Hello, Verdearboles, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Brianda and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Disability and LGBTQ(+) Identities

Hi there, thank you for your interest in improving the article on disability and LGBTQ+ individuals. I did notice you moved the page to the LGBTQ+ usage without discussion. Although I recognize this was in desire of being more inclusive, I have asked the move to be reverted, so the page aligns with the parent page LGBTQ. We actually moved LGBT to LGBTQ earlier this year, following a prolonged discussion - you can see Talk:LGBTQ if you're curious - as we decided LGBTQ was more commonly used than LGBT or other variants, such as LGBTQ+. If the article is moved back to its former name, I just wanted you to know it wasn't out of malice or exclusivity (I'm part of the + myself), but for the purposes of consistency. :)

I hope you will continue to work on this page (it really still could use a lot of fleshing out, especially for non-American/non-English-speaking locales) and other related pages! If you haven't already, you could check out/join WikiProject LGBTQ+ studies (yes, the WikiProject has a different name than the main LGBTQ article, you can see here for that discussion lol). It's a great forum to get help/opinions from other editors interested in LGBTQ+ topics :) ForsythiaJo (talk) 17:18, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
