'''Message from Coordinator''': It's been almost two months since the last newsletter came out, so there are a fair few people who haven't really been kept up with our project. I'd like to welcome all those who have joined and those who have returned, and strongly reccommend that you use [[WT:LGBT|the talkpage]] for any queries or problems you have. Happy editing! |
|||
;Article News |
|||
* The ongoing effort to create a [[Wikipedia:List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people/To be sorted|comprehensive list of LGB people]] has begun to bear fruit - [[List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people/A|/A]] AND the [[List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people/W-Z|/W-Z]] lists have been featured! Congratulations to Dev920 and SatyrTN who nominated them respectively. Please consider pitching in the the remaining lists to help us get them finished before the end of the year. |
|||
;Project News |
|||
* WP:LGBT now has an IRC channel! It is #LGBTProject on Freenode. Users without IRC or Xchat can use the java app at java.freenode.net to access the channel from their web browser. Hope to see you in there sometime! |
|||
* David Shankbone has taken a LOT of [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_LGBT_studies#Some_recent_Shankbone_LGBT_photos|photos]]. An idea has been mooted to create a page for listing people who are willing to take images in their area on request, please give your thoughts [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_LGBT_studies#Photo_workgroup|here]]. |
|||
* Considerable discussion has recently been held on our coverage of same sex marriage, civil unions and domestic partnerships. You may be interested to [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_LGBT_studies/Archive_8#.22Same-sex_marriage_in_....22_v._.22Civil_unions_in_the_....22|read it]]. |
|||
* The list of LGBT people [[Wikipedia:List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people/To be sorted|to be sorted]] has now been reduced by over 30%. Please help us with it, all of us adding just one person a day would have a dramatic effect! |
|||
* A gay cabal conspiracy ghost has been created to do with what you will. :) |
|||
[[Image:Rainbowghost.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Wooh, massive gay conspiracy...]] |
|||
;Member News |
|||
* Since the last newsletter was released, we have had more members been labelled inactive than who have signed up - please consider recruiting a few more people if you can, a WikiProject is only as good as its members. :) |

