==Thanks for making this==
{{u|WhisperToMe}} Thanks for putting this together. I have tried to connect with many of the LGBT organizations in the city by having conversations face to face with the most achivist-minded person I could find there. Perhaps I have had 30 minute conversations with 10 organizations. I have been unable to find a point of contact with anyone who would bite to do more. Here in NYC we have a Wikipedia community which meets at least monthly, [[WP:Meetup/NYC]], but none of us really have capacity to make a partnership happen for any organization that is not ready to give something back. They all would love to have us volunteer to use their material, but none want to talk about free licensing. I really regret how many photos and documents are going to be lost even thought many are collected and there are oral history recordings. This article is a great start for collecting what exists.

: {{ping|Bluerasberry}} - You're welcome! I'm hoping that this page will not only increase the understanding of the NYC LGBT community but also lead to possible considerations of re-licensing for free use.

===Content from other articles===
{{u|Castncoot}} imported some content. Here is one edit
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=LGBTQ_culture_in_New_York_City&type=revision&diff=739329799&oldid=739328757 import of content] from [[LGBT Pride March (New York City)]]
Other content for which I do not see attribution includes parts of the police raid of the Stonewall Riots and sections on Greenwich Village.

Wikipedia prefers to prevent [[WP:Forks]] of content. Castncoot, can you say something about how you decided how much content to copy here? My preference would be to keep summaries of events short and send people to main articles for more details. Subsections which link to main articles sometimes copy the lead of the linked articles, or even just a few sentences of the lead. Right now there is more content here.

I am not criticizing this because I see the article still developing, but I would like to prevent having too much of the same content in multiple places as the article develops. Also, any content copied from else should ideally have clear attribution as happened in the example above. Some of the other text in this article might not have that right now.

[[:LGBT culture in New York City]] → {{no redirect|LGBTQ culture in New York City}} – The ''Q'' is described within the article (was, before it kept getting deleted) and in the official City government source.[http://www.bmcc.cuny.edu/lgbtq/LGBTDirectoryofservices.pdf] This isn't meant to redefine the terminology used in any of the other LGBT-themed articles, just to be consistent with the terminology often used in New York City, as the article deals with a very specifically local issue. The Q is strictly meant to be additive and inclusive, not restrictive or compulsive. [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 20:02, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

