Removal of "needs-infobox" tag

This article has had its infobox tag removed by a cleanup using AWB. Any concerns please leave me a message at my talk page. RWardy 19:27, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strange format redirections?

I seem to remember the film and play previously having their own articles. Why would the film article redirect to the play article, but still be name "(play)" and be written as though it is just about the play? A similar thing seems to have happened with The Dreamers article, with the book directing to the movie article, without the article including the information about the book or changing the page title to reflect this. Very odd! --Jackdavinci (talk) 01:15, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

vandalism

There was some heavy editing in the article : someone removed all the homosexuality references to the point that it was quite disturbing. I corrected most of them but some may remain. Fishhook (talk) 12:51, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Bent" as slang

Why on earth is a citation needed? It's basic English slang, ask any person with an awareness of English demotic culture. Would you ask for a citation for the cognate use of "gay"? - of course not. 121.99.84.227 (talk) 04:38, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Concur. It's been standard slang for at least four generations in the UK, quite possibly for significantly longer.
