Talk:Science for the People

Shorten long quotes
The extremely-long quotes should be shortened. I'm not sure if there is an official rule, but direct quotes that are more than about 10 lines long should be avoided in encyclopedic articles. Spylab 14:24, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Science for the people mag.jpg
Image:Science for the people mag.jpg 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 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.

Organization identifies as left-wing
User:generalrelative, Science for the People identifies as part of the "broader-left" on it's own website. I would imagine this is sufficent to label the group as "left-wing" if not socialist. https://scienceforthepeople.org/2018/04/12/dual-nature-of-science/ 2600:1012:B049:3409:2C3A:43A1:4B7C:1ED4 (talk) 21:26, 10 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Aha, thanks. I'd suggest that a statement saying basically just what you've said –– Science for the People states on its website that it identifies as part of the "broader-left". –– belongs in the article body. I'm not sure that a simple self-designation is enough to put it in the lead though. Generalrelative (talk) 21:29, 10 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Update: I went and added the content that I believe is DUE, as stated above. Generalrelative (talk) 21:44, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
