[edit] Weber?

I seriously doubt Carl Maria von Weber ever signed that petition, as he was quite dead at the time.

So it would seem. Anyone know of some sources where we can dig up info on who died when, signed what, was or perhaps was not alive at what time? -Seth Mahoney 02:54, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
Just goes to show you can't trust everything you read on the internet! I have to offer my apologies, it was me who added that list of names. I take it there's only one Carl Maria von Weber? I got the names from this site by Jim Kepner, the Founder of ONE Institute's International Gay and Lesbian Archives. I should have been more cautious, especially when sevel of the names in Kepner's list have spelling errors! Here are two other lists of names on the petition by different authors; I will remove any names that are not on all three lists.
[1] Albert Einstein, Leo Tolstoy, Emile Zola, Kathe Kollwitz, Hermann Hesse, Thomas Mann, Rainer Maria Rilke, August Bebel, Karl Kautsky, Rudolf Hilferding, Gerhardt Hauptman and Eduard Bernstein.
[2] Albert Einstein, Léon Tolstoï, Hermann Hesse, Rainer Maria Rilke, Stefan Zweig, Thomas Mann, Emile Zola, Richard von Krafft-Ebing, Sigmund Freud, et Max Brod.
This leaves: Albert Einstein, Hermann Hesse, Thomas Mann, Rainer Maria Rilke. I think we can also add Leo Tolstoy, as Kepner mentions him as a signatory elsewhere in his article and it is corroborated by the other two. -ntennis 08:20, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

I haven't signed since I don't have an account on the English-language Wikipedia, and only contribute very occasionally. I'm a regular contributor on the Hebrew Wikipedia, where my username is Aviad2001. I noticed the error since I'm currently translating this article (and the one in the German Wikipedia) into Hebrew. 88.111.162.200 21:46, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

BTW, Richard Plant, in The Pink Triangle mentions Buber and Bebel as signatories as well. 88.111.162.200 21:53, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
