==Welcome to the LGBTA Wiki== |
|||
The LGBTA+ Wiki is meant to be a resource for members of the LGBTA+ community, people who are questioning, or anyone who's curious. Particularly this wiki is meant to be a helpful resource to explain everything this is to know about identities that are often unknown, unheard of, or are hard to find information on. |
|||
==Where To Start== |
|||
[[LGBTA+|LGBTA]] stands for [[lesbian]], [[gay]], [[bisexual]], [[transgender]], and [[asexual]]/[[aromantic]]/[[agender]]. It's an adaptation of the initialism LGBT, which originated in the 1990s. It may be used to refer to anyone who is non-[[Straight|heterosexual]], non-[[heteromantic]], and/or non-[[cisgender]]. Some popular variants include LGBTQ, LGBTIA, LGBTQA, and LGBTIAQ. The Q stands for [[questioning]]/[[queer]], and the I stands for [[intersex]]. Others include LGBT+ or LGBTA+, which is used to encompass the full spectrums of sexuality and gender. |
|||
If you are questioning you can browse our [[:Category:Sexuality|sexuality]], [[:Category:Ace-spec identity|ace-spec]], [[:Category:Aro-spec identity|aro-spec]], [[:Category:Gender|gender]], or [[:Category:Xenogender|xenogender]] categories. If you are specifically questioning your orientation you can check out the three part orientation resources here: ([[User blog:Chaoticcylinder/"I'm Questioning My Sexuality, Is There A Term For..." (Part 1)|part 1]], [[User blog:Chaoticcylinder/"I'm Questioning My Sexuality, Is There A Term For..." (Part 2)|part 2]], [[User blog:Chaoticcylinder/"I'm Questioning My Sexuality, Is There A Term For..." (Part 3)|part 3]]). |
|||
If you're new here it can also be helpful to check out the [[LGBTA Wiki:FAQ|FAQ]]. |

==Helping Out== |
|||
You can help out by creating an article for an identity that doesn't have a page. Before you make a new article it's recommended that you read the [[LGBTA Wiki:Style Guide|style guide]] and the [[LGBTA Wiki:New Page Guidelines|new page guidelines]]. and be sure to follow the [[LGBTA Wiki:Community Guidelines|community guidelines]]. |
|||
*You ''don't ''have to ask to make an article. |
|||
*You ''don't ''have to personally identify as something to make an article about it (as long as you know enough to give an accurate description). |
|||
If you want to help out but don't know where to start you can also help by adding relevant information to one of our [[:Category:Article stubs|stub articles]]. Information like who coined the term, when it was coined, who created the flag and when, as well as more information about the identity itself is always appreciated. |
