Fair use rationale for Image:Pcdob-logo.PNG
Image:Pcdob-logo.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:52, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Neutrality problem
The article clearly represents PCdoB own propaganda and does not inform about any critics regarding the party's guidelines. As an example, stating that "While many other Communist Parties around the world softened their agendas after the fall of the Soviet Union, sometimes even changing their names, PCdoB gained prestige for not rescinding its ideals." takes clearly the side of PCdoB on the issue, while many left parties in Brazil critiscize it as revisionist. While the party is within Lula's government with its partialy neoliberal agenda, it is quite hard to say PCdoB has not softed its agenda and continues to follow the path of socialism. If nobody takes part in this discussion within two weeks, I will reform this article alone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by El Chemaniaco (talk • contribs) 18:23, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

First anti-revisionist party?
The article says "making it the first non-government Communist Party to openly oppose Nikita Khrushchev", but i don't think that is correct. Here in Sweden, we have the Communist Labour League of Sweden, a small party with the well known communist leader Set Persson as its chairman. Miantonimah (talk) 14:12, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Wrong logo
The logo of the Party is wrong. The correct logo can be found at http://www.pcdob.org.br/interna.php?pagina=logomarca.htm (I can't upload it though, since I'm new to Wikipedia in English). Leandro Arndt (talk) 18:56, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I fixed it now. --Soman (talk) 19:39, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Founding date
Soman has changed the founding date to 1962 (the date of the reorganization as PCdoB). However, there are three parties in Brazil which claim having been founded in March 25th, 1922 - and it seems that in one way or another all three are correct. That is, all three claims have some base and are generally accepted in Brazil with very little dispute. And it would be a good practice to remember that the Party had already been reorganized in 1943 (Conference of Mantiqueira), mostly by the same people who reorganized it as PCdoB in 1962. One can say that reorganizations are quite common in the history of Brazilian communist parties. So, it would be correct to say that PPS, PCB and PCdoB were all founded in March 25th, 1922.
 * PPS (Popular Socialist Party) says it is the formal descendant of the original Communist Party of Brazil (it has always kept the majority of the higher directive instances). It adopted the name "Partido Popular Socialista" and abandoned marxism in 1992.
 * PCB (Brazilian Communist Party) says it is the true descendant of the Brazilian CP, because the majority of the former PCB (which has become PPS) did not obey the Party's internal democracy and illegally abandoned its name and ideology.
 * PCdoB (Communist Party of Brazil) says it is the ideological descendant of the original CP of Brazil, because it has not abandoned its revolutionary ideology and because the Central Committee directed by Luis Carlos Prestes had not observed the resolutions of the V Congress (1960) when it changed the Party's program and name (to Brazilian CP, PCB).

However, I will not change this before hearing the opinion of other users.

Changed, since no one has objected.

 * Last time I saw, there was no place where the bifurcation of the brazilian communist parties was correctly explained. This should be more clear. - João Jerónimo (talk) 23:30, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
