Disambiguation
[edit]Shouldn't these two papers be handled with a disambig instead of lumped on one page? -- Jmabel | Talk 07:26, September 4, 2005 (UTC)
Pathfinder
[edit]Why was this removed: "In recent years it has become the international paper of record of the Pathfinder Tendency." I believe that is correct. - Jmabel | Talk 17:03, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- What is the "Pathfinder tendency"? I see it as a POV term used in a derogatory sense. I think it is better to simply say that the Militant is an international paper, written by and distributed by communists in different contries. Bronks 11:04, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
I see nothing derogatory about the term Pathfinder Tendency. It is not an official name, but you have to call it something to distinguish it from communists of other tendencies. And because they do distribute Pathfinder books it is descriptive.Dolaro 18:03, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Do as you please, I don't really care... But I think it is wrong to use the words ""In recent years it has become..." - becouse in that case, it has always been! Bronks 18:50, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, I made an attempt to include the PT words, hope you think it's okay this way. Bronks 18:53, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Sources
[edit]This article has no sources for its statements. It would really help if those who wrote it would include some refrences paticularly on the history section. 216.255.11.145 (talk) 06:23, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
Citation needed tag
[edit]Just to clairfy the citation needed tag, the article states, "To protect the party and the paper, The Militant is owned by a private group..." I am just a bit curious as to how, and from whom, this is meant to protect the party. Hammersbach (talk) 21:57, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
Controversy
[edit]I removed the controversy section. It has [citation needed] since more than half a year and is still unsourced. MrBurns (talk) 05:17, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
