File:Color icon red.svg About WP:LGBTQ+
[edit source]Welcome to WikiProject LGBTQ+ studies! We're a group of editors who aim to improve Wikipedia's coverage of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) topics, including queer studies. WP:LGBTQ+ brings together Wikipedians of all sexual orientations, gender identities, geographic locations, and personal backgrounds to collaborate on expanding and improving LGBTQ+ content across Wikipedia.
The scope of WP:LGBTQ+ includes:
- Identifying and categorizing LGBTQ+ articles on Wikipedia
- Developing and applying standards for assessing LGBTQ+ articles
- Improving existing LGBTQ+ articles and ensuring they are in-line with Wikipedia's standards and policies
- Identifying notable LGBTQ+ topics not yet included in Wikipedia and creating articles for them
- Identifying and developing standardized tables, templates and categorization schemes for LGBTQ+ articles
- Identifying potential material that may be transwikied — (i.e. collect information for possible high-quality LGBTQ+ textbooks for Wikibooks)
- Maintaining Portal:LGBTQ
This project does not extol any point of view, political or otherwise, other than that of a neutral documentarian.
Joining the discussion at WT:LGBTQ+ is a great way to get started. Ask questions, suggest articles for creation or improvement, and connect with other WP:LGBTQ+ participants. Anyone with an interest in improving LGBTQ+ content on Wikipedia is free to participate.
For Discord users, the channel #wplgbt exists on the Wikipedia:Discord community server as a place to facilitate real-time discussion and conversation.
