I did not find reliable and independent sources in a search in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. MarioGom (talk) 17:54, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Though Redspark openly supports the CPB-RF, the two are not associated, at least not as far as I can tell. Most of what's published about the party on RS comes from a brazilian newspaper named A Nova Democracia, also a supporter of the group. These two sources are definitely small and politically niche, but I know at least AND to be a reliable source. Woodsmokeblog, though, is a self-published source and including it was a mistake. Servir ao Povo de Todo Coração is the official website of the party, but I only used it as a source to their self-declared ideology, which I think is justified in this context.


 * If the article is to be deleted, I think the better argument is lack of notability. The CPB-RF is a small clandestine political party/proto-guerilla. It was mentioned on the article for Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, but only in passing, and unlike the Communist Party of Ecuador - Red Sun, it hasn't been responsible for any terrorist acts thus far. For these reasons, it has not attracted a lot of media attention other than as a footnote to more well known maoist groups, such as the Shining Path. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CityBreakingDown (talk • contribs) 19:30, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Servir ao Povo de Todo Coração can be used in the article (see WP:ABOUTSELF), but it does not count when measuring notability. Notability is measured, primarily, by reliable (and independent) sources that cover the topic in depth. I have doubts about A Nova Democracia reliability for notability purposes, but further comments by other editors are welcome. MarioGom (talk) 07:42, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Redirect back to the main Communist Part of Brazil page so the history of this page is kept for context. Potentially this fraction is added as a sub-heading/ note within the Communist Part of Brazil page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamzze (talk • contribs) 08:06, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
