Notability

We've got kind of a mish mash here of notable publications and less than notable novels and memoirs. There are thousands of books on the topic. How shall we define notability? Bkatcher (talk) 22:01, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Selection criteria

Prerequisites

Before evaluating a work's notability, we should make sure it's relevant to the list, and within its scope.

Must be on-topic

Although the word

drag, cross-dressing, or intersex. Although these topics overlap, much of their literature is distinct. For publications about intersex, there is Literature about intersex
. There is enough published material about cross-dressing and drag to populate dedicated list articles as well.

Must be substantial

Works in which transgender is incidental or marginal dilute the list and make it more difficult to find the most relevant works. Therefore, for all entries, at least one of the following must be true:

  1. Transgender is either the subject of the work or a major theme.
  2. The
    original research
    is involved in interpreting the gender of a character.)
  3. The work is a well-regarded LGBTQI anthology with significant transgender content.

Evidence of notability

For books

The

.)

A work with scant coverage might still be worthy of inclusion if it's a canonical example of some facet of transgender thought or experience; or if it's a memoir, (auto)biography, correspondence collection, or diary of a

notable
transgender person.

For periodicals

  • All peer-reviewed academic journals devoted to transgender studies are suitable.
  • If a print magazine for transgender people has an ISSN, it is suitable.
  • All other transgender-focused periodicals—such as
    independent sources
    to attest their relevance and notability. Personal blogs of notable transgender people are not suitable.



As we check and revise the article's entries, I hope we'll spot ways that we can improve selection criteria to make List of transgender publications a better and better resource. Thoughts?

For information, a page already exists on Literature about intersex, and it is substantially different from this list. Trankuility (talk) 16:33, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ministry of Utmost Happiness

Arundhati Roy's The Ministry of Utmost Happiness has a hijra as one of its primary characters and merits inclusion in the list of fiction. Everybody got to be somewhere! (talk) 22:28, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
