Dead link
editHi. I removed the dead link and reference to KGMB and used the number of people at the vigil from the Honolulu Star-Bulletin. There's a full archive for KGMB stories on their website, but no sign of this story. Viriditas (talk) 10:49, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
- I should have archived it, especially after I archived so much else. Hekerui (talk) 11:09, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
- Well, that's the strange thing. All of the archived stories from March are online. Do you think it might have been a different publisher? Viriditas (talk) 11:18, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
same-sex?
editThe first phrase of the article is:
"House Bill 444 (abbreviated H.B. 444) was a 2009 bill that would have legalized civil unions in the state of Hawaii."
Shouldn't it mention same-sex civil unions, or something conveying this meaning? Or is it right as it is? I didn't edit the article, because I wasn't sure...

- Thank you for pointing that out. The bill as it stands states that one of the requirements to enter a civil union would be that both partners would be of the same sex. Cheers, obentomusubi 01:55, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
List of votes in the Senate
editI removed the list of votes because Wikipedia isn't a directory for votes and the votes for every Senator are easily accessible via the provided link to the measure history. Hekerui (talk) 00:04, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
