Typo

Dave, to apostrophise one posessive "its" is a typo. Two is carelessnes's! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.112.144.74 (talk) 17:18, 10 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello to all our ex-friends in the Centre Party! It is an unethical abuse of the Wikipedia concept to sully it's pages with untruthful black propaganda. I promise upon my honour not to stoop to your level of wilful inaccuracy, but, if you insist on continuing to vandalise our entry, I shall at least tell truths you would prefer to gloss over in unsympathetic terms in your entry. The decent thing would be to call a truce with your edit of yours and our edit of ours, with NO LIES and a link to the other entry for the benefit of users wishing to use Wikipedia for it's intended purpose.

David Rotherham, JDA Secretary.

JDA Page protected

Hi Dave,

I have added a semi-protection to the page to prevent anonymous abuse (have had to do this to a few pages).

Darius

Nice one, Darius.

Now that we have got our pages into a shape we can live with between us, we shall just have to be vigilant.

Dave.

Capricious Individual Policies?

Not sure if that is not POV, whilst I grant you the vast majority of people are elected without ever giving any intention of what they intend to do this is generally because they intend to do nothing!

Perhaps this could be altered to read 'without a clearly defined unified set of aims and ambitions'?

I leave alterations up to your good self however. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.20.179.211 (talk) 19:20, 8 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Thanks to Tony the Prof for tidying up and finding references - your effort is noted and appreciated.--Daverotherham 04:24, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bias

I have marked where citations are required for certain statements if we can get some references for these points then it would be great.

Infobox

Three inexplicable errors:- Geoff Southern stepped down as leader in May 2006, as noted in the body of the article, the colours have always been blue and red against a white background - no authentic JDA materials have ever used a red colour scheme and, although some individual members would proudly describe themselves as socialists, no agreed party policy has ever had any explicit or implicit basis in socialist principles. The symbolism of the party logo, with the red being kept to the centre by the surrounding blues is actually an accurate reflection of the reality. The party's position does indeed meet the definition of centre-left in the linked article, however. Daverotherham 14:52, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the corrections. The leader of a party, afaik, is the leader of a party in the house, that would mean it would have to be either Geoff Southern, Shona Pitman or Judy Martin, however if the JDA have not had an election then they can not have a leader. Steve Pallett is the Chairman, and thus controls (with the rest of the board) the party outside of the house. I assumed the JDA worked in this way, sorry. RichardColgate 04:45, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the compliment of listing me as Chief Executive Officer, but actually the running of the party is a genuine team effort and I cannot rightfully steal the credit. I have therefore deleted the entry.Daverotherham 15:24, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changes 2nd August 2007 - citations still needed

I've tried to just change the flow a little, add recent events, and a few more references, a couple of citations are still needed as below. Looking at the 2005 election results it wasn't as bad as all that, three and almost five members elected. RichardColgate 21:39, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Manifesto

If anyone has an online link to the election manifesto of 2005 that would be a great help. RichardColgate 21:31, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Jdalogo.JPG

Image:Jdalogo.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

NPOV

Can anyone who has done major work on this article confirm that it is written from a Wikipedia:Neutral point of view? That would generally mean by people who do not work for the organisation.
