[edit] Merge Some Content with Existing "LGBT Literature" Article

Recommend merging latter part of this article with the LGBT Literature article and deleting first part, which seems to repeat some of the information in the LGBY Literature article.Gpscholar 01:00, 9 April 2006 (UTC)gpscholar

[edit] Comments and suggestions

This article and lesbian fiction, lesbian literature, gay teen fiction, and LGBT literature ought to all be consistent with one another.

As of now, this article is but a list and collection of summaries. It should provide a thorough discussion of the subgenre in general, with background information, history, and modern significance.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:White Boy.jpg

Image:White Boy.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
