Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Stephen Schwartz.

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Same-sex marriage with this edit, without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 08:20, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Hello, Jim1138.
 * I don't quite understand why you reverted my edit on same-sex marriage. No content was removed, I moved or added content but I didn't remove any. Jedi Friend (talk) 09:05, 21 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Well, you removed two citations from the 2013 paragraph here and did not leave an wp:edit summary as to why. If you only moved them, I would think you should "reuse" the citations. See Help:Footnote, specifically WP:REFNAME. Please, use an edit summary. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:12, 21 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Please wp:ping me and others to keep the thread on one page. Preface your talk with (for me / leave off the tlx) add your comment, sign and save all three with the same save page. Otherwise the ping may not go out. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 09:14, 21 May 2016 (UTC)


 * , I moved both citations to same-sex marriage. Excuse me for not using an edit summary, I'll try to always use one from now on. Jedi Friend (talk) 09:21, 21 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Is the citation valid for that 2013 section? If so, it should have a cite too. You can "reuse" a citation: then . Note the slash "/". If the name has a space, enclose in quotes -  Order / placement of the original / resuse cite is not important. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:27, 21 May 2016 (UTC)


 * I see. Thank you Jedi Friend (talk) 09:31, 21 May 2016 (UTC)


 * There is a really annoying option in Preferences/Editing - Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary I have them checked and I can't leave a blank edit summary. Although, as editing a section prefills the ES box, you can edit w/o an ES for that. Agravating, but I add ESs. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 09:57, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 09:11, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia
Hi, WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!

Same-sex marriage in BIOT
Hello, Jedi Friend.

I was hoping you could review my findings in regards to the legality of same-sex marriage in the British Indian Ocean Territory. First, a document form the United States Navy, clearly stating that same-sex marriage is legal in Diego Garcia with the caveat that one of the parties of the union would be transferred off base http://www.public.navy.mil/bupers-npc/reference/milpersman/1000/1300Assignment/Documents/1300-314.pdf Second, the Overseas Marriage (Armed Forces) Order 2014, which applies to British personnel in the territory http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukdsi/2014/9780111108802 I appreciate any feedback that you may have. Andrew1444 (talk) 16:55, 10 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi, Andrew
 * From my perspective, there seems to be nothing stopping same-sex couples from getting married in the territory. The document from the US Navy confirms that. The Overseas Marriage (Armed Forces) Order 2014 also confirms it. I have no idea, however, if US military personnel may marry UK personnel. I saw you also asked User:Ron 1987. Maybe we should wait for his opinion? Jedi Friend (talk) 16:53, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I prepared a stub for a new page, "Same-sex marriage in the British Indian Ocean Territory" in my sandbox, and I am prepared to make necessary changes in other articles. Do you believe it would be appropriate for me to do so? Andrew1444 (talk) 00:37, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, I think it would. Jedi Friend (talk) 16:32, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

Liechteinstein poll
Hi, you added this poll, but looking at the source, it looks rather like a simple (non-scientific) internet poll where online readers can simply click. See also the archive of previous polls. I guess we should not include it on Wikipedia? SPQRobin (talk) 15:17, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi Robin, yes I thought of not adding it at first for that exact reason (not to mention that online readers could simply use different devices to vote several times). However, I still thought it was interesting to include it on the page, because it's the first opinion poll (that I've found at least) where Liechtensteiners are asked about their opinions on same-sex marriage. I also looked at the archive of the previous polls (like you suggested) and saw that polls cannot be answered anymore after a week's time, meaning that a big portion of those answering have to be regular readers and thus probably live in Liechtenstein and are familiar with the newspaper. Should I maybe add a sentence mentioning that the poll is a simple internet poll and not a scientific one? Jedi Friend (talk) 15:48, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Yeah, if we're going to include it, we should add a clear disclaimer. Thanks, SPQRobin (talk) 23:31, 28 October 2017 (UTC)

compromise edit
Please see the compromise edit done in LGBT Rights in India and let me know here what your thoughts are before reverting I think this is an edit we can both agree on, it was reworded and clarified.Russianvodka (talk) 21:21, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Yes, I think it's fine. I need to apologise; you were right. Surgery is only allowed in Tamil Nadu and Kerala, not in the whole county. I also added this source to the page as it contains a good resume of the status of transgender people in India. Cheers Jedi Friend (talk) 12:36, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

Same-sex union laws around the world

PRRI edits - incorrect error margin
I noticed that you have recently made a number of edits (like this one or this one) that add and update state-by-state PRRI polling results.

