message: Okay - need to check too-close-paraphrasing of sources. Rewording is alot easier when one has a few different sources to go on. Casliber (talk · contribs) 01:43, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: Marek, if you look at this sentence I changed and then at the reference it came from, you'll see the similar wording. It's worth checking web references. If someone can kick-start this process down the page. I am juggling about half a dozen tasks at the moment, and my main strength is copyediting, so checking some of the other web references and replacing with better book references would be a good first step.

replies: text: Well, for that one, here's the duplicate detector  - there doesn't seem to be much if anything. The main thing is that the history story follows the bulleted list in the source, but I think that's fine, as long as the text is reworded (which it is) and made into prose. I'll check other web sources.Volunteer Marek (talk) 06:45, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

text: I checked pretty much all the sources in the history section and they're fine. Spot checked some of the online English sources as well.Volunteer Marek (talk) 07:00, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

message: I'm reverting this removal, as the declaration of the city as a LGBT-free zone has ramifications for a significant proportion of residents (LGBT residents and their friends and family). Furthermore, the New York Times has contrasted the widescale violence (dozens of injuries) and subsequent solidarity protests throughout Poland (and elsewhere) to the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia - and we mention the Charlottesville rally in the Charlottesville article. Couple with the extremely wide international coverage, this is certainly WP:DUE here. Icewhiz (talk) 09:04, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Perfectly fine to mention, however, it can be summarised into one/two sentences. Nobody died, plus this violence isn't the first of its type. No quotes by any parties (priests, protesters etc) are vital to the topic as they disturb neutrality. Oliszydlowski (talk) 13:14, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: ^^^ In this particular case because of the parade the info merits inclusion, but there's a NPOV way to include it, as User:Oliszydlowski did, and there's the over-the-top POV COATRACK way that the info was originally added in. The general article on LGBT-free zone, if not merged outright to LGBT rights in Poland, would benefit from a similar neutral and reasoned approach.Volunteer Marek (talk) 14:56, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  Well - if full information on this event - including the preceding incitement, well covered in RSes, is here only in summary form - the pride march itself probably merits an article given the scope of coverage devoted to it. Icewhiz (talk) 19:34, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

text: Orthodox christans (Belarus) protested against the march. Icewhiz accuses nationalists.Xx236 (talk) 08:03, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

text: The march was organised mainly by people from big cities who came with leased buses, not railways or public buses.  Who financed the march?Xx236 (talk) 08:09, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:   - it looks the marches are organized, yes. But do you have sources covering the organizers? I would like to write/expand their articles - but haven't found sourcing yet.Icewhiz (talk) 07:39, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
