:[[User:Youngjtdyt|Youngjtdyt]], you don't need to use a hyphen in unambiguous word combinations, a space is enough. As [[MOS:HYPHEN]] states, ''Avoid using a hyphen after a standard -ly adverb (a newly available home, a wholly owned subsidiary) unless part of a larger compound (a slowly-but-surely strategy).''

== The hammer and sickle == |
|||
The hammer and sickle symbol used in the article comes from the flag of the naval ensign, which is obvious to anyone looking at it; the state flag did not make use of a red hammer and sickle, but the naval ensign did. Therefore, this is the version that should be used; anyone who might have any objection to that is also the one who should make a discussion of it before changing it. This, you see, was the original version used until some users recently started changing the description. Thank you for understanding.

:[[User:Åttiotrean 226|Åttiotrean 226]], yes, it is undoubtedly red, I won't question that, but the shape is different to that of the [[Soviet_Navy#/media/File:Naval_Ensign_of_the_Soviet_Union_(1950%E2%80%931991).svg|Naval Ensign of the Soviet Union]] and the image itself cites the state flag of the USSR as the source (''From the Flags of the Soviet Union Between 1955-1991, albeit Red instead of Gold''), so the edit I reverted constitutes [[WP:OR]].

::You are right. I missed this piece of information and I only just realised that the shape was different on the naval ensign. My apologies for getting ahead of myself a bit there. [[User:Åttiotrean 226|Åttiotrean 226]] ([[User talk:Åttiotrean 226|talk]]) 23:57, 21 January 2021 (UTC) |

:[[User:Ledboots19|Ledboots19]], emails are sent to you automatically depending on your user settings, I did not send you anything. And drop the threatening tone, got it?

I get that the edit submitted yesterday was unsourced but in my opinion something really needs to be added to this section to clarify that the association between the circle and an "O" for "order" is a very recent, some would say revisionist, addition by a single author that is not widely accepted by the anarchist subculture. This symbolism is not universal and in fact, I don't know a single anarchist who has used the symbol in their art or tagging who would agree with the association. If there really needs to be a source, I will write like a paragraph and publish it on the Anarchist Library but I would prefer just putting a disclaimer sentence or something in on this wiki page without having to publish a paragraph. |
