Political positioning[edit]

Hello, a section on this would be helpful. Yug (talk) 08:30, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dimplomatic Russophilia???[edit]

Dimplomatic Russophilia??? What the heck is that? They are flaming Russophilists. If it looks like heck and it smells like heck, it must be the heck. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 00:00, 22 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Recent changes[edit]

Ideologies such as "social liberalism" and "social conservatism" weren't cited previously, however, an IP editor did add a citation that doesn't mention social liberalism for this party at all. The IP editor also added a supposed interview which is WP:PRIMARY (this party's website). Their edits have been reverted and in future these ideologies have to be properly sourced before getting added. Vacant0 (talk) 21:47, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Repressions section[edit]

the 'repressions' is poorly sourced and not noteworthy with the exception of the grenade attack. Should the last sentence of it be moved to the history section and teh rest removed??20:18, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Popularity of Parties (Parts of Intro should be removed!)[edit]

From the Intro:

"According to various sociological studies carried out at the end of 2020, Opposition Platform — For Life was the most popular Ukrainian political party.[6][7][8]"

What does that even mean? In addition to being questionably sourced, the popularity o parties is measured by success at the ballot box, not by some Russian 'sociologists'!"

This should really be removed.

Agreed - of the three sources provided, one is a Facebook post, and one is from a Russian state-owned news agency (RIA Novosti). The remaining source is a poll from the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology which (at least at face value) looks like a legitimate source. However, claiming that a party is 'the most popular Ukrainian political party' on the basis of one opinion poll, despite elections in the previous and same year flatly contradicting this claim, seems very strange to me. I have removed this claim in the absence of more robust evidence.

Banned vs suspended status[edit]

@Panam2014: The reason why I clarified that this party has been suspended and not banned (which I believe to be exclusive in this case) is because the Opposition Platform party itself has not been outlawed nor delisted, only that the party functions have been banned. If the party had indeed been outlawed or delisted, then the 'banned' status in the infobox would make sense. I don't believe that the limiting of the parties activities means that the party is banned.
