So, rather than an edit war, let's discuss changes to the article... -Sρΐяαl.Дгсђıτέςτstand up and shout 03:41, 6 September 2008 (EDT)

Where is the "De Leonist Socialist Labour Party" based? ħumanUser talk:Human 15:15, 6 September 2008 (EDT)
I found it. It's 'murkin. ħumanUser talk:Human 15:16, 6 September 2008 (EDT)
Yup. Also, thanks for the cleanup. -Sρΐяαl.Дгсђıτέςτstand up and shout 16:48, 6 September 2008 (EDT)

Timeline[edit]

I added a timeline to summarise the party's history, focusing on splits and unions because that's always fun. If someone skilled at these things can convert it into a diagram, that would be awesome. Annquin (talk) 16:11, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

By the way, the logic behind the timeline is that newly-formed organisations are bolded; others are unmarked. This may not be obvious. Annquin (talk) 16:17, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

This page needs a massive cleanup[edit]

While Rationalwiki doesn't have a NPOV, this article is poorly articulated and some its claims are dubious particularly about the party's "growing popularity" and both the intro and history sections need to be rewritten to be more coherent. Tuxer (talk) 11:19, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

Oxyaena (again, again)[edit]

@Oxyaena Once again, undo your revert and give me reasons to modify it. Don't just revert it (again).

Permit me to help. Actually too bad, I will anyway. "Socialism is not mere government ownership, a welfare state, or a repressive bureaucracy. Socialism is a new social and economic order in which workers and consumers control production and community residents control their neighborhoods, homes, and schools." Their own fucking website says they want to go beyond the welfare reforms typical of social democratic countries. Get better, GR.-Flandres (talk) 12:34, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
??? @Flandres [1] I REMOVED it from the socdem category and Oxy ADDED it back! — Godless Raven SDAPOe logo.svg talkstalkwalkbalk 🌹 Flag of Europe.svg 12:39, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
Yes. You need to cut the crap and do what I did immediately("oxy again"). Oxy needs to stop because she is wrong.-Flandres (talk) 12:42, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
ahahahahahahha incapable of admitting you're wrong? My edit was right and Oxy's was wrong. Get better, troll. — Godless Raven SDAPOe logo.svg talkstalkwalkbalk 🌹 Flag of Europe.svg 12:44, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
I just said Oxy was wrong. I just said I would help you. Are you illiterate? this is not so much "get better, GR" as it is get basic adequacy GR, PLEASE. Actually reading other peoples posts when they disagree with you(or in this case, even when they agree with you!) is not that difficult!-Flandres (talk) 12:47, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Side note-did I not admit error on the anarchism talk page, like, mere days ago? Are you just having an overall meltdown? And it's nice to see you cower behind that template even when I AGREE WITH YOU. Any actual refutation of the fact that yes, I agree with you?-Flandres (talk) 12:47, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

@Oxyaena If you are still following this, can we just have a civil disagreement over this topic on one of our talk pages? You can pick which one. I don't think GR is in a good condition to argue his point right now, and he may need to just step back for a sec.-Flandres (talk) 13:03, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

As a mod, I will frankly say you aren't in good condition to argue, either. --It's-a me, Lgm sigpic.png LeftyGreenMario! 21:05, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
