thread_title:  NKVD "brave"? 

message: Can anybody translate the poster?  Is it really fair to describe it as propaganda?  This word has quite a strong meaning and I suspect it is being used unfairly.  It isn't just a catch-all term for any literature published by the Stalinist Soviet Union!  It kinda looks like a public information poster.Alun 21:13, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the, uh, sarcastic response, but that doesn't answer the question.  The fact is that propaganda nowadays does carry negative connotations and therefore it should be term avoided unless the article is propaganda.  I still don't know what the poster says and therefore I find the 'propaganda' claim dubious.  The strongest claim would be under the "dissemination of ... practical knowledge of Marxist economics".  This is extremely tenuous.  I suggest that this really means educating people about the tenets of Marxism, not informing them of individual schemes.  Ask yourself this: if there was a poster advertising a census in, say, the UK, in what way could you refer to that poster as propaganda?
Sorry - the "uh" wasn't meant to be sarcastic, just an acknowledgement of the self-referential use of a wiki source to justify a wiki edit. Anyhoo, you may be right for all I know; the word "propaganda" doesn't carry the negative connotation you refer to to my ear, but maybe that's just me. (For me, it just means a governmental urging of a particular POV, eg if they ran an ad telling us not to use mobile phones while driving, that would surely qualify).

message: An IP user added three neutrality tags to the article. The tags refer to neutrality discussions on the talk page but I could not see none. Can somebody elaborate what statements are challenged? If nothing is challenged I will propose to remove the tags. Alex Bakharev (talk) 07:02, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
