Murphy's years active info needs to be changed back to "1980–present", because he did nor retire from acting in 2012 and resume acting in 2015. He's has been active ever since 1980 and nothing in the article says that he retired in 2012. 2600:1000:B05F:9EA7:9CC2:F98E:675C:A50 (talk) 23:59, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please Change the word transsexual to transgender. Transsexual is outdated and used perjoratively. 71.34.18.104 (talk) 06:21, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Erledigt Lemonaka (talk) 08:38, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It should be noted that the primary use of transsexual is not pejorative, it's important to avoid those apocryphal narratives, but if the community prefers transgender then that is a good change to be made. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 09:15, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
