Talk:Left Socialist-Revolutionaries

Old talk
"They in effect split from the main party and in the election to the Constituent Assembly often stood as left-SRs against the mainstream party (although with little electoral success)." Not completely true. The Left SR did not really stand as a seperate party in Assembly elections. The split happened during the elections and only became offical after. So in most areas you could only vote for the SR (no distinction between the Right SR or Left SR). 'Mainstream party' is POV due to its political meaning, 'main party' would be better. In the peasant soviet elections held after the split was fully completed both parties got about the same vote. Propose changing it.

"They in effect split from the main party. The split had not been completed before the Constituent Assembly elections, the first meaningful electoral test between the parties in the peasant soviets a few weeks after the Assembly elections showed the parties had roughly equal support in the peasantry."

"Many left-SRs joined the Soviet government after the Bolshevik revolution of October, 1917"

The Left SR party was a coalition partner in the Soviet Government. Will change this to;

"The Left SR party became the coalition partner of the Bolsheviks in the Soviet Government after the revolution of October, 1917"

Left Socialist Revolutionaries → Left Socialist-Revolutionaries – A few years back I moved this page from Left Socialist-Revolutionaries to its current name without discussion. I apologize for this and I know realize that the previous name was a more accurate translation. However I also think that "Left SRs" is the most commonly used name so we could also move this page to that. Charles Essie (talk) 19:35, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
