thread_title: Merger proposal

message: I could be mistaken, but isn't raised fist a much more common term than clenched fist when refering to this salute? Perhaps move it to raised fist again. The Ungovernable Force 08:34, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Either way (raised fist or clinched fist) is fine by me. jareha (comments) 18:16, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorta related, but, what does "copyedit" mean, I've seen this term a lot lately. Is it the same as page move or something? The Ungovernable Force 21:27, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In short: making improvements to text. I use the term "copyedit" to show I've done my best to bring an article in line with the Wikipedia Manual of Style. jareha (comments) 00:40, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

text: I too think "Raised fist" is a much more common term, and was the name of the article earlier on (when it was still a stub). My problem with the current title is that, well, a fist is, by definition, clenched. That's what makes it a fist rather than an open hand. Can we move this back to raised fist? --Switch 09:36, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Well, three of four people support the move and none oppose, so I'm asking for a move to raised fist now. --Switch 11:10, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Clenched fist → Raised fist — "Raised fist" is a much more common term than "clenched fist" for the leftist salute the article is about. Further, a fist is, by definition, clenched. "Clenched fist" is a redundant term and rarer than "raised fist". Switch 11:39, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Well, there seems to be a pretty clear consensus to move. I'll request a move then, I guess? 100% support seems like a clear result to me. -Switch 17:09, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

message: The history section currently is a single block, which other editors and myself have attempted to mold into a coherent narrative of the gesture/symbol's history. However, I could see the value in subdividing it into sections on distinct eras: possible origins, official symbol (ie German Communist Party, Spanish Civil War), and Black Power movement. This would give the reader a clearer picture at-a-glance and make the article more readable, but may inadvertently suggest that these usages evolved independently.
Alternatively, there is some value in discussing the use of the fist as a gesture vs a symbol. This would require additional sourcing beyond what we have now, and is made difficult by the transfer of one to the other and back again -- which is why I recommend against it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Philipthesnowman (talk • contribs) 19:48, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
