*No pages for: alternate spellings/names for terms (aside from, potentially, redirects), individual pronoun sets (as opposed to pronoun-related terminology such as [[neopronouns]]), flags/alternate flags or symbols.

Pages may be created for [specific movie/TV show/character]gender or [specific song/album]gender. However, pages may not be created for genders connected to any specified real-life individual(s), including any genders related to:

*A band/singer/another type of artist.

Though one's gender can certainly be related to/influenced by real-life individuals, and one may only experience attracted to a specific individual/group of individuals, pages for these identities may not be created, as this would be inappropriate and disrespectful to said individual(s).

#Pages for counterparts to/variations of existing terms (eg: -romantic, -tertiary, -girl, -flux, demi- variations/counterparts) and pages for combination identities will be held to the same standards in terms of their history sections and resources as any other identity. Counterparts/variations and combination terms may not be coined via the creation of an article (as of November 10th 2021).

#Pages should not be created for counterparts to/variations of terms where the "original" term or it's counterpart/variation is exclusive to a group that the creator is not part of; pages should not be created for combination identities where one or more of the terms being combined are exclusive to a group that the creator is not part of.

#Pages for combinations of two terms may be created if significant or unique information is provided (i.e: the page cannot simply state that [combination term] is when one identifies with both [term 1] and [term 2]). Pages for three terms may be created if the three identities are thematically connected due to having the same prefix (eg: aroace agender).

#Credit must be provided wherever appropriate. All coiners involved in creating identities must be credited, including the coiner of the term that the variation/counterpart is based on or the coiner(s) of any identities that are being used to create a combination term. The coiner - if there is one - of the the variation/counterpart/combination term should also be credited.

#One must have created the term that the counterpart/variation is based on, or both/all three terms being combined, and/or have received explicit permission from the coiner(s) of any terms that one did not coin oneself to create a variation/counterpart/combination identity using said term(s) (proof of permission must be provided via screenshots uploaded to a gallery or an archived link provided as a resource).
