Gay square dance

Gay square dance (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)

I think there must be a Rule 34.1 of IRL: There's a "gay" version of it, no exceptions. So do we really really need articles about things like gay square dance, gay weightlifting, gay parkour, gay aviation, gay high energy physics... - (), 12:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related page because of the same concern (and because this is even less notable):

International Association of Gay Square Dance Clubs (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
  • Keep all I'm not gay, nor have I been to a square dance in the last 20 years, but this is notable enough. I disagree with the argument that this is simply a variation on something that everyone does. Unlike weightlifting, parkour (?), aviation or even high energy physics, squaredancing requires a large group of people no matter what their orientations may be. You might as well argue that a gay and lesbian pride parade is just a parade with the word "gay" attached to it. This has events, clubs, and a long history... and apparently, a large following.

  • Delete. No reason to have a specific article for this. If gay squaredance is sufficiently different from normal squaredance, then we can add a note under squaredance and maybe redirect from here. Lundse 15:25, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - reliable sources attesting to the notability of the topics exist, for instance here and here, and a bit more here. Otto4711 16:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
