The New Worker

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Merge into New Communist Party of Britain: Written more like a copy-and-paste job by members and activists themselves of this 'so-called' (i.e., not actually registered with the Electoral Commission here in the UK) New Communist Party (NCP). Tone certainly overtly if not entirely promotional. An  obscure  (and judging from the fact that all of its pages (invariably only the front page) are directly from The New Worker website itself, as scanned JPGs ) 'newsletter' in its own right (and not even a newspaper here in the UK, unlike say The Morning Star or The Socialist Worker), and which is  invariably  associated with and connected to the NCP, with absolutely  NO  semblance or pretence of independence between the two (one and the same)... there is no reason, except for deliberate promotion via the means of Wikipedia, why there needs two separate articles. This newsletter is so obscure that literally NO non-support/activist independent sources are available on-line! (And that is the 'polite' version! "List of left and radical bookshops that sell the New Worker." I mean, really!) 194.207.146.167 (talk) 10:38, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Merge per nom. I don’t think it’s true that this is ‘not even a newspaper’ though it’s not widely sold. I’m not clear why a merge proposal came to AfD though. Mccapra (talk) 22:14, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge per Nom. The sources to support a page just don't exist.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:38, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge, can a friendly:) (or not so friendly:) admin please close this quickly as it shouldn't be here, the nominator could have carried out the merge themselves (be WP:BOLD), or created a discussion on the Talk:New Communist Party of Britain in line with WP:MERGE.
