• Talk:People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals - Should information on the "Holocaust on your Plate" exhibit be put in a separate article, put in a separate section in the PETA article or left as it is without a heading under "Campaigns"? Farnsworth J. 23:47, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
• Several inter-states relations pages. For instance:
  • Sino-African relations
  • Sino-American relations

Not sure where to put this I'm posting this here and at Misplaced Pages talk:Naming conventions (common names). There are several articles about inter-state relations (e.g. Sino-American relations), but no clear naming convention. For instance, why is this article not American-Chinese relations? I have proposed a solution, but I'm not sure what everyone else thinks about it. From Talk:Sino-African relations:

The only thing that makes any sense to me is to take their shortform names in English and use alphabetical order. "African-Chinese relations," "Sino-Russian relations" (from "Chinese," of course), but I'm not sure what to do with America. I guess we would use the shortform name "United States" rather than "America," making "Iranian-American relations" and "American-Vanuatan relations."

There is not a dispute per se about the names, but I suppose I'm not clear on them and there is no obvious standard (although the alphabetical seems obvious to me.) Anyway, can anyone help me out here? 16:49, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

• Talk:Democracy. there are various disputes over the content in this IMPORTANT article. 23:09, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
• Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam - Introduction - There is an ongoing dispute over wording of the introduction to this article. Despite numerous attempts at a compromise version a core group of users will not budge and constantly bring up new issues. Outside help would be beneficial in resolving this.05:25, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
• Democracy (disambiguation) - There is an ongoing dispute about POV and the correctness of moving "(qualified) term" mentions to a separate article. Especially look at "Major page revamp" and "Neutrality dispute" sections. 20:15, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:David Wu A reference in the article whether Wu should be referred to as Chinese American or Taiwanese American for consistency and NPOV. Davidpdx 00:55, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
• Template talk:Anarchism. Some people say that anarcho-capitalism should be disputed as anarchism. I have provided three highly reputable sources to dismiss all their arguments. I am afraid that an error war will ensue if I were to change the template... 21:22, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
• Zarqawi PSYOP program - Merger of this article into Zarqawi article. Debate points are listed Talk:Zarqawi_PSYOP_program#Merger_RfC Please vote or comment. Thank you - --zero faults 12:46, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Libertarianism, in particular these two sections - On how to present controversies among libertarians. 10:36, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Transportation in Beijing - Dispute over whether Beijing is a hub of rail transport of mainland China or a hub of the PRC, and over how to describe the border. 19:52, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:List of largest airlines - On how to present the definition of international for the specific entries. 19:08, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Criticism of Hugo Chávez and Talk:Hugo Chávez Should Criticism be merged back to main article. The Criticism article survived AfD specifically because the main article, Hugo Chávez was too long, employed Summary Style and an effort was underway to shorten the main article. Once Criticism was removed from the main article to the child article, a group of editors decided that no more summary was needed. A POV fork was created after the article had survived AfD, but editors wouldn't let the content be merged back to the main article. Now the Criticism article is being blanked. 23:35, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Blue-water_navy Whether or not Spain and/or India should be considered blue water navies. 05:15, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Al Runte#RFC. Not entirely sure if this belongs under Politics. Local figure, former academic, ran for mayor in 2005. Dispute between editors as to what should be included and whether what is included is referenced. 04:12, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Fascism, Talk:Nazism. Should the term "collectivism" be included in the core definitions. Hinges on whether or not this specific term is used by most scholars of fascism, or by a minority; and if the term "collectivism" is historically used in a POV way in an attempt to link fascism to all forms of government regulation of the economy. No one is disputing that under both Fascism and Nazism the state asserted control in a way that diminished individual rights.13:24, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Cult of Personality How should this article convey this concept and phrase originally coined by Karl Marx. And should original research be used to show examples of this concept or should examples be strictly sourced from notable outlets.00:44, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Liberalism - Should there be an article on the general topic of Liberalism, or are the uses of "liberal" so diverse to warrant turning this into a disambiguation page? 07:20, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
• Template talk:War on Terrorism - The template has been protected until somesort of agreement can be reached, but the discussion since then has mostly been a stalemate between User:Zer0faults and User:Nescio, and could really some extra input. 03:18, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Condoleezza Rice - How best can we incorporate criticism of Rice from members of the African American community and responses to that criticism? --03:02, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Israel and weapons of mass destruction - Should we mention a report in the Sunday Times (UK) that claims Israel was developing an "ethno-bomb"? --01:05, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Allegations of Israeli apartheid - Should the primary information on the phrase "Apartheid wall" be in Allegations of Israeli apartheid or in Israeli West Bank barrier?
