Essentially censorship?

Why was this text removed? It seems like you are purposefully editing things out, for biased reasons. I want to try to avoid an edit war, so I'll not revert it until I've collected some opinions here :) - John F Baker Icon-UK.png Talk/Royal Navy 21:37, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

You know full well it is related to what you all call a RL Nazi party that you guys try to stereotype the party to, it is offensive to the party, and people against Nazism... Icon-United Kingdom.png Julius Caligula Talk/Projects
I don't know why you are bringing Nazism into this. Sir_Nick specifically said that you refer to the party as British Worker's Party occasionaly. Your logo is even "BWP". Why are you purposefully removing this info from the article? - John F Baker Icon-UK.png Talk/Royal Navy 22:00, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
The logo is being created as you complain, it isn't the same party, kinda like British Reform Party to United Kingdom Reform Party... Icon-United Kingdom.png Julius Caligula Talk/Projects
Considering you're using the same logo, the same people, the same leadership and th same policies, I'd say your name change is purely a superficial affair. Regardless, it is no reason to censor out a part of the UKWP's factual history.

"It is also occasionally known as the British Worker's Party." - Unless in game references are provided that the party is called like that by more than a few persons, then I would leave it out because it is not referenced. Also, there's a question of notability of that statement. Why it would be interesting for an average reader to know that the party is referred by some individuals by using a "questionable offensive" name. --Belea2008 08:24, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

The logo used BWP, the party was CALLED BWP, the party leader Sir_Nick said so himself, and if ever the party was refered to as the British Worker's Party, that sentence would explain the connection. - John F Baker Icon-UK.png Talk/Royal Navy 09:10, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

And in game, its name is not BWP - http://www.erepublik.com/en/party/uk-workers-party-3205/1 - again, do you have references that we can use in order to support that statement? Just saying... --Belea2008 09:49, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
I can upload the logs of the party leader saying so, and you can see clearly that up until yesterday, the logo said "BWP". - John F Baker Icon-UK.png Talk/Royal Navy 09:53, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
