hi. definitely ganarajya and ganatantra menas the same, i.e., republic, but ganatantratmak refers to "Republican" as I have already mentioned. so lets put ganatantra in place of ganarajya or ganatantratmak. also, the foreign ministry has directed all its mission in and outside the country to refer Nepal as Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal in official level. it has also stated that Nepal can be refered to as "Republic of Nepal" as a official short form. though couldn't find the source for it.Razv (talk) 15:34, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Re:Jewish Socialist Party

Same time and place. According to Henryk Grossman article, he joined the unlinked "Jewish Social Democratic Party of Galicia in 1905". Note that Polish Wiki gives the full name of Poale Zion as Żydowska Socjaldemokratyczna Partia Robotnicza "Poalej Syjon": Jewish Scialdemocratic Workers Party "PS". If it is not the same party, it is some small splinter - there seem to have been a few that split and merged all the time. I wish we had more info; I will see if I can stub Adolf Mosler as my small contribution to that story. I do think, however, that it was Anzelm Mosler, not Adolf (try googling for those two names...). At least Anzelm has a Polish Biographical Dictionary entry (Łopuszański, Bolesław (1977) 'Mosler Anzelm', in Polska Akademia Nauk Instytut Historii (ed.) Polski Sownik Biograficzny volume 22, Wrocław, Zakład Narodowy imienia Ossolińskich, pp. 55-56.). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 22:17, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Am reading Rick Kuhn's biog of Grossman. They are completely different parties - perhaps Polish wiki is wrong? JSPD/ZSDP was break from social democratic movement, and highly critical of PZ. Am trying to edit relevant pages with material from Kuhn's book. BobFromBrockley (talk) 11:44, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

As I noted, I am not that familiar with that part of the history. If you have found refs that it was a different party, great.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 14:52, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Answer to the question you asked me about democratic socialism and social democracy

Hi, the reason i have been adding Democratic socialism and social democracy in many articles is because ideologically i believe that most parties that define themselves to be democratic Socialist are social democratic as well and vice versa because most socialist parties will try to remove the injustices of capitalism and reform it but not remove it and support a mixed economy, that is social democracy, but also most also support a welfare state and an evolutionary, electoral, democratic path towards Socialism and/or a fairer society which is democratic socialism, in contrast to a revolutionary path. most Centre-left parties wether they define themselves as social democrats or democratic socialists believe in these basic things and also if you look at the two ideologies in depth they are very closely intertwined with each other and it is my belief that both ideologies are so closely related that they should be used synonymously with each other. as for the parties i have added these two ideologies to i have read their policies over and over and have deemed them to adhere to these two idologies and as you know it is difficult to provide a reference that states explicitly that they adhere to these two ideologies so i have had to go by what their policies are and have added social democracy and democratic socialism based on my judgement of their policies.

Bolshevik Party (North Kurdistan-Turkey) - Terrorist Status

It occurs to me that user talk is a better tool than edit summaries for exchaning opinions. At least for the sake of the details. I note that the Bolshevik Party (North Kurdistan-Turkey) is not a terrorist organization because its historical roots has also given birth to terrorist organisations. Maybe jugding TİİKP (Revolutionary Workers and Peasants Party of Turkey) as terrorist is state POV (and checking my List of illegal political parties in Turkey would demonsrate my sensitivity to avoid that, but not only for Republic of Turkey), however at least one of its splinters, TKP/ML-TİKKO, is a terrorist organization. And Doğu Perinçek admits that (http://www.beepworld.de/members10/c-a-t-i-/ekler2.htm). Furthermore the name suggests to me and probably anyone not associated with communist circles in Turkey that the organisation might be terrorist; because we would expect the denomination North Kurdistan to be used by Kurdish separatists such as PKK. That's why the terrorist status section is relevant to the article. I'll put it there back with some additional explanation. If you still want to revert that go on and do it. You've worked a lot on these issues and therefore your final edit should be respected. Evren Güldoğan (talk) 23:11, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

I just noticed that TKP/ML is where Bolshevik Party (North Kurdistan-Turkey) has split from and TİKKO is its armed front (And it's clearly a terrorist organisation.); so the terrorist status section is necessary to clarify that BP (NK-T) is not a terrorist one, at least according to the Turkish state POV.

RE: ASMAA ABDOL-HAMID

The talk of metroexpress isnt gossip and is backed up by other news sources. The case regards a conviction in Denmark, and would - if merely gossip - be tried for injuries. So it is not fair to removed it because of your interpretation of "Gossip". People reading wikipedia is intelligent enough to draw their own conclusion when looking into a matter.

Use of the word "terrorism"

Hello fellow Wikipedian! I agree that the word terrorism is a pejorative one. That's why I try to use the term "illegal political pary" instead of terrorist organisation as in the article I started titled List of illegal political parties in Turkey. I hope that's a neutral denomination (However let me add that I personally think that organisations such as PKK, TKP/ML and Turkish Hezbollah are terrorist and should be dealt away with force. That understanding of mine might surface in the discussion pages; but if it happens in the articles, by mistake, it should of course be removed.).

