Should this be moved to Marijuana party? -- Zoe

It should be singular, but I don't know if the "P" should be capitalized or not. Tokerboy

If it regards a continuing ( perhaps habitual ) series of events, then the plural is justified.-Stevert

I'm moving it to Marijuana Party. Since it has a singular form that applied to the entire subject (unlike Cattle) and is relatively commonly used, Wikipedia:Naming conventions (pluralization) says that the singular form should be used. It should be capitalized, because it refers to groups that are called "Marijuana Party." Guanaco 00:31, 28 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I just moved it back. Marijuana party is very confusing as it sounds like a political party. This is a list of parties, SqueakBox 16:06, September 1, 2005 (UTC)

I would prefer [[Marijuana parties]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page]. Not all groups use Party in their formal titles. (Neither do all use Marijuana.) Laurel Bush 14:54, 2 September 2005 (UTC).[reply]

I just changed it to Cannabis. Marijuana is a slang term for cannabis, plus there are cannabis parties in places like the UK and other European countries where cannabis does not mean marijuana as hashish is the more popular (or at least available) form of cannabis thus nobody in the UK would set up a marijuana political party for this reason. Marijuana directs to cannabis (drug) and thus Marijuana political parties is the wrong term to use on several counts. The photo in the article makes it clear that I am describing the reality of the situation, SqueakBox 17:34, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

citation needed for the Quebec cannabis party election. Here is a possible citation --> ^[1]

I think something should be added to explain that the listed political parties have marijuana legalisation/decriminaliation as a primary motivation. The way the article heading currently reads it seems like it is missing some groups. For example, the end of drug prohibition in the United States is a goal of the Libertarian party. However even though they are strong advocates of drug law reform the current staus of the article leaves me unsure of whether or not adding the Libertarian Party would be appropriate. After all thier platform involves many other issues.68.66.108.121 10:45, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The parties mentioned clearlty want to see cannabis legalised, not decriminalised, and therefore we should not change legalise to decriminalise in the first paragraph and so I have reverted, SqueakBox 17:04, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

That's fine by me. It's sometimes hard when you find a lot of articles with a change you want to make to ensure it's 100%. Anyways, in most cases what people are looking for is decrminalization and not outright legalization, which would generally prove to be problematic with the US. Additionally, the word decriminalize has the proper connotation, since criminalization of marijuana is a relatively recent phenomenon. It is more correct to state that cannabis and marijuana must be decminialized, rather than legalized, as it was legal to begin with. I feel this is an important distinction, and much literature on the subject (even among DEA and DOJ publications) generally use the terms correctly. Avriette 21:26, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

NORML under Saskatchewan refers to the US National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws? Laurel Bush 11:23, 19 December 2005 (UTC).[reply]

Hello, I am the Saskatchewan Marijuana Party Interim president (Ethan Erkiletian) and will be adding to the article giving some detail to the Saskatchwan Marijuana Party entry. I would like to note under this heading that the party currently has no formal association with the Saskatchewan Chapter of NORML Canada and we do not currently have any formal association with the Federal Canadian Marijuana Party either. As such, these references will be replaced momentarily but I feel that since the information was there, a correction should be placed for notation by the general public here. I'm new at this so please let me know if I have entered biased or potentially inaccurate information concerning our party. I can be contacted through the wiki site. --Canadian Psycho 03:04, 25 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The GTL Party is listed under United States, California, but I am seeing nothing in the article GTL Party committing the party to legalisation of marijuana, let alone anything making legalisation a core feature of its policies. Laurel Bush 10:54, 13 March 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Image:Legalise Cannabis Alliance 2.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 28 March 2022 and 30 May 2022. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Skmatsch (article contribs).

Is there any further information on the Partido Party? I wasn't able to find any academic articles that relate to this topic. I think this subheader should be expanded upon because there isn't any information on it post 2004. Right now, Spain's socialist party is working to legalize cannabis use this would be especially pertinent right now. Skmatsch (talk)skmatsch

perhaps add more specific information rather than just bullet points. I prefer the format for the United Kingdom category which has more robust information in comparison. Skmatsch (talk) 04:05, 1 April 2022 (UTC)skmatsch[reply]

It would be interesting to talk about how how the Youth International Party (cannabis party) was founded in Berkeley, CA, and how that relationship was relevant to the political movements at the time. Many of these movements began at UC Berkeley. Skmatsch (talk) 04:05, 1 April 2022 (UTC)skmatsch ^[1][reply]
