More perhaps on its origins from Liberals, the Dominion Party, and of Ian Smith who split from the latter forming the Reform Party, later remerging with the Dominion Party to form the Rhodesian Front (led by former Dominon Party leader, Winston Field, soon to be ousted by Smith).
Replaced the list of party principles removed without explanation; the principles of the party (i.e. what it stood for) are surely an important part of the article? 82.108.5.5912:57, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep them in list form, simply because it is easier to read. Why should we tax people's eyes? Putting them together turns them into a mush. michaeltalk05:07, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
This is an issue of Wikipedia policy. In this case guidelines say to use sentences rather than to present information in bullet form. Perspicacite05:10, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I don't give a damn about policy. Does bullet form make it easier to read? Yes. So it should be in bullet form. Common sense should override policy at every single oppourtunity. michaeltalk05:12, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
But you lack a consensus, and you had no consensual mandate for change, so wouldn't IAR win, then? And, like you said, there are better things to argue over. Time to go purchase Rhodesians Never Die and actually improve articles rather than fiddling with them. michaeltalk05:29, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Consensus for broad policy does not need to be certified every time the issue comes up. This has already been settled on other pages and is policy for all pages. Perspicacite06:15, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
After having been reverted several times in spite of adding gradually more sources in support of the addition, I feel the need to get input from more editors. --T*U (talk) 09:06, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Survey
Include: The reasons given for removal has been The Rhodesian Front was not white supremacist, calling them "White Supremacists" is misleading and similar statements. Wikipedia does, however, not base its content on the opinion of editors. but on reliable sources, and there seems to be no lack of sources that describe the party as "White Supremacist". Here are but a few:[1][2][3][4][5]
Weak Oppose ... I'm not going to be up-in-arms if this is added to the infobox since it's probably close enough, however, while many sources seem to indicate individual members espoused WS ideas, that it attracted WS members, etc., fewer sources indicate it was in fact white supremacist in its manifesto and platform. I would prefer "Racialist" be added as an ideology, instead, as there seems to be less disagreement on that term among sources. [6][7][8] Again, however, I'm splitting hairs on this point and I if my opinion is the only thing preventing a close then I ask the closer to reconsider my opinion as an "Include."
