Social Democratic Workers' Party (Netherlands)[edit]

An article with quite substantial info. With proprer language and reference check, it has possibility of becoming a featured article. --Soman 12:20, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Use of Wikipedia:summary style will make the article an easier read.
Lead and "Ideology & Issues" need expansion
Several sections are little more than lists
The lower and higher houses lists should be combined in a single table
Instead of the netherland politics template, there should be an {{Infobox Political Party}}

The netherland politics template maybe not be appropriate for individual parties like this. Circeus' suggestion of using {{Infobox Political Party}} looks good. This is the template used for historical Canadian parties: {{Infobox_Canada_Political_Party}}. Criteria 4 of the featured articles criteria states that articles require images. Try to get a party logo or create map of showing where there support came from or get historical photos of leaders or rallies. Integrate the "Trivia" section into the article. Use inline citations (see m:Cite/Cite.php) to show where the references were used. --maclean25 03:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Althought it's "my" article being reviewed, and don't want to get involved in the discussion, I have one point about images. The party did not have real logo, but it used campaign posters. The dutch [Institute for Social History] collects these posters. I've mailed them, but they mailed back that they themselves use images of which the copy right status is either unclear, or they just publish images of which some-one still holds copyright, but they have never gotten in trouble over it. So I was wondering what wiki-policy was on images which are 100 to 50 years old, but have uncertain copy-right status C mon 08:18, 20 March 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Political posters can be displayed in wiki articles as fair use images. --Soman 10:15, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

At worst, a photography of the posters being used is allright, unless I'm mistaken. Circeus 13:46, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
