:The wiki's article focuses on the word "gay" as used in the DWU. [[Tardis:We're Wikipedia's evil twin]] discusses (in the third point) how we allow articles on any concept that exists in the DWU, no matter how small.

Fair enough, but doesn't that only apply to nouns? Gay is sometimes used as a noun in the real world, but said usage is considered to be highly offensive, and, in any case, it doesn't appear to have EVER been used as a noun in the DWU?
