Talk:National Museum of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender History

Discussion[edit]

I'm all for museums articles but there is nothing in this 'article' (calling it a stub is generous) that is not already said in the Center's article. Further, the complete lack of reliable source coverage of the museum (and ghits only confirm its existence) don't imply that there's anything from which to expand this article. It's redundant to the description in the Center. The article can be re-created when there's something to say about the museum. I know they're currently working to expand the museum but right now there's no evidence it passes notability guidelines. Care to share why you disagree?

Recommend Deletion[edit]

Currently there is no museum at this organization, just the gallery with changing exhibits. I spoke to several people there and there are no plans to create a museum at this time. I recommend deleting this article. Jllm06 (talk) 16:22, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I tried merging, I was reverted. I'd support deletion or merge into the community center, which is where this belongs TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 17:13, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd support merging it under these circumstances. CyntWorkStuff (talk) 22:28, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'll do it when I get a moment. Can I ask why you reverted me the first time I did it? Just curious TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 02:20, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Because I didn't notice any discussion about why it should or should not be done. Once Jllm06 looked into it and it then tallied with the feelings I was getting after checking around (as opposed to the PR puff-stuff that the NYC LGBT Center was putting out . . . I should have known, sigh) it seems like a reasonable thing to do.

Also I am VERY used to LGBT stuff being vandalized, preached at, wiped out, etc. on the grounds god dropped by and personally assured the (usually anonymous) editor that the article was an "abomination". So possibly I'm just a wee bit touchy about it all. CyntWorkStuff (talk) 05:38, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
