There has been persistent addition of "Category:Fascist organizations". I have removed this on the basis that the article text does not describe the subject as a fascist organisation. I am also not able to find a broad consensus in sources to describe the subject using these terms, as required by WP:CATDEF. Discuss. - Ryk72 ^talk 22:02, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Article source says that the organization was "based on the model of the Nazi storm troopers". -- 177.158.122.73 (talk) 22:20, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

But "based on the model of the German Sturmabteilung" is not the same as "fascist organization", and doesn't mean we can categorise this article's subject as such. To do so, we need to show that sources commonly and consistently define the subject as a "fascist organization", which is the bar set by WP:CATDEF. - Ryk72 ^talk 20:59, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
