[edit] Old comments

It's nice to se that you have been continuing to get info for this page, however having left it in limbo with too much non-relevent as well as duplicate info has put it in danger of being removed. See comments in this discussion here [1].

If your current schedule precludes you from having the time to complete it please tell someone so that it can be fixed by someone else prior to the mods removing it. Thanks CyntWorkStuff 21:47, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Updating with more current info. RahadyanS 12:24, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
I don't doubt that Westheimer and Browne made those assertions, but I added citations needed since none were included initially. I'll look for online and/or print citations this weekend. RahadyanS 14:07, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Self-education while copy editing

I hadn't known until today that Bialogue had been formed in 2005 from the merger of BiPac (founded 1989) and Coalition for Unity and Inclusion (founded 2000). RahadyanS 04:48, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

It wasnt. It may be confusing because I was involved with all three organizations. Bialogue started out as a re-forming of BiPAC with two of it's old members but quickly became more nationally focused while BiPAC was NYC local. The Coalition for Unity and Inclusion is a different organization co-chaired by myself and transgender activist Pauline Park that has been exclusively NYC focused so far. The Coalition was active in the time period between BiPAC and Bialogue.

Ah, thanks for the explanation. That will get sorted out in subsequent revisions. RahadyanS 04:22, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copied from another page

The following comments were made on a peer review page for some reason - there was no actual peer review. I've copied them here for keeping. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 17:26, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

We have reason to believe that this article is merely someone's CV that has been entered unknowingly by a friendly person who was taken advantage of and that the information itself has been "padded" to show the person in an extremely advantageous but not necessarily truthful light. If we may refer the reader to this discussion in previously memtioned matter of bios this could help explain our worries. We would appreciate some assistance in this matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BiAndBi (talk • contribs) 00:08, 2007 May 14 (UTC)

[edit] Notability?

This is someone's chatty CV, not the proper subject of a wikipedia article. What's next? Shall we expect to see flattering entries for Ladies Active in Garden Clubs in the Midlands lauded here? -- chas —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 172.146.75.231 (talk) 16:56, 22 April 2007 (UTC).

This looks like a well documented article but most of the items are all self-referential giving the strong appearance of someone trying to make themselves seem more important than they are. It is also suggested that an examination be made of the articles about other bi activists with unimpeachable notability like Loraine Hutchins, Lani Ka'ahumanu and Robyn Ochs and this article and if kept it be brought more in to line with those. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 172.146.75.231 (talk) 19:17, 22 April 2007 (UTC). sorry not signed, by chas again
Cites from New York Blade, Washington Blade, and the Naomi Tucker book are enough to pass WP:N. I'm removing the Notability tag. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 00:39, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Thank you. RahadyanS 00:51, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Have removed these sections: fought for Children of the Rainbow because not notable, so did many people; Community, Inclusion, Unity: The Fourth Tri-State Bisexual Conference because it has no mention of any connection to Lambert; removed an arrest with ILGO as non-notable, many people are arrested in for a cause; removed he Bi Women of All Colors group as non-notable; removed a film night at New York's LGBT Community Center as non-notable, (an example of notable work would be something like the "Bi Request" event at Frameline). Have also moved the formation of the Bi Writers group to the 2000 area and have removed the "Ongoing projects" all together as vague and having no references. Removed large amounts of extraneous detail and moved personal and education info up to top to bring in line with other articles of this type. BiAndBi 01:02, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] there was already a listing for the LGBT Center

see here: List of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community centers to find the New York one and I put in redirects too ~~ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by BiAndBi (talk • contribs) 18:27, 14 May 2007 (UTC).
