Talk:LGBT rights in Slovakia

Untitled
The second half of the last paragraph seems extremely biased towards gays and against the Slovak government, could someone with some knowledge on the subject correct it?Elmer Clark 23:22, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

i agree. has been done. andrej86.

in my last edit i removed the last remnants of non-neutrality by snipping the word "fact" from what was only a general statement referring to sexuality concealment, and removed the use of some comparatives (e.g. "very", "quickly") which did indeed bias the article uncessarily toward gay people.

i suggest the neutrality disclaimer now be removed. tinot

update: i removed it myself... tinot

'Dispearse'
This English word doesn't exist. It's presumably meant to be 'disperse', but even this isn't correct in this context. People who write English-language Wikipedia articles need to have a good command of English!213.127.210.95 (talk) 22:58, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned references in LGBT rights in Slovakia
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of LGBT rights in Slovakia's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "bbc": From LGBT rights in Latvia:  From LGBT history in Russia:  From LGBT history in Poland:  From Recognition of same-sex unions in Slovakia:  From Lithuania:  From LGBT rights in Germany:  From Same-sex marriage:  From LGBT rights in Poland: </li> </ul>

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 16:35, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

Regarding the public opinion table
Regarding the table in the Public opinion and demographics section.

As much as I appreciate the collective effort to document as much information as humanely possible, I find it unnecessary.

While the table does provide some raw information and statistics, they themselves provide no useful information to the reader. Not only do the the numbers barely change within the 15-year time span the table covers, but many of the changes could reasonably fit within the range of a statistical error. It is not helped by the fact that while the table has 12 rows, only 3 of the 16 columns actually make use of the majority of rows.

The table takes up much more space on the page than is warranted, while providing little to no useful information to the reader. If anything, it only makes the article a bigger mess than it already is. Raw data like this should not be included or should be split into a different article, as per PLOT.

As such, I believe the table should be removed. Similarly, I believe much of the section should be reviewed and reworked to only include relevant information and be easier to read.

If there are any objections, please do reply!

Thanks! — Soggy Pandas (talk) 18:13, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Blood donation
The paragraph currently reads "Gay and bisexual people are prohibited from donating blood if they have had unprotected sexual intercourse within one year." and the survey for the donors is linked. This is not correct.

Reasoning: Question #24 of this survey follows in Slovak: "Pre mužov: Mali ste posledných 12 mesiacov sexuálny kontakt s mužom? " Which translates to: "For men: Have you had sexual contact with a man within the last 12 months?" If the donor (male) answers 'yes' to this question, he is prohibited from donation. The sexual orientation is not questioned by the survey, neither there is a word about the sexual intercourse being protected or not.

Suggestion: Modify paragraph text e.g. "Men who had sexual contact with another man within the last 12 months are prohibited from donating blood." Qetuol (talk) 21:00, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
