Portal talk:Anarchism

message: I'd like to include the Anonymous article in the Anarchism portal. I realize that the group doesn't necessarily espouse anarchist values, but I believe that its self-organization exemplifies anarchy. Someone reverted my addition of the article, so I figured that the issue deserved some discussion here. KLP (talk) 16:06, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Just for clarification, I was the editor who reverted those changes. Now on to this discussion: Anonymous (group) is not yet a GA (good article) and so will not be added here for that simple reason. A discussion on the point of Anonymous being an example of Anarchist praxis would belong on the Anonymous talk page, and a call for greater anarchist editor participation could be made to the Anarchist Task Force, but the main discussion should be held at the Anonymous page. Any consensus reached there could be pointed to for justification of inclusion or exclusion here. That said, I do think that there have been media references (perhaps small ones) to anarchists participating in Anonymous. I distinctly remember seeing a broadcast program in which a commentator pointed out that the political element of Anonymous crosses the board, form liberal and conservative, to radicals such as anarchists. You could include that point in the section on Anonymous composition as a group. --Cast (talk) 16:29, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the prompt and thorough response. I've created a section on the Anonymous talk page accordingly. KLP (talk) 17:02, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Error in Portal 

message: What's up with this subpage? It appears to be a substituted version of Template:Wikimedia for portals and I can't figure out why it's set up the way it is rather than just using the regular template. Not only that, but the subpage claims that it is supposed to be "generic" and used for all portals, which it certainly isn't on either, which supports the thought that this was a mistaken attempt at using the template that went badly. If there's no current reason for this, perhaps we should delete this subpage and simply use the regular template with suitable arguments. djr13 (talk) 23:28, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Apparently Portal:Socialism/Wikimedia also does this, although it doesn't have the seemingly misleading notice attached. Any ideas why these are like this, or is it perhaps just obsolete workarounds for something? djr13 (talk) 23:36, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like a copy+paste of the . As it stands, several of the links don't work, so I agree that the portal should just call the template directly. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:29, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm rusty on how to get the subpage deleted, if that's desirable. However, I've gone ahead and just replaced the substituted templates within the subpages with a normally transcluded template, within the subpage. Not sure if this is ideal or not. djr13 (talk) 16:10, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: That looks fine to me. It's just another box with an "edit" link leading to a subpage. -- John of Reading (talk) 16:15, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: See Wikipedia talk:Portal guidelines#References in portals. My preferred fix is to remove the references, since the "More about Anarchism..." link leads to the same text with the references. I'll do that now. -- John of Reading (talk) 06:06, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  references? 

message: I created the entry for Black Rose Anarchist Federation and it was flagged for deletion due to issues of notability. One suggestion was to include details about the organization in Anarchism related pages. Is there a suggestion or recommendation that someone would have? Thank you. Cali1155 (talk) 18:58, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi Cali1155, and welcome to Wikipedia. I would recommend that you post your question on the Anarchism Task Force talk page. This page is intended for discussing the anarchism portal, and that page is for discussing articles and Wikipedia issues related to anarchism. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 12:21, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

message: I think Jeremy_Hammond fit in the anarchism portal quite nicely. Are there any disagreements to this? W1tchkr4ft 00 (talk) 15:50, 1 March 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not quite sure what you're referring to. If you're referring to the list of people at the bottom, that's the anarchism template, and you should bring that up on its associated talk page. For what it's worth, I disagree because I don't think he is important enough to anarchism to be included there. -- irn (talk) 16:08, 1 March 2018 (UTC)

message: Wikipedia:WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018.
Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, and design the portals of the future.
As of April 29th, membership is at 56 editors, and growing.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for each component of portals.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject.      — The Transhumanist    03:21, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

message: I think the anarchist symbol at the beginning of the introduction looks like a drop cap so I'm suggesting that remove the A from the first word to create a better effect. the problem is that I don't know if other people see it the way I do and I'm afraid it will make it unreadable for them.  🌸weegaweek🌸 ^ 21:21, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

message: Hi! I would like to propose some minor visual changes on the portal to make it more friendly:
* To make the overall look of the portal page similar to the wikipedia english front page!
* To use a very discret gray as boxes background color.
* To use a black background color for the whole page (like here Portal:Heavy metal, for example)
* To get rid of the extra blank spaces in the bottom of each box (is it possible?)
* To place the selecting arrows on the sides an not on the top (is it possible?)
* To get the "anarchism navbox" out of the "Topics" box, since it´s the only thing inside it, and get rid of the empty "topic" box
* To add the Article Statistics table from Wiki project in the portal page
What you think?

replies: text: Not sure how much use this portal gets (or portals in general, really). There was talk about deprecating the lot of them not so long ago. There's a group at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Portals building some tools for automating portals better. Might want to take a look at what they're doing so you don't duplicate work. czar 04:40, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

message: Sorry for _another_ talk question but is BlueLeaks relivent to this Portal? I see lots of anarchists talk about it and the distribution, etc. of the leak seems to be from anarchists themselves. Thanks in advance.

message: There is a merger proposal which suggests merging left-wing market anarchism into free-market anarchism.

message: > Humans lived in societies without formal hierarchies long before the establishment of formal states, realms, or empires.
Did we? The patriarchal extended family - the tribe - goes back to our earliest history as being established by various gods, which is about as formal as you can get. If "formal" simply means "written and codified" then the point is merely that that prior to writing and codification, things weren't written and codified. Which is vacuously true, but so what?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.13.3.89 (talk) 02:15, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
