Same rights?
:::Direct personal knowledge is inferior when putting together an encyclopedia, yes. Encyclopedias are generally supposed to be filled with facts, which are, in general, verifiable. Hearsay and personal anecdotes tend not to be verifiable. So when talking about facts, I'd prefer some confirmation from other sources, as opposed to someone heard it from someone else.--[[User:Jareddr|Jareddr]] 12:50, 7 November 2008 (EST)

==Same rights?==
[[User:Learn together|Learn together]], thanks for your work on updating the article. I especially like the headings. One quibble - while couples have ''mostly'' the same (state-level) rights and obligations under domestic partnership as under marriage, they are not ''exactly'' the same. See [http://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/opinions/archive/S147999.PDF the In Re Marriage Cases Decision], page 42, footnote 24. (Sorry, I couldn't copy text from a .pdf file, otherwise I would have posted it here.) Of course, federal rights and obligations aren't the same at all.--[[User:Hsmom|Hsmom]] 01:02, 8 November 2008 (EST)
