What does "rm cat" mean? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fourdollars (talk • contribs) 22:52, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My edit summary meant "Removed category not supported in the article". There's no indication in Mayor's article that she's lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, which is what the "Category:LGBT writers from Canada" is for. If I'm wrong about that, would you add information to the article and make sure it's properly sourced? Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 00:02, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hey again, well, I have a few references that could work it just seems out of place to throw in a sentence of "oh by the way..." on to her article. But here is one that you could check out from Xtra, a Queer Toronto newspaper, if you want: http://www.xtra.ca/public/National/The_new_Mayor_of_Canadian_literature-5304.aspx

The image field in the infobox is coded to already assume the wikilinks and the word "image" — so you don't have to provide a full wikilink, you can just directly plug in the filename by itself. Bearcat (talk) 19:44, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
