Can maybe someone skilled proof the facts? I'm not quite shure, they are that right...
I can proof the facts, but just in German...
In fact, I had to edit a bit on adoption, but the rest of the text was quite good.
Can anyone give a better source for this? I flagged it with "page needed," because the source is simply to the homepage of a German news site, and my German is too poor for me to find the page by searching there. I tried Googling and searching European gay news sources for this for an hour, no joy. If you can help, please do. Thanks.

"Christian parties"
I find the term "Christian parties" in the section "Registered partnership" somewhat misleading. The two major conservative parties are the CDU (which does not run in Bavaria) and the CDU (which only runs in Bavaria). The two caucus together on the federal level. While they have "Christian" in their name for historical reasons, they are neither restricted to Christian members or interests, nor strongly allied with any church or denomination. Despite their name, they are no more Christian than e.g. the Conservative Party in the UK. If there is no opposition, I'll change the phrase to "major conservative parties". --

There is still an ideological difference between the Conservative Party in the UK and the CDU. At least in its rhetorics the CDU very much emphazises on its Christian background. Peter Tauber is the party's general secretary. Here he explains why he voted in favor of same-sex marriages
http://blog.petertauber.de/?p=3100 It's full of religious talk - uttering a lot of understanding words why especially Catholic CDU deputies think that the word "marriage" is reserved for opposite-sex marriages. Volker Kauder, leader of the CDU in the Bundestag, still calls the Christian faith as the principal guideline of CDU politics

very negative article
As a german I remember the big discussion about same sex marriage back in 2000 and I have since then assumed that same sex marriage is legal (despite the fact that it is not called a "marriage" but this is more of a relegious thing) and same sex couples have equal rights and im surprised to see an article that is so negativistic about the status of same sex marriage in germany. I would like to know what is actually missing?

Facts are facts, "Registered life partnership" do not give same rights than Marriage. I am surprised that a german does not know the laws of his own country--

SPD same sex marriage bill March 2017
The article states that SPD would introduce a same sex marriage bill in the Bundestag by March 2017. Has this happened, or has it been decided not to submit it anymore? Was there news that can be added to the article on the matter since March? — Preceding

Tentative Support I'd be inclined to wait until the Bundesrat has given its offical approval in a couple of days and the bill has been signed into law. Presuming that happens (which is almost certain), its likely SSM would begin Nov. 1 this year but the wildcard is a likely challenge to the law in the constitutional court. If that looks like being seriously considered by the court then I'd wait until either a ruling is handed down, court knocks back the challenge or SSM simply goes into effect.

Agree with Jono. We should wait until it passes the Bundesrat. At that point, the President of Germany has no choice but to sign (per German law)
Andrew1444 (

No, the President can (and must) refuse to sign it if he considers the law unconstitutional. That's extremely unlikely, but in principle it's possible.--

Oppose: I think the suggested name does not reflect the content of this article well. It currently devotes equal attention to partnerships and marriage, which are distinct legal concepts. Same-sex marriage does not supersede partnership, so why should the title exclude the latter? "Same-sex unions in Germany" would be my preferred title.–Totie (

On that basis, almost all the 'Same-sex marriage in [COUNTRY NAME]' articles should be changed to 'same-sex unions in...' as opposed to 'same-sex marriage in...' Are you proposing that?
Jono52795 (

22:53, 5 July 2017 (UTC)reply
Perhaps they should be changed. Regardless, I think this has no bearing upon this discussion. I am not persuaded that we have to follow the nomenclature of similar articles.
WP:NAMINGCRITERIA itself states that this is but a goal, not a rule. "Same-sex unions in Germany" seems to be the more precise title for this article and I find that more important. We can always have a redirect.–Totie (

There are sites for registered partnership in the UK and designated reciprocal benefits in Hawaii, though these are rather comprehensive in nature with details on what these statuses entail. Since the "recognition of same-sex unions in..." usually details the historical progression of rights, it seems only logical to note "marriage" when full equal rights are realized.

Comment, to be honest, I don't think 'Same-sex unions in...' would be a bad idea. Marriage is a form of union, after all, and it would mean we wouldn't have to have this discussion every time a country legalises same-sex marriage, and it is true that many of these articles discuss more than just same-sex marriage itself. It would also mean more consistency with
Registered partnership in Switzerland and
Registered partnership in the Czech Republic.

I have no objection to rewriting the article to reflect such a historic or linear perspective. However, it currently is not.–Totie (

20:57, 6 July 2017 (UTC)reply
With respect to
User:Totie once signature by President has occurred the title should change to 'Same-sex marriage in Germany', per
WP:CONSISTENCY. This idea has been raised for jurisdictions where SSM is legal at some level (ie: performed in some parts, recognised by central govt but not a sub jurisdiction- see
Talk:Same-sex marriage in Guernsey) but in my view your idea should be put to a broader discussion which might change the other countries titles on this subject. This article's style is virtually identical to other countries which have legalised SSM, so I don't see why we should change it now. It would be odd to have 23 countries listed on Wikipedia where SSM is legal only one of them has a title different to all the others. That's my view.

I tend to agree with Totie that something like "Same-sex unions" would be more appropriate for this article - most other countries didn't have civil unions for a full 16 years before legalizing SSM. --

Well, I don't see this as a good reason to make exception in this case. Besides, registered life partnership will no longer be available.

support now it has passed, as we did with every other adoption. We can make two articles of course in the end, but we need sometihg directly under the same sex title, and a split off is also possible later
Support and I don't see much sense in splitting the article off, this is a progression in rights and obligations given until marriage was reached.
