From what I can see in the sandbox draft, the article has not been updated beyond a description of the events in 1931 that led to the resignation of Chaim Weizmann as president of the World Zionist Organization. There is also a good description of the aims of Revisionist Maximalism but it should be explained in greater detail. The source used is reliable and recent, but it will be necessary to find more sources in order to develop a more detailed analysis of Revisionist Maximalism. I think that it would be helpful to focus on the main ideas that are encompassed by Revisionist Maximalism and to add a primary source by one of the main thinkers involved in Revisionist Maximalism. If there was a more detailed description of the goals that were laid out by Abba Ahimeir, I think that would make the article much more substantial. In addition, it might be helpful to explain his transition from being sympathetic to communism to becoming sympathetic to nationalism. The most important thing to do to start in my opinion would be to look back at the source by Shlaim and develop a more substantial description of the ideologies of the individuals involved in Revisionist Maximalism, the history of Revisionist Maximalism, and perhaps a description of how the ideas of Revisionist Maximalism led to the ideas and policies of Likud later on. However, overall, the source by Shlaim is reliable and has a lot of valuable information on the topic. It will be necessary to delve into the ideas in the article more fully.
