Wiki Loves Pride is a global campaign to expand and improve LGBT+ content across several Wikimedia projects. Most activities of Wiki Loves Pride take place between June and October, traditionally the months when lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) communities around the world celebrate LGBT culture and history. The campaign is supported by Wikimedia LGBT+, a user group that promotes the development of content on Wikimedia projects which is of interest to LGBT+ communities. When you make an edit, in the edit summary, use the hashtag #STLpride19 to tag your edit. This way, we know how many edits were made in relation to this great campaign!