Now, WP:TERRORIST states that "In line with the Misplaced Pages Neutral Point of View policy, the words "Extremist", "Terrorist" and "Freedom fighter" should be avoided unless there is a verifiable citation indicating who is calling a person or group by one of those names in the standard Misplaced Pages format of "X says Y"." I have added sections titled Terrorist Status to various articles stating, for example, that "The organisation is listed among the 12 active terrorist organisation in Turkey according to Counter-Terrorism and Operations Department of Directorate General for Security...". I believe that "X says Y" format. However in order to be even more sensitive about the use of the term "terrorist" I propose changing the section names to Designation as a Terrorist Organisation as in the article List of designated terrorist organizations. What's your opinion? Evren Güldoğan (talk) 21:51, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

No, thank you for your constructive criticism. I believe it helps improving the articles. I'll change the titles anyway. And in the human resources sections I'll replace "terrorist files" with "files about people convicted of being a terrorist under Turkish laws" and "terrorists" with "militants", as you have suggested. Indeed I have already done that in PKK and Great Eastern Islamic Raiders' Front articles. I'll finish the work tomorrow, after getting some sleep.

And, yes, the mentioned study gives statistics en bloc. However I think the reason is probably that there are no statistically significant differences between the left-wing organisations covered by the study. The human resources bases for MLKP should be similar with TKP/ML, MKP and DHKP/C since they all have the same historical roots. So I thought the available statistics is better than none. However it you still find it inappropriate please go on and remove that section. I have checked out the history of the article and clearly can see that it's your work which expanded it from a single line to a meaningful contribution. Best regards.

Good article. I hope I'll be able to expand it when I get some time in the next month. I'm not really sure if the party participated in the 1923 elections, i have to check it out.

I hope that you'll apply the same rule you applied to Italian communist parties and you will remove "far-right" from the article (I did it once, but Nightstallion, did not agree). --Checco (talk) 16:39, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

I agree with you on the Austrian case, but I don't understand your views about PRC and PdCI (parties you probably don't know as I do) and I don't like your way of imposing your personal view on that two articles. I won't follow you in any edit war, but I defenitely wont' ask to you before editing those articles. Have you a great summer! --Checco (talk) 10:32, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

They are, they are and especially PRC will be even more to the far-left since today as Ferrero, the leader of the hard-liners, is poised to win the party congress and to be elected secretary. --Checco (talk) 11:16, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Chaudhry Akbar Ebrahim

Hi
Thanks for clarifying that mixup with Chaudhry Akbar Ebrahim. I had looked on the government page for both Chaudhry and for the minister of forest, but since both the name *and* the ministry were wrong I didn't find it.
Any particular reason though why you turned his name around, from "Chaudhary Mohammad Akbar Ibrahim" to "Mohammad Akbar Ibrahim Chaudhary".

somnath article

'summary expulsion' means'sudden', 'without spending time on any discussions using views from both sides' and 'without being given a chance to air one's view before expulsion'..it needs to be mentioned.. i guess you might agree that its far better than the word "ejected"

"along with" BJP is the reason why he opposed...who joined who is not the question..cpm and bjp - both had "independent" uncoordinated motives to achieve a "common goal".

not incorporated this point so far ..but requesting you to consider this: cpi m included an 'above party considerations' 'constitutional authority (speaker s name)' in a 'Party' list (questioning the non partisan nature of speaker's post) triggering his rigid constitutional stand..so speaker's post being 'non partisan' as obligated by constitution needs mention too..........i shall insert the importance of this point in future edits..Cityvalyu (talk) 00:17, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

re personal sandbox page: 'Re-write of Buddhism & Christianity

Hi, Soman. I'm most grateful to you for drawing this to my attention. Not sure what's happened here. If you look at my user page you'll maybe see how I thought I had in fact created it as just a personal sandbox page. But sounds like it isn't as simple as that. I suspect the key word the significance of which I'm missing is namespace. It has some important technical significance of which I'm ignorant? Have looked at the fork page you've linked to, but am still none the wiser.

Could you tell me how you came across the page? I certainly didn't create it as part of the article itself, and when I go to the article it doesn't connect to this page. Have now put the User page template on each of my personal pages, but don't know if this"ll suffice to resolve the issue. Would be grateful for your help; because if I've goofed I certainly don't want to repeat the error. Regards Wingspeed (talk) 14:40, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Oh, right. Thanks again for that. Wingspeed (talk) 14:50, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

EKP in 1990

While I personally think Termer is being somewhat dogmatic that the EKP splitting from the CSPU is impossible, because it implies the party splitting with itself, I currently don't have any definitive source to back up either side of the argument. Sadly, I'm not really so well versed in the Esotnian case as I am in the Latvian one, which is more my area of specialisation. However, a key person in this context appears to be et:Enn-Arno Sillari, as in this Time Magazine article from 1990: ; and this one from NYT: . Sillari is also mentioned in Anatol Lieven's Baltic Revolution, p. 278, as the head of the "Estonian rump" EKP. Hope this helps. By the way, there's an interesting article that brings up the issues of the continuity of Estonian Social Democracy in exile in the current issue (39:2 June 2008) of the Journal of Baltic Studies. —Zalktis (talk) 14:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Communist Party of Estonia (1990)

I have nominated Communist Party of Estonia (1990), an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Communist Party of Estonia (1990). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? --Termer (talk) 05:36, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

BIMARU term

The word BIMARU has turned into a derogatory term and is often used in insulting sense. It's better to study these states through their individual pages.
