How much info

[edit]
I'd like to review this for DYK but I think the article has a lot of material that is irrelevant to the house. I would like to delete stuff about subjects that are not relevant to the house and how it was involved in LGBT history. All the history of LGBT in America is covered elsewhere. OK?

I have sectioned those from above -- if you want to cut some, I think that is possible (per WP:SUMMARY), but it would be impossible from a notability standpoint to "delete all." It's named for Henry Gerber, and it is not really all that notable as one of a block of similar houses.

I tried to limit it when I was writing to that which was relevant to the house and that which gives that material context. i.e., I think it's relevant that the gay culture Gerber saw in post-WWI Germany influenced his decision to start a similar advocacy group upon his return to the U.S. Could we have some specific examples of what we ought to cut?
