Talk:Anarchism in Cyprus

Additional Sources for Expanding the Article

Thank you for starting this article. I have no time to contribute to it, but there is a list of reliable and up-to-standard sources that can be used to expand it. They can be found here: https://cyfootnotes.blogspot.com/2022/11/the-extra-parliamentary-radical-milieu.html --Piklachou (talk) 23:06, 3 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, @Piklachou! The main ones from that list are already in the article and the other ones are dissertations/theses which Wikipedia doesn't use, since those sources lack the vetting of peer or other editorial review. czar 12:47, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your response. In reference to these sources and usage in Wikipedia I can give a brief summary. In terms of sources, PhD theses are accepted by Wikipedia, because they have to go through a rigorous review process with an external and internal examiner and meet standards akin to peer-reviewed publications. The PhD theses here contain great detail, although sadly the most important one is available only in Greek. The Master thesis (Demarcating the ‘Cypriot Core’) can also be used, because it also went through such a process and is a published thesis on the University of Amstedam database (the university is a strict one and applies a review process to its Master’s theses also, which is not common outside the Dutch system of higher education). Other sources, such as peer-reviewed academic articles, contain references to anarchism/anti-authoritarianism in Cyprus and can fill-in factual information from the 2000s onwards. Some of the non-academic sources listed can also be used (especially magazine articles reflecting on the history of anarchism) but they can only be utilised to state factual information and if they contradict academic work, the latter is deemed superior. Blogposts, interviews and video presentations are out of the question, and could only be used to include direct quotes from a primary source, but that can be acceptable only in very detailed articles on Wikipedia where such a use could be excused, which is not the case here. Pafsanias Karathanasis' 2017 PhD thesis is the most important and detailed source, but is sadly available at present only in Greek. --Piklachou (talk) 13:01, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Destubbing

@AnarchistHistory: Hey there, hope you're well. Thanks for creating this article a few months back. I was wondering if you'd be interested in expanding it a wee bit to include more detail? The European Destubathon is currently ongoing, so we're looking to expand articles such as this one. --Grnrchst (talk) 15:35, 9 April 2025 (UTC)
