Call for Arrest[edit]

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-17032804 - I'm not sure how much of this is relevant or necessary, but a workshop Kasha was setting up for gay activists was recently raided by the Ugandan Minister for Ethics and Integrity, Simon Lokodo, who also called for her arrest; she fled before that could happen and is presumably in hiding.Weirdtheory (talk) 01:06, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional tag[edit]

I think the article doesn't read promotional, and wonder if the tag would be on the page if the individual weren't a queer woman of color. I want to take it off. Any discussion? Likeanechointheforest (talk) 20:31, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I was the one who added it during a copyedit, and it wasn't because she's LGBT or non-white. It's the sentences

Nabagasera has continued the fight for gay rights in Uganda. Under FARUG, she has fought to decriminalize homosexuality in Uganda by circumventing the Ugandan anti-homosexuality bill.

which sound like something from a puff piece. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 20:45, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that "Nabagasera has continued the fight for gay rights in Uganda" reads promotional, and I don't think the sentence is necessary to the content in any case. If we cut that, and sourced the second sentence, I think the article would be fine. I realise that there is a reference at the end of the paragraph, but it's not strong (event publicity) and doesn't in fact back up the statement "She refers to it as a Nuremberg law ... " which it looks as if it's supporting. Tacyarg (talk) 21:24, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Adding that "and set a benchmark for human rights in Uganda" reads promotional too and is not supported by the reference, which is a link to the judgement in the case. Also, cannot see why title is listed in infobox as Grand Master - no other mention on page. There is plenty of coverage on her in reliable sources (I've just added two) so would be good to make sure everything is sourced and is phrased neutrally.
