A source that only says "queer" is not a source that verifies lesbian characters[edit]
Queer is an unspecific vague term. It can be taken to mean lesbian, or bisexual, or pansexual, or asexual, or non-binary. If a source chokes on the word lesbian (and many do), it might use "gay" or "homosexual" for the character, but "queer" is not enough. The following film was removed from the list because the characters are not described as lesbian by the source: | rowspan="2" | 2018
| rowspan="2" | ''[[Knife+Heart]]''
