Project talk page Talk:Anal sex#Encyclopedic tone and WP:HOWTO Comments are needed about whether or not saying that anal sex "generally requires a generous application of a personal lubricant to prevent tearing, since the anus does not have sufficient natural lubrication" is a how-to violation/doesn't belong in the lead or possibly in the article. One view is that it is unencyclopedic; the other view is that it is a medical fact worthy of mentioning. Flyer22 (talk) 04:11, 20 June 2012 (UTC) Pedophile press Please, review the article pedophile press. I am involved in a discussion with the author on cawiki about pedophilia and NPOV and I dont want to get into a croswiki harassment, so I ask your attention if you consider it needs some clean up. --Vriullop (talk) 11:15, 8 July 2012 (UTC) Please help improve Birth control Birth control is easy and very important to improve. Please see Talk:Birth control#Reviews on the topic in the Lancet this month through Talk:Birth control#Comparison. 75.166.200.250 (talk) 23:28, 18 July 2012 (UTC) Where should the "Pro-pedophile activism" redirect point? There is a discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2012 August 13#Pro-pedophile activism about where the redirect Pro-pedophile activism redirect should point (currently it's targetted at Age of consent reform). Your civil, on-topic views at the RfD page would be welcome. Thryduulf (talk) 15:40, 13 August 2012 (UTC) Proposed deletion of Sexuoerotic tragedy The article Sexuoerotic tragedy has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern: notability of concept not demonstrated While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons. You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

ZackMartin (talk) 09:45, 23 August 2012 (UTC) Sexual assault vs. Sex crime It has recently come to my attention that the definition of the term sexual assault in the lede section of that article seems to be perhaps problematic. If anyone here can find the standard definitions of either or both of the two terms sexual assault and sex crime, preferably with some indication of what qualifies as either, that would probably be very helpful. Thank you. John Carter (talk) 21:02, 24 August 2012 (UTC) See here and here for what John means. 109.123.115.222 (talk) 01:18, 25 August 2012 (UTC) Should have pointed those out myself, actually. I did note at Talk:Sexual assault#OR/SYNTH additions of bestiality and female genital mutilation my removal of the content recently added to that article on those two subjects, and I think that it makes sense that any points of clarification regarding this matter be added there, either in that section or perhaps a later one. And my apologies again for not adding the links myself, and thanks to the IP for doing so. John Carter (talk) 15:38, 25 August 2012 (UTC) Talk:Exhibitionism Eyes, please, disagreement concerning the proper scope of the article. Beyond My Ken (talk) 03:03, 9 September 2012 (UTC) Anti-pornography movement In its previous form, this was an appallingly badly written article, full of generalities mostly supported only by cites to self-published websites (many of which I have just removed, and replaced with {{fact}} tags). Yet at the end of the article, we have a big dump of references to books which could be used as reliable sources from which to source facts for the article. Moreover, the religion part seems to be a poorly-written content fork of Religious views on pornography, and the per-country part a content fork of pornography by region. I've removed both, replacing them by summary sentences. As a result, what remains is now generally relevant to the topic: on the other hand, there is very little of the previous article left, and it now needs expansion. I've also had the insight that there is no single coherent "anti-pornography movement" for the article to be about: instead, there are many individual anti-pornography movements with different motivations and ideological positions. I've therefore moved the article to opposition to pornography, and given it a new intro to reflect the new focus. I'm still quite aware that the refactored article is still poor: I'd appreciate it if others could help improve it: this is a sufficiently important topic that it deserves a well-written, detailed article. -- The Anome (talk) 22:39, 9 September 2012 (UTC) Template talk:Sexual orientation#Pansexuality and polysexuality Input is needed with regard to the above linked discussion. Flyer22 (talk) 18:47, 30 September 2012 (UTC) Proposed “HIV and MSM” Article As part of a class at Rice University, I propose to start a new Wikipedia page entitled “HIV and Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM)” to expand the current small subsection on the Men who have sex with men page. The current HIV subsection of the MSM page is far more detailed than anything else on the MSM page (everything else is merely a survey) and would benefit from having freedom to expand by itself. The CDC, UNAIDS, and AVERT websites all have pages specifically dedicated to HIV and MSM so Wikipedia should have a page that goes into an equal level of detail. The page should also include information beyond public health risks alone, like the stigma associated with an HIV diagnosis in the MSM community and prevention methods. This would make the page a thorough sociological analysis of how HIV affects the MSM population. Although I will draw on the Center for Disease Control for statistics about the prevalence of HIV in the MSM community and demographic data, I will rely mainly on journal articles for my references. There are a variety of scholarly articles available on HIV/AIDS and its specific relationship to men who have sex with men. Journals like The Lancet, AIDS Journal, The American Foundation for AIDS Research, The Journal of Homosexuality, The Journal of Urban Health, AIDS and Behavior, and the British Medical Journal all have published multiple articles on topics relevant to my Wikipedia article. I will make sure my sources are varied, unbiased, and represent a variety of scholarly work. I would be interested to hear the WikiProject members’ feedback on how I can better improve my contribution. Cshaase (talk) 00:52, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
