Hey Satyr, I know you saw Leah's post about BeBe K'Roche, since you gave her the commons link. <bok bok! Ummm... anyway> I think her idea about userfying it seems reasonable, but I'd like another opinion. What do you think?

I suspect userfying would be fine, though I'm not sure it needs to be. It asserts notability and has one semi-RS on it. With a tiny bit of work it could be a "Start"-class article. My fear about userfying is that Poetiik might be a one-off editor - sie only made three edits while here, this being one of them. If the article is userfied and sie doesn't come back, it will languish in userspace. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs)05:29, 1 April 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-04-01T05:29:00.000Z","author":"SatyrTN","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T05:29:00.000Z-Aleta-2008-04-01T02:41:00.000Z","replies":["c-Aleta-2008-04-01T16:23:00.000Z-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T05:29:00.000Z"]}}-->
You make good points. I'll leave it in the mainspace. I found one other issue of the same newsletter to cite. There doesn't seem to be a lot else to use for sourcing.

The L Word is a lesbian show, but it does have major bisexual characters, as does Torchwood. I'm pretty sure most of the first season of the L Word is dealing with Jenny's bisexuality. Alice's bisexuality is kind of important to her relationships too.
The catagory I've made is bisexuality-related tv series. I'd say Torchwood, with all it's bisexuality, is pretty bisexuality related. Even if it's not the central theme. The show has an lgbt category, and would you argue that that's not important to the show either? The producer Russel T Davies stresses the importance of the show as a drama before fantasy, just as with Doctor Who.
Bob & Rose is a mini series that revolves entirely around the issue of a Bob's bisexuality. So does Portrait of a Marriage. It's the whole theme of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila.
I understand that there aren't a lot of shows where bisexuality is an fairly frequent issue, but I argue that definitely with these shows, it is. Enough so that they are 'bisexuality-related'.
Also, you said, "Even Torchwood, where all the characters are bisexual, it's not a central issue to the show." I'm not sure what you mean by that. Does it not count because they don't talk about it? Or they're not oppressed for it? I mean, it's a fairly important part of Jack's life, and it's definitely an important part of Ianto's drama in the show. It's pretty blatantly shown that traditionally, members of Torchwood aren't monosexual, and that's a fairly significant portion of the drama. Without it, a lot of things would be different in this show.

I understand that bisexuality is present on a lot of the shows - let's take Torchwood, since it's the only one of the lot that I've seen :) So yes, all the characters are bisexual. And being bisexual is part of the characters. But it isn't important to the series. They don't talk about being bisexual. They don't have to come out to their parents as bisexual. I don't even think the word bisexual has been uttered. So actually, I would argue that it's not important to the show. Would you categorize the show with "Category:Gambling-related television series? They gamble with their lives almost constantly. And for The L Word - yes, some of the characters are bisexual, but the series is lesbian-related, right? I guess what I'm getting at is that bisexuality may be significant to a character or set of characters; it may even be a significant part of some episodes, but is it central to the series, which is what the cat is for. And given that question, is it a common enough theme - or even "notable" enough - to warrant its own cat? -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs)05:42, 1 April 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-04-01T05:42:00.000Z","author":"SatyrTN","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T05:42:00.000Z-Andral-2008-04-01T03:18:00.000Z","replies":["c-Andral-2008-04-01T19:55:00.000Z-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T05:42:00.000Z"]}}-->
Obviously I think it is. So if you want to nominate it for deletion, that's up to you. But I don't think your arguments are particularly valid. Just because the characters sexuality isn't socially problematic, doesn't mean it's not important to their development. The show is catagorised as a drama, meaning the dramatic elements, not just the sci fi, are important. Would the fact that they're all bisexual only matter if someone said "Hey guys, we're all bisexual!"?Andral (talk) 19:55, 1 April 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-04-01T19:55:00.000Z","author":"Andral","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Andral-2008-04-01T19:55:00.000Z-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T05:42:00.000Z","replies":["c-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T22:13:00.000Z-Andral-2008-04-01T19:55:00.000Z"]}}-->
You're totally missing my point. The category is "Bisexuality-related television series". Can you show me in the description of the series how it is "bisexuality-related"? I've already agreed that several/all of the characters are bi/omni sexual, but I think you'd be hard-pressed to find any source at all that says the series is bisexuality-related. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs)22:13, 1 April 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-04-01T22:13:00.000Z","author":"SatyrTN","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T22:13:00.000Z-Andral-2008-04-01T19:55:00.000Z","replies":["c-Andral-2008-04-02T13:58:00.000Z-SatyrTN-2008-04-01T22:13:00.000Z"]}}-->
OK, so whether or not some or all of the regular stars are bisexual, it's not bisexuality related unless somewhere says it's a bisexual show? I can only come up with stuff like Russel T Davies saying all characters' sexualities are intended to remain fluid, but that's even quoted on the Torchwood page (or the themes in torchwood page). I mean otherwise all you can get is stuff like this http://www.biresource.org/717, http://www.johnbarrowman.com/outabout/press/2006/GT102006.html, http://www.afterelton.com/TV/2007/9/torchwood . So if that's not enough for you, I don't know how to convince you. But I still don't think that excludes the show from this category.
You know we should probably be having this discussion on the Torchwood discussion, because I really don't believe you're going to convince me, and it'll ultimately come down to what everyone else thinks.

