Gay Quarter of Quebec City[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Recently deleted on fr:, with the rationale that Quebec City doesn't really have a gay village as such — it has a couple of gay businesses that happen to be located near Le Drague, but the city's gay community is widely dispersed and doesn't really live in a unified neighbourhood. The early version of the article was literally just a business directory with widely varying street addresses confirming that the businesses in question aren't all in the same neighbourhood. And given that we're talking about Quebec City, if the article is unsourced and unsourceable on fr:, then it's beyond hope here. Delete. And note that I'm a gay man, so this isn't a homophobic "delete gay villages" crusade — it's more of a "don't create articles about gay villages that don't actually exist in real life".

Delete, doesn't warrant more than a paragraph or two within the Quebec City article. PK T(alk) 20:04, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom = me too. Quebec city is not known for this, cf. Montreal, Toronto (trono), etc. Bearian (talk) 23:41, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
