Talk:Outline of green politics

message: Suggestion:  green politics is the most comprehensive and interesting article.  Make sure it is complete.  In fact, make it Wikipedia:brilliant prose.  That will help more than listings.  Then, work on green movement which is the non-party expression of these concepts, and Greens which describes factions within that movement.  Then, and *only* then, worry about the Ten Key Values and Four Pillars of the Green Parties <-- or Party?  and the Global Green Charter.  By this point you will be great at writing about these issues.  Then contrast all these to the simple ideal of a "green" party which is just ecologically sane.  Imagine the worldwide Green Parties don't exist.  Get all of these into Wikipedia:brilliant prose.  Then, and *only* then, decide how to approach Green Parties as the set of political parties most overtly identified with these concepts.  By this point, you will have created so many Greens that you will have lots of help. ;-) EofT
Also, this seems poorly named, as here we refer to a "list of ____ topics" but your article also has persons/figures of note within the movement.  We would have a "list of Greens" and "list of Green politics topics" perhaps, but, the latter are really more like a list of global policy topics. EofT
:This article could definitely use a rename to clarify that it refers primarily to green people, parties, and organizations. The phrase "green topics" implies (to me at least) that this is a list of green ideas,themes, and areas of research, and might even exclude green organizations.

replies: text: A "List of ..." is a case lying inbetween a regular article and a wikipedia-namespace-tool. I started this list as a help for editors of green party issues and to clarify the different articles (which appeared often in different versions with different names and/or redirects, i.e. chaos between Green party and green parties, and so on). This list helped to clarify that chaos a bit. This is one point, mainly seen as an editor, and mainly concerning the akas in the first part of the list. The other point is that there is a listing of parties, which all have in common that they have one (or several) "native" names and English names. I find it helpful for editors and readers to know that "Die Grünen" is the "Austrian Green Party", and that "Les Verts" is "French Green Party". Or that Green Party of the USA and US Green Party are the same article. So, I think these akas are helpful for editors and for readers (or at least don't disturb them) and should not be deleted. -- till we *) 12:38, 22 Feb 2004 (UTC)

thread_title:  Aliases 

message: I just checked and I did not find articles for List of Conservative Party issues, List of Socialist Party issues, List of Labour Party issues, or even these articles with the word "Party" taken out. Why does the Green Party rate such an article? I suggest a name change to List of Green issues. Then again, I don't see any simliar article for other issues, parties or philosohpies. So what am I missing here? - Nhprman 03:10, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  New name? 

message: Apart from the highly biased title and lead sentence, this list is arbitrary, and could be nearly infinite if one considers the diverse uses of the term "green".  I would like to delete this section. Bcharles (talk) 22:46, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

text: A See also section is better suited to this. Is Greenpeace really separate from green politics, though? It seems ideologically so, even if it isn't formally affiliated with a green party. --BDD (talk) 16:20, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  drop "false friends" section 

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 00:06, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
