The Person Task Force is a working group of members of the LGBT studies WikiProject dedicated to ensuring quality and coverage of biography articles of confirmed LGBT persons. Its primary focus is on living persons who have come out publicly, and of deceased persons whose sexuality is not in doubt.
Biographies of confirmed LGBT persons can be added to the Person Task Force's scope by adding "|person=yes" to the ((WikiProject LGBT studies)) template on the article's talk page.
The LGBT in Canada work group coordinates efforts to create and improve articles on LGBT topics and personalities in Canada.
The LGBT in the United States work group coordinates efforts to create and improve articles on LGBT rights by state and generally LGBT topics and personalities in the United States.
