Undue weight to anti-semitism section

Currently 49.2% of the body text of this article is in the "Incidents regarding anti-Semitism and Zionist symbols" section. It makes no sense for half of the article to be devoted to discussion of specific controversies at two dyke marches. This is a clear case of undue weight. I would suggest that this section be cut down significantly and focus on the specific accusations and official responses, but without all the lengthy quotes and tweets. As it stands, the section is basically a quote farm. Kaldari (talk) 21:25, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You should go ahead and edit the section. Just make sure you provide an edit summary that lets other editors know the reason & purpose for your edit. Pyxis Solitary (yak). L not Q. 07:39, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Pyxis Solitary: I trimmed it down significantly. Please feel free to tweak it further if needed. Kaldari (talk) 14:31, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 3 July 2022

Dyke MarchDyke march – The term "dyke march" is clearly not a proper noun, and the article should therefore be moved to "Dyke march". The language of the article itself clearly demonstrates that it is not a proper noun: Before the concept of a "(d)yke (m)arch" came to be... (the word a indicates that is is a common noun); A (d)yke (m)arch is a lesbian visibility and protest march... (if it were a proper noun, the article would read The Dyke March is a lesbian visibility and protest march...); and so on. Thrakkx (talk) 00:05, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