Unfortunately, the margin of error number that you're using – 0.4% – for all of the state-by-state issues polls is incorrect. I am assuming that you got it from the website's Methodology page. That's problematic for two reasons. First, that margin applies to the U.S-wide demographic surveys (71,197 participants in 2017), and not the so-called issues subsample (40,017 participants). The U.S.-wide issues sample had a reported margin of error of 0.6%.

More important, that margin only applies to the U.S.-wide survey data. State-by-state results necessarily involved many fewer survey participants (fewer than 200 in states like AK or ND; more than 3000 in CA and TX). The margins of error will be larger on the state-by-state results&mdash;potentially much larger for the smaller-state surveys.

Can you go through and remove the incorrect margins, please? TenOfAllTrades(talk) 13:47, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

ESEAP Conference 2018
Hello Jedi Friend,

I’m Irvin from PhilWiki Community, a member of the Communication Committee of the ESEAP Conference. ESEAP Conference 2018 is a regional conference for Wikimedia communities throughout the ESEAP region: ESEAP stands for East, Southeast Asia, and Pacific. Taking place in Bali, Indonesia on 5–6 May 2018, this is the first regional conference for these Wikimedia communities.

East and Southeast Asia and the Pacific are the most under-represented regions within the Wikimedia community. There is a significant number of Wikimedia contributors in our regions, yet we continue to struggle in establishing a well-managed community. This conference will bring participants from various ESEAP communities together in order to better understand the issues and to look for solutions. It also aims to connect people of the Wikimedia movement within ESEAP regions, to share ideas, and to build regional collaborations that are impossible to achieve through online communication.

We’ve got a lot of participation from several countries, but we’re lacking from your country. As we need more participants from your country, we believe that your contribution and participation would be a valuable asset to the success of this event. If you would like to participate in the conference, please do fill the form as soon as possible (by April 5, 2018) and we’ll inform you if you get selected for the conference.

Thank you and we hope to see you soon. --Filipinayzd 01:37, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Concering categories
I have 2 questions please First Sophus Thalbitzer is about a straight ally doctor who like Evelyn Hooker helped to decriminalise homosexuality in Denmark His categories are only LGBT history in Denmark But i added the categories of sexual orientation and psychology and the one of sexual orientatiin and science just like those of Evelyn Hooker ones. So should Evelyn Hooker be added to LGBT history in the US category Should Evelyn hooker and dophus trablitzer both be added to the category of LGBT activists in the us and in denmark resoectively Since that category contains a lot of LGBT allies and friends and scientists or what?

Second the page Lesbian Movement (Denmark) is in the category of LGBt history in denmark It is an lgbt assiciation that is defunct now Should it be put in LGBt assiciatii's in denmark category or what Or be created in a new categor of defunct lgbt association in the denmark as i qaw this category with many associatiins Or what what do u think Sorry for the bother again This may sound stupid and unnecessary for some But it is so important and improving believe me AdamPrideTN (talk) 01:48, 16 August 2018 (UTC)

Same-sex marriage in Norway
I always follow ur great helpful updates daily thank you so much for everything I am translating this page into arabic now I have a question please in the page Same-sex marriage in Norway like the pages of finland and iceland although the registred partnership system was shut down after introducing same sex mariage have two big title which is one for registered partnerships and another for marriage unlike those on the pages of denmark and sweden and others that have a big  title of history that contains undertitles of both For example the page of same sex marriage in luxembourg and belguim has the history title, but the eegistered partnership was not shut down by martiage laws So which is which Is the title history better even though other forms of recognition are still operational and those countries that now only have marriage is it wise to live it in separate titles what do u think Hope u understood what i mean? Hope u see to it and make edits

Also concerning marriage statstics Here a more recent update for it hope it is useful for u and that u edit the statistics part of marriage in the page of norway https://www.statista.com/statistics/588962/same-sex-marriages-in-norway/ AdamPrideTN (talk) 04:32, 18 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much! Personally, I don't really mind if the title is "History" or simply "Registered partnerships". The important thing is that readers can easily understand. I think what is meant with "History" is more of a background, so (legislative) events before marriage was legalised, and not necessarily past laws that aren't in effect anymore. As for the statistics, thank you very much! I'll go add them immediately. Jedi Friend (talk) 07:56, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

