Talk:List of generic names of political parties

Article name edit

I don't think that these are "generic names" of political parties, but common names. Generic is something that is general or inclusive rather than specific, unique, or selective. I propose that the article be renamed List of common names of political parties. Comments? Ground Zero | t 14:33, 16 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Can someone disambiguate generic name for me, in the context of politics? Wbm1058 (talk) 17:59, 5 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
I think this edit summary translates it:

See Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2009 December 11#Category:Lists of political parties by generic name: Category:Lists of political parties by generic name moved to Category:Political party disambiguation pages. Perhaps this article page is redundant to that category and should be deleted. – Wbm1058 (talk) 04:39, 6 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
