Overall: 
There is some overly close paraphrasing of the NYTimes article that I think would benefit from tweaking. It's probably down to my own ignorance but in Alt 1 (which is my preferred) the term suppressive communities confused me and I wonder if oppressive is the better word here? Recently passed GA and nom within 5 days so passes newness requirements. Never been on the main page. Length is good. Once the paraphrasing is dealt with, and some clarification about the ALT 1 hook working, and it will be ready to promote. Looks good. Suggest Alt 1c. Seddon talk 23:50, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
- Seddon, I believe the WL on suppressive communities is supposed to provide clarification, but I do see problems. Proposal below. Fixed paraphrasing. MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 01:49, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- ALT1a: ... that coverage of LGBT topics on Wikipedia has helped people in areas that censor LGBT issues discover their identity?
- MyCatIsAChonk I feel that looses snappiness. What about:
- ALT1b: ... that coverage of LGBT topics on Wikipedia has helped people discover their identity?
- ALT1c retains censorship wikilink: ... that coverage of LGBT topics on Wikipedia has helped people discover their identity?
