"this category should not be nominated for deletion by itself. It will be seen as an attack on the part of the community" - To me this doesn't seem very civil and pre-assumes bad faith. Apart from anything else it encourages people to respond to a deletion discussion as if it was an attack, which surely is the worst possible way to go about things.

Also, you could put one on the contentious ones if you want - there are some, but not all, that warrant the prompt. I wouldn't just copy it over to all of them, and the reason I haven't done more than this one is that I just... haven't. This is the one I was involved in. Avruch T 01:44, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm not sure why Wikipedians with queer-related user boxes are automatically categorised as 'LGBT Wikipedians', for as the article Queer says, '[i]n addition to referring to LGBT-identifying people, it can also encompass: pansexual, pomosexual, intersexual, genderqueer, asexual and autosexual people, and even gender normative heterosexuals whose sexual orientations or activities place them outside the heterosexual-defined mainstream, e.g., BDSM practitioners, or polyamorous persons'. I think some people with queer-related user boxes don't always identify themselves as LGBT Wikipedians, as I don't. How about stopping this automatic categorisation? さえぼー ( talk) 14:09, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
Can I suggest that someone consider writing an article about author Lucian Childs, who wrote Dreaming Home, a novel about a gay man coming of age. The book has attracted a fair bit of attention. I am a friend of Lucian's so I cannot write the article myself. 206.174.18.75 ( talk) 23:52, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