History tiltles
Hi yes but Dont u think for countries that has now only marriage as a recognition process And had civil union registered partnership but not anymore like most nordic ones While other countries and jurisdictions offer more than one form so in that it can be titles of separate marriage and partnerships Its stupid i know but more clear and accurate Dont u think?? Bcos like that it is not clear I asked other readers by facebook and they all said its confusing and ur suggestion is better So what do u think?? And sorry for disturbing u Hope if there are any updates i will be able to give them to u with references AdamPrideTN (talk) 16:16, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

Concerning saint helena
Hi I don't know if this could be hopeful for an update or content concerning LGBT rights in Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha or Same-sex marriage in Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha As it says

In the four years before the Same-Sex Marriage Act came into force in March 2014, 36 couples in the area entered into civil partnerships.

In the four years after, 2014 to 2017, there have been no new civil partnerships at all.

Jimmy Morales: «Guatemala believes in life and in the family based on the marriage of men and women» Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales reiterated his opposition to abortion and same-sex marriage, two days before a demonstration in favor of a bill that increases penalties for women who abort and dismantles the LGTBI social engineering.

9/1/18 1:10 PM

( El Nuevo Diario / InfoCatólica ) " Guatemala and our Government believe in life . Our Government and Guatemala believe in the family based on the marriage of men and women, "the president proclaimed before the media.

The Congress has already approved in the second debate (of the three necessary besides the writing and approval by articles) the initiative 5272, the law "For the protection of life and the family".

It promotes the "right to life," the "institution of marriage between a man and a woman," as well as the "freedom of conscience and expression," as well as the " right of parents to educate and guide their children. and to train them in the field of sexuality ».

Article 2 of the initiative defines sexual diversity as "the set of thoughts, tendencies and practices by which certain groups of society adopt a sexual behavior different from heterosexuality and incompatible with the biological and genetic aspects of the human being ".

In addition, it establishes that the nuclear family is constituted by "the father, the mother and the children who live with them or who are under their power".

But a report in Liberia’s BushChicken.com describes the bill differently — as a proposal to make same-sex intercourse a felony. Under current Liberian law, it is a misdemeanor.

About Recognition of same-sex unions in Poland
Hi Sorry but the law and constitution specefically without doubt ban same sex marriages and uses man wome The law was not striken down by the suoreme or constitutional court of the country The statuoary ban still exist and as u know u doubt that the right conservative parliament and goverment will never change the law nor accept itvesides the same marriage was not recognised so

Is it wise to assume as many did like in marriages ban or recongnition in europe or european union pages that poland no longer still has a constitutional marriage ban I think it does have and will have it So editing wrongly other pages on that is wrong? Should we revert them to point that poland still has the ban it dasnt striken down or changed u know What do u think? Thank u AdamPrideTN (talk) 01:56, 18 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi. The court ruled that the wording was vague and didn't in itself ban same-sex marriage. It's true that by looking at the official English translation, one might think that the wording is clear and bans marriage, but I'm guessing that the Polish version is not as clear-cut (sadly I can't speak Polish). Of course, you are right, in that the statutory ban is still in effect, and legislators will not legalise marriage anytime soon. But, as it stands, Poland doesn't have a constitutional ban.

 * Thanks, but I've decided to completely stay out of this. Also, Kwami, I noticed you reverted a change on the Same-sex marriage page concerning the Mexican state of Nuevo León. Just wanted to let you know that the Supreme Court issued its ruling in the action of unconstitutionality. Same-sex marriage has just been legalised in Nuevo León (just like Chiapas, Jalisco and Puebla). Cheers. Jedi Friend (talk) 09:12, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

Yes, I saw that source. But Mexican SC rulings don't change the law as US SC rulings do. Two other sources I found say that the SC ruling requires the NL legislature to change the law and legalize SSM. In other states, my understanding is that the law does not change until the legislature acts, so it seems dubious to say that SSM is now legal in NL when sources contradict each other. Have you found any record of people actually getting married? (If you respond, please ping me or respond to the NL thread on the SSM talk page.) — kwami (talk) 20:01, 20 February 2019 (UTC)


