WeaponizingArchitecture anti-Zionism is not cited on its page as a political ideology. It is also original research. Therefore these are good grounds for removal. Helper201 (talk) 18:49, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please prove it's original research. I added a source from the main text to back it up, and you removed it anyways. This isn't helping either of us. WeaponizingArchitecture | yell at me 04:46, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Please prove it's original research." It is the other way around, WP:BURDEN of verifiability is on you as inserter of material. Also applies to "far-right" label. Makeandtoss (talk) 11:01, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
the far-right label was added by someone else. I re-added it in reverts because User:Helper201 kept removing Anti-Zionism (THE SOURCE FOR ANTI ZIONISM IS RIGHT HERE AND YOU REFUSED TO READ IT.) because it is their opinion that it's not an ideology, based on dubious semantics on the wikipedia page.
If you want a source, please consult the editor who initially added it, User:BrendonJH. As a matter of fact I don't believe the position should say "Far right". I was going to make a RfC on the position but this situation has prevented me from doing so. WeaponizingArchitecture | yell at me 14:48, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It originally said far right, but then the entire political position section was removed and I just re-added it. BrendonJH (talk) 16:39, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Helper201: @Makeandtoss: I've started an RfC below this section. I hope to get the input of more editors. Feel free to contribute. Thanks! WeaponizingArchitecture | yell at me 15:48, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request for comment on political position

[edit]

Should the subject in the article (the Islamic Action Front) be classified as Right-wing or Far-right? WeaponizingArchitecture | yell at me 15:47, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looked for reliable sources using various combinations of right/left/centre/conservative/liberal and got the following hits:
right-wing[1]
far right[2]
highly conservative[2]
conservative[3][4] (conservative on women's issues[5])
Islamist[6][7][3][8][9][10][2][5][11] (Islamist but democratic and not extremist or militant[5])
Conclusion: no, stick with Islamist and possibly conservative BobFromBrockley (talk) 17:39, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would a compromise of "Right-wing to far-right" be apt in your opinion? WeaponizingArchitecture | yell at me 20:11, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