:Evidently, LGBT is the appropriate name as per COMMONNAME and the sources. [[User:Stickee|Stickee]] <small>[[User talk:Stickee|(talk)]]</small> 04:24, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
::I think you're missing the point here, Stickee. I don't think anybody disputes that ''LGBT'' is the more highly used term. In response to your many examples here, I found this example of ''LGBTQ'' being quoted in a self-identifying manner (in the abhorrent and still-developing story in Chelsea): [http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/breakingnews/nypd-vetting-tumblr-claiming-to-be-chelsea-bomber-manifesto/ar-BBwjE12?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=iehp]. The matter is not which term is the majority (a common theme that resonates with the LGBT(Q) community), but the legitimate citability and includability of the "Q" as a commonly used term. To ''not'' include the Q would actually be remiss. Again, we need to be focusing on inclusiveness ("A and/or B") here, not restrictiveness ("A intersection B"). [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 19:47, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' the current reasons given. Articles are named per the common name of a subject among sources. Official titles do not matter. Is there a large amount of reliable sources that refer specifically to New York's "LGBTQ" culture? ~[[User:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#005080">Mable</span>]] ([[User talk:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#700090">chat</span>]]) 19:53, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
::Undoubtedly, yes. I only wish I had time to research them now! :) Perhaps [[User:Stickee|Stickee]] should do that to give fair due diligence to both terms. [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 20:07, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
:::There should still be plenty of time before this gets closed. Maybe you'll be able to search for them later this week. I'll Google a bit as well, though it's hard to get a good grasp of sources when you're dealing with a subject like this (for me, anyway). ~[[User:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#005080">Mable</span>]] ([[User talk:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#700090">chat</span>]]) 20:11, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
:::As I thought, there are a lot of sources referring to LGBTQ culture rather than LGBT culture: [https://www.google.com/search?biw=1536&bih=731&tbm=nws&q=LGBTQ+culture+in+New+York+City&nfpr=1&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiGhL2A3ZnPAhWK2hoKHVdCCn8QvgUIHSgB&dpr=1.25]. I have absolutely ''no'' idea how to find out which is more common, though. I do know Google doesn't seem to like the "LGBTQ" initialism. Kept trying to change it to LGBT... ~[[User:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#005080">Mable</span>]] ([[User talk:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#700090">chat</span>]]) 20:14, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
::::But since there are a reasonable number of LGBTQ entries (thank you for doing that quick search), the ''Q'' should be given the benefit of the doubt. This is not a popularity contest. We already know LGBT will be found to be more common, even in NYC. It's simply a matter of legitimacy and reliability, and keeping in mind that the Q is additive, not restrictive or compulsive. [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 20:26, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
:::::To me personally, adding the Q would be more restrictive, for the reasons I have outlined on the WikiProject talk page. The Q also isn't commonly accepted even among LGBT activism websites like GLAAD. "All else being equal," I think it would actually be preferred to keep the Q out. Why wouldn't we use LGBTI instead? Plenty of sources for that too: [https://www.google.com/search?q=LGBTI+culture+in+New+York&nfpr=1&biw=1536&bih=731&source=lnms&tbm=nws&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiA57-Z4JnPAhWHvRoKHXPrBMoQ_AUICSgC] ~[[User:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#005080">Mable</span>]] ([[User talk:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#700090">chat</span>]]) 20:27, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
::::::Because "LGBTI" is not quoted or cited in ''this article'', unlike "LGBTQ", which ''is'' quoted (officially by the City of New York, no less!!) and also cited twice. If it were, then yes, we should. As tempting as it may be to focus attention away from this article, one should avoid that temptation. [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 20:56, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
:::::::By the way, the "L" and the "T" aren't restrictive, are they? No, they are additive. Similarly, if the "Q" is excluded from the way that people self-identify as mentioned and cited in ''this article'', does that mean that in order to be included, they will need a completely separate "Queers in New York City" article created for them?  What GLAAD approves of is irrelevant here, for the purposes of this article. [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 21:23, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' I am not sure. I know that many people complain about all options, including LGBT, LGBTQ, and every other proposed choice. At [[:meta:Wikimedia LGBT]] the discussions among LGBT Wikimedia contributors in all countries have led to a conclusion of using a new acronym, not used by anyone else, which is LGBT+. Personally, I like LGBT+ because I think it builds off the precedent of LGBT and it includes everyone. The letters never end. A problem with Q is that many Americans born before about 1975 still perceive it to be an insult because "queer" was not a term that was claimed among many activists above that age. Wikipedia does a great job at sorting manuals of style and I think if there really is internationally interest in using a better term, then Wikipedia would surface that. I would favor making collecting evidence and compiling it into a manual of style somewhere on English Wikipedia so that other media outlets can copy whatever best practice is identified. I am confident that LGBT is the historically favored term but it could have happened that another term is being quickly adopted, but I would want to see a certain amount of evidence. I think this is a serious decision because NYC is the single most influential media center in the world and NYC has been disproportionately influential on the history of LGBT rights as compared to everywhere else. This article has to be correct as a model for others. I would change if someone actually compiled a viable argument to change but I do see "LGBT" as the conservative default choice.

::I would support LGBT+. I agree with your reasoning, that it leaves all options open. [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 00:58, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
*'''Oppose move...?''' The onus is on the nominator to show "LGBTQ" is the common term, and I don't see any proof of that here.

==Can this RM discussion be modified to LGBT+ culture in New York City?==
Doesn't sound like LGBTQ has people's support for the title. I do like [[User:Bluerasberry]]'s suggestion of "LGBT+", however. What do people think? Sounds like the international Wikipedia community has decided favorably upon the "LGBT+" acronym. [[User:Castncoot|Castncoot]] ([[User talk:Castncoot|talk]]) 04:31, 24 September 2016 (UTC)

