:'''Delete''' - I see this as a potentially endless list of out-of-context, disputed comments that could easily create [[WP:BLP]] problems by using carefully selected sourced material to paint a skewed picture of a particular person. I also think it places [[WP:UNDUE]] emphasis on one aspect of a particular celebrity's overall career by focussing on their comments on one selected subject to the exclusion of all else. Celebrities may express opinions about every subject under the sun, but if we allow this, we have to equally allow articles about every other topic that they bother to speak about. I don't see any usefulness. [[User:Rossrs|Rossrs]] ([[User talk:Rossrs|talk]]) 09:47, 22 May 2009 (UTC) |

| ⚫ | * '''Keep''' - So far this article only consists of extracts from different Wikipedia articles. Anyone who is interested in the topic of homophobic remarks by celebrities cannot find a compiled list but has to browse the internet for hours and hours. I have been working on this article for two hours already and am nearly finished. Now that the article is considered for deletion, I will not continue to work on it at the moment until Wikipedia has decided whether to delete this article or not. Please let me stress that this article is NOT intended to say which celebrity is homophobic or not but it will just compile incidents that have been widely discussed in the media anyway.

- Homophobic remarks by celebrities (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Sending this straight to AfD, since I don't think prod will cut it. Ignoring the difficulties with defining "celebrities" for a minute, it simply seems to be a long list of controversies with BLP issues. Ironholds (talk) 09:37, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
