LGBT and Wikipedia
Intersections of the LGBT community and Wikipedia / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are various intersections of the LGBT community[lower-alpha 1] and Wikipedia. LGBT people who edit the online encyclopedia often face cyberbullying and other types of harassment. Wikipedia content about LGBT individuals is often vandalized, but various Wikipedia user groups, WikiProjects, and the Wikimedia Foundation endorse campaigns to promote inclusion on Wikipedia. Availability of Wikipedia's LGBT content, in countries that otherwise suppress information about LGBT issues, has been praised.
