List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people edit

Work has been ongoing to clear up this list, or lists, since October 2006. It has been converted to tables, vastly expanded, given a decent lead, see also section and images of people entered down one side. We are still working on formatting the references for entries and ensuring the sources are reliable, and are working to update the list with those who are elegible (please help!), so please ignore those issues. However, this is simple grunt work, and an FLC seems a real possibility sometime in the next few months. Advice on how to get there would be appreciated, particularly regarding what should be on the main page, it seems kinda empty. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 05:18, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 13:18, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The images need to be looked at and possibly redone. As examples, Guy Burgess is unsourced. Alan Turing is copyrighted (there's not nearly enough critical commentary to be able to justify fair use her). Rupert Everett gives no indication that the image is actually free and doesn't state who the copyright holder is. Also, lots of the references need to be improved. For examples, Mark Levengood is cited to another Wikipedia. Steve Kmetko has a link titled "www.findarticles.com". No article title, no name of the original publisher, no author, no original publishing date, no date of retrieval. ShadowHalo 12:11, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I did say in my original message that the references were an ongoing thing. I didn't know about the images though, I will go have them sorted out. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 15:25, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I am responsible for adding the images. A few images have been added after me. I did check the images before I added them and I will check them again. I did see a list recently where the images were smaller (see List of recordings preserved in the United States National Recording Registry) and I really think it looks better. Perhaps a change might be in order with size as well? I'll be looking at the images ASAP. *Exeunt* Ganymead | Dialogue? 00:19, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I just removed a number of images. Tomorrow I will go in and see if I can find some free images to add, so the articles don't look so bare. *Exeunt* Ganymead | Dialogue? 01:20, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
