Talk:Criticism of monarchy

NPOV and OR Tags

I've tagged this article for possible breach of the Neutral Point of View principle, as well as Original Research. On the NPOV issue, the recent additions to the article strike me as very one-sided, and written from an advocacy perspective. On the issue of Original Research, the statements that monarchies are contrary to the various human rights charters strike me as the editor's own perspective. Using a primary source as authority, especially a general legal document, is questionable, if there is no indication that the legal documents have in fact been interpreted by a court in the way suggested by the editor.

I've removed the "Incompatibility" sections, since they look very much like original research. If the editor who put them in has reliable sources making the connections between these charters and these monarchies violating them, they need to show us what they are. If they're coming up with it on their own, it obviously can't stay. Egsan Bacon (talk) 02:14, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

And I've removed the same text again. Firstly, because the "cite" provided is from the website [1], a petition site, certainly not a RS. (Here's a discussion showing consensus about not using petition sites as sources [2].) I also cannot help but note that when I went to the main page of that site, the top one on recent petitions was for the reintroduction of tuna pizza at pizza hut ("Pour la réintroduction des pizzas au thon chez pizza hut"). Secondly, because the text appears to be a combination of things directly from the petition and things the cite would not support saying even if it was a usable source (which it is not.)

No criticism of the British/Japanese/Thai monarchy?

Seems a bit odd the article about anti-monarchism makes no mention of some of the biggest and oldest monarchy in the world. Even though the Queen herself is generally beloved, there still is plenty of British Republicanism. Also similar situations in Japan and Thailand. Aceus0shrifter (talk) 16:39, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
