Untitled
The name of this party was "Nuovo Partito Socialista Italiano" ("Nuovo PSI") and not "Partito socialista". See the Italian Wikipedia for reference. --Daviboz (talk) 12:58, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
Existence of this party
Does this party exist? There are sources that say this party and De Michelis went directly from Nuovo PSI to Italian Socialist Party (2007). This page should be deleted--Maremmano (talk) 21:42, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
- This party, consisting of the faction led by De Michelis of the NPSI, existed for a few months before merging into the PS/PSI. Unfortunately, the article was based on mainly one source: the webiste of the party, which is no longer available. I will look for other sources. --Checco (talk) 20:56, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
- But if it was only a faction of New PSI it wasn't a party. When De Michelis definitively abandoned the New PSI he directly joined to Socialist Party, he didn't found another Socialist Party--Maremmano (talk) 21:45, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
Contested deletion
This page should not be speedily deleted because there are four (Italian language) references that refer to the organisation that the article is about, evidence to the fact the organisation existed.--Autospark (talk) 14:40, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
- Which are the sources that show the existence of this party??? Also the user Checco has admitted that there aren't sources--Maremmano (talk) 14:55, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
We have the source we're looking for. The AfD should be closed and the article kept. --Checco (talk) 10:15, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
New title
I think that the established name Socialist Party (De Michelis) isn't a correct format. I think that a better name should be Socialist Party (Italy, 2007/II)--Maremmano (talk) 20:29, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
- I understand your point, but the name you are proposing is quite unusual for en.Wiki, while I'm quite sure there are cases of parties identified in their article's name by the leader's name. "Socialist Party (Italy, 2007/II)" would not even be formally correct as this party was launched before the Socialist Party that later changed its name into Italian Socialist Party. [For outsiders: Socialist Party (Italy, 2007) is a much precious and irreplaceable redirect to Italian Socialist Party (2007), that is why it can't be used as destination for this article, as it would be obvious to do.] --Checco (talk) 09:50, 4 July 2014 (UTC)]
Inappropriate Title
The title of this page is enough inappropriate, De Michelis wasn't the only leader of this political formation, Del Bue, too, was considered as leader. The disambiguation should concern a more precise date, a title such as Socialist Party (Italy, July 2007) would be certainly more appropriate --
- De Michelis was the main leader and the proposed name is not better than the current one, in my view. --Checco (talk) 23:06, 10 January 2017 (UTC)--Checco (talk) 23:06, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
- In your view... but in Wikipedia the POW is not relevant. The sources say that the split was led by Del Bue and De Michelis, it is a fact. The disambiguation of a page like this can be made only with the date, the name of one of the two leaders is inappropriate --talk) 23:24, 10 January 2017 (UTC)]
- If there are no other objections I'll move the page, De Michelis was not the main leader and the current title doesn't respect the standards about disambiguations --talk) 10:35, 15 January 2017 (UTC)]
- I have changed the title of this page following the "Wikipedia:Naming conventions (political parties)", also "Socialist Party (Italy, July 2007)" (name proposed by myself) probably was not correct, because the precise date of foundation is uncertain (on 7-8 July Del Bue was elected secretary of the NPSI). Following the Wikipedia rules in certain cases the name of the leader can be used as disambiguation, so probably the most correct title for this page is "Socialist Party (Mauro Del Bue)".--talk) 19:53, 13 May 2019 (UTC)]

- Wikipedia:Naming conventions (political parties) are not entirely clear. The project page reads: "In some cases political parties can be differentiated by the name of their party leader [...]. This is useful when the date of establishment is unclear, or when a party splinters and each claims to be the continuation of an original party". The example is that of a party's name including the country's name. Why shouldn't be "Party name (country, leader)"? The project page does not say no.
- This said, our case is different: a) the party's name does not include the country's name; b) the date of establishment is indeed clear (July 2007).
- Back in 2014, I supported the "Party name (leader)" format and I agreed with User:Ymblanter's move to "Socialist Party (De Michelis)": De Michelis was the party's real leader and, by the way, there is no need to cite the leader's first name. However, I am now oriented toward something like "Socialist Party (Italy, De Michelis)" or keeping "Socialist Party (Italy, July 2007). In the meantime, waiting for consensus to be formed, let's go back to the latter name.
- @User:Wololoo and User:Ymblanter: Please have a say. I am proposing three options. More can be added. --Checco (talk) 10:48, 14 May 2019 (UTC)]
- De Michelis was the most important member, but the secretary (and so leader) was Mauro Del Bue. "Socialist Party (De Michelis)" would be wrong for another reason: De Michelis was the leader (secretary) of another Socialist Party (talk) 12:11, 14 May 2019 (UTC)]