 * @User:Kwamikagami. I have to assume those two sources are wrong. Mexican law is very complex, and the Supreme Court does indeed have very limited judicial jurisdiction, but it does have the power to completely strike down a state law, via the so-called action of unconstitutionality process. Three other states (Jalisco, Puebla and Chiapas) have had their marriage bans struck down in such a way, even though none of them has explicitly repealed it from state law. I usually read Rex Wockner's blog when it comes to Mexico (mostly because their legal system is so complicated and somewhat bizarre), and it's very informative. Jedi Friend (talk) 13:58, 21 February 2019 (UTC)

That's very helpful, Jedi! Two issues, though: (1) why do we not include Oaxaca? and (2) it sounds like File:World same-sex adoption laws.svg needs to be amended to include all of Mexico.

From our Oaxaca article, it sounds like only 2 cities allow SSM. I wouldn't quibble about the longer wait time if the result is marriage and not a CU, so I'd think dots for those cities would be warranted, at least on the world map where we indicate individual cities. But if it's only cities, why does Wockner not mention Queretaro, where the majority of the pop can get married locally? Something doesn't add up. I wonder, Wockner's Oaxaca article is from August, so our article should've been updated by now. But when it says "Oaxaca", is he misunderstanding it to mean the state when it's the city? Indeed, we use that same source to justify saying Oaxaca City allows SSM w/o amparo. I'll go ahead and add dots for the two cities to the world SSM map and all of Mexico to the adoption map. If you think I'm wrong (e.g. it should be all of Oaxaca as Wockner says), please ping me. — kwami (talk) 19:08, 21 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Yeah, Oaxaca has also bothered me, but I think it's a good faith error on Wockner's part. The article in question is quite ambiguous about whether it's Oaxaca the state or the city, but at the top it states "Oaxaca/Capital", which gives it away. As for adoption, as I understand it, the situation is similar to same-sex marriage. In September 2016, the Supreme Court issued a ruling similar to the June 2015 marriage ruling. It didn't strike down state laws, but created jurisprudence against them and ordered every court in the country to rule in favour of couples seeking adoption rights (when they apply via the amparo process). And like marriage, certain states have already complied, while others are being stubborn and delaying as much as possible. As far as I know, the only way to actively force a state to legalize marriage (or adoption) is through the action of unconstitutionality process. The amparo process bounds the state to act and change the law, but as we've seen the state can easier delay or downright ignore it. There've been cases in Nayarit and Quintana Roo where couples were denied the right to adopt and had to go through the courts (which obviously ruled in their favour due to the 2016 ruling). Personally, I wouldn't colour all of Mexico on the adoption map until every state has finally decided to comply or if a national law is passed. I have nothing against showing the Oaxaca, Querétaro or Zacatecas cities, though. Jedi Friend (talk) 20:28, 21 February 2019 (UTC)

Okay, I've reverted my change to the adoption map.

For the SSM map, when the IACHR ruling came out I didn't bother to stripe Mexico because I thought that would be redundant w the domestic situation, which we never bothered to stripe for. (Technically, Mexico could be striped green and dark gold for the SC decisions.) People have complained about the striping making Mexico look too busy. Do you think it adds any value for the reader, or is the old state-by-state blue/green clear enough? It's different in Ecuador and Chile, where the IACHR is having an effect. — kwami (talk) 20:52, 21 February 2019 (UTC)

Estonian recognition of foreign SSM
Hi Jedi,

Got a complicated explanation from Estonia. Enable your email through WP (I won't see be able towhat it is) and I'll forward it to you. Short answer, it's complicated and changes from ruling to ruling, but it doesn't seem to be a simple recognition of SSM as marriage. — kwami (talk) 07:48, 26 February 2019 (UTC)

It is used in Societal attitudes toward homosexuality and maybe others Hope you or anyone else fix it soon cos i'm unable to do so Thank you

