This phrase makes no sense. I know what each of these three words mean, or are intended to mean, but why are they joined here. How about 'arbitration social debatism' instead? Just as useful.

"Was"

Bernard Coard is still alive. I believe he was just released from prison... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.108.156.47 (talk) 18:50, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

1. Is there any more on his wife Phyllis, who I understand was born in Jamaica and also held a position in the People's Revolutionary Government? 2. The 1979 revolution is described as "bloodless". I have seen reference to "one intentional death" when an officer in the army was shot dead when he went to investigate the burning of the True Blue Barracks. This implies that there were other (unintentional) deaths. But no details are available.

Maurice Bishop's Death

The section detailing Coard's role in Bishop's death is without citation, despite a source (Zunes) which does not detail the claims put forth. Given that Coard is a living person, I don't believe it appropriate to include uncited claims as serious as these, especially as they are directly refuted by Coard himself. Those paragraphs warrant removal. Alexmunger (talk) 02:24, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Given lack of response, I am removing that section as it is potentially libelous, improperly sourced, and an inappropriate accusation, especially within a BLP. Alexmunger (talk) 15:38, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
