Talk:Freedom Road Socialist Organization (frso.org)

Should this page exist?

Should this page exist if there is not a corresponding Freedom Road (freedomroad.org) page? Perhaps the Freedom Road Socialist Organization page should be a disambiguation page containing links to the two group's wikipedia pages. Also shouldn't this page be called Freedom Road Socialist Organization (Fight Back!) ?


 * I agree with the sentiment of the above comments. There is no organization that calls itself "Freedom Road Socialist Organization (Fight Back!)" so in my opinion this page should not exist with this name. There are two organizations that call themselves "Freedom Road Socialist Organization", which up until now have both been described on the same wiki page. It is not NPOV for one of those two identically-named organizations to get the "Freedom Road Socialist Organization" wiki page and have the other shuffled off to a page with a modified version of the name that the organization itself does not use. Until now I have advocated that both organizations be described on the same wiki entry (since they were the same organization before splitting in 1999 and they both use the same name). But since now somebody has created this separate page for one of the two groups, maybe the best way to proceed is to do as the above commenter suggests - make the main FRSO wiki page a disambiguation page with the links to the two separate organizations' wiki pages. Another option would be to cover the period from 1985-1999 (pre-split) on the main FRSO page, then have two separate wiki pages for the two groups post-1999. Or this page could just be deleted if people think it made more sense to keep both identically-named groups on the same wiki page. Thoughts, anyone? Takealeft 07:15, 26 March 2007 (UTC).


 * I think the main FRSO page should be a disambiguation page with links to the two organizations wikipedia entries. I like the idea of using the main page as as the history section previous to 1999, but this might be harder to coordinate. Since the organizations are sailing in rather different directions it would seem that separate pages are in order. Would Fredom Road Socialist Organization (frso.org) be a better name for this page, assuming that there would be a (freedomroad.org) page also? Humbabba 19:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, I think Freedom Road Socialist Organization (frso.org) would be better than Freedom Road Socialist Organization (Fight Back!), assuming there is also then a FRSO (freedomroad.org) page. Using the website addresses in parentheses was the least controversial solution regarding the names that was implemented on the current Freedom Road Socialist Organization page.
