Image[edit]
Although this case is based on surgery, I don't think a diagram of the male reproductive anatomy really assists the reader in understanding the article. I note that the image has been deleted previously, so I won't do it now without discussion - but, really, what justification can be offered for it? Tevildo (talk) 22:04, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
References needed[edit]
There is no question that this is a landmark case. There are numerous scholarly reliable secondary sources that say so, and analyze the case and its progeny at length. The problem is that none of those sources are cited as references, and the article appears to be entirely original research on the part of the various editors who have contributed to it. Simply summarizing cases based solely on the decision itself, without reference to secondary sources is original research. The reported decision of a court is a primary source and cannot be the sole basis for the article. The article needs to be rewritten with the text based instead on reliable secondary sources, which happily are readily available. Banks Irk (talk) 17:37, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
