[edit] Article reorganization

I made some pretty significant changes to the layout/structure of the article. My intent was to tidy things up somewhat, and present the information in a more logical manner. I'm sure the other editors will let me know if I didn't succeed. :-) OscarTheCat3 00:18, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Online links

OK, I'm new to Wikipedia but not to this subject. I added some links to some online resources which have just been removed. I don't understand why a mention of swinging on Nip Tuck is relevant but my cited reference to a top 100 website being about swinging isn't relevant? I really am keen to get involved but struggling to understand how things work here! Panda2 22:50, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

It's not that your links aren't relevant, more that they aren't appropriate. Adding links to Wikipedia should always add content, not just links. The Nip/Tuck reference is something that you won't get by just typing "swinging" into Google and demonstrates a protrayal of the topic in the media. The links that you added were just links - they didn't add content. Hope that helps. Inkwell 17:32, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pruning of "bisexuality" section

I've cut a few chunks of uncited info out of this section, mostly because they seemed to be about lesbian/gay reactions to swingers and lesbian and gay biphobia, which seemed irrelevant to me.

Does anyone think the information I cut should be kept in some form?Inkwell 17:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
