Talk:Joseph Stalin
From Conservapedia
"forced women to work in factories just like men" - Is the intent of this to say that women should not be working in factories and/or holding jobs that men hold? I would think that idea is somewhat passe now. The fragment should be removed from the article.--Dave3172 23:22, 7 March 2007 (EST)
- The statement is factual and I see no reason to delete. The reader can decide for himself whether forcing women to work in factories just like men is a good thing. --Aschlafly 23:24, 7 March 2007 (EST)
- I would think that anyone would agree that coercing anyone to work isn't a good thing. But the "just like men" part is opinion, not fact. That is what should be removed.--Dave3172 23:48, 7 March 2007 (EST)

Stalin's death
Following a stroke on 1 March 1953, Stalin died
Stalin may have actually been assassinated by other members of the Politburo who feared another 1938 style-purge growing out of the Doctor's Plot. RobS 17:49, 9 April 2007 (EDT)
Odd conclusion
The article says,
- Most of this, however, was pure propaganda ... Soviet growth was impressive. Between 1929 and 1937, 8,000 factories were constructed, average GDP growth was around 10%
Which of those two statements is true? Was it "pure propaganda," or a successful campaign of industrial development? -Harmil 12:25, 2 May 2007 (EDT)
Purges
I removed someone's addition of the subplot of Stalin's Okhranka file because it was tangential to the overview of the purges and too specific for this article. It should form its own entry if valid.
- I would suggest, if you think it is important, not to remove accurate additional information added by RobS, a sysop, and instead perhaps give it a sub-head, instead of just dumping enlightening information, that goes to their state of mind. Do you have some suggestions for this, other than making an entirely new article on this deal? --₮K/Talk 22:45, 28 March 2008 (EDT)
Motives
Xgood, please work with me to develop your ideas on Stalin's motives. --Ed Poor Talk 16:31, 15 May 2008 (EDT)
Tsaritsyn spelled wrong in the introduction
It currently says Tsaritsen, while correctly the town is spelled Tsaritsyn or Tsaritsin (Царицин in Russian).SimonW 11:53, 22 May 2008 (EDT)
