thread_title: worldwide perspective?

message: By 1995, Brown University had a major called Sexuality & Society, just a synonym for LGBT Studies.  I believe it is now combined with Women's Studies and the combined major is called Gender & Sexuality Studies.  But here's the point:  Brown University may have been the first Ivy League institution to have an LGBT Studies major.  I don't have the cites at the moment, but readers should keep this in mind.  Brown did it before Yale and Harvard.  Recognize!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chumley41 (talk • contribs) 00:55, 15 August 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Tags 

message: After reading this entry, I know more about the establishment of LGBT courses and departments in higher education, but very little about Queer Studies beyond the fact that it involves the LGBT experience. What are some of the major themes of this discipline? What about its critical method? What are some foundational texts? What would I learn in a Queer Studies course that I wouldn't learn in a general course about "Sexuality in X"? This should be discussed in the body/text of the entry.
There needs to be more substance beyond "Queer Studies involves psychology, literary theory, sociology,...." kind of statements. This article seems to assume that the reader already knows what Queer Studies is and has done some reading on the topic. It needs to be less about establishing the history of departments and who came first and more outlining the academic discipline because it actually doesn't tell the reader much about what Queer Studies IS. 69.125.134.86 (talk) 10:47, 15 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I see much of what I'm looking for lies in the Queer Theory entry but I still think that there could be more descriptive content to Queer Studies than what exists right now. Surely Queer Studies involve a plurality of critical perspectives and isn't solely based on Queer Theory. 69.125.134.86 (talk) 10:52, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

::I think ref tags are usually discouraged in Talk pages, I'm not sure. In any case I don't think they're too much of a bother. I would remove them myself, but I'm lazy and I think they're minimally useful - a person would only have to copy/paste to include them in the article--User:Dwarf Kirlston - talk 13:28, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  More Articles for New non-U.S. Section 

message: The US universities that offer queer studies are included in the main part of the article. Then there is a section "Queer Studies at non-U.S. Universities". This is insulting.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:52DA:3100:F4E8:145B:B8EB:E400 (talk) 22:00, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Americanormative bias. 

message: If you want to move an article in a controversial topic area of the encyclopedia, please get consensus first, before moving. You can request such a move by following the guidelines at WP:RM#CM. 
I'll just note out of the box, that I'm opposed to a name change at this time. I could give lots of reasons, but I'll just rest on WP:COMMONNAME, and the ten-to-one difference in usage in academic sources. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 06:30, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversial move reversed 

message: I propose that this article be split into two separate articles, one for Queer studies and one for LGBT studies. Queer studies is a type of LGBT studies, but the two are not identical. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 02:59, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't oppose "queer" titles at all. I certainly wouldn't propose a name change for queer theory or queer of color critique, for example. Queer titles are perfectly appropriate for queer subjects, but not all of LGBT studies and LGBT erasure can be classified by the queer label. If I opposed queer titles, I wouldn't want a separate article on queer anarchism. There is a clear "queer anarchist" ideological tendency that is more specific than LGBT anarchism as a whole, for example. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 09:10, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: When you are arguing "'Queer' is not a universally used umbrella term for LGBTQ people and can be offensive. LGBT is the widely accepted umbrella term on Wikipedia.", like you did at  Talk:Queer erasure#Requested move 3 November 2019, I didn't see what else to think. That you suggested the split didn't make me think that you are any more okay with "queer" as a title. It just made me think exactly what WP:POVFORK outlines. Your move of the article was reversed and then you suggested this. Unless you can demonstrate with academic sources that "queer studies" and "LGBT studies" are two different things or that "queer studies" is a subset of "LGBT studies," I won't support a move or split. Furthermore, exactly how, in your view, is it a subset? What other subsets do you think exist? Given how the term queer is used these days, what would anyone be deciding is "queer studies" vs. "LGBT studies"? Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 09:44, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

thread_title: Splitting proposal

message: *Oppose per my arguments in the #Splitting proposal section above and per the evidence presented by Mathglot in the #Controversial move reversed section above. "Queer studies" is the WP:Common name. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 03:04, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

text: * Can you explain how four examples without "Queer studies" prove anything about the frequency of use of that term? Isn't this only half of the equation? Mathglot (talk) 06:52, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
