I edited the paragraph about Yale, based on this sentence, from the transcripts of his 2004 address to the community: My own college, Yale, with $1 million of my own brother’s money to do just this, will not teach what I call gay history, unencumbered with the prissy incomprehensible gobbledygook of gender studies and queer theory. Morris 13:33, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)
I think you should add that sentence verbatim to the article, rather than try to paraphrase it. It's better to let Kramer speak in his own words and let the readers figure out what he means. Adam 14:29, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Your point is well taken, I edited that paragraph as you suggested. Morris 19:59, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)
haha this quote just shows how out of touch that dinosaur of a professional complainer Larry Kramer is with GLBT issues and politics these days. I think you should keep this quote in the article. Queer theory does include gay male history as well as bisexual, lesbian, and trans history.

The Brad Davis article says that he didn't die of AIDS.
From what I read of that quote from Kramer, it is quite obvious he is a pedophile. Suffor 22:47, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
Just because he doesn't mention that doesn't mean he isn't one. Only a pedophile would think it is normal for kids to have sex with adults. The fact he and his butt buddies mention sharing stories like that is also further proof. Suffor 16:10, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Is ACT-UP a militant group? It doesn't say that in its own article? The ACT-UP page says "non-violent" and only mentions "civil disobedience." Someone please correct this inconsistency. Voice of All(MTG) 05:17, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
Image:The Normal Heart.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.

So, ah. Any reason why someone hasn't given this a good, thorough copy edit and nominated it for GA? -- Moni3 ( talk) 19:08, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
There's a very good possibility that this article can get to FA. Kramer apparently has quite a volume of literary and social criticism about him. An FA would require a section on theatrical/literary analysis of his works. I must confess that I have not read nor seen his plays, though The Tragedy of Today's Gays is on my list to read. I feel confident enough to write a section on social support and criticism for Kramer's tactics and statements, but wonder if an editor may be interested in focusing on the literary side. -- Moni3 ( talk) 18:56, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

This basically states that the book is complete and contains more details about the book than this wiki page has, including the fact that it'll be published in two volumes and that the first one is scheduled to be released in 2012 87.194.86.204 ( talk) 18:35, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
noted for quote by Susan Sontag "Larry Kramer is one of America's most valuable troublemakers. I hope he never lowers his voice." This quote is on the dust jacket

Would this not be sufficient reference. If this can be used to get rid of "citation needed" would someone please code it - I don't know how. thanks 68.231.25.212 ( talk) 23:13, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