It's alright. I understand that the category may be "too soon" or not large enough, but I chose the shows I did for very specific reasons, over many other shows featuring bisexuality. These shows majorly feature bisexuality. There are a lot of films and shows that feature homosexual relations that are in the lgbt category that don't mention homosexuality either. Come to think of it, I think the word 'gay' has only appeared in Torchwood twice in two seasons, and both times been made obviously incorrect.

SatyrTN,
Please find the user page of ITU-T clarified, with a donation of copyrighted material.

For some reason, SatyrBot has added the WikiProject:Australia banner to Talk:The Fly (U2 song) and Talk:The Saints Are Coming, two songs which - to my knowledge - have little or nothing to do with Australia.

Hi, MelicansMatkin! Both were number one singles in Australia. The bot is going through User:Moondyne/AU categories - a list of categories the project developed.

I'm removing the banner from "Bring Me to Life" as well. Simply being a #1 single in a country is an extraordinarily thin reason for adding a project banner. Also note that this edit damaged the code (apparently) in its attempt to handle the WikiProjectBannerShell implementation, and removed {{TalkHeader}} in the process.

Cool. I was running a script on the Flora of Australia category subtree, and one of the last things it did was list all the categories that appear on any of the articles in the subtree. Since that page was tagged into all those categories, and some of them were in my subtree, all those other categories got added to my list, and I was left wondering "WTF? Which plant article is also a Men at Work album?"

My apologies I was removing deleted categories for WP:CfD, and I realized that those categories were re-added by the users and there is apparently no policy on re-adding deleted categories, so I stopped when I read that. Again, so sorry for any inconvenience. As for the XHTML-ing, I do that automatically in article namespace, and it was a holdover.

Hello.
She invented an entire style of dance that is now performed all over the world by hundreds of dancers, what is not notable about that?
And she has already been written about in several other wiki articles (as being the person that founded the particular style of dance) If users have written articles about dancers who used to be students of Carolena's and are now famous dancers themselves, then surely Carolena is notable as well? You may not have heard of her if you are not a belly dancer but there is not a belly dancer on the planet who has not heard of her.

You told me to tell you when I would like to have the bot run per my request here. Well I'm ready for it! Thanks a whole bunch. I also had a question on whether or not you could also have your bot do another request, this being just a one-time request. I was wondering if you would be able to search Category:Green Bay Packers players and Category:Green Bay Packers coaches and make a list of all the articles missing an Infobox. I figured that you could just search the articles for the string "Infobox" and any articles that miss it could be placed on an appropriate sub-page (Wikipedia:WikiProject Green Bay Packers/Infobox needed). Then the project could go and place the appropriate infobox on the articles. Well let me know if this is possible and if you would be interested.

