Talk:Cleveland Street scandal

message: Should this article have a coordinate for 19 Cleveland Street? If so then based on multimap, the following template would do the trick: . I'd argue that the article should contain a coordinate, since being able to click onto a map helps to locate the geographical locus of the scandal - it was here: . Set against that is the risk that multimap's 2008 conception of the location of no.19 does not marry with 1889. --Tagishsimon (talk) 02:45, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Is there a photo of the location?  (Preferably contemporary; if not then a photo from today would cover.)  Tempshill (talk) 03:24, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I am confused by the description of the trial. The issue of a libel writ against Parkes would be a civil matter. This would result in damagaes against Parkes had he lost, but not imprisonment. Were there two cases, one a criminal case against Parkes, as well as the civil libel case? --Yendor1958 (talk) 08:32, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It was a criminal libel case. English law provided for both criminal and civil libel. DrKay (talk) 08:41, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Euston v Parkes Trial 

message: I've added a paragraph to the Aftermath section on the house, including one report that suggests it still exists under another number - unlikely IMHO. I was able to check the house numbering on a map when Cleveland Street was called Norfolk Street (which was certainly different), but I couldn't find a Victorian era map with house numbers after it was named Cleveland. Another tricky issue is that in 1888, the year before the scandal, there was a wholesale renumbering of streets.Engleham (talk) 17:03, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The section you inserted is problematic for a few reasons. First, this is a Featured article so the highest standards of prose and sourcing are required. Your proposed text is not well-written or well-sourced, and phrases like "it has been suggested" are vague and seem like WP:OR. You will need strong secondary sources that summarize the points you are trying to insert, and indicate that they are relevant to the subject. --Laser brain (talk) 12:57, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

text: Since this is a Featured article, everything needs to be cited. We need to make sure we are not interpreting or making claims about things ourselves. We need to cite secondary sources that analyze and provide information about the claims. Does that make sense? --Laser brain (talk) 16:20, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

text: Every statement needs a citation to a source that explicitly supports that entire statement. DrKay (talk) 17:40, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

text: There's no source for "The official record shows such notions to be without foundation." I recommend cutting it. DrKay (talk) 09:47, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  The House 

message: A new book 'The Sexual Constitution of Political Authority: The 'Trials' of Same-Sex Desire' offers some excellent fresh analysis of the case -- and also of the Dublin Castle scandals which John Saul was also mixed up in. Sections can be read on Google Books: https://books.google.com.au/books?id=L1GhCAAAQBAJ&  Some of its points could maybe be incorporated to strengthen the article. Thoughts?
