fall outside of a narrow interpretation of "LGBT". (Yes, I know that a lot of people interpret it with an implied Q+ but not everybody.) Of course, that leaves the question of exactly what to change it to. "LGBTQ+" seems perfectly reasonable to me but I'm sure that there would be a mix of both reasonable and less reasonable objections. --
769:
I think that the "Q" and the "+" serve a similar purpose. There some nuances, that we don't need to get into here, that lead people to include both in the acronym and that's perfectly reasonable too. "LGBT", "LGBTQ" and "LGBTQ+" are all widely used versions of the acronym while "LGBT+" is less so. I

contains a section that recognized LGBTQ (without the IA) as the more common inclusive variant as what LGBT stands for it a contentious itself - so if you change it to just LGBT, then you also have to bring in that part into the lead to clarify as some people do use it in an exclusionary way and the

But that is a major inconsistency. "LGBT" as a topic across the board is the current consensus (no consensus to move); it thus makes no sense to use further acronyms. Additionally, "LGBTQIA+" is not described by any (but a few) of the article's 92 sources. As LGBT is quite literally the topic of the

reverted my edits of removing "QIA+" from the "LGBTQIA+" term used in the lede. This was accused as disruptive editing. My reasoning is that, because this article is entitled simply "List of LGBT awareness periods", that the term "LGBT" should be used to reflect the topic, unless another variant is
738:
I am not sure whether that should be approached as a broad thing, covering all articles with "LGBT" in the title (except when it is part of a name for an organisation), or just this one. In this specific case I think the argument for a move is strengthened because the list includes many items which

of the other elements of the acronym and that is not a reason to omit any of them. I suggest that you need to acknowledge (to yourself, not to us) that any personal distaste is just that, personal, and try not to let that cloud your judgement when editing
Knowledge. Sure, that isn't always an easy

acronym, "LGBTQIA+". Now, while it's my personal opinion that the acronym is not a good one in general (that is the bias I admit to here; a distaste for long, gratuitous acronyms), it is not one reliably sourced such that "LGBTQIA+" should be used in the ledes of articles.
697:
At most, I would be open to the use of the term "LGBT+" as that mostly corresponds with the article's title, and isn't as arbitrary as "LGBTQ", "LGBTQIA" etc. The fact is that anything included beyond "LGBT" in the acronym is included in that plus sign.
793:
This is such an absurd set of accusations. You accuse me of having a distaste for the word "queer". Not at all; my above preference for LGBT+ was not in relation to how often it is used (LGBTQ+ is indeed more common), but in respect to how it covers
828:
Honestly, I know it is a BIG issue, but personally I would rather it was resolved to be the same on ALL LGBTQ pages rather than just on this one. I totally agree with you that it SHOULD be changed, but I don't want to only be on this page.

list here is very much not just LGBT periods, which as you scroll up in the talk page has in fact been fought multiple times where things like the
Asexuality day we’re gatekept because someone argued it wasn’t LGBT in the stricter sense.
591:
I think it should be in the list. It’s really important for those who are impacted by AIDS, and at points in history that has been massively skewed to the LGBT+ community. Lack of visibility and huge stigma remain an issue today in 2022.

would suggest that you reflect on why you have a problem with the longer versions of the acronym and seemingly with the "Q" specifically. I hesitate to bring up your behaviour on other articles but I think that the edit summary

From my quick search online now, there are more new sources using LGBTQ+ awareness periods than just LGBT, so in fact, we may want to change this to a page move discussion and change this here to list of LGBTQ+ awareness

article (from the title), and the most general term used by all sources, to use the term "LGBTQIA+" is both original research, and, as a variant of the term, arbitrary. Why not use LGBTQQIAAP or other variants?
588:
I can’t tell which way you think from your question, but I’m interested to hear others thoughts. I’m not sure if it was removed at some point. I came here as I was surprised not to find it on the list.
635:
The discussion on why articles across the board have not yet been renamed was recently had on the LGBT main talk space and it was close, but no full consensus, so it ended up being a stalemate.

The list is quite literally a list of recognized LGBTQIA+ events, so in this case I strongly feel it is inappropriate to have the lead say just LGBT.
