Talk:List of communist ideologies

Purpose and Translation?

Since you started en:List of communist ideologies as a partial copy of en:Communism, I assumed your translation project was from English to another language. But I get the idea I completely misunderstand. If the first step in your plan is to split en:Communism, then why not use the entire list of ideologies from that article, rather than a partial list, and complete the transformation of both articles. Then you can make improvements, a little at a time, whenever you have time to work on a piece of the translation. --SV Resolution(Talk) 14:08, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

I believe I used the complete list of ideologies from Communism, if there is something forgotten, please add it here. - I prefer to create a basic version of the future Communism in my private sandbox, because it is very hard task even without influences of other editors. The "new" article will not list ideologies, it should be in a form of historical explanation. And this list (which makes currently most of the Communism article) can then live its own life independently. I will be very grateful for your help after I replace the Communism article, because English is my second language and I make frequent spelling and grammatical errors. I hope that I will be able to finish the basic work soon and then I enable others to make my work better :-) --Ioannes Pragensis (talk) 15:26, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Redundant?

This looks like a copy of the list in Communism. I do not believe we need the same list in two places. Alex O. (talk) 17:57, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

What should be done (no pun intedented) is to expand this list, it really doesn't include many communist ideologies (Marxism, Castroism, Guevarism, Socialism with Chinese characteristics, Ho Chi Minh Thought, National communism, Left communism, Primitive communism, Scientific communism, Autonomism, Situationism, Libertarian Marxism, Neo-Marxism, National Bolshevism, Goulash Communism, De Leonism, Khrushchevism, Shachtmanism, ect.).

Juche?

Why is there no section on the Juche ideology? Seems like this would be extremely relevant, not to mention worthy of a brief description, with how easy it is to misunderstand the ideas involved. 150.131.96.92 (talk) 21:45, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

This looks like a very useful article. Some first thoughts:

• If this is a list, then it can't possibly be a Good Article, because only articles become good articles. You would have to nominate at Featured lists. However, this does not precisely look like a list to me, so I wonder if the title should be changed? If you decide to change the title, please wait until the review is completed, otherwise we get technical issues.
• The next bigger (but again not unsolvable) problem I see is the lead. See MOS:Lead, this section should be a summary of the whole article. All information provided in the lead should be repeated in the text. Instead, you are using the lead as an introduction/background section.
• That brings me to my next point: Better have an actual section "Background", where you can provide more general information, maybe including a general history stating when and why ideologies emerged and to what events they are related, etc. A nice extensive section here to get a good overview, and understand connections, before going into the separate ideologies. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 20:58, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
• It seems to me that the article still has some way to go to reach GA criterion 1 "well written". As an example, see the first paragraph of the section "Juche":
  • The paragraph lacks a red thread, it seems to contain of unconnected sentences in a random order;
  • The quote lacks attribution
  • There are incomplete sentences: "Though many critics point out the lack of Marxist-Leninist theory in Juche."
• There are a number of missing citations (all information should have inline citations)
• So in sum, I think this still needs quite some work to reach GA level. In particular, the article needs a careful copy edit for language and text flow. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 13:38, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

@Jens Lallensack:, hmmm yeah I can see the issues. This is gonna be a lot of work to do, and I'm not gonna get it done in the time frame, so I'll keep working to C/E the text and work on better structuring the article to resubmit for consideration next year (cause an article can only be nominated once a year iirc). --Cdjp1 (talk) 20:13, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

@Cdjp1: Ok, I will fail it then; I also think this might be best, as it just takes away the pressure and commitment. But you don't have to wait a year for renominating, you can renominate as soon as you resolved the issues. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 21:02, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Closing note: Nomination withdrawn. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 21:02, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
