I would suggest that the prepending of descriptive terms such as "socialistic" as per [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Gordon_Brown&diff=510055&oldid=504074 this] edit is a mistake. While it is clearly intended as either descriptive or pejorative, it's unencyclopediac, and if this is allowed, what's to stop people adding "capitalistic" or other such pointless descriptors to other entries? In principle, encyclopedias should have an absolute minimum of adjectives in their articles. [[User:BenHur|BenHur]] 12:13, 3 September 2008 (EDT)

: Sorry if I've offended you but living in the UK I am well aware that it is socialistic - it was based on the communist models in operation in the USSR - and to call it anything else would be to mislead those American youths likely to make use of this encyclopedia.[[User:Malakker|Malakker]] 12:18, 3 September 2008 (EDT)
