Talk:List of animated series with LGBT characters: 2015–2019

Untitled

Comments are welcome, as this may still be too big of a page, although I think dividing it into a sub-page is justified. This suggestion came from John_B123, just as I said on the talk page of List of animated series with LGBT characters: 2010-14 page.--Historyday01 (talk) 00:47, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Skout

Can someone add Skout from Nomad of Nowhere? —ÐW (talk/contribs) 23:39, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

@ÐW, she already has an entry, but I appreciate your concern. --Historyday01 (talk) 02:02, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

Confirmation and the use of secondary sources

I'm posting this to head off any criticism of this article that secondary sources are used to prove the LGBTQ identities of the characters listed on this page. This is similar to what I posted on the List of animated series with LGBTQ characters: 2010–2014 talk page, but I am posting it here as well. According to WP:YTCOPYRIGHT, specifically the original research section,

All material in Wikipedia articles must be attributable to a reliable published source. This means a reliable published source must exist for it, whether or not it is cited in the article. Sources must support the material clearly and directly: drawing inferences from multiple sources to advance a novel position is prohibited by the NOR policy. Base articles largely on reliable secondary sources. While primary sources are appropriate in some cases, relying on them can be problematic. For more information, see the Primary, secondary, and tertiary sources section of the NOR policy, and the Misuse of primary sources section of the BLP policy.

Furthermore, on WP:NOR, it says:

Wikipedia articles should be based on reliable, published secondary sources and, to a lesser extent, on tertiary sources and primary sources. Secondary or tertiary sources are needed to establish the topic's notability and to avoid novel interpretations of primary sources. All analyses and interpretive or synthetic claims about primary sources must be referenced to a secondary or tertiary source, and must not be an original analysis of the primary-source material by Wikipedia editors.

As such, citing sources like Animation Magazine, Digital Spy, Comic Book Resources, Den of Geek, Anime News Network, School Library Journal, The Guardian,, ScreenRant, comiccon.com, Animation Magazine, VRV, T.H.E.M. Anime Reviews, pride.com, AP, Gizmodo, GLAAD reports, and many others cited on the main page, are totally acceptable. When it comes to anime, official sites often are limited in the characters they talk about (usually only the protagonists, not the secondary characters for the most part) or give the characters biographies by putting text within images, making translation of the text impossible unless you are fluent in Japanese. This also means that primary sources are NOT necessarily needed to show the LGBTQ identity of any of the characters listed on this page. Such sources are nice, like in the case of Hazbin Hotel, DC Super Hero Girls, Twelve Forever, The Dragon Prince, Craig of the Creek, Transformers: Cyberverse, Star Wars: Resistance, She-Ra, Wataten!: An Angel Flew Down to Me, Super Drags, Nomad of Nowhere, Citrus, Castlevania, OK K.O., Mysticons, Made in Abyss, Yuri on Ice, Valkyrie Drive, and some others, but they are not always available, especially if the show is an anime or is relatively obscure, and are also not necessary!

I just thought I'd point this out before some editor comes along and tries to remove content here. Historyday01 (talk) 14:58, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

List of animated series with LGBTQ characters: 2015–2019 → List of animated series with LGBT characters: 2015–2019 – In line with existing consensus to use LGBT, rather than LGBTQ and because I cannot move the page manually to the other page name, like the List of animated series with LGBTQ characters, Animated series with LGBTQ characters: 1990s, Animated series with LGBTQ characters: 2000s, Animated series with LGBT characters: 2010s, Animated series with LGBTQ characters: 2020s, and List of animated series with LGBTQ characters: 2010–2014 pages Historyday01 (talk) 16:04, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Big Mouth character Natalie is transgender, just like her voice actress, in season 4.

There's a transgender character from Big Mouth, named Natalie, she have an anxiety about her new life as a girl after transitioning. Cabutchikas (talk) 21:48, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

Right. I remember sticking her over on the List of fictional trans characters page because not watching the show, I wasn't sure if Natalie was a recurring character, which I'd define, from a reading of the recurring character page as appearing in at least three episodes. The fandom page for Natalie says she appeared in four episodes, so I'll move her entry in. --Historyday01 (talk) 23:06, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
