Marxist-Leninist Party of Austria

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

The party is absolutely non-notable, never contested an election as far as I am aware, and has no well-known members that I know of. — Nightstallion 13:22, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep This is an existing party, with a long history and a largish article available on the German language Wikipedia. There's more to politics than contesting elections and when deleting political parties one should err on the side of caution. --Martin Wisse 13:56, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep notable feature in the Austrian left. The German article is well sourced, and material could be translated to expand this one, perhaps even make it a FAC? --13:59, 1 October 2007 (UTC)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soman (talk • contribs)

 * Mh. Okay, fair enough, consider the AfD withdrawn as far as I'm concerned; you've got a point. — Nightstallion 14:22, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. MLPÖ was one of the first maoistic parties in the western world and still exists on a small level. The party contested one election and has several well-known members (former members of KPÖ). For more information see the german article (Marxistisch-Leninistische Partei Österreichs).Sf67 14:50, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
