But last week, without warning, there rose a strange

10、and sudden debate around a question about the famous cat that even creator Jim Davis needed to weigh in on: Is Garfield a boy， a girl, or no gender(性别 ) at all? The argument appears to have begun when writer Virgil Texas came across a 2014 Mental Floss interview with Davis where he described his tab

11、by creation Garfield as “not really male or female or any particular race or nationality, young or old.” In response to the quote(引用 )， Virgil wrote on Twitter: “FACT： Garfield has no gender.

12、 update the Garfield character Wikipedia page with the information。 But it was quickly clear that not everyone agreed with Virgils edits, and thus began a war over the Wikipedia entry edits. Some mentioned that Garfield is male. Others wrote that it shouldnt matter at all whether Garfield is male or

13、 female. Washington Post reported that the battle took place over 60 hours and eventually ended when Wikipedia shut things down by locking the page.