AdamPrideTN (talk) 10:01, 25 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi Adam, sorry I couldn't answer earlier. Do you think the map should be changed? or should the legend be changed to reflect the map? It seems as though the map has used these colours since 2014, but then they were changed in January 2019. Apparently, User:Panda2018 0 changed the colours back earlier this month, but never edited Social attitudes toward homosexuality to reflect that. Personally, I think the current colours should be kept because most Wikipedia pages use them (even the Arabic Wikipedia (ar:المواقف الاجتماعية تجاه المثلية الجنسية)). And I'm pretty sure consensus would be required to change them. Jedi Friend (talk) 17:16, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Stick to sources
Thanks for your numerous contributions to articles LGBT rights in &lt;country name>. Please keep in mind Wikipedia's core principles of Verifiability, NPOV, and avoidance of original research. Do not substitute your own knowledge about, say, conversion therapy for what a source actually says, as you did for example, in this edit at LGBT rights in Cuba. Stick to what the sources say (and use cite them. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 16:52, 28 March 2019 (UTC)


 * I do apologise, and will avoid doing so in future, but I'm still confused as to why the entirety of my edit was undone. Jedi Friend (talk) 16:59, 28 March 2019 (UTC)


 * It needn’t have been the entirety of it and perhaps should not have been. I am mobile at the moment and it’s difficult to verify the entire edit. I made an assumption, perhaps too hasty a one, that if you ignored the source in this case, perhaps you had in the remainder of your edit as well. This kind of situation can be avoided by doing a series of incremental edits, instead of edits all over the article all at once. But that’s an editing style choice, not a guideline or recommendation. Be aware, though, that if you do it all in one, large, edit that that does increase the risk that the whole think might be reverted, as there is no easy way to just revert one piece of it that might be wrong. If I misconstrued the rest of your edit, I apologize. Mathglot (talk) 17:06, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

Reversion at LGBT rights in Cuba
When someone reverts an edit of yours, do not immediately revert back to your preferred version as you did in this edit at LGBT rights in Cuba. Instead, go to the article Talk page to discuss it. See WP:TALK and WP:BRD. Cordially, Mathglot (talk) 17:01, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

Venezuela constitutional ban on same a x marriage
Hello As i was reviewing bith venezueka pages of lgbt rights and recognitio' of same-sex unions It seems clearly that Same-sex marriage and de facto union constituionally banned since 1999

The Constitution of Venezuela, adopted in 1999, defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman, thus constitutionally banning same-sex marriage.[4] Article 77 of the Constitution reads as follows:[5]

Marriage between a man a woman, which is based on free consent and absolute equality of rights and obligations of the spouses, is protected. A stable de facto union between a man and a woman which meets the requirements established by law shall have the same effects as marriage.

Also, there is no legal recognition of same-sex couples explicitly in Venezuelan law.

Of course all of this is as yet because there are positive news about change but as u know with the crisis there and everything i think all of that will be delayed and i doubt gay marriage will be a priority there

so can u please fix this map

To reflect that Venezuela is also red too as both Paraguay and Bolivia

Thank you AdamPrideTN (talk) 05:15, 17 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Done. Thanks for having noticed. I believe a few years back there was some debate about Venezuela, because an English translation of the Constitution didn't use the wording "man-woman". Cheers, Jedi Friend (talk) 14:21, 17 May 2019 (UTC)

But is that a ban? It doesn't appear to say that marriage is between a man and a woman, only that marriage between a man and a woman is protected. So SSM is not protected? It could be read as a ban or not. I think what we need is a court case determining that the wording constitutes a ban, rather than us playing lawyer and deciding the issue for them. — kwami (talk) 23:05, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Ah, there's a thread already on Talk about a court case that determined there is not a constitutional ban, so I reverted. — kwami (talk) 23:16, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Same-sex marriage in Uruguay
Hello As usual just a mere suggestion When u can take a look https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrimonio_entre_personas_del_mismo_sexo_en_Uruguay

The Equevalent of the Same-sex marriage in Uruguay in Spanish which is a very good eich page that even has the table of votes of the senate and house of representatives along with many sourced infos about political support and public public opinion and statistics that can be searched too from the net and all That can help expand and update the english page. (NB : idk why that link for italian civil unions keeps showing up)

And oh also please i need some help

Please check my latest update on the adoption section in LGBT rights in Uruguay page This source did not want to work and the mi'ister promised legislative changes per sources I want to find did these changes were implemented or voted upon

Writing randomly in google here i found these words and this source

https://legislativo.parlamento.gub.uy/temporales/docu5820167745502.HTML

She said Ahora discutirán con el Parlamento modificaciones al Registro Civil. Hay un vacío legal que no nos permite hacer la inscripción, pero no podemos exponer a todas las personas a que deban hacer una acción de amparo. Entendemos que es mucho más apropiado dar un marco legal al Registro Civil", informó a Telenoche.

