The result was redirect‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ to List of political parties in Turkey. History is there if there's sourced material worth merging. There is no consensus to do so at the moment, but the redirect is a viable ATD Star   Mississippi  14:40, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

 * With a more precise search term, I could find some minor sourcing, , , as well as a few books. Given the era this party was active (it dissolved in 1999, while the WP article implies that it still exists), coverage is more likely to be offline. If heavily tweaked to filter out unrelated content, the Milliyet archive gives 13 articles where this party is in some way mentioned. I don't think it's a far stretch to think that this passes the GNG, given that it is one of the few parties ever that was openly associated with the PKK. ~Styyx Talk ? 07:39, 27 June 2023 (UTC)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Styyxie (talk • contribs)
 * Comment well far-left Turkish parties are an alphabeti spaghetti of the same terms used in a different order over and over again, so that organisations with similar or even identical names at different times may or may not be the same organisation. Looking at the Milliyet archive a number of the stories date from 1992 and 1993, demonstrating that there was an organisation with this name in those years, but since the subject of this article wasn’t founded until 1994, they can’t be the same one.

 * in addition the three additional sources indicated by Styx are just passing mentions. Some of the book refs may be more substantal but only snippets are showing so I can’t tell. Anyway there’s no question the party existed but I’m still not seeing any in-depth coverage. Perhaps there’s a suitable redirect target such as List of political parties in Turkey where this party could be added. Mccapra (talk) 21:44, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
