After the right party took power in 2007, the same-sex partnership is no longer under consideration and it is banned. I would depict Italy in RED—Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.26.52.195 ( talk • contribs) 13:53, 23 December 2008
This needs updating, now that homosexuals can marry in Norway;). -- 85.164.221.15 ( talk) 16:15, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Gay marriage is not constitutionally banned in Serbia, it's just not recognized, so Serbia should be orange, not red ! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.94.122.60 ( talk) 20:57, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
From 1/1/2009, Hungary will provide a "registered partnership" - So that means Hungary should be blue on the map, NOT green on the map. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.166.64.209 ( talk) 09:35, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
Yes, Hungary should be blue, just as Norway and California became purple WHEN they legalised gay marriage but BEFORE the law enters in force. On the other hand, Portugal should be downgraded to green. There is NO registry, and in the navigation template Portugal is listed as "unregistered cohabitation".
More ambiguously, I think that Italy and Romania (and maybe Greece) should be orange. Their governments and parliaments can't or are unwilling to pass any LGBT couples legislation. I don't share the view that "under debate" means "debate in society", this is just not objective. Probably even in Iran there are some people talking about gay rights, but this doesnt translate in marriages or unions coming any time soon.
I'll try to fix all this as soon as I learn how to edit images. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Finedelledanze ( talk • contribs) 23:00, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
Has Denmark and Sweden legalized same-sex marriages yet? Both Denmark and Sweden has provided "relationship registories" (similar to civil unions) since 1989 for Denmark and Sweden since 1993. Same-sex marriage might be legal soon, maybe by 2010 for both Denmark and Sweden? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sevenlanes ( talk • contribs) 12:47, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
Has Denmark introduced a bill legalizing same-sex marriages yet?
Has Sweden indroduced a bill legalizing same-sex marriage yet? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sevenlanes ( talk • contribs) 12:49, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
Do not get too excited yet. The GNM [gender neutral marriage] law does not become affective until 1/1/2009. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.130.85.141 ( talk) 09:09, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
This map shows Kosovo as having the same marriage law as Serbia, where it indicates that Same-sex marriage is banned. Is this law the same in Kosovo as well? 24.218.56.104 ( talk) 18:08, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
In fact Kosovo has different laws from Serbia and Homosexuality it's not banned in Kosovo
Will Ireland provide Civil Partnerships soon?
Will Austria provide relationship registories (based on the Swiss model) soon? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.217.98.170 ( talk) 06:25, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
Recognition of same-sex unions in Estonia is currently an active political issue in Estonia. H2ppyme ( talk) 17:39, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
Estonia should be yellow on the map, (just like Ireland and Greece) because soon the Partnership Bill 2008 might pass. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.170.14.237 ( talk) 06:57, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
I can't tell if they're marked on the map, but they should be orange, since they are not recognised. Although since we have a new government, which doesn't include the Christian Centre Party, we may become yellow soon. :) Mulder1982 ( talk) 23:32, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Has Iceland, Denmark and Sweden made SSMs legal yet? Because Denmark (since 1989), Sweden (since 1995) and Iceland (since 1996) has provided legal registered partnerships.
When will be a final vote in the Swedish Parliament? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.24.3.177 ( talk) 17:49, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
I think Poland should be red on this map. Article 18 of the Polish Constitution defined marriage as union between a man and a woman. I know, text this article maybe is complex or not clear, but polish experts think this article prohibited same-sex marriage. Article 1 of the Family Code also defined marriage as union between a man and a women.
I agree with you. Poland should be red as in the Polish Constitution there is a strict definition of marriage.
Why Greece is yellow? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.24.52.254 ( talk) 18:23, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Hungary will have a "modified" registered partnership from 1 July 2009 (originally passed in 2007). The vote was 199 as a majority - However; NO marriages, recognition of children, adoption, surrogacy, ART (assisted reproductive technology) and surnames are included in the registered partnership law.

I am confused is Austria in the unregistered cohabitation or registered partnership status section? Sometimes vandals keep changing the status when there is nothing to source or back up their claims (very very anoying mind you). I have heard that Austria will provide a registered partnership bill to the Lawmakers of Austria is this correct and can this be verified? What is the actual latest status on Austria?
Also what is the latest legal status of the Civil Partnership Bill 2009 (draft) in the Republic of Ireland? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.207.230 ( talk) 11:43, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I see that the number of countries coloured as being "under political consideration" have blossomed. In my view, this entire category should be eliminated, at least in the absence of any clear criteria regulating its use. Currently, six countries are included on the map: Ireland, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, Slovakia and Estonia. In each of these countries, the nature of the debate is very different:
I think all countries except Ireland should be changed from yellow to green. Personally, I would eliminate yellow altogether, but if people insist on keeping it, then I think it should only be used in the following circumstances:
If we interpret "under political consideration" broadly, as meaning "under political discussion/debate" then we ought to include essentially all countries in Europe. Nearly every country has had some form of political debate on this issue. Ronline ✉ 11:51, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
