On 12 July 2021, it was proposed that this article be moved from LGBT social movements to LGBT movements. The result of the discussion was moved.

A clique of editors seem to be implementing a purge of any mentionings of notable LGBTQ Ukrainians and LGBTQ activism in Ukraine.

In particular, the corresponding section in the List of people from Ukraine listing notable LGBTQ Ukrainians and Ukrainian LGBTQ activists with Wikipedia pages, has been first censored and then completely purged by this clique of editors, under the obviously false pretext of such entries in the list being "unecyclopedic"(!).

Please review the following revision history, between July 27 and July 29, 2020 , https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=List_of_people_from_Ukraine&action=history .

The purged list of notable LGBTQ Ukrainians and Ukrainian LGBTQ activists is as follows:

LGBTQ Ukrainians, pro-European and pro-Western LGBTQ Ukrainian activists

• Bogdan Globa
• Mike Enzi – US Senator from Wyoming
• Maurice Hinchey – former New York Congressman (Ukrainian mother) ^[1]
• Volodymyr Horowitz
• Olha Kobylianska
• Alla Nazimiv - US Ukrainian actress, also known as an active member of the Hollywood LGBTQ community
• Anna Sharyhina - influential Ukrainian lesbian, LGBTQ leader
• Stav Strashko - distinguished Ukrainian Israeli transgender actress, passionate advocate of transgender lifestyle in Ukraine
• Edward Tarletski - Belarusian-Ukrainian LGBTQ activist

Please help to monitor and report the disruptive anti-LGBTQ editors and please help to edit List of people from Ukraine so that it objectively reflects the role of the LGBTQ people in the past, current and future Ukrainian politics, life, arts and science! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/2601:646:8500:2DD0:C5D3:FEA3:9F2F:EBCC 1 August 2020

Sources (both popular and scholarly) differ in whether they speak of a single "LGBT movement" or multiple "LGBT movements". I think this has been a topic of some controversy in the history of this article, and I don't want to relitigate that controversy here, but I also think the article could do with some (neutral) discussion of those terminological issues.

It's more sensible that it be "LGBT rights movement". Zenomonoz ( talk) 02:11, 9 December 2023 (UTC) reply

So yeah, I think there are two terminological disputes here (1) "LGBT movement[s]" vs "LGBT rights movement[s]"; (2) "LGBT movement" vs "LGBT movements". Still, my point in this section was to argue we should discuss these terminology issues in the article somewhere; I was trying to avoid reopening the can of worms about what the article should be called.
