Talk:Queer representation in Doctor Who: Difference between revisions

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Not my place to talk if it should be queer or LGBTQ+, so I won't chime in on this part. Just wondering if we could make it "in Doctor Who related media" as opposed to just "in Doctor Who", since we cover all of the spinoffs too as I mentioned above.

: Good point, though it should either be "in ''Doctor Who'' and related media", or else "in ''Doctor Who''-related media" with the hyphen. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 21:57, June 12, 2020 (UTC)

:: Voicing my support for ''LGBTQ+ representation in Doctor Who and related media''. Though the examples of Queer in past usage are valid and I wouldn't personally take offence if kept as Queer representation, I would say that outside of an academic landscape... LGBTQ+ does tend to be the more frequently used term when its comes to referring as a community/umbrella-ing term. Queer has tended to be more of a personal term of identification. (though not always, as ''Queers dig Time Lords'' shows). Either way, we land on whether to keep Queer or change LGBTQ+, we definitely need to amend ''in Doctor Who'' to ''in Doctor Who and related media'', as we now have notable examples of representation from ''Class'', ''Torchwood'', ''The Diary of River Song'' and in some manner, solidified what was planned to be an instance within ''Sarah Jane Adventures''.
