			Though there are many ways to refer to the community, the current preferred way for this wiki is "LGBT". This is due to the prevalence outside of the community, the ability to understand its meaning, and the prevalence of reference inside the wiki at time of writing.

			Unless referring to a different community from the general LGBT community (ex. some people refer to the "MOGAI" community as being different than the general LGBT community) or discussing the acronym/reference name itself, the term "LGBT" is preferred.