::The article currently doesn't (explicitly) seem to cover [[asexuals]], [[genderqueer]] people, or [[intersex]] people. No mention of any sexual or gender identities outside of LGBT. Why should this article specifically be moved to a different title? I mean, I think the article ''should'' cover these topics, and on Wikipedia's back-end, "LGBT" is basically considered an umbrella term as well. I'd rather see [[WP:WikiProject LGBT]] to be renamed in this manner than a specific article that has little to do with the + in the first place. Never been very fond of that + myself. It comes across as very [[othering]]... ~[[User:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#005080">Mable</span>]] ([[User talk:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#700090">chat</span>]]) 11:51, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
*So far as I know, the idea of "LGBT+" has only appeared in the Wikimedia community and no one anywhere else has used it. [[User:Bluerasberry|<span style="background:#cedff2;color:#11e">''' Blue Rasberry '''</span>]][[User talk:Bluerasberry|<span style="background:#cedff2;color:#11e">(talk)</span>]] 12:36, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
*I'll note, for the record, that Wikipedia only uses "LGBT+" in internal project contexts, such as {{cl|LGBT+ Wikipedians}} — and even then, we use it ''only'' because Wikipedia would never get anything else done at all if we had to continually battle over whether it should be at "LGBT", "GLBT", "LGBTQ", "GLBTQ", "LGBTI", "LGBTQI", "LGBTTQQIAAP", "LGBTTQQFAGPBDSM", or any of the infinite number of new variants. But in ''mainspace'' articles and categories, "+" isn't viable because it's not widely ''used'' out there in the real world; it was just ''our'' own internal solution for ''one'' project category, not a viable way forward for ''content'' disputes in ''mainspace''. For the purposes of that internal ''project'' category, we had to figure out some kind of ''compromise'' between common terminology and inclusiveness, so that we didn't get drawn into a constant series of pointless debates about something that has nothing to do with actually building an encyclopedia — but in ''end-user content'' in ''mainspace'', we absolutely can't create our own neologisms that way. The naming of our communities is obviously a thorny issue, but it always has been — I'm old enough to remember when even adding B and T was controversial, and while it's technically before my time there was once a time when even the ''L'' was controversial on the grounds that lesbians were already covered by "gay" and thus we didn't need to say both. I really do wish there were one generally accepted "umbrella term" that covered everybody, without having to get into these unwinnable debates about how many letters should or shouldn't be in the acronym, but unfortunately there's not. At the same time, however, the idea that New York City needs a ''special'' dispensation to use a ''different'' version of the acronym than we're using anywhere else isn't all that convincing either — there's no special NYC-specific context that ''mandates'' the inclusion of ''more'' letters than we use in San Francisco or Toronto or London or Berlin. The rationale for use or non-use of the Qs and Is and Ps and 2s and Fs and Hs is the ''same'' in NYC as it is anywhere else. I don't know how to resolve this, but neither does anybody else (which is precisely ''why'' there are so many different variants out there), but the answer definitely isn't "New York City gets its own special version of the acronym for itself alone, different from the one we use anywhere else."

:We’re not going to get anywhere here. Let’s invite the other top editors of this article to comment if they so choose. [[User:WhisperToMe]], [[User:Figurefour44]], [[User:Collier09]], and [[User:Chrish65]]: may I request if you folks wouldn’t mind looking at the most recent edit summaries and we can try to achieve consensus on material that would improve the notability of the article by inclusion? The Dyke March is real and significant, as is the BDSM street fair, as different and diverse notable facets of New York’s LGBT culture. The burden is notability sourced reliably, of course.

:: {{replyto|BlueboyLINY}} {{replyto|Castncoot}} [https://www.vogue.com/article/nyc-dyke-march-black-liberation-juneteenth Vogue Magazine states that] it was started in 1993, and [https://www.vogue.com/slideshow/new-york-city-dyke-march-2022-photos in this article] states that "The Dyke March has long functioned as a mobile site of resistance for those aligned with the fight for LGBTQ+ rights". ''[[New_York_(magazine)#The_Cut|The Cut]]'' [https://www.thecut.com/2022/06/dyke-march-30th-anniversary-nyc-photos.html has a lengthy article here]. I think the article should mention the Dyke March. [[User:WhisperToMe|WhisperToMe]] ([[User talk:WhisperToMe|talk]]) 19:08, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
