For the purpose of clear and coherent writing for us and reading for any user that decides to read the page, one gender needs to be picked. As a desire to stay canon, just because the character doesn't have a decided gender in the manga, will do the page more harm then good. Calling Hange her or transgendered is not wrong, as it's up to the reader to decide. So long as it's clear at the very beginning of the page, with the template it shouldn't be hard to miss. It should be clear to the reader that we've chosen a gender for purpose, and only this purpose, of making it easier to read and write. Nothing more, nothing less.
