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.
