RfC and obfuscation of earlier consensus[edit]
In the archives of this talk page there are editing instructions for this page which represent earlier consensus. They actually address most of the sourcing and inclusion issues present in the article and, had they been followed, we would not be having an RfC about red links (or having a future one about sourcing). They are well written and useful - please read them:

How to edit this article[edit]
This is not a directory. See Wikipedia is not a directory. This article is an index of Wikipedia articles that have been written and also serves as a list of articles that need to be written. In order for a name without an article to be included here, there must be a reasonable expectation that an article will be written about the person. See Wikipedia:List guideline, Wikipedia:Lists of people. With rare exceptions, the person who is the topic of the article should meet the current versions of the Wikipedia:Notability (pornographic actors) and Wikipedia:Notability guidelines. Like much else in Wikipedia, these are often undergoing edits; however, if an article is challenged for removal, failure to satisfy those guidelines is likely to be quoted as a reason for the article's deletion. Any information about men listed here should always comply with Wikipedia:Biographies of living people. The list does not include performers who have appeared on websites or in live shows unless they have also appeared in a gay porn film. Inclusion or removal[edit]In addition to the statements above, the following list more specifically defines who may be included here.
Styles for entries with and without articles[edit]All the videographies for a performer with pseudonyms should be listed at the first name in the list, even if that is not the most commonly known name or the name used for the title of the article. The use of see in his subsequent listings cross-references the first name; all the pseudonyms for a performer need not be listed at each entry in the list. Only the name with the references needs to be cross-referenced: The name that is the link to an article may be included in the cross-reference:
Unless there is an article on the performer listed here, their name should not be wikilinked. There should never be redlinks in this article. Do not wikilink a name before writing an article on the performer. An article about a person with an identical name to one listed here will be linked here even though the subject of the other article is not a performer in gay porn films. Removing names from the list[edit]A name on the list that is not a porn performer must be completely deleted; the name should not be mentioned in the edit summary; nor should it be listed here. The process of using invisible comments detailed below does not apply in the case where there is no evidence that the person was in porn. If the name being removed is properly sourced and there is no question as to whether the person is a performer, it is preferable to format the name as an invisible comment rather than removing it. This will help prevent the same name being added and deleted multiple times. The comment should include the name of the performer, a reference to the source that shows he is a porn performer, and the reason for deletion. If an article about a performer is deleted the name should be removed from the list and not reinserted unless and until an article that meets Wikipedia's requirements is written on the performer. Subsequent editors will then know not to reinsert it until the article about the performer is written. For example, Ralph Woods—who is a porn performer videography—failed an Articles for deletion review. Rather than deleting his entry altogether, it is commented out, using the invisible comments format:
Only one blank line may be used outside the comment, either above or below the text; otherwise, an additional blank line is shown in the list. Multiple blank lines may be used inside the comment between the <!-- and --> marks. Remember to leave the reference/videography information in the comment and add the reason for the name being removed so that the name isn't relisted. Note: To reiterate, there should never be an invisible comment for a name that was deleted for not being sourced as a porn performer. Nor should the name be included in the edit summary; "Removed unsourced name" should be used instead. If the name is unsourced, it should not be associated with gay porn at all; do not list the name on the article's Talk page, either. Article titles[edit]Unless there is already an article with the same name as that of the performer or the performer's name is likely to be confused with someone or something else, no descriptor/modifier needs to be appended to the name for the article's title. If a modifier is need, the convention is to use "(porn star)" after the name. In cases where there are more than two articles with identical names, they should all be listed at a disambiguation page (for an example, see Randy White). |

I think it would only be fair to add Kurt Marshall to this list of actors. He was the ultimate gay pornstar in the 80s! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.244.120.186 (talk) 20:45, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
- Now Kurt Marshall has been added to the list under "K". A truly remarkable impact in a short but notable career. werldwayd (talk) 08:53, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Not done: There's currently no Wikipedia article on that actor, so inclusion in this list is inappropriate. --ElHef (Meep?) 21:36, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
