| Hey, ], it's that time of the month again (no not ''''']''''' — get your mind out of the gutter): time for another monthly edition of the ] ] newsletter from your ] ]. So much has been happening this month and I just can't wait to tell you all about it!!! | |||

| ===Alice and her harasser=== | |||
| Let's start with some good news: ] and the project lost the bothersome sock puppet who had been disrupting many articles we monitor, and now most of us can edit in relative peace. Congratulations, Alice, for being able to come out of semi-retirement. ], on the other hand, has gained an anonymous IP stalker who seems to be more Catholic than the Pope and who has a hard-on for the ]. We seem to have a sort of ] thing going on here, which helps both to keep us in balance and on our toes <bright smiles all around>. | |||
| ===Harry Potter and his homosexual teacher=== | |||
| == October 2007 == | |||
| ] got ] this month, and was immediately adopted by our project. The international brouhaha surrounding this disclosure reached all the way to Wikiland, and his article was briefly locked due to homophobic vandalism (as well as well meaning editors who just couldn't believe that that nice man could possibly be gay). This is a wonderful article to add to your watchlist, and will surely give you hours of reverting fun on cold winter days. | |||
| {{{icon|] }}}Please stop. If you continue to ] Misplaced Pages{{{{{subst|}}}#if:Talk:X-Men: The Last Stand|, as you did to ]}}, you ''will'' be ] from editing. {{{{{subst|}}}#if:{{{2|}}}|{{{2}}}|}}<!-- Template:uw-vandalism3 --> <span style="color:#bfbfff">''']'''</span> '''<sup>(]/])</sup>''' 01:54, 16 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ==="My Fellow Americans"=== | |||
| On a more serious note, ] has suggested a new article series about LGBT rights in the United States, state by state. This ambitious topic will surely require many editors and a lot of research, but has the potential to add further prestige to our already prestigious project. | |||
| ===Same name, same sexuality: a riddle for the ages=== | |||
| ] (not the ], but the old gay one ... though they're actually both dead, now that I think about it) has also aroused passions here on Misplaced Pages, with editors opposing his sexuality being disclosed in his biography. The always helpful ] has thoughtfully provided any number of sources, but it is slow going getting his point across. Anyone want to lend a hand? | |||
| ===Beat writer arouses Irish guy=== | |||
| And speaking of passions, ] has inflamed the senses once again with editors, including administrator ], mounting a spirited defense to keep him as heterosexual as possible for Misplaced Pages purposes. Why? I don't know. Perhaps some of you can drop by the ] and ask your questions there. I feel certain a stimulating debate will ensue that will be enjoyed by all. | |||
| ===Love those Texas Longhorns=== | |||
| Did you know that one of our ], ], lost its shiny gold star? That was a shocker. It has been suggested that we turn our attention to it in an effort to restore it to its former glory. I took a peek, and it does need our help badly. For our American editors, it would seem almost a ] to edit it (not that I'm hinting....). | |||
| ===Point and Counterpoint=== | |||
| Though it was far too intellectual a debate for a mere cruise director like myself to take part in, ] was certainly a hot topic a week or two ago. The thrust of the debate was over inclusion in our project. Lots of good editors had lots of good opinions. For those too lazy to check out the discussion, we decided to leave it out for now. | |||
| ===Drudgery on offer=== | |||
| ] is, as always, short staffed and seemingly unloved. Wouldn't you feel better about yourself and the world in general if you took a few minutes to read one of the listed articles and offer some helpful advice? I know I'd feel better if you did. | |||
| | valign="top" | | |||
| ==="My Fellow Americans" redux=== | |||
| The article ] certainly raised eyebrows last week, especially when it was discovered that copyrighted content had been added to our article. Tragedy was averted at the last minute, though, when the original hosts of the article where the material had been pilfered agreed to make it ] Our thanks to them, whoever they are. Busy Bee that I am, I haven't had time to read it, but I'm sure it's sensational. | |||
| ===This month's Wiki stars=== | |||
| ] (a genre close to my heart, I must confess) writer ] has decided to spice up ] this month. Why not drop by and make your opinion heard? Joining her in this lofty aspiration are the articles ''''']''''' and ''''']'''''. I'm sure their main editors would welcome any comments (well, helpful ones, anyway) on the talk pages or the FAC discussions. And lest we forget, the ] became a ] Rah rah, siskumbah! ''Go, team, '''GO!!!!''''' | |||
| ===And the Oscar goes to...=== | |||
| Not content to run for ], plucky Bannon won a ]... whoops, I meant to say Ann is also getting more than her share of womanly attention on the Good Article list. Joining her on this exalted plane are ], ] and ]. Good articles indeed, and the last one mentioned just goes to show that one needn't admire the subject of an article to appreciate the effort put into making him worthwhile reading. What on earth ] ever saw in him I'll never know. Truly a riddle cloaked in an enigma and wrapped around a puzzle. | |||
