That discussion appears to have been removed. An administrator may have an answer as to why?

At various points over the years we have unpublished old forum discussions, because of retrospective breaches of our comment guidelines.
Have now re-published that one.

That article has been taken off-line and we don't intend to put it back online, as it was conducted with a secret white supremacist (Schmidt), and has no factual value which would mitigate against that.

Obviously, this site should not promote racial supremacists from within the anarchist movement but would it be possible, somehow, to retain the Comments section attached to this interview? It seems counterproductive to censor the offending article whilst also censoring its detractors.
There was no discussion of this article in the comment section after it. There was one comment from a person complaining about Schmidt in general.

Well, at least there was one who saw through the trumped up nazi punk..
Is this one gone forever? "Critical comments on rose-tinted revisionist views of skinheads"

I did eventually read that (very short) article - and agreed that it was nonsense!

You are in a privileged position: being able to read nonsense.
Followed a link on the site to this but it's been fed to the penguin

Any chance of this "bourgeois motherfucker" seeing it?
Admin: comment lightly edited as we have re-published the discussion.
In the absence of the above link, our thoughts on anti-fascism are that all states are fascist, in that they bind disparate elements of the capital, including the labour force, within the nation, or conglomerate of nations.
The term anti-fascist is a mystification. The working class is inherently against the mercantile state and its political administration. Fascism or anti-fascism are terms that only aim to disunify the class of labour.

While some of the comments in this discussion are rude, and breach our current posting guidelines, this discussion contains important information from a person debunking misinformation about themselves, so we have re-published it.
I got to this page (https://libcom.org/discussion/request-content-posting-rights-here) from Content Guidelines to ask for permission to submit content but a red pengu yelling at me Access Denied!
I've already tried different browsers and also made sure I'm logged in to my account.
Hi Sharam - what happens if you press the "submit content" button at the top of the page?

Hi Fozzie: do you mean a 'submit content' on this current page? I don't see one.
Fozzie wrote: Hi Sharam - what happens if you press the "submit content" button at the top of the page?
If you mean the 'submit content' on my account, it goes to next page showing 3 options , I choose Article, but only have Save as: Draft option with Save & Preview buttons.
Basically, I don't have the permission to Publish it. It's been 3 weeks and haven't received any responses to my emails or comments except you.
Trying to follow the Content Guidelines will redirect to the page with red penguin saying No Access.
Ah OK - I am able to publish your drafts, so perhaps that is a good way forward for now? I just did that for the Loren Goldner piece you submitted. I hope that is OK.

This is great! Thank you Fozzie.
I'll be uploading another one soon. I don't mind giving you the trouble to do the same (hope you are OK with this), but is there a fix for this so I don't bog you down with these comments?
Thanks Shahram - yes that is all fine. I believe that someone with more admin powers than I would need to change your permissions. I am sure one of them will be along in due course, but please proceed in the meantime...
Fozzie deserves a promotion I think; look at all the content he's uploaded! A real Stakhanov that all libcom contributors should try to emulate. Give Fozzie more admin privileges right now!!

Alright, glad to have a plan for now! Thanks!

Yes, I second that (though I don't have any voting power)!
Comrade Fozzie has been working at the Library of Communism for over 21 years; he damn well deserves to edit people's posting permissions!
(I also hope he didn't take offense to me comparing him to Stakhanov—the whole Stalinist labor-competition thing was indeed terrible.)
Thanks for the nice comments both. Posting content is its own reward :-)

Hi there! I am looking for the forum threads mentioned in the comments of the "Black Flame" Library entry (https://libcom.org/article/black-flame-revolutionary-class-politics-anarchism-and-syndicalism-lucien-van-der-walt-and), apparently discussing historical failings and inaccuracies of the book:

Btw: can we please have a landing page that links to all forum discussions that have been resurrected? Especially on historical and theoretical topics, I fear that a lot of really valuable content was lost with the removal of the forum (although there were probably good reasons for doing so, which I do no know about). Or maybe a landing page already exists and I'm just too daft to find it?
Also, not all of the valuable discussion on theoretical or historical topics were linked to library comments so it seems there's no hope to ever find and ask to resurrect them, or am I missing something?
Having said that (don't get me wrong), I'm very happy about everything that still exists to this day - thanks for this all your work and for providing this great resource over all these years!
Hey, I published those two threads so you should be able to access them now.
Thanks, Juan, much appreciated!
If anyone could still comment on whether we could have a kind of landing page linking all available discussion topics ( i.e. https://libcom.org/discussion/ ) or if there already is some way to do so, that would be great!
You can use google/wayback machine to find discussion threads. If there is a particular thread you want restored, there's also a thread here where you can request it.

Hey, the old forum structure was replaced by our Discussions section. You can get to it by clicking Recent, then Discussions, or going to here: https://libcom.org/recent/discussions
If you want to request any other old threads be republished, you can do so here: https://libcom.org/discussion/request-republishing-older-threads-currently-unavailable

Any reason that all discussions that have taken place on this site cannot be published? So much content seems to have been lost to the ether, only to be retained in the vaults.
As we have discussed many times, libcom is over 20 years old, and used to have very loose posting rules. As such many old forum posts contain problematic content, which breached tighter posting rules we introduced later.
So at various points over 20 odd years we have un-published large numbers of old threads which breached comment guidelines. In some of these mass-unpublishings, we may have hidden some threads which either were okay, or could be tidied up relatively easily. However, going through every single one of hundreds of thousands of pages of comments to tidy them up one by one, is impossible.
Hi comrades ..... I was trying to view this discussion, which no longer appears. I was wondering if someone can do their magic and make it reappear? Thanks & solidarity!

There were several comments which breached posting guidelines in that thread. Have tidied up and re-published

libcom.org has been running for several years on a lot of different software, so it's likely the page you want exists, but doesn't live here any more. If you're really trying hard to find a page and it isn't here, contact us.
If you've been brought to this page from a link on another website, please ask them to update their links.
