Bibliography
http://www.tandfonline.com/loi/wijt20 This is a link to the website of the journal. Within this site, there is information about the publication, aims and scope of the journal, information on the topics seen in the journal, etc. This particular source will serve as the primary source for this Wikipedia page, however, there is still a limited amount of information on the site. This source also provides information on who the current and past editors of the journal are which will be helpful in potentially adding a section on the editor(s).
http://gendersexualityhealth.org/people/WalterBockting.html The following source is a page on the current editor of the paper, Walter O. Bockting. This will serve as a source when adding a section about the current editor because he does not have a Wikipedia page. This page discusses his field of interest, publications, and background information about the editor. If possible, I may consider adding a stub article about him so there would be the ability to link his Wikipedia page.
http://www.scimagojr.com/journalsearch.php?q=14912&tip=sid and https://www.researchgate.net/journal/1553-2739_International_Journal_of_Transgenderism Both of these sources are information on the statistics of the journal. They both provide information on how the journal is doing, as well as things like it's impact factor. This will be beneficial to the page because it can serve as a source for information on how well received, useful, and impactful the journal really is.
http://web.archive.org/web/20070505034642/http://www.symposion.com/ijt/index.htm This online archive provides links to a select few issues that have been published by the journal. This can help find when the issues are typically published and help further the publication history section of the Wikipedia page. It can also help with the "popular publications" section that I am considering adding to the page.
Draft of Wiki Article
Editing the lead:
The only edit needed to be made in this lead is that they have the incorrect year for when the journal was founded. It was founded in 1987, not 1988.
Publication History:
The International Journal of Transgenderism releases one volume that includes four issues per year. The journal's first issue of volume one was published in July of 1997[3]. The journal has since published 17 volumes from a broad range of topics including, but not limited to: Psychology, Endocrinology, Sexology, Law, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, and so on.
*Dr. J, this add on that I put into this article was removed by another editor. They didn’t however list reasons why so I am not sure what exactly to do about that.
