Inclusion of FOKUPERS as a source

Latest comment: 1 month ago1 comment1 person in discussion

There's a couple instances here where using FOKUPERS as a source is problematic. Using them to cite the date of their founding is absolutely fine, but this segment, which is cited to FOKUPERS, has a promotional tone:

This new structure reflects Fokupers' evolution into an organisation that is more formalised and provides intergrated support, combining legal aid, psychosocial services, community education, as well as empowerment initiatives that are survivor-led.

And this segment implies that the organization had a "lead"ing role in a particular policy change, which may be true, but an independent source not affiliated with FOKUPERS should be cited here:

In 2002, it helped lead civil society campaigns for the adoption of the Law Against Domestic Violence (Lei Kontra Violénsia Doméstika, LKVD), that was enacted in 2010. This later contributed to spread the law across municipalities.

The other instances where FOKUPERs are cited are fine. Amatmilen (talk) 19:01, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