• Talk:Cultural_Marxism - Dispute over content, definition of term, relationship of cited sources to accuracy of summaries of those sources, POV, what should be covered and what should be deleted, appropriateness of major deletions, and more.13:10, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Criticism_of_Islam Dispute over introduction of a section dealing with reviews from third party sources critical of contemporary critics of Islam. Many critics of Islam have been controversial because of their alleged prejudices or political agendas. Disagreement is on whether information that would shed light on such 'criticism of critics' is appropriate in the "Criticism of Islam" article. Since much of the criticisms of these personalities are founded in their political motivations, this comment is appropriate here. 19:20, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
• Mansura Jamaat What is this? I came across it randomly. I was going to delete but I'm trying this first. I left a message at the Jamaat-e-Islami talk page but no replies so far. It isn't mentioned in that article. Is this just a delete? 15:37, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Serbia national football team The article is/was split from Yugoslavia national football team and contains only the information related with Serbia (and Montenegro) team since 1992. However, FIFA (unlike most other international organizations) accepts the continuity of Serbia and Montenegro (now Serbia) national football federation to the one from Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. There is a dispute whether the team records should reflect only the period from 1992 onwards, or also the period from 1919-1992. 12:07, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Rush Limbaugh Detained on June 26 for three hours at the airport with a container of Viagra marked with the name of the doctor who prescribed it and not his name. The Sherrif's Department of Palm Beach County investigated and announced on July 5 that there would be no action taken against Limbaugh. Is this incident encyclopedic? 02:25, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
• List of war crimes- Should the 2003 US invasion of Iraq should be listed as an "Illegal War of Aggression"? In general, what should be the criteria for inclusion in the list? 09:38, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
• Armando (blogger) - is using the name of an "outed" blogger a violation of WP:BLP? Is information resulting from said outing encyclopedic? --14:59, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Nouvelle_Droite - Content dispute. Appears in part to be issue of misunderstanding English translation of French words: "Nouvelle Droite" as opposed to English use of term "New Right." The New Right page already exists. In English, "Nouvelle Droite" is only used to describe French or European movements. I cannot get user Intangible to comprehend the language issue, and we are involved in multiple page name and content disputes, so I doubt I can resolve this without help.19:46, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Affirmative action - article felt to be in need of a general reorganization along national lines, recognizing that conditions are different in each country 22:57, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Fidel Castro Not a content dispute, but User:Teemu Ruskeepää has been continually attempting to restructure the talk page, and is now adding a lengthy poll to the foot of each talk discussion, despite comments from many users that he is causing chaos on the page and repeated requests that he give up his "experiment".15:33, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
• Misplaced Pages:Central discussions/Apartheid and Misplaced Pages Talk:Central discussions/Apartheid is the site of various polls on reorganizing, renaming and/or merging Israeli apartheid, Apartheid outside of South Africa, Global apartheid, Gender apartheid, Sexual apartheid and Apartheid. 02:32, 29 June 2006 (UTC) (An anon did some confusing moves here, and I'm untangling them. Check both pages listed. Thanks.)--John Nagle 04:33, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Democratic Underground - Dispute over inclusion of an external link to the main article. It has been reverted a number of times, and keeps being removed by IP posters. Much vitriol and personal stuff in the talk page. I don't think this can get resolved without external help 06:04, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Ron Dellums - some possibly POV language has been inserted into the article; two editors who have been at odds for a while could use some extra unbiased eyes. 00:14, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Nagorno-Karabakh - There has been a lot of trouble in coming to consensus over how the introduction should be worded. I think some fresh points of view will hopefully help resolve this. This dispute continies for a long time, so I decided to restart this RfC, as it still has not been resolved. 06:25, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Rotary_International Accusation of pro-Rotarian attempts to subvert neutrality of page. Basically an edit-war. 23:05, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
• For months a small group of people is trying to include the war in Iraq as part of the War on Terror. Despite numerous editors telling them that using such a phrase is a statement of fact and a violation of NPOV which says that we should not be advocating one side of a debate. Therefore I started a proper RFC (Talk:Iraq_War#Starting_a_proper_RFC_that_mentions_all_views) to ask people to look at the situation, review the previous discussions and leave a comment as to what they think about the invasion of Iraq(]).08:08, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:The Oregonian - discussion about whether to include criticisms of the paper by a political action group. Also in the Media section but I'm relisting it because we really need some outside opinions on this one other than the four people engaged in argument. 04:48, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Culture of corruption is unlikely to make anyone particularly happy, but needs a lot more sets of eyes to turn it into the quality of article that I envisioned when I started it. Talk page comments hint as to how it became something of a jumble. 23:01, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Democracy (disambiguation)#Weeding the links has a current debate over articles to link to for disambiguation purposes. It seemed to be a fairly straightforward disambiguation style problem that a top-level page like "Democracy" shouldn't be deep linking to a number of individual articles on the political history of a specific country (i.e. Second Party System). One editor disagrees, however, and seemingly on more than just disambiguation grounds, so more views are requested. - 22:41, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
• Talk:Cities with the most highrise buildings – regarding how Hong Kong should be listed on the lists of cities with the most highrise buildings and cities by latitude. 13:38, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
