the title and link pretty much say it all, but to explain a bit more: the ultimate goal of this particular page is, to quote @Algernon_Asimov who is the other person who will be working on this, to list out "specific counselling and emergency and health services in various places around the world (eventually)." (support groups are also probably helpful). we're just two people though who will probably already be doing a lot with this page tracking down good resources, and tildes has a decent-sized population of people who live outside of the US and Commonwealth, so this is where y'all come in. if you have resources on hand that you think would fit the bill here/cover a country we're unlikely to have any info on ourselves (like Turkey), please suggest them for addition to this page. a brief description of the resources would be helpful if possible, but is not mandatory. (also, while the focus is mostly on health/emergency stuff, don't hesitate to post stuff outside of that, since i'm thinking i'll make a page for stuff like that too at some point.)
What pages are you thinking about adding? FAQs, common misconceptions, "how do I come out"? What about info on DIY?

probably all of those in some form eventually, since we have the wiki, and it shouldn't be that hard? honestly, sky is the limit with this, i think, and if there's the resources and the time to compile them into something without it becoming overwhelming, it makes sense to do so.
the verbose ones also work, honestly, as long as we're able to decently summarize them to people (or just explain that they're more complicated or whatever else is necessary). my comment there was...

Hmm, I should probably try to tinker with the styling for different header sizes. The sequential headers in that page don't look very good, and the different levels aren't very distinct.

Yeah - I have a bunch of resources stashed away in my personal wiki, but they tend towards the verbose. In any case, I'll see what I can find.
