attempting to defuse the discussion, but in reality you've only fanned the flames even further. We had reached a consensus and, quite frankly, you people don't seem to know enough about One Piece to make such a decision. I don't mean this as an insult of any kind, just an observation.

Look, as I said on Yamato's talk page, I myself am a supporter of LGBT+ people in real life. But I genuinely don't think Yamato counts as LGBT+. She is as far as she is presented, not a "man in a woman's body". Yamato is a woman who pretends to be a man simply because she is imitating her hero figure, Kozuki Oden, who was a man. People have, correctly, compared Yamato to Mulan. Mulan pretended to be a man for her own reasons, but that does not mean she was trans.

And besides, we already have a trans character in One Piece, Kikunojo, and we treated her as correctly as we could. Kikunojo clearly stated that, while she is biologically male, she is "a woman at heart" and is referred to as such by everyone, even the narrator. That is not the case with Yamato. As I said before, the infobox in the story itself (and thus the narrator and writer) outright calls Yamato "Kaido's daughter". Which I highly doubt they would do if Yamato really is trans.
