Was this article written by the propaganda arm of the EZLN?
Wow, just wow. I've always complained about the Left-leaning slant and Liberal bias of Wikipedia but this article is outright absurd; does anyone notice anything even remotely weird or wrong with the following statements from the infobox?:

"Results: Zapatistas capture public imagination, inspire visions of alternative futures" [So stunning so brave they're real life superheroes] "Uprising dissipated as a result of strategic withdrawal [Not a defeat mind you] by the EZLN" "Zapatistas recuperated dispossessed land and protect practice of autonomy" [They're champions of the poor and the oppressed of course]

Let's at least pretend this is not so shamelessly biased, let's make an effort how about that? --177.230.47.65 (talk) 23:41, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

Stupid Propaganda
I just got an alert stating that I would be banned if I continued to make "disruptive edits" to this propaganda article. Neutrality my rear! -2602:306:39D6:CBA0:4801:6180:F69D:F83 (talk) 21:19, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Unreliable sources?
@QueensanditsCrazy: Hi, I notice you recently added an unreliable sources tag to the article, but didn't provide an explanation either in the tag or the edit summary, which would be the responsible tagging etiquette. Could you explain why you put this tag here and what sources you think are unreliable? Thanks --Grnrchst (talk) 10:25, 10 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, I removed a web source that I couldn't find online (check my diff) and was concerned that other sources could be unfindable. Source 12 isn't a source; source 22 ain't bad but the relevant sentence we can quote from CONAPO (whatever that is, i assume it's a more reliable source than SIPAZ). Not sure if Source 9 is properly formatted but looks good; much of the rest looks reliable enough at first glance. Just wanted to call attention to the little bits that needed ironing out QueensanditsCrazy (talk) 13:07, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
