Logo[edit]

Should we have the L5I logo here? They are just one part, perhaps a minority, of those who call for a fifth international? I suggest we cut it. --Duncan 14:57, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest we keep it as it is quite likely to be the logo of an international if one is formed, it is similar in style to fourth international logos. Better an article with a picture than without. incka 21:50, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

When was Lyndon LaRouches call for a Fifth International?[edit]

The article states that after LaRouches call for a Fifth International, it lasted untill 1994 before the call was renewed by other parties. Now this is informative in a slightly half-measure kind of way, as we are not told in the article what year or even what decade LaRouche made his try at getting one going; and consequently are left wondering how long a timespan that represents to 1994. -- Cimon Avaro; on a pogostick. 13:02, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can only find a comment by Tim Wohforth that LaRouche's resignation letter from the SWP said a a new international was needed; that's not a real call for a new international, and is not notable. I will cut it until we find a reference that really suggests a serious cal for a Firth International. --Duncan 15:15, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cut of "one Maoist group has made the call"[edit]

I have cut the comment that "However at least one Maoist group has made the call, which shows that it recognised the Trotskyist Fourth International as a significant body of far left thought, even if they do not agree with its strategy and tactics." I think this is a reference to the marching of a Maoist group alongside the L5I, as reported by the L5I [1] which is not notable, and doesn't really support the claim. --Duncan 21:19, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can't remember where I read or heard this. My apologises. Please note that the reversal also changed some other changes I had made to the article, most notably correcting the 'Europe based' part before L5I. incka 21:48, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

International Trotskyist Labor Tendency[edit]

I don't think this group exists. I think someone's just invented the page and the organisation. The British group is the "Workers Front Organization" -- with US spelling??!? I think it's a phoney. And certainly not notable even if it's one or two people. So I propose to cut that. --Duncan 21:28, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:L5I RED.PNG[edit]

Image:L5I RED.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Previous Internationals timeline?[edit]

Item #2 says, The "Second International", was founded in 1889 after the expulsion of Anarchists from the First International and its subsequent dissolution in 1916. This doesn't make sense; it implies that an event in 1889 happened after an event in 1916. Could somebody please rewrite this sentence to make the causality relationship more clear? -- RoySmith (talk) 21:26, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
