Talk:Gay-friendly

Updating the World Gay Travel Index to the 2018 version
The "List of Countries by their Gay Travel Index" is outdated. I'm not sure what version the current list is on, but the 2018 version is different.

Here is the new one:

We should work to update the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MaxGame5o (talk • contribs) 20:17, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

Where is Brazil in the list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2804:14C:6583:4F01:1550:1590:41BE:BEF7 (talk) 05:57, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

Request to remove Spartacus list and replace it with PEW Global Research
PEW research has a much more accurate statistics for gay-friendliness per country, as these are run by professional statisticians:

Spartacus list is extremely inaccurate. South Korea is higher in Gay-friendliness than the Philippines?!? Indonesia on the upper percentile of gay-friendliness? What data or ranking they got this from? The Philippines is a lot more gay-friendly than Thailand; No history of gay criminalization at any period, pre-colonial gay people held special privileges, majority of people more accepting towards it. Spartacus list is extremely inaccurate and deeply flawed.

Advice
I'm not sure why the gay-friendly business that are named, are named. I can't find any articles recommending these companies specifically and being fairly new to adding in Wikipedia, I'm torn between taking down the companies and adding more or updating to actual top-reommended companies. Advice appreciated. Emmgal8 (talk) 20:26, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * To better serve our readers I would focus on companies that already have articles written. I'm OK with the odd one here or there but I just added in R Family Vacations which is, IMHO, more helpful to readers to understand the subject. Banj e  b oi   07:50, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I've removed Egotour as the website no longer exists (well, it's certainly not for the business; peruse the URL at your own risk) so I assume the business no longer exists. I noticed this due to InternetArchiveBot's late (relative to when the URL was originally added) archive. It was added by an unregistered editor without a summary which makes me suspect advertising.

Q
Why is the Q missing in so many places? i.e. LGBT is shown rather than LGBTQ. --Rebroad (talk) 17:43, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Feel free to add it, this is Wikipedia, it belongs to you as much as it does the rest of us! I am sure it was not a conscious decision to exclude the Q. The Q was not added until a few years ago and the writer might have been referencing something that didn't have it added at the time it was written, I doubt it was left out in conspiracy, EVEN Lady Gaga left the 'Q' part out in her song "Born This Way"... --Billy Nair (talk) 01:22, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

The addition of Chechnya proves the fallacies with this list.
Between 25 August and 1 September Chechnya was added to the list. This is in line with the release of HBO series Welcome to Chechnya in Europe. The only "research" of this magazine is basically just watching a HBO documentary and declaring a region in Russia the worst. This cherry picking of anecdotes shouldn't be basis for a ranking. The same documentary could be made in Saudi Arabia and we would see similar treatment of gay people. This low quality data shouldn't be on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Halikular (talk • contribs) 05:48, 22 December 2020 (UTC) Halikular (talk) 06:07, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

I agree. Spartacus list should be removed and replaced with PEW Global Research. It is much more credible and accurate as this agency is run by professional statisticians:

us anti lgbt legislation
why does the list say the usa has no anti gay laws? it may not on federal level but it definitely does on state level Preussenfan123 (talk) 16:54, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Possible typos?
Pakistan's "equal age of consent" and Suriname's "HIV travel restrictions" numbers are shown as "01" instead of an ordinary 0 or 1. Is this supposed to be so, or is this a typo? Could someone who knows the real values please check it/change it if need be? Thank you. 46.166.88.58 (talk) 11:02, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