| === Fresh faces to brighten our pages === | |||
| Though I may not be the first, let me extend a warm, LGBT Love Boat welcome to the 12 new members who joined us in October: ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], and ]! Whatever you choose to do here, I feel sure that your contributions will enhance our project to no end. And if they don't...well, let's just say that I'm not shy. | |||
| ===Leather and lace=== | |||
| On a personal note, your already overworked cruise director is being cyberly whipped almost daily by ], who desperately wants to get the ] copy edited and used as a replacement for the current one. It's such a ... err, stimulating topic that I am sure many of you will want to join the copy editing fun. Jump right in, folks! It's so lonely copy editing it all by my lonesome! | |||
| ===Late breaking news=== | |||
| A little birdie just whispered in my ear that our noble ] was delisted from the ] due to inactivity. When asked how this scandalous turn of events could have occurred, the answer I received was "we suck at stuff like that". Well. In the first place, I disagree that ] should be considered a negative, but to each his or her own. In the second place, I have full confidence that we can and will collaborate with other projects in the future. So let's not view this as a setback (even though it is), but rather a ''challenge to improve'' (and good Lord, I sound almost ]). | |||
| ===Champagne dreams and caviar kisses=== | |||
| ] | |||
| Lastly, the holidays are rapidly approaching. Our ] cousins are currently getting ready to slaughter masses of ] in an effort to show their gratitude and generally peaceful demeanor, and those of the ] persuasion, trendsetters that they are, celebrated a bit early this year. I'm sure all us foreigners will join together in wishing them all a very happy ] on their respective holidays, both already celebrated and forthcoming... though I would hope somebody would enlighten me as to why they don't celebrate it on the same day. I was awake all last night trying to figure that one out. | |||
| |} | |||
| ----- | |||
| In the spirit of this peculiarly North American holiday, let me take a moment to thank all of our editors for their contributions to this project. It's people like you who make people like me...well, a ]! May all your Wiki days be bright, and may your ] never turn into a ]. | |||

| Our dear ], never a stranger to controversy, recently decided to delve into the ] of the ], and what did he discover? King James had more than appreciative eyes for ] Naturally, Haiduc felt the need to share this news with the community, but instead of being praised for his scholarship, he was reviled. In fact, one rabid heterocentrist even rummaged around in his own wardrobe until he found an old pair of ] to play with. All seemed lost until astute editor ] noticed some odd postings and did some sleuthing of his own. The socks were uncovered, the ] was ] and readers the world over were able to learn that Good King James regularly ordered tube steak from the menu of the day. Thank you, Haiduc! Thank you, Jeff! And let Miss Julie add (for readers who ]) that ] tastes just like ]! | |||
| ] | |||
| <b id="news_britney">]</b><br> | |||
| Well, maybe it's not Miss Thang, herself, but it's the next best thing: ]! he stirs up just about as much controversy as his idol does, even here on Misplaced Pages. Though it's all a bit of a muddle, one of our editors hopes you can drop by the talk page and leave a message of hope for those battling the forces of obstructionism in that little corner of the Wiki World. It is so hard to spread enlightenment. As ] herself said, "You can lead a whore to culture, but you can't make her think". | |||
| <b id="news_gameshow">]</b><br> | |||
| Wallowing in cash from the latest , the powers-that-be have decided to sponser a little contest here to improve the articles, with a Grand prize of $100. Yeah. Just enough for a ] dinner for the family. Still, the thought is nice and the goal is noble, so we should support it. Our little Queer beehive has taken a look at what's on offer, and both the ] and ] are well represented. The ever useful ] has made a little list, which can be found ] (if that malignant bot hasn't archived it already, that is). So find a pal, roll up your sleeves and dive right in. Let's show this Encyclopedia just what Queers with firecrackers up their....err, I mean, let's show the others what we can do. | |||
| <b id="news_jonsi">]</b><br> | |||
| I can't pronounce his name, but he's awfully cute, he's deliciously foreign, and best of all...he's '''''GAY!''''' But he won't be for long, if ] have their way. A concerted effort has been under way for a while now, designed to neuter poor Jon (pretend I put a little accent thingy over that O) and make him into a sort of rockin' ]. So please watchlist this hunka man, and '''''keep him queer'''''! If anybody questions you, tell them "Miss Julie sent me". | |||
