But again, we still count genies as a separate species. We've seen people magically undergo a species change, and we've seen species that can appear human. The evidence is not enough to change how we've been listing it, IMO, and as long as we're listing fairies as a separate species, Rumple's page should be altered to accurately depict his species, which is not "human".

Mr. Gold is a different case, though. The Dark Curse turned all magical species into humans - such as Leroy and Blue. However, Blue has been shown to regain the attributes of a fairy in the most recent casting of the curse. Leroy, on the other hand, has not. (Their pages show this, with Blue being listed as "formerly" human, while Leroy is still human.) I'd say we should call Mr. Gold 100% human since he's shown no signs of being half-fairy, but neither has Rumplestiltskin, so there's no way to tell for sure without asking a writer.
