| I've just had a look at the marxists.org site, and was quite impressed - 
| there is a lot of good quality free content on the site which could be 
| useful to us.
| 
| We will of course have to be careful that marxist views are attributed to 
| marxists, and not presented as fact, in accordance with the neutral point of 
| view policy.  On many of the pages I looked at the majority of the content 
| was factual and already suitable for Wikipedia.  I don't think importing 
| this material will present too many problems, provided that we all take it 
| slowly so that the new material is properly integrated with the existing 
| articles.
| 
| I would encourage other Wikipedians to take a look and think about using 
| some of the material into our articles.

I agree that some of their material might be quite usefull. Although it would be good 
if they gave us a brief hello on the list so that we know who they are. We should also kindly
ask them to register (another bunch of anonymous IP contributors is the last thing we need, IMHO).