| ] | |||
| <b id="news_sequel">Everybody loves a sequel</b><br> | |||
| Readers not afflicted with ] will remember that last month we had a little story about ]. That proved so popular that we bring you the sequel: ] and his stalker. After a chance meeting at the ], this anonymous user took a shine to our Benjiboi, and has been showering him with attention on virtually every board on Misplaced Pages. Flattered though he is, Benjiboi finds the attention a bit distracting, and administrators have been seeking various remedies for this. It has proven difficult, as the stalker has an IP address that changes quicker than ] in a telephone booth. So perhaps some of you would like to watchlist Benjiboi's page, and lend a hand if you see some love letters from an 11 digit friend. I was actually thinking we should get Alice's harasser and Benjiboi's stalker together. Then we could have another sequel, sort of like ]. Any bets as to who would win?? | |||
| <b id="news_special">Not quite the second coming, but special just the same</b><br> | |||
| Let me be the first to give a warm, wet, Love Boat kiss (though not with tongue) to our newest Project members: ], ], ], ] and ]. Even in the month of our Saviour's birth, your popping into our Wikipedian lives is a blessed event indeed. As Jesus Himself said, ] He did say that, didn't he? I think he said it. In any event, if he was standing next to me now, I'm sure he'd say it, and add, "Happy homo editing!" | |||
| <b id="news_battle">Battle of the Misplaced Pages Stars!</b><br> | |||
| Indomitable ] is holding her own in Misplaced Pages's answer to ]: ] For four feverish weeks, she has mastered the challenges and not been eliminated from the competition. Drop by the FAC page and show Ann you love her....or give her the hook (I'm not supposed to tell you how to vote). Giving our plucky Ann reason to hope is the recent promotion of ]. If Miss Julie has her way, we will have the entire alphabet of Queerdom Featured here on Misplaced Pages soon! And I would be remiss if I did not give a warm, Lesbian salute to our own ], who showed Misplaced Pages with ] that even ] are no protection from the Love that dare not speak its name, and got a ] for her efforts. | |||
| Climbing the Misplaced Pages career ladder is ], who has not only written, but is now promoting ] to ]. Best of luck, Tim, and remember: there are no small parts, only small actors. We're sure you'll be trading that green circle for a gold star soon (assuming you get the green in the first place!). | |||
| ] | |||
| <b id="news_needelves">Santa needs elves</b><br> | |||
| Yes, I know: packages need buying, trees need trimming, egg nog needs drinking. The holidays make many demands on our time. It's ...well, it's a bitch, is what it is. So I wouldn't blame you for skipping this little section and putting off my request until next year. But...think of the children. Our future. They need quality information about the homosexual "lifestyle" if we are to ]. That's why I am asking you to drop by ] and give your meaning as to the efforts of your fellow gay Wikipedians. And think: in this season of kindness and good will to all, isn't it nice that I am pointing you to someplace where you can (in a Wikiloving way, of course) rip someone a new asshole? Think about it...and those children with their shiny, bright eyes, thanking you for contributing to their future. | |||
| Even more festively, consider joining in on the ] of our favorite articles. Here you can bandy about such words as "homophobia", "Right-wing Christian agenda" and my personal favorite, "just who do you think you're pushing around?!?!?". If you play your cards right, there might even be an ] for you. :-D | |||
| <b id="news_urgeappeal">Urgent Christmas appeal</b><br> | |||
| ] asked me to ask you to edit ] as part of the Collaboration Project. She's an old dead poet (Miss Bishop, not Tovojolo. I've never actually met Tovojolo. She's probably very young and attractive. Maybe somebody should ask if she's single), but she was a flaming homosexual long before most of us had even been conceived, so we owe her some respect. Tovojolo actually asked me for the last newsletter, but Miss Julie forgot. Bad Miss Julie. She was so busy boosting morale it just slipped right by her. ], maybe you need to ] again to get Julie back in line. | |||

| ] has attracted the attention of a group of....the more senior elements of our gay society. They disagree with our thesis that ] was the possible source of the term, and demand we change the article to reflect their contention that ] was the origin. The problem is, their source didn't check out. So we agreed to disagree. Well, we at the project did. They got kinda mad at us, said unkind things, and started edit warring. Though they are old, they are certainly quick, and could revert the article faster than my nimble fingers could press the undo button. To quote the divine Miss Parker, every time I saw the article on my watchlist, I thought to myself, ''"What fresh hell is this?"''. The page was protected by sympathetic administrators, but keeping an eye on it will keep Dorothy safe from ] | |||

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