Hello again, my friend. Many thanks for all your help. I have one small niggling question that I'd like to run by you if you don't mind. I made a contribution to an entry on Weathersfield, Vermont, in the 'notable people' section. A fellow deleted the entry (although he left my contribution about it on the history section intact), and basically challenged the fact that the individual was important by noting that the person didn't have a wikipedia page. Well, my experience is that just because someone doesn't have a page on wikipedia doesn't mean they're not important. :-) In any case, by and large I've found people here very courteous about this sort of thing. Before I knew what I was doing, I made an entry on the Fox Talbot, the inventor of photography. Rather than delete it outright, a person pleasantly asked me to substantiate what I'd posted. Thanks to you, by then I knew how to footnote. I went back in and added the appropriate footnotes, and the entry stands as I wrote it. My (longwinded) point is that it would be nice if before people simply delete, they at least run it by you and give you a shot at authenticating what one has written. Is that too much to expect? Just curious.....

I have subsequently fleshed out a great deal of the history on William Jarvis but have not yet written a full-scale page on him. However, I just received this message from the individual I mentioned earlier: "I've realised that I missed the thing about how any person recognised as of great significance in his/her field (i.e. sheep ranching in the USA) is considered notable."

Okay, thank you. I suppose I figured that having argued with this individual over the importance of Jarvis, it might stand to reason that he would let me know he was going to go ahead and write the piece. Oh well. So much for manners. I will go ahead and contribute to it, now that it's done. Have a good day.MarmadukePercy (talk) 21:41, 10 April 2008 (UTC) Yes, now that I think it over, I consider that sort of behavior rude, arrogant and discourteous. Having argued ad infinitum with someone over the lack of 'notability' of an individual, then to turn right around and post an article without even having the courtesy to let the person know you were going to do it.... Well, I suppose one can do that, but it doesn't exactly endear one to fellow wikipedians, which is pretty obvious reading that individual's talk page.

Just wondering how one approaches the wikipedia commons for a clarification. I posted two photos that were sent to me by a family member, personally taken by her, with express permission for me to use them in whatever way I saw fit. I posted both here (one of a family house, the other of a tombstone). But it appears that wikipedia commons is denying me a right to use them (or at least a 'bot' is). I wonder if there's a way to straighten this out. I know the person who sent them to me and she has no objection to their being used.

I can't figure out the wikipedia commons for the life of me. I uploaded the two files to the commons, and then posted them. I have posted a couple of different times to the 'bot' who seems to have me blocked (or is it an actual user?). No answer. And now wikipedia commons prevents me from communicating to anyone, claiming that I uploaded two images without permission. I do note that the 'bot' or actual human being notes on its web page that it has a 'basic understanding' of English. Hmmm.... What gives? Thanks!

Thanks for uploading Image:Aquafina logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

I see that you deleted Masonic era with "G12: Blatant copyright infringement: http://www.phoenixmasonry.org/mackeys_encyclopedia/c.htm)".
Could you restore it?
It was based on the work of Albert Mackey who died in 1881.

Can I ask you for help on the Ann Scott page (french writer) as I noticed you updated it once or twice ? I'm updating it with new relevant changes and a another user is undoing everything all the time. He goes by the name of Olaf150 (which is my name reversed, and I don't know why he's doing that) and also by different London ip's. He's undoing links I add, new lay outs for the bibliography, new translation of french citations that were not properly translated, and so on. He's coming after me every time I change something, and as I'm not an administrator, I can't block him. I don't know what's wrong with him, as he never explains his own changes. What can I do ?

I was wondering, whenever you get back I was hoping you could run your bot through all the Illinois articles, and possibly locate all the ones that have pictures in them? Is something like this possible? I am looking for those that I have missed, that need tagging or moving to Commons. I don't know when you will be back, but if you could just respond to my talk page so I know you might be around, I would really appreciate it. I took a wikibreak myself and I need to take a look at that other list of stuff from the last run.

