Stonewall/ Gay Rights Legacy?

Garland's death played an important role in the Stonewall Riots/ Gay Liberation since she was a Queer Icon--this deserves to be mentioned! 70.39.20.64 (talk) 16:27, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The historicity of that narrative is questionable. See Olivia B. Waxman (June 23, 2019). "Some People Think Stonewall Was Triggered by Judy Garland's Funeral. Here's Why Many Experts Disagree". Time. Best.4meter4 (talk) 17:29, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dead Link

Link #111 "Grammy Awards for Judy at Carnegie Hall" does not work. 404 page 2600:1700:AC91:27E0:5D20:13C9:3199:5508 (talk) 01:34, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox Image

Can we change the image in the infobox to this color image. Since it is in color and still pretty high quality for a photo in 1945, it is objectively the best. What should we put though? Wcamp9 (talk) 21:51, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have no problem with the current image. - FlightTime (open channel) 22:20, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Joey Luft

Could we add a sub-heading dedicated to him on this article? Jorge0987 (talk) 11:03, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
