 == SDF archives == 

 Since you're involved in editing SDF-related articles, I thought I'd let you know that I have access to all the issues of Justice'' from 1896 to 1902, plus several other SDF documents (letters, pamphlets, election manifestoes, etc.) from around that time period.  I don't know if this sort of stuff is typically available in public libraries, so if not and you need me to scan or look anything up for you, don't hesitate to ask. —

 Hello.  Is it possible for you to delete the old account for , or otherwise remove all references to it?  The user is emailing me privately and being hostile and belligerant and whiny, and frankly I want nothing more to do with him.  Please, find a way to give him what the frack else he wants so he'll leave me alone. PLEASE??? -   

 == Template:Africa topic == 

 Hi, 

 You reverted an edit that I had made to Template:Africa topic. I thought that the change I had made was relevant. There's no 'Public holidays in Mauritius' article (so its a red link), but it can be found as a sub-section of Culture of Mauritius. I don't understand the template very well, so could you make any changes that are necessary to point to the relevant subsection? 

 

 Made redirect. Thanks for your help.   

  

 == Roger Protz in Peter Taaffe article ==  
 Hi  
 Thought I would ask your opinion on an issue in the article on Peter Taaffe, as it relates to something I think you posted there, ref Roger Protz, before I proceed to perhaps post something on the Taaffe entry dicussion page or on the article. 

 If you're not bothered and want me to just go straight there, or do the edit, that's fine.  

 On the first issue of the Militant, above the editorial, it says  

 MILITANT 

 Editor: PETER TAAFFE (Walton Young Socialists) 

 All correspondance to the business manager: 

 S. Mani, 40 Stapleton Road, London S.W. 17 

  
 The minutes of the meeting of the RSL which agreed to set up the Militant, as outlined below, are available in Militant's archives. 

 I would like to suggest something along the lines of the following text: 

 Current article has  

  
 Taaffe joined what was then the Revolutionary Socialist League, led by Ted Grant, in the early 1960s and became the second editor (after Roger Protz) of its publication, Militant when it was launched in 1964. Eventually, the group became known by the name of the paper, and was either referred to as Militant or the Militant Tendency. 

  
 Replace with:  

  
 Taaffe joined what was then the Revolutionary Socialist League (RSL), led by Ted Grant, in the early 1960s. In 1964 Grant, Arthur and Jimmy Dean, Keith Dickenson, and others on the executive of the RSL decided to launch the Militant newspaper.  

  

 Peter Taaffe, who lived in Liverpool at that time, was appointed editor, Roger Protz, who lived in London where the paper was to be produced, and who had experience working on a magazine, was appointed technical editor. A business editor and sub editors were appointed. Taaffe's task was to change the whole approach of this small group towards the working class. At that time Trotskyists and Communists tended to speak in an idium which was quite inaccessible to ordinary workers. Taaffe's task was to speak in the language of the ""Labour and trade union movement"".  

  

 In 1965 Taaffe moved to London to work full time on the Militant, despite a serious shortage of money: “I was compelled first of all to sleep on the floor of a supporter in Balham.. . once or twice spending sleepless nights in the entrances of subways” (The Rise Of Militant, p11) 

  
 Eventually, the group became known by the name of the paper, and was either referred to as Militant or the Militant Tendency. 

 etc...

 I wonder what you think? This is a sketch, anyway, of an entry. I could subst