Thanks for uploading Image:Amherst Town Seal.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check
That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Thanks for uploading Image:La-Fea-mas-Bella.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

When dealing with possibly factual but uncited material continually added to an article, do you think it's better to keep removing it and leaving a note on the editor's talk page, or to look for a source myself? On one hand, the material sometimes seems easily verifiable, on the other hand I don't want to feel like I'm continually fact-checking for people who can't be bothered to do their own (and show their work).

Thanks for uploading Image:The Fairly OddParents - Baby Poof.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Hello, members and friends of WP:LGBT! I'm not one to be writing newsletters, but I miss our cruise director, Miss Julie, and our project is drifting along with a few leaking plugs in the bottom of the boat. Hey, it happens. Every group we join goes through changes. If Wikipedia weren't so interesting it wouldn't also be so frustrating sometimes. And vice versa. More than one Wikiproject has tumbleweeds blowing through it, but this is one that can't afford to let that happen. Even if you pop in to the talk page of the project, you can let us know you're still around.
WP:LGBT's Role in HIV / AIDS articles
It wouldn't be a proper gay community without a li'l bit o' drama! That's right. If we aren't arguing about something, then we should be asking if we're still queer. Maybe that's for the best, since we know we're still kicking. Our most recent topic is how far the role of our project should go in dipping our toes into HIV/AIDS articles. The main AIDS article was delisted as a Featured Article last month, sadly. (Sending a swift kick to WP:Medicine.) A spirited discussion is available for your entertainment on the WP:LGBT talk page about just how much of HIV and AIDS should we take on. As ever, we'll take your opinions under advisement. We're going to have to, because it doesn't seem to have been settled.
Is Pride POV?
We have a pretty cool sidebar that identifies core LGBT articles. Its symbol is the iconic gay pride flag, much like other Wikiprojects have iconic symbols denoting the topic is a core subject in a series of articles. However, a question recently arose asking if the symbol itself is not neutral. Should a pride flag show up at the top of the article on Conversion therapy? How else would anyone know the article is about queer issues? Is there another symbol that is as widely recognized and that includes all our many splintered facets? At what point do we stop asking ourselves all these questions and just go have a mint julep on the verandah and stop caring?
For the love of all that is holy, no Kool Aid jokes. However, an editor involved in pioneering San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk's article has included a section about the late supervisor's support of Jim Jones and the People's Temple. While it may be accurate, there is a Request for Comment regarding how much emphasis the section places on Milk's support in light of his overall political influence on the city, and indeed the rest of the United States. Milk's article is a sad one in more ways than one. It lacks the detail and heart that honors its subject. Anyone want to do a barter with me? I'll bring Harvey Milk to featured status (give me a month or two so I can read stuff), if you do something of equal value to WP:LGBT?? Make me an offer...
Queer Studies is offensive!
The established branch of study known as Queer studies was brought up as an category for deletion because an editor was offended by the use of "queer" in the title. It was overwhelmingly rejected mostly by the usernames I see here on our Wikiproject page. (A clue that I know you are out there, hiding...biding your time...) So, I wish I could congratulate you, but now I'm all confused by my sympathy for the editor who was offended. So, if you're reading this, Moni has a short memory and can't remember your username. Don't be put off by our demonstrative pushiness. Join us. We can always use involved editors.
