D. H. Lawrence (LGBT? See: Francis Spalding, Duncan Grant: A Biography. (1997) p. 169-170: (around 1915 Lawrence warned David Garnett against homosexual tendencies like those of Francis Birrell, Duncan Grant and Keynes:) "Lawrence's views, as Quentin Bell was the first to suggest and S. P. Rosenbaum has argued conclusively, were stirred by a dread of his own homosexual susceptibilities, which are revealed in his writings, notably the cancelled prologue to Women in Love" - so in his way also Critic of Bloomsbury, critic of its sexual moral, while nonetheless very near to the core members of the group in the era at Bloomsbury)
Francis, I think you're trying to use categories for something they're simply not meant to be used for. All of the above - "close to the movement but not part of it but was the boyfriend of someone who was in the movement" etc, all of that belongs in an article, not in some sophisticated category tree. We should create a subcategory of this one called "Bloomsbury group members" and add anyone about whom reliable sources regularly say "X was a member of the Bloomsbury group". Otherwise, the rest should just go into the article per sources, describing their interactions with the group accordingly.--

As far as I'm concerned everything is sorted now, with the additional subcats, structured list, and removal of questionable inclusions from the main cat. Won't say a tweak here or there woudn't be welcome, but overall I think the direction is OK. --
