I'd like to re-arrange the library, if I may. Just to make it more organised and pleasing to the eye.

i.e.
-Sticky
seperate thread -Karl Marx -> docs within
seperate thread -Friedrich Engels -> docs within
seperate thread -Vladimir Lenin -> docs within
seperate thread -Josef Stalin -> docs within
seperate thread -Leon Trotsky -> docs within
seperate thread -Mao Tse-Tung -> docs within
seperate thread -Ernesto Guevara -> docs within
seperate thread -Enver Hoxha -> docs within

You get it.

I mean, it's easier for someone who wants to read a doc by Lenin to just go to the thread marked "Lenin", instead of having to go to the main thread, look for the Lenin subtitle, scan for the doc they're looking for, and if they don't see it, then they would have to go through all the various appendices and adjustments people have suggested. It's just making it easier for people.

Plus, then instead of having smaler people like Khruschev and Haywood and whatnot shoved into an "other" category, they'd have their own thread.

[Gallenger, you're not allowed to post in the CC discussions. Don't do it again!]



That's not a bad plan, but aren't most the links to Marx2Mao or Marxists.org ??

I'll work on a few quick explanations of what's in a book since that's likely what's most needed. And maybe a recommended reading list moreso.

That's a good Idea actually. That way we can have the basic reading sticky for each author and senior members can post their recommended readings in separate threads. Except I would advise against stickies for the not-so- known commies like Haywood. If a senior member wants to suggest such an author they can do it in a different thread.

Good work Hero
