Untitled

The hope of this page is to produce a time line of the rich LGBT history of the United Kingdom. We have a worldwide Timeline of LGBT history but that deals mainly with LGBT rights. Canada also has a Timeline of LGBT history in Canada. Hopefully Timeline of LGBT history in Britain can tie together the many LGBT UK events which already recorded in wiki, but are not collated in chronological order.

As well as legal and political events we can record entertainment, television, theatrical, celebrity, sporting and other LGBT events. PjThompso 14:19, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

The page is currently very London centric for historical reasons. I think it would be a good idea to have events from all parts of the UK as well as other parts of England.PjThompso 13:21, 9 July 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pjthompso (talk • contribs)

Iron age evidence

Hey all - just made some substantial deletions about Celtic sexual and social culture which were totally unsourced. Primary evidence on Celtic society is sparse/nonexistence; Roman-era evidence is 2nd hand and somewhat unreliable. The assertions felt so speculative that "citation needed" didn't feel sufficient (i.e. Celtic women fought as warriors and that tends to imply a lesbian-positive culture). As a queer person I would obviously be psyched to have wikipedia celebrate our existence and culture all the way back to the Iron Age; so it'd be good for someone to seek out some really substantial, up-to-date academia evidencing LGBT lives in that period (if it exists) and replace the paragraph with something a touch more scholarly.

There is a lot of research on Celtic tribal homosexuality across the 3 centuries BC. We can add research sources rather than removing the paragraphs. There are quite a few references here https://second.wiki/wiki/homosexualidad_entre_los_antiguos_celtas#cite_note-4

And here The Origins and Role of Same-Sex Relations in Human Societies By James Neill

Research is based on - noble celtic / noble warrior homosexuality - brotherhood and younger/older celtic male homosexual bonding - societal acceptance of homosexuality - warrior mentality and practice (of male warriors living as a group and as in mentor/mentoree pairs

Lots to be added Pjthompso (talk) 22:00, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not use second.wiki for anything. WP:RS WP:CIRCULAR states ...do not use websites that mirror Wikipedia content... and second.wiki appears to contain a Spanish-to-English translation of the Spanish Wikipedia article therefore it is not a verifiable source.

Merger proposal

Shouldn't this page be merged with LGBT history in the United Kingdom? --rossb (talk) 22:57, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline by NHS North West

Please note this Timeline resource which was published by myself and colleagues at NHS North West in February 2011 for LGBT History Month. The LGB content was researched for us by the Lesbian and Gay Foundation and the Trans content by the Trans Resource and Education Centre.

I recommend you examine this resource as it may have additional LGB content that you've missed here and it certainly has equal cover for Trans history, which is poorly served in the entry here.

Full declaration: This is Christine Burns and I was involved in the commissioning of that timeline in one of my consultancy roles as Programme Manager for Equality and Diversity at NHS North West. I am also a patron of LGBT History Month UK.

I hope that is helpful to the editors working on this entry.

Orphaned references in Timeline of LGBT history in Britain

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Timeline of LGBT history in Britain's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "LONUNS2":

  • From History of violence against LGBT people in the United Kingdom: Richardson, Colin (14 August 2002). "The worst of times". The Guardian.
  • From Significant acts of violence against LGBT people: Richardson, Colin (14 August 2002). "The worst of times". London: The Guardian.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 19:20, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Formatting change

Pinging other editors with multiple edits on this page:@Pjthompso:, @Rab V:, @Orenburg1:, @Rodw:, @Hairy Dude:, @Throughthemind:, @Shakehandsman:I have changed the formatting style for the 2020s section and plan on doing so for the other sections too, though some help would be greatly appreciated. This format is akin to that which is used on the page 2022 in the United Kingdom. It makes the events for each year much clearer and easier to read and find. It doesn't make sense and is grammatically incorrect to have a large block paragraph of text with completely unrelated events together for each year. It makes much more sense to have each year as sort of a subheading and then each event given its own bullet point underneath. Please see the 2020s section that I have changed to this style to see what I mean. I'd greatly appreciate any feedback and/or help formatting the rest of the page in this style by any and all editors. Helper201 (talk) 23:41, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Do not use level 1 headings in article space. They are reserved for the automatically generated article title. Moreover, the mobile site expects top level headings to be level 2 and the section-collapsing functionality breaks if you use any level 1 headings.
