[edit] Non-neutral language

There is a fair amount of non-neutral language used in this article, much of it ideological in nature and taken from Trotskyist theoretical texts and thinking. That would not be a problem, except that the language used is in a way that is non-neutral. For example, saying "The ILCWI believes that workers are oppressed by capitalism." is probably acceptable, while "Workers are oppressed by capitalism." The first is non-neutral attribution of opinion and analysis to an organization; the second is a statement of opinion masquerading as fact. (Similarly, an article on capitalism which says "Workers are not oppressed by capitalism" would also be non-neutral.) Some copy-editing should take take of this. Indeed, I'm surprised that direct quotations from ILCWI literature are not used more liberally in this article. Rather than writing an article about what ILCWI believes, it would be better to quote ILCWI itself. - Tim1965 (talk) 02:10, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I don't get your problem. The article is very factual. It describes exactly what the ILC is.

I removed the POV tag. Rediculous to have it to start with. DavidMIA (talk) 05:01, 5 May 2008 (UTC)davidMIA
