Talk:White Party/Archive 1

SELECTED PORTIONS FROM TALK PAGE'S PREVIOUS INCARNATION (Inception through 11 November 2008)
It might be desirable to add a line stating that a "white party" may refer to any party in which all white attire is the norm, but I think you're missing the point of this article. It is intended to describe The White Party, not white parties in general. The White Party is an event (actually a collection of similar events held in different locations around the same time) that is specifically LGBT and has a specific history, as outlined in the article. If you really find it necessary to describe Diddy's white parties, perhaps you should propose a new article describing white parties and see if anyone thinks that they are a large enough phenomenon to merit one. 67.116.126.226 (talk) 08:20, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll take your word that this article is about "The White Party," it is therefore mislabeled. I will reenter it under "The White Party" and remove it for "White Party." It seems that will be more accurate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.253.191.171 (talk) 00:54, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

The Move
The LGBT Circuit Party, The White Party, can now be found at the aptly name The White Party. It has been pointed out that "The White Party" is a particular circuit party, and "White Parties" are a type of party that have no affiliation with the LGBT community, so this has now been rectified.

 * There is no consensus for this page move, and it has been reverted twice by two different editors. Please do not attempt it again. In addition, pages should not be moved by the cut-and-paste method, and Wikipedia articles do begin with the definite article "The" except in certain circumstances. (See Naming conventions (definite and indefinite articles at beginning of name) for explanation and exceptions.) --MCB (talk) 09:01, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Two different editors counting yourself... The article is currently mislabeled since there is undeniably a difference between "The White Party" and "white parties." This is evidenced by the fact that "The White Party" is a LGBT circuit party and "white parties" are just a type of party where guests dress in white. Who is disputing this? That is common knowledge (that is sourced on this page), and I was revising the article to reflect that and avoid confusion...


 * Put it to a vote. A decision will be made by 20-Nov.-08 12:00amESTReetnuloV (talk) 15:01, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
