User:UNSC Trooper/Userboxes/Anti-Nazi National Socialism


Offensive userboxes that violate WP:POLEMIC (“Very divisive or offensive material not related to encyclopedia editing”) and WP:UBCR (“Userboxes must not be inflammatory or divisive”). Advocacy of fascism does not seem appropriate on this encyclopedia, and similar fascist infoboxes have been deleted. Toa Nidhiki05 14:20, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment - I think that one box is listed twice. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:38, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Neutral - I don't see any advocacy of violence. I find anti-Nazi National Socialism to be incomprehensible.  National socialism was never socialistic, and I don't know what it means except Nazism.  The other userboxes, like the userboxes opposing fascism, look like expressions of undesirable ideologies that are not necessarily violent and are on the margins of free expression.  Robert McClenon (talk) 14:38, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Nazis and fascists are not typically welcome to edit here and their opinions or viewpoints are not welcome as well. Toa Nidhiki05 14:41, 10 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Weak Delete on further thinking. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:44, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Per WP:POLEMIC and a violation of WP:UBCR which says Wikipedia is not an appropriate place for propaganda, advocacy, or recruitment of any kind, commercial, political, religious, or otherwise, opinion pieces on current affairs or politics, self-promotion, or advertising. If we start allowing such userboxes, where do we finish? Britishfinance (talk)
 * Delete Fascists are not welcome here. &#8213; Susmuffin Talk 17:39, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's a slippery slope to delete only some political userboxes, as an RfC explicitly opposed deleting all of them. I'd support restoring the other fascist userboxes that have been deleted. w umbolo   ^^^  20:56, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - I disagree with the idea of vetting which political views are permissible to express or requiring that these views be "comprehensible". Advocating for a fascist/nationalist viewpoint in our articles is a Bad Thing per WP:NONAZIS, but a simple userpage banner is OK. –dlthewave ☎ 22:25, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Nazis deserve no platform. Not anywhere and certainly not on a repository of knowledge like Wikipedia. We must do absolutely nothing to make nazis or their supporters feel welcome here. Simonm223 (talk) 16:17, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete, WP:NOFUCKINGNAZIS. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 04:50, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete, I have reviewed each box and except for the first one they are organizations related to the Nazis or Japanese fascism, or part of the fascist movement's origins in the 1920s. The "national socialism without Nazism" argument appears specious and hard to define. The Iron Guard one is particularly misleading, as the userbox uses "Legionnaire" (widely used by other organizations) instead of Iron Guard. RobDuch (talk·contribs) 06:08, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
