Merger proposal

I don't think November 15, 2008 anti-Proposition 8 protests was impactful enough to merit an article separate from this – maybe this warrants a few sentences to a paragraph as a merge to this article? theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/they) 18:36, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Support - Not enough content for a split. Onegreatjoke (talk) 16:59, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
@Theleekycauldron: @Hanif Al Husaini: @Trystan: @CX Zoom: @Onegreatjoke: @Hekerui: I think we have consensus for a merge here. Perhaps one or more of you would like to jump in! Joyous! | Talk 04:01, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
I boldly redirected, sufficient content in main article in my opinion Hekerui (talk) 18:15, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

I'm doing personal research on the repeal process of Proposition 8, and would definitely like to also find the link to the original article. Am new to editing wikipedia, saw this, wanted to update it. Broken reference link to reference 268, refers me to the home page of SFGATE, not the article link. Please add a link to an archived page of the article, as the link 'http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/nov05election/detail?blogid=14&entry_id=43580' is longer public on the sfgate.com website. Found this link: 'https://archive.is/K5Fj' from an archiving site after inputting the previous, non-working website link. ProlificSundown (talk) 03:10, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
