To learn how to fill out this checklist, please see CZ:The Article Checklist.

In brief:

• abc means the form of the title for alphabetization, e.g. "Doherty, John" or "Orient, The". Please think this one through.
• cat1, cat2 and cat3 are categories; if there is only one category, put it in cat1.
• cat_check: put "yes" if you want someone to check over the categories
• status: 0 for approved articles; 1 developed, 2 developing, 3 stub, 4 external
• underlinked: put "yes" if not enough other articles link to it (click "What links here" at left)
• cleanup: put "yes" if basic cleanup has been done.
• by: Names of anyone editing the checklist, in reverse chronological order.

Original author notes

I created the Gay marketing article without outgoing hyperlinks to start. There are obvious opportunities to source various parts of the article, and to create new CZ articles for related topics: Gay community, gay media and so on. I will get to these if someone else does not first.

It is also worth considering including links to external sites related to gay marketing.

As the company I run (Out Now) is in this article's topic area I refrained from doing this, but perhaps some other author or editor may consider the inclusion of links to organizations referenced in the article.

Gay Market News is an update service on gay marketing http://www.gaymarketnews.com that I think is also of interest to the article's topic - but it is not yet included as I write content for it.

Perhaps another author can look into this and decide whether to include these links.

This is the very first article I have created for CZ and so am looking forward to receiving any feedback, either here or on my talkpage, about ideas for improvements.

In addition, I did not yet know how to add the checklist, so if you do know, please add it, or else I will learn more and return to do it. --Ian Johnson 17:39, 24 July 2007 (CDT)

Hi Ian, I added the checklist! I also left the 'legend' at the bottom so you can see how the answers were figured. Once you got the idea, please delete that part. For your first article, you are off to a fast start and seem to be learning fast. Keep going! --Matt Innis (Talk) 19:53, 24 July 2007 (CDT)