What can you do to help the project out? Be a wiki-fairy, on many levels. There are all kinds of articles that need help. Why, just this morning I removed those ugly wikify and cleanup tags from four articles at random. If you can put [[ ]] around stuff, you can clean up articles. There's a list of articles that need attention at the top of the WP:LGBT talk page. Or you can start with the Lambda Literary Awards, where the goddess of my altar received a pioneering award, and was "reduced to rubble" by Katherine V. Forrest's wonderful speech. The 20th ceremony of the Lambda Literary Awards, which celebrates LGBT literature, took place in West Hollywood on May 29th [4]. The page needs to be updated with the new winners, to be found on the official website [5].
Why on earth would someone want to delete material about homosexuality? 'Tis truly a mystery. But these embattled articles have some random evil gnomes removing information that places these folks under our queer umbrella. Help us keep an eye out for the deletions. Take a peek at the articles, familiarize yourselves with the info, and be handy with the undo function in the article history. If tempers flare, take it to the Hall monitors and let them sort it out. Best solution is to make sure your sources are immaculate.
This month's Wiki stars
This is what I get for opening my big fat mouth and suggesting the newsletter should be revived. Here I am writing it. So, to pat self on back (*cough*) Mulholland Dr. became a featured article in May. This is A Good Thing since it is my personal declaration that there is no such thing as lesbian porn. I don't care what Benjiboi says about the video collection at goodvibes. Instead, we have hot women who connect on a deep, personal, soul-touching level, so this film should qualify as some of the skankiest porn available for lesbians. Plus, it's completely confusing and surreal! D'you think Laura Harring would care that the article is featured? I don't think so either... (Call me, Laura!)
Compulsive hoarding of templates
Once I saw a harrowing episode of Animal Planet's Animal Cops where this guy had, like, 250 cats in his house and it freaked me right out. I'm drawing a parallel between 250 cats and, well...three, really, templates in articles involving LGBT issues. Can we stick to one, maybe? In the aforementioned Harvey Milk's article there's a core LGBT template, a link to the LGBT portal, and a sidebar for LGBT rights. Jiminy! You'd think we weren't the folk to set industrial grey carpeting and track lighting in vogue. An LGBT footer was designed to link to articles of interest that aren't the aforementioned core articles. What do you think, can we have either an LGBT template for core articles, a footer for LGBT articles that are high profile but not core, or an LGBT rights template? As ever, anything's up for discussion on the WP:LGBT talk page.
It's June, Pride month. Wear sunscreen, stay hydrated, get a designated driver, then go half-dressed in the streets find a girlfriend or boyfriend, or some homo who's standing there looking lonely and kiss 'em up real good. Remember, it all started 39 years ago when a bunch of drag queens just got fed the f*ck up by the cops raiding the bar and dragging them all out to the pokey again. Rock on, queens! Enjoy your celebrations. My town's is in October, and 200 people attend. I miss Denver.
It looks like we've picked up a lot of talent lately. We have no doubt you'll be making your indelible mark on LGBT knowledge as we know it, here at Wikipedia.
In the immortal words of Miss Julie, "May all your Wiki days be bright, and may your Love Boat never turn into a Poseidon."
We miss you, Miss Julie, as well as all the others who have graced our project and are on wiki-breaks or just got fed up with all the nuttiness and went to live their lives.

