Peer Review

Thus far, the article has a good lead. I was impressed by the quality sources. Some suggestions would be to be more inclusive by utilizing the term "LGBTQIA". Perhaps, rephrase the statement, "There are traditions and expectations that LGBT people should not study or have careers in science." Add some examples of traditions and expectations that are referred to in the statement and/or weave the source directly into the sentence to avoid the it reading like a judgement statement. Give some examples of who "some activists", "some academic commentators", and "Various activist organizations" are. Finally, is there any statistical evidence that could support the points of the article more specifically?JamieLynexander (talk) 19:42, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
