Revision as of 21:18, 6 August 2015
LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender/transsexual. Queer, pansexual, genderqueer, third-gender and more are included in the LGBT concept.
This category groups articles on people,
- who have come out to the general public as any of the categories above, or, for historical figures, who are recognised thus by consensus of scholars in reliable sources,
- and for whom, apart from the previous, LGBT is or was a significant part of their public life or notability.
Sexual or gender-related indetermination (e.g., asexuality, Klinefelter,...) is in itself not sufficient justification for inclusion in this category or its subcategories. Other subdivisions of Category:People by gender or Category:People by status might be more suitable in this case.
The content of each biography contained in this category or its subcategories should clarify how being LGBT is a significant part of the public life or notability of its subject, according to reliable published sources.
