"Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

Add 'Angry Goy II' to some other section, it's currently in the 'Opposition and criticism' section, when it's very much not opposed... 78.144.160.58 (talk) 16:25, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I mean this entirely constructively. It sucks. Overloaded, essentially zero inclusion criteria, it's a virtual waste bin to shoehorn any and every article with any purported ties to the nebulous "alt-right". I'm not conservative or sympathetic to the alt-right, but dumpsters like this give valid ammunition to conservative critics of Wikipedia. --Animalparty! (talk) 02:21, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Animalparty I agree. At least something like Template:neo-Nazism, if deeply flawed, is almost all defining and all Nazi stuff. This is just an arbitrary assortment of actual Neo-Nazis and miscellaneous far-right people several of whom aren't even notable for that. The problem is really just the word "alt-right", which is at best loosely understood.... not very good for templates. PARAKANYAA (talk) 02:59, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going through it for verifiability and removing any article that does not, at some point, say the words "alt-right" in reference to the article subject. We should have a higher bar, but this is an OK start. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:56, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Not done for now: I'm not sure where it sits in regards to WP:NPOV, but regardless I would prefer there to be consensus before it is added. Ultraodan (talk) 14:35, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