The LGBT studies project has been rather quiet of late. Though we've added over 180 new members in the last year, only a small percentage are active participants. If you haven't visited our project or talk page in a while, please stop by for a look. Also, if you happen to bump into another editor who you feel might enjoy working with us, please extend an invitation. There's lot's do do, and the active members would sincerely appreciate some help. |
|||
Welcome to the 11 new members that joined us in September: [[User:Bu852|Bu852]], [[User:JuniorMuruin|JuniorMuruin]], [[User:Laualoha|Laualoha]], [[User:JereKrischel|JereKrischel]], [[User:Dybryd|Dybryd]], [[User:Sexperts|Sexperts]], [[User:Ctjf83|Ctjf83]], [[User:Allstarecho|Allstarecho]], [[User:Johnandbob|Johnandbob]], [[User:Carlossuarez46|Carlossuarez46]], and [[User:Carterdriggs|Carterdriggs]]! |
|||
;[[Wikipedia:WikiProject LGBT studies/Peer review|LGBT Project Peer review]] |
|||
Our Peer review project is struggling at the present, with only a few people reviewing the articles. While it is certainly possible to submit articles for a general peer review, a review by members of the LGBT community can be of additional value for LGBT specific writing. There are several articles currently up for review on a wide range of topics. At the very least, reading the articles will undoubtedly broaden your intellectual horizons :-) |
|||
;[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Sexuality and gender|Deletion discussions]] |
|||
At the moment, [[David Le Brocq]], [[Malmö Devilants]] and [[Trajectory Hermeneutics]] are up for deletion review. Please take a look at them and make your voice heard at the deletion review. Articles nominated for deletion also present a challenge for improvement. See what you can do, and watchlist our deletion review page. |
|||
;FA & GA article news |
|||
Since our last newsletter, [[Fun Home]] and [[GayFest]] have been promoted to [[WP:Good article|Good Article status]]. Congratulations to all editors who have worked so hard to improve them! While [[List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people: T-V|the T-Z list]] was promoted to [[Wikipedia:Featured list|Featured list]] on [[September 26]], [[2007]], we have had no articles reach [[WP:Featured article|Featured Article]] status since [[Homer's Phobia]] was promoted last March. In fact, one article of our Project was delisted: [[Andrew Van De Kamp]]. Please take a look at out listed articles and see if you'd like to try to take one to Featured status (there are almost 8,000 to choose from). Additionally, [[Conversion therapy]] has been nominated for Featured status. Please read the article and give feedback at the [[WP:FAC|Feartured Article Candidates page]]. (See also [[Wikipedia:WikiProject LGBT studies/FA-class articles|our FA-class list]].) |
|||
;Pederasty article controversy |
|||
The [[Pederasty]] articles continue to be a point of controversy both within and outside of our community. Various editors have suggested that to include them as LGBT Project related somehow taints the project and brings Wikipedia into disrepute. Other editors have stated that the articles, and especially the Pederasty article, are part of the core of LGBT studies. Well meaning editors continue to remove our tags from the articles themselves as well as the talk pages. If you have time, please read the articles and watchlist them to protect them from vandalism and well meaning but counterproductive edits. |
|||
;[[List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people]] |
|||
The list of LGBT people has survived its 4th nomination for deletion. Please watchlist this list to protect it from vandalism and unsourced additions. There are many in Wikipedia who would like to see this Featured status list removed from the project. It is up to us to keep it to such a high caliber that it never is removed. |
|||
;[[User:DavidShankBone|David Shankbone]] |
|||
Our project member David Shankbone is now working as a journalist for [[Wikinews]], as well as continuing to improve our project and Wikipedia as a whole with his photographs. A sincere thank you goes out to him for all of his hard work. Wikipedia would not shine nearly as brightly without your contributions, David. |
|||
;[[Barbara Gittings]] |
|||
[[Image:Rainbowghost.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Happy Halloween, everybody! Be happy and celebrate!]] |
|||
The surviving life partner of prominent LGBT rights activist Barbara Gittings recently called one of our editors and, among other things, complimented us on what a great job our project is doing on Wikipedia. Thanks to everyone who contributes to this project, either through their article edits or support for other project members. We really are making an difference here! |
|||
;Member assistance |
|||
Some of our project members have been having difficulties related to editing on the encyclopedia. If you are feeling frustrated or distressed by your editing experience, please don't keep it to yourself. Wikipedia is a collaborative effort, and we are all here to help one another. Drop a line on our talkpage or on another editor's page, and other members of the LGBT project will happily give you the support you want and need. |
|||
Lastly, [[Halloween]] is just around the corner. More than most holidays, Halloween is a holiday embraced by and tailor made to our community (though God only knows why we are invisible in the Halloween article here. Perhaps somebody would like to rectify that editing oversight). Have fun, everybody, and remember to both trick '''''and''''' treat! |

Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:400px-Awfulfont.PNG]]'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear.

If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged. |

== Proposed deletion of Rough Sex == |

[[Image:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|48px|]] |
|||
The article [[Rough Sex]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]  because of the following concern: |
|||
:'''No references, no claim of notability, fails [[WP:NSONG]] and [[WP:GNG]].''' |
|||
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]]. |
|||
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Rough Sex|the article's talk page]]. |
|||
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> [[User:Richhoncho|Richhoncho]] ([[User talk:Richhoncho|talk]]) 20:08, 20 January 2015 (UTC) |

The last straw was being accused of lying. I cannot defend against such an accusation. The one thing of which I am most proud about myself is my honesty. If that is not honored here, I have no place here. Thanks to everyone who was kind.
My first edit: creating the Centchroman article.
My last: this one. Joie de Vivre° 01:11, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
It's sad that this is exactly how the monkeys end up running the zoo. Hat's off to you sir/ma'am. The wiki world was a better place with you in it while you were. 72.64.41.70 17:46, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Comparison of birth control methods
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Comparison of birth control methods. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comparison of birth control methods. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:58, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

File source problem with File:400px-Awfulfont.PNG
Thank you for uploading File:400px-Awfulfont.PNG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 14:58, 20 February 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Acather96 (talk) 14:58, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Rough Sex
The article Rough Sex has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Richhoncho (talk) 20:08, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
