The articles is what it always was: a set of content forks and an opportunity for original research, owned by a gang of individuals from quite dysfunctional and almost moribund "projects". It deserves a third AFD nomination, hopefully drawing on a wider, less one-eyed group of people. McOoee (talk) 05:29, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
Let me know here what you think of these proposals. I'd appreciate your help with it. That's up to you. Thanks. McOoee (talk) 06:27, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
Good advice. The transfer process could be very slow and tedious. Another option is to transfer material to article talk pages and let contributors there decide how best to use it. I'll try to transfer something every day, either to articles or talk pages. McOoee (talk) 07:42, 30 April 2012 (UTC) Re tag about merging English Romanticism section with Romanticism article: No I don't agree with that. The section as it is now is well suited to inclusion in Pederasty in ancient Greece as part of a larger reception section for that article. McOoee (talk) 22:05, 1 May 2012 (UTC) However, there is no reason why you shouldn't leave a note on the talk page for Romanticism letting contributors know that this material is here and that you are considering this merge. McOoee (talk) 22:08, 1 May 2012 (UTC) Oh, I'm not at all concerned with those specifics really. Feel free to make that what you feel is appropriate!--Amadscientist (talk) 00:03, 2 May 2012 (UTC) I also disagree with your proposal to merge the Renaissance section with other articles. It's well-balanced and well fitted to Pederasty in ancient Greece#Reception: Greek love, where this whole article properly belongs. That is how I am editing it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by McOoee (talk • contribs) 01:45, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
Uhm...yes to the last part. I agree with the change to Cultural impact of Classical Greek homoeroticism.--Amadscientist (talk) 18:28, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

Greek love → Cultural impact of Classical Greek homoeroticism – The phrase "greek love" is misleading. An alternative option would then be to e.g. move it to "greek love (idiom)", but that too wouldn't be as precise as this previous title - which is now a redirect - used to be. Biohistorian15 (talk) 10:24, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- I would support Classical Greek homoeroticism as a title. I think the "Cultural impact of" part is excessive. BD2412 T 16:22, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- But that isn't the subject (and it should be "ancient" not "classical"). We have Homosexuality in ancient Greece, Pederasty in ancient Greece and no doubt others for that. Johnbod (talk) 16:52, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Leaning Keep. Not sure how "misleading" it is, & the proposed alternative is pretty clunky. Again, it should be "ancient" not "classical" - Classical Greece is a narrower term. Johnbod (talk) 16:52, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
+ Support that term was used at a time when they didn't call a spade a spade. It has no value other than as a relic of an era. D.S. Lioness (talk) 17:25, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Article is clearly mainly about the term and how it's been used, and does not focus only on the Classic period. As Johnbod Homosexuality in ancient Greece and Pederasty in ancient Greece already exist. I see no good reason to move the article too an overly verbose title.★Trekker (talk) 13:28, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
