#REDIRECT [[LGBTQIA+ Wiki]] |
|||
The LGBTQIA+ Wiki is a resource of LGBTQIA+ terminology and labels used by various queer communities, as well as the questioning and/or curious. The wiki is designed to be a helpful resource for explaining identities that are often unknown, unheard of, or difficult to find information for. |
|||
[[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-[[heteroromantic]], and/or non-[[cisgender]]. Some popular variants include LGBTQ, LGBTIA, LGBTQA, or LGBTIAQ. The Q stands for [[questioning]]/[[queer]], and the I stands for [[intersex]]. Other variations include LGBT+ or LGBTA+, which is used to encompass the full spectrums of sexuality and gender. |

== 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 [[LGBTQIA+ Wiki:Creating and Editing Pages|Creating and Editing]] guide. Whilst anyone can make changes or new pages, your edits may not be accepted. Main reasons are below: |
|||
* Improper formatting or grammar |
|||
* No resources backing up the provided information |
|||
If your edit was rejected and does not match the above, feel free to [[User talk:Jeb CC|ask a moderator]]. |
|||
If you want to help out but don't know where to start... |
|||
* Articles in [[:Category:Identities With unarchived resources|this category]] need their resources to be archived according to the [[Template:Archive|archival template]]. |
|||
* Articles in [[:Category:Pages Without Resources|this category]] do not have resources. If you find some, you are encouraged to add them! |
|||
* There's a large ongoing housekeeping project to review ALL wiki pages, more information on the Discord server. |
|||
