- Some more homophobia in Talk:NAMBLA. Seems to be coming to a consensus, but worth keeping an eye on… — OwenBlacker 14:19, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
- Homoerotic art is being arbitrarily redefined as hetero-erotic and deleted from articles on Köçek and Pederasty. Also, the Peter Lamborn Wilson article has just been categorized in Category:Pedophilia. All of these issues relate to age-structured homosexuality. Haiduc 22:46, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
- Pederasty in the modern world Trying to avoid a tug of war with another editor. A third (or fourth or fifth) opinion would be very welcome. Haiduc 01:24, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
- Heterophobia - An anon user is repeatedly inserting POV claims that heterophobia is rampant among "gynosupremacist" lesbians. Bearcat 03:07, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
- Matthew Shepard. Previously, User:SpinyNorman re-wrote the article and tried to delete the hate crime category. Recently, the article has taken a more NPOV turn, but vigilance is still needed.
- Batman again. A motivated user ("the gay thing is ofending" and "don't spoil this one for us") first deleted all references to a gay reading of the comic, and then changed tack and went on a full scale "pedophilia" assault. He has belabored the article beyond recognition at his point, perhaps to make reverts awkward. Haiduc 04:40, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
- Is Westboro Baptist Church a "cult"? Guanaco 03:02, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
- Why do you ask? Did it say that in the article at some point? I don't think it is ever appropriate for a Misplaced Pages article to state, "X is a cult," since cult has become an inherently negative term. It's certainly legitimate to say, "Group A claims that X is a cult," though. Is there a specific part of the WBC article that needs attention? - AdelaMae 02:47, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
- Cisgender is a kind of obscure term that's fairly important to trans issues. The problem is that there aren't many good references online, and it's hard to find them without access to a good database or queer studies journals. There's somebody threatening to AfD it because of the lack of Google hits, even though there are a few good references already named on the page. Help out with some academic references, maybe? Dave 02:06, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
Requests for comment
- Talk:Barbara Amesbury: If a transwoman was already notable before her transition, how can we handle her competing desires to retain credit for public accomplishments dating from before her transition, while simultaneously not being outed as a transwoman against her will?
- Peppermint Patty and its Talk page: Trouble dealing with the characterization of Peppermint Patty's relationship with Marcy.
- Pederasty in the modern world; Material of long standing broken out of overlong Pederasty article and set up in its own article is challenged by a user. It would be good to have some people familiar with the topic look over things to make sure that one bias is not replaced by another bias. In particular there is disagreement over integrating conflicting definitions, one more general and another more restrictive.

Relevant user conduct disputes
- 71.143.3.205 (talk · contribs) - has repeatedly added Category:Gay, lesbian or bisexual people to articles on serial killers. Many are already filed in Category:LGBT serial killers (which is a potentially problematic category itself), but the user has also applied the category to some articles which contain no indication in either the article or its references that the person ever identified or was identifiable as LGBT, other than a generalized aura of deviant sexuality.
- Aidan Work (talk · contribs) - states at his user page that he hates homosexuals and transsexuals. There is an RfC (Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/Aidan Work) on his behaviour which LGBT wikipedians might like to comment on. Adam 21:50, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
- 69.22.98.162 (talk · contribs) - persistently adding homophobic POV to articles about historical people who may have been LGBT. Also adding homophobic disinformation to articles on pederasty and Ancient Greece. —Guanaco 02:04, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
- WritersCramp (talk · contribs) - "I am a proud homophobic!" See Misplaced Pages:Requests for comment/WritersCramp for details. —Guanaco 23:20, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
