<h2 id="mp-tfa-h2" class="mp-h2">What is LGBTdb?</h2>
<div id="mp-tfa"><p>LGBTdb is a database resource built using [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki MediaWiki], [https://wikiba.se/ Wikibase], the [https://query.wikidata.org/ Wikidata Query Service], and the [https://github.com/wikimedia/wikidata-query-gui Wikidata Query Service GUI], and is hosted thanks to [https://www.wikibase.cloud/ Wikibase Cloud]. It includes indices of computer- and human-readable LGBTQIA+ data, topics, and sources. The database maps together thousands of identifiers, attempting to sort out the mess of LGBTQIA+-related representation in standards, terminologies, glossaries, and much, much more. Before using, please keep in mind the [[Project:Data Policies|lgbtDB's policies]] and Wikibase Cloud's [https://www.wikibase.cloud/terms-of-use Terms of Use].</p>

<p>Please note: given the scope and content of lgbtDB, it may contain discussions of biphobia, homophobia, lesbophobia, transphobia, nonbinaryphobia, and intersexphobia. It may also contain discussion of slurs, hate crimes, or other events from an encyclopedic point of view. At the present time, I have not been able to code a content warning filter or pop-up in order to alert individuals before seeing such things and therefore I cannot guarantee that you will not see them when searching. If such a feature does become available I will update this section. That being said, if you do have the ability to code such a thing, please feel free to reach out, I'd really appreciate the help!</p>
<p>In order to keep lgbtDB up and running, you can support the creator's dreams of an open-LGBTQ+-data-world on [https://patreon.com/lgbtDB Patreon] or by buying her a coffee via Venmo @ChooChooTrans.</p></div>
