List of pre-Stonewall LGBT actions in the United States

 * Nominator(s): Otto4711 (talk) 21:33, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe that although it's a new list, it meets all of the FL requirements and addresses an aspect of American history that is under-represented both in Wikipedia in general and in the Featured material specifically. Note that the list is going to be featured on the main page as a Did you know... item on June 28. Appearing on the front page is a vandal magnet, so while tomorrow's edits may look like edit warring, it will likely be vandal-fighting instead. Otto4711 (talk) 21:33, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Wow, the article made it through the front page with no vandalism. Hope that's not because people think it's a boring topic... Otto4711 (talk) 05:49, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Sources look good. Dabomb87 (talk) 19:46, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * What makes http://www.tangentgroup.org/history/articles/motorcade.html reliable? Dabomb87 (talk) 16:53, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * It's a reprint of a magazine article that was published by a homophile group. The magazine, Tangents, is described in various reliable sources as having high standards of editorial quality and control. I can back it up with another citation if you think it's needed.

 * A backup source would be nice. The problem with reprints is that there could be transcription errors, content changes, etc. Thanks, Dabomb87 (talk) 18:38, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Second source added. The other references in the same item also back up the cited information. Otto4711 (talk) 18:52, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Support, all issues resolved. Good raise  01:19, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
