In Chile

Chile just approved same sex marriage. The national congress ratified it on 7 december 2021.

In India

The situation in Odisha is the same as in Uttarakhand, according to this--190.5.185.180 (talk) 01:26, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! They mention a couple other states too. — kwami (talk) 22:25, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Vietnam

Where's Vietnam? I see Vietnam, Thailand and Namibia on the map, but not here. That's really weird. Cyanmax (talk) 10:54, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mexican State count

The change here has been from 20 to 21, the first reference that I can find in English is https://yucatanmagazine.com/yucatan-gay-marriage-equality-bill/ which says it is 22nd. Any ideas? Naraht (talk) 13:32, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, https://www.equalityontrial.com/2021/08/23/8-23-open-thread/ I *know* it counts as a blog, but it has a *lot* of links to News sources as it goes. And there seems to be consistent use of 22nd but with the *however* that they have undone the chance to the state constitution, but they still have to change the family code. (so the count would still be 21)Naraht (talk) 13:55, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not yet legal in Yucatan. It had been both illegal and unconstitutional; now it's just illegal, like the other 10 states where SSM is illegal.

As for the count, the discrepancy of 1 is 'states' vs 'federal entities' (states + CDMX). It's now 20 out of 31 states, 21 out of 32 entities. — kwami (talk) 20:29, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And just making it illegal isn't going to fly with the Supreme Court. Ah. I'm in Maryland which actually has the same situation, the City of Baltimore isn't a county, it is a county equivalent. (so 23 counties, 24 county equivalents). At this point, there appears to be growing support for actually giving the supreme court the ability to make National decision because everyone involved is getting sick of the Supreme Court having to deal with all of them separately.Naraht (talk) 21:25, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's just a matter of time, either way. But some states won't budge until the court threatens to start fining them. Though I think Veracruz is trying to legalize to avoid the embarrassment of that happening. — kwami (talk) 02:07, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Switzerland revisited

Switzerland legalized same-sex marriage, but it's premature to have it listed how it currently is, because so far, same-sex couples aren't able to marry. The law hasn't taken effect yet [1]. Prcc27 (talk) 21:33, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's marked as not in effect yet. That's how we handled previous cases like this. — kwami (talk) 00:11, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for fixing that! It wasn't like that when I intially created this section. Prcc27 (talk) 00:59, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I only noticed your comment here some time after I fixed it, didn't realized that until after I responded. — kwami (talk) 04:40, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

three columns now?

Does it make sense to try to change the template so that the countries show up in three columns? I tried changing the width to 6em, but the UK and US went outside the border with their footnotes numbers.Naraht (talk) 04:10, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
