Talk:Walt Whitman Bridge

Let's talk about categorization
I notice that that this and several other bridges are beset with many different views on how they should be categorized. The issue of category duplications has been discussed for many months at Wikipedia_talk:Categorization. I am hoping that people can take a look at Wikipedia_talk:Categorization Thanks. -- Samuel Wantman 09:01, 11 September 2005 (UTC)

The Italian Job
Which version of the film had the bridge in, the 1969 version or the 2003 remake? The current text links to the original film, which seems less likely to me. The Wednesday Island (talk) 13:56, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Controversy about naming the bridge
When the new "Gloucester City Bridge" was under construction there was a considerable amount of controversy about naming it after the famous poet Walt Whitman. Although Whitman's stature as arguably the most celebrated poet in American history wasn't questioned, there was a great deal of objection by various Roman Catholic organizations about honoring a man who may have been homosexual. The Delaware Port Authority, backed by a coalition of educators, stuck to their guns. In the decades since the bridge was built the fact that Whitman is gay is now accepted by nearly all scholars and historians. 68.81.95.108 (talk) 12:48, 20 December 2014 (UTC)buddmar

This controversy was discussed in detail in a book about Philadelphia's LGBT history, called "City Of Sisterly And Brotherly Loves." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.80.192.101 (talk) 01:31, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

Statue of Whitman
Should there be a separate article for the statue of Whitman? --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 20:07, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, and if I could find my book on the NY World's Fair of 1939 there probably already would be one. Carptrash (talk) 21:12, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
