Silver

1. It's well referenced, illustrated, adequately covers the subject matter, and is of relevant missionality. Carthage (talk) 15:04, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
2. Agree with Carthage ←§ Reichtangle (talk) 15:08, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
3. Some of the shit I worked on get bronzed, and they don't nearly go into as much detail. This looks relatively well-sourced. If there was a brainstar we could put between bronze and silver I would do that. It's close enough I wouldn't care either way. - Only Sort of Dumb (talk) 06:57, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

Status quo

1. My work on this article is about at its midpoint, with much to be said and clarified. I would rather have helpful (including critical) comments on the talk page than another "demotion" at this time. - WriterArtistDC (talk) 16:50, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
2. As per WriterArtistDC. Bongolian (talk) 17:51, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

   The quality is quite good. I added a lot of internal links and removed two dubious paragraphs. Bongolian (talk) 00:05, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

3. Chef Moosolini’s Ristorante Italiano^{Make a Reservation} 17:41, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
4. Aside from the problems others mentioned, the author doesn't even want it demoted, so there is really no point. Plutocow (talk) 21:29, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

Goat

• Needs some reassurance that people who do associate nudity with sex (like me) and do get a sexual thrill from seeing people in the nude (like me) are not fucking weirdos who've got it all wrong, unlike the enlightened fucking naturists. Spud (talk) 15:16, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
• I concur with Spud. I find the Jungian argument on locker room unconvincing. I've witnessed heterosexual bullying in nude male locker rooms because of appearance, so the argument that the practice of nude male locker rooms has ended because of gay liberation seems weak at best. The traditionally gender-segregated nude baths of Korea would seem to raise some doubt about nudity shame being restricted to Abrahamic religions. The naked Hindu ascetics (sādhus) would seem to be restricted to males, though there are female Hindu ascetics (sādhvīs), I've never heard of a naked sādhvī.

• Based on @WriterArtistDC's recent activity, it would seem that WriterArtistDC may have LANCBed (blanking the WriterArtistDC home page and archiving the talk page).[1] I think the nudity page could be improved using some of Wikipedia as a starting point, specifically Naturism § Controversy, which addresses the issue of sex vs. nudity.
