Proposal

While reading over this Wikipedia article, I have thought up some changes I could make to improve it. My first source from "Psychology Today", will be used to improve the "Parent and family-based LGBT treatment and education" section, I have already added a statistic about the use of illegal drugs being connected to not being accepted in their family's eyes. I have also used this source to add to the "School" section about bullying in schools. In the future, I will use this source to add a section/part about workplace discrimination and I will also use the last article in my bibliography called "LGBT People’s Experiences of Workplace Discrimination and Harassment". Next, from the article "LGBTQ Rights Timeline in American History" I am going to add to the "History" section. When I did my first evaluation of the article, I noticed the vague description of the history of the LGBTQ community. This article, while it is about the psychology of the community, a part of the psychology is the hardships they have faced/still face. Third, the source "The State of the LGBTQ Community in 2020" is updated, so I plan to use the statistics they have listed to add to the neutrality of the article. It will have facts that cannot be construed as someone's opinion. Fourth, in the source, "LGBTQ+ Communities And Mental Health" I plan on using the "Prevalence" section to enhance the "mental health" section of the Wikipedia article. Finally, in the source "Mental health challenges in the LGBTQ community", I am going to use the sections about how Pride betters the community's mental health.