Having a relationship (sexual or otherwise) with a man when you're a man - that's what homosexuality is. Labeling Schillaci gay is incorrect by any definition. His molesting was about power, not the gender of the person being molested.
And you couldn't be more wrong. Paedophiles may be either heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual. He's a homosexual paedophile, simply. Read up on Pedophilia and get your facts straight. Nor is pedophilia about power/domination, I guess it could be, but that's rare.

Hi, I saw this edit by SatyrBot today. It looks like the bot is adding an "importance" parameter to the {{WPBiography}} template. This parameter was deprecated a long time ago for {{WPBiography}}. WPBiography uses the "priority" parameter instead (don't know why). Please update SatyrBot accordingly (or convince WikiProject Biography to go back to using "importance"). Thanks!

I have nominated John McMullen (broadcaster), an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/John McMullen (broadcaster). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?

An unfortunate effect of a group less active than in the past is that our articles lose integrity. This one is at Good Article Review for that reason. The talk page is quite active as a result. You have the opportunity to help. This is the corest of our core articles, and it needs some attention because it gets a lot of controversial input from many sides. If you can spare any time to edit the article, please do what you can.
Soon after we were informed that Homosexuality is being scrutinized, we heard the same for one of our few Featured Articles. As a participant of the Featured Article process, I think this is actually a good thing. The standards for Featured Articles are getting higher with time. But as a member of this project, that means that a few of ours may be de-listed unless someone can swoop in and save them. This one has to do with the designation of homosexuality as a crime in Germany. Most of this article's sources are in German. If anyone has any particular skill in this area, please lend a hand!
I know you folks think I have much experience in a gay bathhouse, and I hate to disappoint you, but I actually do not. I seem like the sort of person who likes to stroll about in a towel. Shocking, no? It appears that Ashleyvh is single-handedly addressing all the problems with this article at its GA Review. While that's pretty impressive, it's also no doubt exhausting. Can anyone help out there?
In what I hope will counter the jolt of re-evaluating three Good or Featured Articles, José Sarria and Janet Jackson as gay icon passed as Good Articles, and Black Cat Bar (famous San Francisco oft-raided gay bar) is nominated, all by Otto4711. Rock on, man. You're a machine. Good luck with your nominations. What is it about women that make them gay icons? And are there lesbian icons that aren't lesbians? How about bisexual icons? Am I the only lesbian who reacts with soul-trembling fear at the sight of Angelina Jolie?
New WP:LGBT studies member Pinkkeith has done this cool thing. If you click on that link, you'll see all the articles, categories, templates, and miscellany up for deletion. They're usually there because they're not considered to be not notable. That can be a relative concept, and sometimes it has to be argued that topics pertaining to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender issues are notable.
It seems a recurring issue which articles to tag, and what to say about a topic that's tagged. Certainly, because an article falls under our scope doesn't necessarily make the person gay. Florida Governor Charlie Crist has been rumored to be gay in some newspaper accounts. Although we all know Fred Phelps is supergay, he won't admit it so instead he does the absolutely awfulest anti-gay things on the planet to deflect suspicion. NAMBLA, the red headed stepchild of the LGBT world, is tagged with an explanation we have yet to decide if we'll keep.
In the lurking I do around and about on Wiki, I've long been astounded at the forbearance Benjiboi has for the utterly insane. Perhaps not so much, since the message on Benji's talk page notes frequent absences due to homophobia and transphobia. But it takes some kind of ... something that I don't have to face the constant anti-gay POV Benji does.
Benjiboi is a a bit of a WikiFaerie, a WikiGnome and also a member of the Article Rescue Squadron in addition to being a LGBT project member. A few of Benjiboi's favorite links for making the wikiverse more fab are:
Becksguy didn’t start actively editing until May 2007. His most frequent tasks on Wiki include reverting vandalism to LGBT articles and creating new project-related articles. He comes from New York state, and to prove not all of us are teenagers (ha! I am so totally 15!) he's in his 60s and retired.
Becksguy considers his biggest triumph on Wikipedia so far was a DYK in December 2007 for the first-ever newspaper report on what became AIDS, in the New York Native. He's also helped save several project-related articles from deletion. His lowest moment here was getting involved in the discussion on a particular terrorism related article, thinking he could help calm the roiled waters on an extremely contentious subject with multiple edit wars and passionate editors.
Here at WP:LGBT, he creates and improves articles that present notable LGBT related subjects in a fair and balanced way, and tries to include more of the significant alternative sexuality related subjects without being an activist, and works to better source project-related articles.
On Wikipedia as a whole, he says, "I think we need to learn better what processes work for a massive collaborative project. Some of what worked well for a more informal small project doesn’t scale up well. Process is not as important when the participants know each other. We need to get more of the current members to be more active. If more members were energized, the project would be able to accomplish more. We should be, in effect, the smaller and included Wikipedia for LGBT related subjects. Overall, I wish we could focus more on content creation and improvement, and less on vandal fighting."
"A Supreme Court decision in 1958 reversed a 1956 ruling by a federal district court that U.S. postal authorities were correct in prohibiting the mailing of the Mattachine Society's ONE magazine. The lower court had ruled that ONE was not protected by the First Amendment because the magazine's contents 'may be vulgar, offensive, and indecent even though not regarded as such by a particular group ... because their own social or moral standards are far below those of the general community ... Social standards are fixed by and for the great majority and not by and for a hardened or weakened minority.'" - Michael Bronski in Pulp Friction, 2003
Thanks for being weak and having lowered standards with me. --Moni3 (talk) 00:10, 24 July 2008 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-07-24T00:10:00.000Z","author":"Moni3","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Moni3-2008-07-24T00:10:00.000Z-LGBT_WikiProject_Newsletter_(July_2008)","replies":[]}}-->
