Talk:Outline of anarchism

message: I feel that Gandhi doesn't belong on the list of notable anarchists on the basis that he never did anything to propagate, develop, or advance anarchist philosophy in any sense.  The most he did was take some inspiration for his ideals of communism from Kropotkin and get his ideas on non-violence from Tolstoy (also not an anarchist.)  It can even be suggested he did more to harm the advance of anarchy by assisting in the founding of the nation-state of India.  I won't argue that he wasn't an anarchist, though I am biased against the joke of an idea.  I believe I read a quote from him in which he stated "I am an anarchist, but of a different sort..." (I paraphrase.)  I do not have a citation on that either, so maybe until we have one we should even throw that idea out the window.  I don't care if "swaraj" is in favor of self governance.  That just makes it anti-authoritarian, a parallel philosophy to anarchy.  He was contemporary to it.  He knew of it.  He was inspired by Kropotkin, a man no one can deny was an actual notable anarchist.  If Gandhi was an anarchist himself; advanced it; developed it; propagated it; then we should have a citation for it.  Get one.  Then add him to the list.--Cast (talk) 08:06, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Mohandas Gandhi 

message: That doesn't make sense to me. Certainly there are pro-market and neutral forms of anarchosyndicalism, and have been since the 19th century. 72.83.176.154 (talk) 22:14, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been trying to come up with a name for that column since I wrote it.  "Anti-market" isn't clear.  I originally wanted to write, "socialist" or "anti-capitalist", to differentiate from the pro-free market Agorism, Anarcho-Capitalism, etc.  But Anti-capitalist didn't work because Mutualist is both anti-capitalist, and pro-free market.  Socialist didn't work because segments of the Anarcho-primitivist project wouldn't say they are socialist in the way Anarcho-communists or syndicalists are.  This isn't a major problem.  We just need a better term that describes that group.  How about you suggest one?--Cast (talk) 23:00, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Beats me. I tend to avoid the Marxist distinction between proletariat and petty-bourgeoisie, but anarchosyndicalism, anarchocommunism, and collectivist anarchism are most associated with proletarian and (for the latter two) peasant workers' struggles, while mutualism is most associated with artisan, shopkeeper, and (unlike agorism) peasant workers' struggles. 72.83.176.154 (talk) 02:18, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe it would be best to drop the attempt at categorization all together and place them in alphabetical order?  I'll implement that and see how it is recieved.--Cast (talk) 05:54, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why was anarchosyndicalism listed under anti-market? 

message: This is an excellent list in its current state, which, with a few alterations, could very well qualify as a featured list. Some issues that may need to be addressed:
*The organization section is incomplete, and I wonder what this section would ideally contain - an overview of the most important organisations? The various structures anarchist organizations take?
* The lamentably absent list of anarchists. Perhaps that needs to be completed before this list is nominated.
*The lede does not summarize the sections of the article, per criterion 2 (a).
*It requires relevant free images with appropriate captions. This should not be too difficult.
*References. The featured list criteria demand that the list be "factually accurate" and contain no contested material that is not supported by reliable sources. Outside of the lede, this list contains almost no references, although as a basic list, it might get some leniancy. The referenced-to-death anarchism and anarchist schools of thought articles might be useful here.

replies: text: Regarding the organization section, I say we should include a subsections on both; Notable Organizations (CNT, The Black Cross, etc) and Structures (federations, collectives, affinity groups, etc).  Given that the images should be easily incorporated, we don't have to wait to insert them, but what would you have in mind?  The most obvious would be portraits, but we could also include symbols and location images (do we have any photos of buildings notable for being anarchist related?)  We can include references from those used in the main anarchism page, as I mostly took my cues in writing the brief section summaries from that main page.  Assuming there will be future conflicts over the descriptions given for sections, we can direct any complaints to the main anarchism article, as it is Wikipeida policy not to contradict itself.--Cast (talk) 01:04, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, about the organizations: should the IWW be included?  It's never been an "anarchist" organization, per se, but it is notable in anarchist history.  Perhaps it should carry a note.  If there are more organizations that are non-anarchist, but which anarchists have a mutual history with, they could be put in a secondary section.  That may be overly complicating though, so for now I suggest just putting a notice.--Cast (talk) 01:16, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

message: The history timeline only shows social anarchist events, almost nothing about Individualist anarchism is shown. At the very least, the Cincinnati Time Store deserves a spot. Perhaps a view bullets dedicated to prehistory as well. Zazaban (talk) 02:37, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Leo Tolstoy is in the "Notable anarchists" list,
Leo Tolstoy is also in the "Notable non-anarchists" list.  
So, which is he? :)

replies: text: Maybe he was so opposed to authority that he refused to be categorized and pigeonholed into a single list. Or maybe someone screwed up. Probably that second one. According to the description above the "non-anarchist" list, it is for people who didn't self-identify as anarchist. To the best of my knowledge, Tolstoy never self-identified as an anarchist so he probably belongs in the second list and not the first. I will fix that. Anarcham (talk) 13:36, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Leo Tolstoy is playing two parts at once 

message: "Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation.  The Transhumanist 00:02, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Outline of anarchism's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "ideology":
From Individualist anarchism: "Spectres of Stirner: A Contemporary Critique of Ideology"
From Individualist anarchism in Europe: "Spectres of Stirner: a Contemporary Critique of Ideology"
From Anarchist schools of thought: 
From Post-left anarchy: "Post-Left Anarchy: Leaving the Left Behind Prologue to Post-Left Anarchy" by Jason McQuinn
From Egoist anarchism: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 20:17, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

message: Looking at the list of flags, every flag has a corresponding page to that topic except for Anarcho-transfeminism. Looking online the topic doesn't appear until after the image was made, least when you look up exactly "Anarcho-transfeminism."  it seems odd to include it on the list, it might be best to remove till a page on Anarcho-transfeminism is written.
