Talk:Debs Tendency

This needs more help toward NPOV – it is currently still biased toward the Debs Tendency in my opinion. I would really like a source on Appeal to Reason being one of the U.S.' largest publications prior to 1922 – I don't know for a fact that it is not, but have no real reason beyond this article to believe that it was, either.

 * I actually stumbled across a source a couple of days ago, in Bruce Watson's Bread and Roses (ISBN 0-670-03397-9), pg. 127, discussing media coverage of the 1912 Lawrence textile strike: ""Lawrence is a typical capitalist mill town," wrote Appeal to Reason, a Socialist paper out of Kansas that was America's most popular weekly." -David Schaich Talk/Cont 00:22, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Biased
I'm not involved in whatever internal disputes are happening in the SP-USA, but, as a trained scholar, it is easy to see by the use of language that this article is biased and written by a member of the DT. Please check for accuracy and objectivity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.217.184.214 (talk • contribs) 04:51, 28 November 2005
 * Doesn't take a trained scholar, exactly--perhaps it should have been reworded back in 05 rather than tagged, but I'll do it now. DGG 04:12, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I decided to leave in one use of "comrades" -- as appropriate to the subject matter of the article. DGG 04:24, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Redirect?
I propose redirecting this page, as well as Fist and Rose Tendency and Grass Roots Tendency, to Socialist Party USA. I just don't think these groupings are notable by themselves. The Direct Action Tendency is already a redirect. In part that's because it disbanded a couple of years ago, but none of the others have been especially active that I can tell. -David Schaich Talk/Cont 00:09, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Hearing no objections, it's done. -David Schaich Talk/Cont 04:15, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
