Wikipedia is based upon reliable sources, not subjective original analysis by users. Zenomonoz (talk) 01:38, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I still don't understand what you are asking for. I don't see any tables resembling these in the present article, the only mentions of some of these countries (e.g. Algeria, Bangladesh) are in tables transcluded from e.g. Template:LGBT rights table Africa, Template:LGBT rights table Asia, etc. and concealed inside collapsible boxes within LGBT rights by country or territory#LGBT-related laws by country or territory. Are your tables (i) suggestions for improving existing content; (ii) suggestiond for additional content; or (iii) an analysis of what we presently have in the article? If (i) or (ii), we definitely need reliable sources, per the policies on original research and verifiability; if (iii), see WP:NOTFORUM. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 08:16, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
