Revision as of 18:49, November 3, 2008
I've created this following the discussion on the Homosexuality talk page. Some points:
- Clearly it's too long - at the moment I've put in most of the pages from Category:Homosexuality, but it should be pared down to just the most important pages before it's used anywhere.
- Ideally there would be a better picture - suggestions welcome.
- And as ever, any improvements to design or organisation will be much appreciated.

I've also added it to Homosexual rights advocacy temporarily, so we can see how it looks in situ.--CPalmer 07:17, 3 November 2008 (EST)
- That's long, long, long. Maybe you don't need to shoehorn in all of Conservative's "homosexuality and ____" pages. Corry 10:03, 3 November 2008 (EST)
- Completely agree, but I haven't read many of them so would rather someone else cut down the list. Would you be able to do it?--CPalmer 10:05, 3 November 2008 (EST)
- I think most of my opinions on these articles might not be appreciated. Try this- pick out what seem to be the main articles and link to those. If an article only consists of a quotation or two, then don't link it. If you go through Conservative's body of work you can probably quickly separate them- a number of these articles are short blurbs consisting only of a few quotations or advertisements for blogs he has quid pro quo linking agreements with (although I think some of these might be deleted).

- OK, I've done as you suggested - if anyone doesn't like it, they can always change it back. It's still on the long side, but then again there are a lot of pages to cover and its length is nothing compared to most of the pages it'll appear on.--CPalmer 13:35, 3 November 2008 (EST)
Make sure you avoid hiding any information which points out health hazards of homosexuality, including its mental health aspects. A quick link to the murder and suicide rate in the gay community would be a good thing to have.
Note that this is without prejudice to whether homosexuality is a cause or a response to social conditions, let alone a matter of choice. We just want readers to know what the prevailing conditions are. If cause and effect are controversial, let's explore the controversy. --Ed Poor Talk 13:49, 3 November 2008 (EST)
