Political position
Should we update the political position into the infobox to "Radical left to far-left". Lsandre (talk) 21:53, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

The political position should be change. The position is (in french) "gauche radicale", a position in french equivalent to a moderate far-left (Radical left wing), to far-left.

This position is sourced with:
 * https://www.bfmtv.com/politique/syriza-pourquoi-le-parti-grec-est-soutenu-par-l-extreme-gauche-et-le-fn_AN-201501250005.html. In this source, the title is "SYRIZA: POURQUOI LE PARTI GREC EST SOUTENU PAR L’EXTRÊME GAUCHE ET LE FN", the far-left (EXTRÊME GAUCHE) is represented in the article with "Le leader du parti de gauche Jean-Luc Mélenchon" (the Left Party leader), "le secrétaire national du PCF Pierre Laurent" (the PCF leader, member of the Left Front). We can read : "Il a reçu les soutiens de plusieurs partis français, du Front de gauche au Front national (FN)", so the far-left is the "Front de gauche".
 * https://www.lemonde.fr/politique/article/2014/04/12/manifestation-anti-austerite-a-paris_4400339_823448.html. In this source, the title is "« Hollande ça suffit » : l'extrême-gauche manifeste à Paris", the far-left (extrême-gauche), is represented in the article with "Jean-Luc Mélenchon (the Left Party leader), Alexis Tsipras et Pierre Laurent (the PCF leader)". The demonstration has been initiated by the "Front de gauche, du Nouveau Parti anticapitaliste (NPA), d'un collectif d'associations et de plusieurs fédérations syndicales".

A last source : https://www.liberation.fr/france/2012/12/18/jean-luc-melenchon-a-rendu-le-parti-de-gauche-inaudible_868595/. In this article, the co-founder of the Left Party said that a left the party because Jean-Luc Mélenchon change the party to a far-left party : "La stratégie «Front contre Front» nous a «cornérisé» à l’extrême gauche".

Here a source, with a discussion between a journalist and a politologist : https://atlantico.fr/article/decryptage/melenchon-verts-et-gauche-de-la-gauche--echographie-d-un-echec-intellectuel-et-politique-en-gestation. The journalist ask if the party is far-left, and the politologist say that it's radical left. Entre Les Verts qui ne participent pas mais soutiennent le gouvernement, les tensions entre le PC et PG, etc… Le problème de l'extrême gauche réside-t-il dans ses divisions ? Sont-elles conciliables ? Eddy Fougier : Je ne parlerai pas d'extrême gauche à propos du PC et du PG et encore moins à propos d'Europe Ecologie Les Verts, mais plutôt de gauche radicale.

Another source where the journalist say that Left Party (PG) is a far-left party: https://www.europe1.fr/politique/la-fete-de-lhuma-theatre-de-la-division-de-lextreme-gauche-2513641 La Fête de l’Huma, théâtre de la division de l’extrême gauche [...]   La constitution de listes communes PCF-PG-EELV pose problème. Dans les 13 nouvelles "super-régions", les négociations sont tendues.

 * what is your brief and neutral statement? At over 2,900 bytes, the statement above (from the tag to the next timestamp) is far too long for  to handle, and so it is not being shown correctly at Requests for comment/Politics, government, and law. The RfC may also not be publicised through WP:FRS until a shorter statement is provided. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 21:28, 12 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Should we update the political position into the infobox to "Radical left to far-left". Lsandre (talk) 21:42, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Then it needs to follow the directly: Legobot won't look for it way down here. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 22:38, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Two new sources from politologists which consider the party or the leader of the party as far-left:
 * Gérard Grunberg : http://www.slate.fr/story/19893/creation-partis-politiques
 * A l'extrême gauche, l'espace existe depuis longtemps. Le problème est plus celui de la fragmentation. Le NPA devrait survivre, mais restera minoritaire. Au contraire, pas sûr que le Parti de Gauche reste après Mélenchon.
 * Philippe Raynaud said that Jean-Luc Mélenchon leader of "Le Parti de gauche" is a far-left politic, in the book "L’extrême-gauche plurielle, Entre démocratie radicale et révolution", collection "Collection CEVIPOF-Autrement", isbn "2-7467-0856-6". Lsandre (talk) 21:09, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
