Wikimedia Commons has media related to LGBT people.
This category groups articles on people:
who have come out to the general public as homosexual, bisexual, transgender/transsexual, queer, pansexual etc
for historical figures, who are recognised thus by consensus of scholars in reliable sources
Pages in this category should be moved to subcategories where applicable. This category may require frequent maintenance to avoid becoming too large. It should directly contain very few, if any, pages and should mainly contain subcategories.
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.
