Dead links/twitter as source

Regarding this revert, do not remove a source merely because it is a dead link, per WP:LINKROT. Likewise, do not use self-published content, such as twitter or other social media as a reliable source, per WP:SPS. Summarize according to reliable sources, not first-hand knowledge or social gossip. Grayfell (talk) 02:55, 22 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You guys forgot to add that they're cannibals eating unborn fetuses... Gosh the level of propaganda on Wikipedia is beyond levels previously thought impossible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.78.233.59 (talk) 08:08, 6 August 2020 (UTC) :KeK. --Anon805 (talk) 21:44, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ZOG claims?

So you're really just going to say that Patriot Front supports the ZOG 'conspiracy theory' on the basis of what? An ADL article without sources? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 1.43.151.33 (talk) 01:50, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a better source, reference, or citation to offer? SoftwareThing (talk) 21:24, 25 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that would be the point. If you don't have a good source, reference, or citation to offer, then maybe don't include unsubstantiated information in the article.

Vandalism in the Real World

The group's Nazi members also do vandalism in the real world. This Nazi vandalism was performed in the San Gabriel Mountains along a hiking trail. The vandalism was re-sealed with wood putty to seal the tree against fungus and beetle to save the tree. It might be informative to show this in the extant article to fully appreciate the scope of what these National Vanguard / Patriot Front . et al. do against the United States.

Semi-protected and false information (and minor edits)

Alright, so this page is semi-protected until July 11th, but I have noticed quite a few things that should be changed, and would also suggest additional information to be added. One minor thing to start off with: "Penske Corporation trucks" should be changed to "Penske Trucks" with the link on the word "Penske" not Penske Corporation. Second, there is only one source/reference, which said reference is unreliable at best. For example, I do not believe they shouted "the election was stolen" nor did they demand a recount of the 2020 election, that just isn't what Patriot Front does, they have never done it before, and they do not even support Donald Trump. Thus, all references to Donald Trump and the 2020 presidential election should be removed. As well, they did not use Smoke bombs and flares to cover their retreat, nor did they even leave town or were run out. As far as I have heard they were indeed chased, there were altercations with Patriot Front on the defensive, but the entire group was not chased out, they did continue their march. Only a few groups or stragglers were ever chased and harassed, the entire force was not removed from the town by locals. Suffice it to say, the march was "successful" for Patriot Front, they continued their march and reached their objective and then left, there were no significant actions done by either the front or the locals and "Antifa" groups. It was a simple, long, but simple flash demonstration with a few protestors, not some resounding anti-fascist victory, Patriot Front did not run away, it is a biased an inaccurate claim, the article should be edited to reflect that or bias removed all together.

Patriot Front will no doubt publish a promotional video regarding the event in a month, so said video will prove that they did indeed give their speech (they always give a speech at the end of their marches). The longer the distance of time passes after the march, the more of the truth and the actual facts will surface, but either way, these facts can not surface until the page is corrected, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Modern MarcAntony (talk • contribs) 01:40, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