La jerarca aseguró que el tema será conversado con el Parlamento para ver de quién debe ser la iniciativa y que después de esto se "ajustará con la comisión correspondiente en donde estén todos los partidos políticos". Did she do it can u look up more please were there any changes implemented

I found this https://legislativo.parlamento.gub.uy/temporales/leytemp8080328.htm

Is it the legal modification did it pass is it the one? I dont think so. It has no date. Help please

Recognition of same sex relationships in Japan.
Hi there, Thank you for the update in chart, I agree that yours is more easy to read but what I was trying to express in the chart was how the number of partnerships is increasing hence having the time series. If that can be expressed in a chart in the format you have created, that's greate but for the time being, I'm going to revert it. Just to make sure that your work isn't lost, I've pasted it below for you as well. Paullb (talk) 05:44, 17 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi! I agree, I also like having a time series chart, but I feel as though the current one is a bit difficult to navigate around. Also, what bothers me a bit is the dates seem quite random. I think it would be better to have more generic dates, "2017", "2018", "2019", for example, rather than specific months. Unfortunately, I've been looking for quite a while now for such numbers and can't find anything. Which is why, I decided to use a chart which shows the latest available statistics, which can then be updated whenever new info is published, rather than a time series one. Jedi Friend (talk) 08:38, 17 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes, the dates do seem a bit random, it's bascially whenever Nijiro Diversity decides to do it. They are a pretty small organisation. I've looking forward to a big jump in the numbers with Osaka Prefecture and Yokohama City. Perhaps a staked line graph would be easier to read? I'm okay with just the year at the bottom of the chart. Paullb (talk) 04:11, 20 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi there, sorry to butt in, but I'm curious if it should perhaps be clarified on the page that the statistics come from the sporadically released reports from Niji Diversity? Many readers will likely not be aware that they're pretty much the only organisation that has been releasing statistics for all of Japan and might end up confused by the seemingly random dates. Deviantdreamer (talk) 20:21, 21 January 2020 (UTC)


 * , . I recently discovered that if you use the mobile version of wiki with a phone the names and numbers of each prefecture do not appear at all. I personally would much prefer to use the chart I proposed, with instead texts describing the increase in partnerships (which Paullb has removed for some reason). For example: "The number of partnerships certificates issued to same-sex couples has increased over the years, from 319 in late November 2018, 426 in April 2019, 617 in November 2019 to 759 in January 2020." I believe this would be much clearer and also friendlier for mobile users. Jedi Friend (talk) 16:22, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree that a blurb about Nijiiro would be useful and noting the sporadicness of the updates. I thought having a running textual description of the number of registered partners was getting a bit out of hand with the number of updates and wasn't really adding anything to the article, so I replaced it with a summary. If you feel the text descriptions added value, please bring them back Paullb (talk) 05:45, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

Alabama Map update
I have looked through the new 2019 employee handbook for montgomery, alabama and saw that they have changed: sexual attraction to sexual orientation and the addition of gender identity to the employment practices and hiring non-discrimination. This means that the montgomery city info in the alabama lgbtq protections page (done) and the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_and_counties_in_the_United_States_offering_an_LGBT_non-discrimination_ordinance still-to-do. I still need to change the SO and GI employment protections map in alabama and I'm kind of afraid to, I've never really edited visuals before. What program should I use, how do you usually do it or could you do it when you get the chance? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Owlyra (talk • contribs) 21:09, 21 January 2020 (UTC)

Yucatan
Hi!

AFAICT, the legislation to legalize SSM hasn't even been introduced into Congress, and won't be until next term at the earliest. So, AFAICT, there is no "legislation". The only thing that will be published is the bill changing the constitution. We have some RS's saying this will make SSM legal, and other RS's saying it won't. Once the bill is published, SSM will no longer be unconstitutional, but it will still be against the law. Yucatan will then be like the other 10 states where SSM is illegal. The question is whether the clerks will ignore the law and allow SSM anyway, as they do in Chihuahua and Chiapas. Some sources say yes, some say no. — kwami (talk) 19:42, 1 September 2021 (UTC)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics.  Schwede 66  09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
