Welcome to the Non-binary wiki

The wiki dedicated to the promotion of non-binary gender identities
About

Non-binary wiki was created in the 1st of February, 2017, after the original Nonbinary.org Wiki went down. Luckily, the Wayback machine had a copy of it. Our current goal is to build a new wiki taking the articles from the old wiki, adding them here and improving them.

Since the day of its creation, 410 users have been working on 932 articles.

Non-binary?

Non-binary is a term that refers to those people whose gender is not male nor female. It can be neither, both, a third one or it can also change over time. Non-binary people fall under the transgender umbrella term, and non-binary is an umbrella term itself, although some people use it to describe their gender identity too.

Get involved!

This site is a wiki, meaning that anybody (including you) can make a contribution to it. You don't even need to create an account, although it's strongly recommended. These are some things you can do to contribute:

  • Edit an existing article. Search any page and improve its content! You can also expand a stub.
  • Go to the list of wanted pages and create one of them! (You can take as a reference the old Nonbinary.org wiki)
  • Spread the word. If you know somebody questioning their gender, tell them about this wiki. If you don't know anybody questioning their gender, tell them anyway!
Featured article

The list of fictional depictions of nonbinary gender is for taking note of all examples of nonbinary gender identity in fiction in any kind of media. The media includes animation, board and card games, books and other literature, comics and graphic novels, movies, performance, TV, webseries, and video games. Since most people don't know that people can have a nonbinary gender identity, the way that nonbinary genders are represented in fiction can be a valuable part of nonbinary visibility and awareness. Fiction can also be an outlet for nonbinary people to explore their identities and the possibilities of society's attitudes toward them. These are reasons why representation matters. It's very rare for fiction to have any real representation of nonbinary gender. It's almost as rare for characters to have an undisclosed gender, or to have a fictional sex, which almost but not really counts as nonbinary representation. They're close enough that they are dealt with on this page anyway, since sometimes the distinctions aren't clear.
