Party name change
editDue to a lawsuit, the party has changed its name to BIJ1 (from "bij een" = together). Source: https://www.telegraaf.nl/nieuws/1369253/partij-sylvana-simons-omgedoopt-tot-bij1. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matroesjka (talk • contribs) 15:52, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
The information on this page is outdated. The party has taken up a new name, BIJ1, among others. Levuspelus (talk) 18:21, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
I need some help changing this page's name, and consequently its url. How do I go about that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Levuspelus (talk • contribs) 19:02, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- user:Levuspelus, if this is true and the party has changed its name please explain this in the article, while also adding a supporting citation from a reliable source. Once this is done to change the name of the page simply hover over the "more" button (next to the Wikipedia search box in the top right corner of the page) and select "move". Then add the new name and the reason for why you are changing it. The url will change automatically. Helper201 (talk) 19:35, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
Party name and ideology
editMy changes on writing Bij1 as BIJ1 are reversed. So are my changes about changing the ideology of social democracy into anticapitalism. Why is that?
1. BIJ1 is written in capitals in the statutes of the organisation and the party always writes their party name in capitals.
2. Secondly, party leader Sylvana Simons declared in multiple interviews that the party is not socialdemocratic but anticapitalist. She even declared this at a youth event for the young members of the socialdemocratic Partij van de Arbeid (Workers Party).
Reversing my comments would be incorrect. EmilyJ77 (talk) 23:49, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
Futhermore, BIJ1 is a feminist party. Why is that deleted? Ones own political opinions should not termine the outcome of what information we edit on this page. EmilyJ77 (talk) 23:54, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- You've been removing sourced information and swapping it with unsourced information, you cant do that! Vif12vf/Tiberius (talk) 00:58, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- Can't we put the sources together? Clearly, BIJ1 is an anticapitalist party, is written in capitals. All the information I supplied was sourced. EmilyJ77 (talk) 16:50, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- I have added some sources. Here is a source about why BIJ1 should be written in capitals: [1] The Kamer van Koophandel is the Dutch national register for companies and associations. Also the Kiesraad, the institute that registersall Dutch political parties writes BIJ1 in capitals [2], which clearly shows that BIJ1 is written in capitals. EmilyJ77 (talk) 17:23, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Marxist ideology?
editRegarding this edit, I have read WP:Secondary and I agree that both VPRO and VN are secondary sources. I also agree that we should seek verifiability, not truth.
The VPRO-source only mentions some general facts about marxism, nothing specific and nothing at all about BIJ1. Sadly I cannot read the whole of the VN-source without a subscription, which is why I will not revert the edit. With regard to the VN-source, I will, however, point to this guideline: WP:RSOPINION, which in my opinion prohibits listing this opinion piece as a source for the BIJ1-ideology.
But my point is that even if we do find one reliable source that describes the party ideology as marxist, that would be too thin to conclude that it is so. At best we could conclude that these sources say it is so. The majority of reliable sources do not say that BIJ1 is marxist, and I do not think it should be categorised as such.

- I will add an archive link to the VN ref, so everybody (that understands Dutch) can read it. With regards to the content:
- The VN piece is a column, but that does not mean it is entirely opinion. The writer qualifies certain stances as pertaining to an ideology. He represents his own opinion in an unrelated matter.
- The VPRO piece qualifies the entry of BIJ1 as part of a socialist surge.
- Most other ideologies listed are also covered by one ref, with one having no ref at all.
- The other refs for the infobox ideology section are far less reliable. (For example, OneWorld is an extremely biased source.) Some refs are not even articles but interviews.
- What you and I think is not important. Leontrooper (talk) 22:02, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
