Removal of a character in the list

@BlueboyLINY:

Would you explain please your reasoning for removing the character that was recently added to the list? Your notation stated that it was a non constructive edit? Can you please elaborate? Eggshells (talk) 16:40, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Omg nvm I see the character was already on the list. Not sure how I missed that Eggshells (talk) 16:42, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, the list isn't comprehensive, of course, but any male character who has reliable sources to show they are gay should be included. Historyday01 (talk) 17:23, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
