3rd Gender and 3rd Gender?
Looking at some of the traditions and court decisions in South & SE Asia, sometimes I wonder what would be appropriate on this template if *either* of the following became true in a country that recognizes 3rd gender: 1) 3G-3G marriages are legalized in addition to M-F marriages 2) 3G-3G, 3G-M & 3G-F marriages are legalized but M-M and F-F are not.

 * If a SS couple can marry if one of hem declares themself to be 3G, then yes. If not, I don't see how it would be particularly relevant. I'd need to see examples. — kwami (talk) 23:40, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Thailand vs. Saudi Arabia.
Just to check, at this point Thailand and Saudi Arabia are at the same point in regards to this template, right? Naraht (talk) 20:28, 4 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Do we not have even minimal recognition in Thai? If not, then yes: we don't list countries where SSM is criminalized. — kwami (talk) 23:46, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Israel
The dispute at the Israel article affects where we place Israel in this template. (The problem I have is that they're claiming that you can now get married "in" Israel because you can get married in Utah remotely, so we now have SSM in Israel.) No RS that registered SSM there fully counts as marriage. (I don't know if it does or not, though it looks like the rights have increased recently.) — kwami (talk) 23:44, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Utah is not in Israel. Credit to them for a novel use of technology to help people get round bureaucratic nonsense, but it's clearly still a foreign marriage. Jdcooper (talk) 23:50, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
 * The ref there, which seems well-researched, says that registration of a foreign marriage supplies "all" the rights of marriage (unlike common-law marriage, the other option, which affords only "most" of the rights of marriage). I'll resurrect the old foreign-recognition section of this template. — kwami (talk) 19:43, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Mount Athos

It is a Greek territory with its own laws. It has even more population than Niue! What's the point of not naming something that is true? --DaddyCell (talk) 20:35, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Sort by continent?
As the list is getting longer, I'm wondering if it would make sense to sort the marriage section of the template by continent (or some other measure). Could link the continents' wikis e.g. Asia and Europe  ~Malvoliox  (talk &#124; contribs) 16:52, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that would improve the template, just make it busier and more convoluted. Jdcooper (talk) 00:47, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

Where's Nepal?
Where's Nepal? The Supreme Court of Nepal had recently legalized same-sex marriage in the country. 36.76.91.208 (talk) 10:00, 13 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Citation? Last I heard they had yet to issue a ruling, and don't know if the ruling itself would mean legalization. — kwami (talk) 15:40, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
