Islam in the Gambia

It was not an attempt to merge the two articles, since Religion in the Gambia already discusses Islam better than the (supposedly) main article. There is no material that could be added to Islam in the Gambia that could not also be discussed in Religion in the Gambia, and both are short stubs without sources, so why do you oppose the redirecting?--eh bien mon prince (talk) 16:43, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

Christian Workers' Union (Finland)

Of the two books you cited the party winning two seats in 1909 to, the Nousiainen source actually says the party won a single seat (on page 180), which is also backed up by Finnish parliamentary election, 1909, which I suggest you need to correct if you are sure the party won two seats. Also, you expanded the Nohlen reference to cover lots of facts that it doesn't contain (it was only referencing the bit about the party not contesting any further elections).

East Germany

If you're interested, I would say there's some rich potential for expansion in the realm of the East German mass organizations. de:Deutscher Turn- und Sportbund, de:Verband der Kleingärtner, Siedler und Kleintierzüchter, de:Kammer der Technik, de:Verband der Journalisten der DDR, de:Katholische Filmarbeit in der DDR, de:Industriegewerkschaft Metall (DDR), de:FAKULTA (FDGB) and de:Deutscher Sportausschuss are all possibilities. We might use a category as well. This is a good start for membership figures. - Biruitorul ^Talk 13:32, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. It's wonderful to see that, and I hope you have the time and inspiration to do start a couple more over the coming weeks. - Biruitorul ^Talk 02:52, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Hiya

Help me out with the acronym IVKO — Communist Opposition I got, but not the IV... Are you talking about a children's division of the German Young Communist Opposition?

I was gonna barnstar ya for the great work you've been doing on parties and publications. I send out announcements of new stuff on WP to several H-Net newsgroups and your stuff has been prominent.

I know that the American CO organization had a (very small) youth section. I don't have any recollection of having seen an international organization for these national youth sections, however. I'll snort around a little tonight, but my guess is "probably not." Carrite (talk) 01:25, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

There's nothing in Alexander. I was looking for my back issues of Road to Communism but didn't see them — I've got like a 3 foot tall stack of magazines and don't have the time to dig just now. I don't think there was a formal international youth organization though, since the movement was the biggest in the US and that barely had a functioning youth section — and that mostly towards the end of the 1930s, by which time the German section was suppressed by the Nazis. I have no recollection of having seen a word about such a thing and I was reading Lovestone stuff hot and heavy for a year for the (forthcoming) book. —Tim /// Carrite (talk) 01:37, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
