Talk:Chinese Communist Party

message: An encyclopedia should be based on official names throughout an article, not perjoratives. This article is about the CPC. Even if folks in the West commonly use CCP instead (a negative stereotype, possibly to associate it to Soviet communism), it should not be a base noun of this article, as it indicates bias. 
Analogously, in the past, Japan was referred to as "Jap-Land", as a sign of disrespect, in some quadrants. But I would never expect to see an article on Japan to use the label "Jap-Land" further promoting it's widespread use, instead of the correct term, through out the reference article. 163.120.113.248 (talk) 12:05, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why continue encouraging a Perjorative Label? 

message: The party itself refers to Marxism, although its policies are different, but it could be assumed that the party's line is simply left-wing, not far left.
:The most important aspect of the analysis is it needs to start with how the balance of WP:RS describe the CPC's ideology. As a further matter, the left-right dichotomy arises from the Western political and historical context, and becomes less useful once removed from them. Our current ideology section of the infobox is much more precise and specific to the Chinese context. For further information, take look at the archives section of the talk page to see how this recurring discussion has played out in various ways over the years.

replies: text: CPC should still be relisted as Far-left as they still technically retained communism and many of its well associated elements such as Marxism afterall Communist Party of Vietnam is still listed as Far-left despite having very similar economic reformation policies to China.

text: Would you consider "far-left" to be fitting for communist parties in the political context of Vietnam, Cuba, Laos, and North Korea? If not, should the descriptor be removed from the Wikipedia articles for those parties too?   TheTajik (talk) 01:46, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: It starts with how the balance of the RS on each of those frames it. It’s probably worth assessing each of those.  JArthur1984 (talk) 02:35, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Left-right position of party 

message: The party is known officially as "Communist Party of China" or "CPC", so it is curious why the article utilises a name more commonly associated with propaganda against it (people saying CCP often spell it that way to draw resemblance to CCCP, the Soviet Union, or to delegitimize the party in general). Wikipedia is supposed to be impartial and neutral. Eduluzsci (talk) 16:13, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Years ago, the page used to have the correct “CPC” formulation. This is a discussion that recurs over time and is too soon to have again though. Take a look at the page archives to see how it has developed in the past.  JArthur1984 (talk) 17:47, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

text: Or, to put another spin on it, the name in Chinese is the "China/Chinese Communist Party," with the country name coming before "Communist Party." DOR (ex-HK) (talk) 19:45, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why does this article refer to the party as "CCP" and why is the title of the article "Chinese Communist Party"?
