Democratic socialism

Once again a plea to not be so quick with removal rather than tagging. I have about 100 tabs open from Google scholar with descriptions of William Morris, GDH Cole, and the Socialist League as libertarian socialist. Peter Hain is also a secondary source for that claim, so I don't see why he's been removed as a primary source. I'm travelling next week, but will return to this in September.

Boric

What was wrong with the Boric text?

In Chile, Gabriel Boric founded Social Convergence in 2018, bringing together the Autonomist Movement, Libertarian Left and other libertarian socialist groups.^[1] Boric, described as libertarian socialist by others and himself, was elected president in 2021.^[2]^[3]^[4]

BobFromBrockley (talk) 16:03, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The first and third reference do support that he self-identifies as such....IMO that should be kept. I didn't see anything about others identifying him as such. This would be important if supported, but we can't make a major unsourced statement. North8000 (talk) 17:09, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
