Mention of "gray area"
It seems to me highly significant that it at least be noted that many criticisms of Marxist theory tie into criticisms of the practical applications. Most who oppose historical Communism do so on the grounds that it is ALWAYS an ineffective system. It seems almost biased to make no mention of what is between between the two, as it implies that historical Communism is not reflective of some desired form of Communism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.48.186.4 (talk) 05:26, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
Dab?
Is this a dab page or an article? I'm really not sure I see the value of this article as it currently exists. It should either be expanded (it could be potentially useful for those criticisms of "communism" which are too vague to classify as either specifically about Marxism or about Communist party rule), turned into a true dab page, or deleted/merged. -Silence (talk) 19:45, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
Requested move
Criticims of communism → Criticism of communism — Criticims should be Criticism . Pollinosisss (talk) 20:16, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Done By the way, move requests due to typos don't need to undergo the whole discussion process. @harej 10:22, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Economic Criticisms
What about reference to economic theories that discuss why it is believed that Communism doesn't work. Reference to the "Tragedy of the Commons." What about the severe environmental degradation that occurs with communist systems. If you have ever been to N. Korea (I have) you would understand what I mean by the environmental destruction that communism causes. Many economists believe that communism has a more severe impact on the environment than capitalism.
The main body of criticisms of communism come from economists. So why not at least include some reference to it here?
A separate section on criticisms of the system of communism itself. (Not just the criticisms of communist regimes). Criticisms of communist regimes, are not criticisms of communism. As a result, I feel that the title of this article doesn't match the subject matter. The title should be "Criticisms of Communist Regimes." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.58.84.157 (talk) 21:33, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
Minor edit
I've removed the section about Leninism under the Criticism of Marxism section as the activity on the talk page and the contents of the article seem to suggest that the focus is on Orthodox Marxism rather than its intellectual descendants. Anatoly-Rex (talk) 21:13, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
Criticisms that Connect Theory and Practice
I've removed this section because it is rudundant with what is contained in the criticisms of Marxism section and because it is not necessarily applicable to all forms of communist thought; particular along the lines of voluntary activity and dictatorial leadership which many currents, like Anarcho-Commumism, are specifically designed to deal with. Anatoly-Rex (talk) 20:35, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
Content redundant
The content of this article is covered in its entirety in the article Communism there is no need to have 2 articles that say the same content. this is called a content fork and it undermines the ideal of Nuetral point of view. I will remove all the content in this article that is represented in the article communism if you have a reason for wanting the information to be listed twice and fork the content. feel free to post here.Bryce Carmony (talk) 23:05, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
deletion proposal
I read the deletion policy but I'm not sure I did the nomination correctly, if I made a mistake anyone can fix it I don't mind and apologize for the mistake ( this is my first deletion nomination so I'm new to this ) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bryce Carmony (talk • contribs) 03:32, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
I think when the "redirect article" and the "article" are so different it makes sense to delete the redirect. Bryce Carmony (talk) 11:13, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
- Redirects of this kind are rarely deleted. Misplaced Pages has clear guidelines on when to delete redirects and this isn't one of those occasions. andy (talk) 12:05, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
- I understand that, however, that being said, if we can make a better end user experience for the people why wouldn't we? What do you think the end user experience is for someone who goes out googling for ONLY criticism of communism. and gets a NPOV article about comunism? I think that they won't be blown away. what do you think? Bryce Carmony (talk) 19:58, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
I have contested the prod and removed it. You can take it to AfD if you wish. andy (talk) 20:50, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
See more directory
I think a see also section with 16 items is excessive when you consider how small this article is. Misplaced Pages is not a directory. We can weave this content into the "Communism" article. if it is about communism. if it is about Anti-communism, we can weave it into the communism article. if it is about the history of communism, we can weave it into the history of communism article. or if we believe that communism criticism is a topic in and of itself we can make the article communism criticism and discus the history, the methodology and the style of criticizing communism.
