What Is MOGAI?
MOGAI is an acronym that stands for Marginalized Orientations, Gender Alignments and Intersex (sometimes edited to be MOGII: Marginalized Orientations, Gender Identities, and Intersex). The intention was to coin a simpler acronym for people who aren't straight/cis/perisex which could be used instead of longer acronyms like LGBTQIAP+ or acronyms with harmful origins like GSM/GSRM. The acronym was created in (approximately) 2015 by Tumblr user cisphobeofficial, but since then has spread to numerous other sites and offline discussions. "MOGAI" is commonly used as an adjective to describe neolabels - labels that are newer - and often in a mocking fashion to mean labels one doesn't think are valid. Read more:

Getting Started
Intimidated by Miraheze? We understand!

Editing
We suggest looking over the following:
 * Miraheze FAQ (What is Miraheze?)
 * MediaWiki Help (How to edit, insert links, cite sources, etc)
 * Preferences (Customizing your user experience)
 * We also highly suggest new editors make themselves a Sandbox page. This is a page you can use to edit however you want, which can be used to test edits or hold in-progress work before you put it on the real page.

How Do I...
First, check our Guide category. These pages are made to be guides for how we'd like different kinds of pages to be formatted. You can even hit "Edit source," copy all the text within a Guide, close your edit to the Guide without changing anything, and then

It also notifies users via email when other users request them as a friend or foe and/or sends them a message. Click to see guides. We suggest using the profile features to mention your pronouns, what gendered terms you're comfortable with being called, and any important boundaries you may have.