- @Wololoo: Well, then maybe the discussion should be on whether the page should be kept as is or merged within any other, and only if consensus is reached on that matter should we go to discuss what its title should be. I'm pretty much not seeing any consensus for the page to be left in its current status, and opinions about the necessity of a separate article on this topic seem to be converging towards the lack of it. If the article itself is not necessary, then the discussion on the title is a time-wasting effort. Impru20talk 20:24, 14 May 2019 (UTC)]

The WP page does not exclude the "Party name (country, month year)" format. I think it is perfectly consistent with what is written there. My preferred choice is to keep "Socialist Party (Italy, July 2007)". My second choice would be a move to "Socialist Party (Italy, 2007, De Michelis)". My third choice would be "Socialist Party (Italy, 2007, Del Bue)".Let's agree on the format first, then, if relevant, we can discuss on the leader. --Checco (talk) 10:07, 16 May 2019 (UTC)- Second thoughts! While I think that "Socialist Party (Italy, July 2007)" is OK with WP rules, I slightly prefer "Socialist Party (Italy, 2007, De Michelis)". Sorry about this, but I was a little bit confused. I have to say that I agree with ]

Proposal of merging

Keep the page autonomous
- Braganza (talk) 20:54, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
- Autospark (talk) 14:30, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- Three points. First, the NPSI's name and common name has always been "New Italian Socialist Party" (not "Socialist Party – New PSI", also the PRC's symbol reads "Communist Party – Refoundation", but we have always adopted "Communist Refoundation Party"). Second, I oppose merging this article into the one on the NPSI: Wikipedia is great especially beacuse of this niche articles and, for the sake of readers, it is quite better to have distinct articles. Third, also for the sake of readers, this article should be easily linked in other articles, like Italian Socialist Party (2007) (where that link should stay in the infobox). --Checco (talk) 08:38, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- I don't understand the connection of your first point with the merging discussion (I specify: I don't understand the edit war that has been happening in the last weeks between Checco and Wololoo, and I am not an expert of the sources enough to try and resolute it, unfortunately). Also the third point is not really a point for not merging (I see it more as a point for merging, since the history of this unofficial "party" could be easily summarized in a subsection of one of the other articles, and the link from other pages could link to the subsection). So you are actually just saying you don't want to merge because you like small articles. --talk) 09:09, 6 July 2019 (UTC)]
- I just answered to what the proponent said. What he/she deems "clear" is actually inaccurate. That was my first point.
- I am not edit warring. Along with User:Autospark, I am just defending the established versions of this article and the one on the NPSI. As I have said many times, when there is disagreement on a new edit, that edit can be discussed in talk page and, in the meantime, the established version should stay, per Wikipedia:Consensus. Additionally, "a lack of consensus commonly results in retaining the version of the article as it was prior to the proposal or bold edit". I do not see how all this can be difficult to understand. Hopefully, you will help me in moderating the discussion and defending established versions.
- This said, yes, I am an inclusionist and I like small articles on small parties. This one, which included two MEPs, was instrumental in the foundation of the current-day PSI. My third point is that it is much easier for readers to keep track of mergers if there are distinct articles. I am not the only one opposed to the merger, fortunately. I would like to hear also the arguments of the other people, as I was the only to explain. --Checco (talk) 09:40, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
- @talk) 20:24, 6 July 2019 (UTC)]
- What you do not realise is that the issue is about WP:CommonName and WP:Consensus. In Wikipedia "New Italian Socialist Party" was considered the party's most common name and was adopted as article's title before the supposed name change. As your bold edits have been opposed by at least two users, User:Autospark and I, you should seek consensus first, instead of insisting on unconsensual edits. --Checco (talk) 06:18, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
