Anima mundi
Not related, unless the fiction concept was in some way inspired by the historical concept, of which connection I am unaware.

Theodor W. Adorno
Since no citation has been provided for this, I feel comfortable removing it. It is a highly incendiary claim to put in the lead, and if it is referring to Adorno's writings on jazz, it completely ignores that this is only a small fraction of his musicological writing.

Wikipedia:Writing about women
in composite forms featuring parentheses, it is the parenthesized segment whose removal or inclusion differentiates the composed items. “s(he)”, then, is nonsensical, it implies “either ‘s’ or ‘she’”.

Christina Sharpe
the citations say nothing about her being “most well-known” for her authorship of these books, or even about her being “known” at all; they simply say that she wrote them.

Detransition
Although this political situation may be familiar to those within trans politics, laypeople are not; hence it is important to specify a) the nature of the political threat activists perceive detransition to pose and b) the rationale behind those beliefs. This is a controversial yet important issue, and the cited texts unfortunately mostly don't go into enough detail to furnish the kinds of specific statements that are necessary when describing complex conflicts between opposing viewpoints.

Philosophical movement
Objectivism qua school of (ostensible) thought is incredibly insular, has nothing like a canon or milieu extending past one person and her sycophants, exerts virtually no influence in academic philosophical practice, and has nowhere near the quantity or quality of scholarship as the other movements listed here insofar as they are well-defined (“modernism”? what?). If it were to remain on this list, things like Integralism would have to be added alongside it.

Transmedicalism
the source, a blog post about youtube e-celeb drama, is far too tendentious and concerns far too obscure a subject matter to warrant the use of the passive voice, which suggests some sort of broad consensus or generally accepted sentiment.

Carbon accounting
As far as I know, Haraway has not written about carbon accounting, and if she has, it hasn't been cited. Nor can I find any reliable secondary source about 'using' her 'concept' in this context. So this would appear to be a pretty egregious case of WP:OR or WP:SYNTH from some over-eager STS student.
