Talk:Identitarian movement

Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... (I will be improving it, it is a huge movement across europe and has an international headlines, is a hot topic within anti-fascist organisation, see Searchlight Magazine article, I will be gathering the links. But you you spend a little time researching it you'll see) --AWT (talk) 18:53, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

I have updated the references on the page. Also, it had a german wiki article: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identitäre_Bewegung and https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=Génération+identitaire

needs work

article either needs expanding or deleting.

info links comprise almost as much as the article — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oxr033 (talk • contribs) 23:00, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

I, too, don't see a well-sourced article unlike Bloc Identitaire. Either someone fixes it or we should consider deleting it. Jason from nyc (talk) 19:10, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

what is the movement about

This article says where the movement is derived from but has zero description of what exactly it *is*. What do Indentitarians believe? Presumably someone looking up "Identitarian" would like to know this. The articles on Fascism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism) and Anti-Fascism both do a decent job of explaining these movements.

I'm not knowledgeable enough on the subject to re-write the introduction section, but I think someone who feels up to it should.

ECPR conference link

A recent Washington Post article recommends this paper as a primer on the Identitarian movement.

• Vejvodová, Petra (September 2014). The Identitarian Movement – renewed idea of alternative Europe (PDF). ECPR General Conference. Brno, Czech Republic: Masaryk University, Faculty of Social Studies, Department of Political Science. 

I'm adding it to the article on WaPo's vetting. The DRAFT VERSION language makes me think there should be a newer version somewhere; however, in reading this version it seems to need just an english-language copyedit. I suspect news sources will corroborate most of it. / edg ☺ ☭ 18:06, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

White supremacist?

Under the section "In North America" it says
The head of the white nationalist National Policy Institute Richard B. Spencer is a self-described identitarian and promotes white supremacist views
There are 3 references, none of which seem to make mention of the claim. The fact that 3 templates were created for the references made me post here, rather than make the edits. --2601:CD:C104:17A0:A54E:4F52:B527:7AF3 (talk) 21:05, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

This has been discussed at length at Talk:Richard B. Spencer and multiple other talk pages. The sources (and several others) do support that the NPI promotes white supremacist views. We could add more, but we should avoid WP:CITECLUTTER, as it could itself be interpreted as form of editorializing. The overlap is very close, and these terms are often treated as euphemisms of each other. They should be weighed accordingly. Grayfell (talk) 21:35, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
