warped picture
editThat picture is warped, I'm not sure how to change it but if anyone else can that would improve the article. The same picture is in the article for Allen Ginsberg, it should look more like that one because it's at the right size. QuirkyAndSuch (talk) 14:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
The ideal photo would be the frontal-nude shot of him and Ginsberg. WilliamSommerwerck (talk) 00:54, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

See the second article cited, Peter Orlovsky, poet and partner of Allen Ginsberg, has died193.251.43.248 (talk) 06:20, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Do subjects really have to have their sexual orientations clearly stated? This seems predicated on an idea that people have clear, easily definable sexual orientations. Peter Orlovsky may well have been heterosexual, but he was in a relationship with another man. This business about clearly stating sexual orientation seems odd. In that case genderqueer people are not LGBT. Also, the T in LGBT - transgender - refers to something different to the sexual orientation, that is, the gender that the subject presents Totorotroll (talk) 21:38, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
