Color Scheme
[edit]Would it be possible to change the color scheme of the template from red to something less obtrusive such as a light blue or a grey color? Pavane7 (talk) 19:01, 28 June 2017 (UTC) In my opinion, grey or black color would be the best option.--89.173.36.108 (talk) 19:38, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
- Agreed. I have removed the color scheme and the "decorative" image. This is intended to be a neutral navigation aid, not a recruitment brochure. Grayfell (talk) 22:25, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
Alphabetizing
[edit]I don't know if there was any specific order to the entries here, but without one it's just a wall of text. I've alphabetized the organizations, and will probably do the people as well. There was a duplicate, which is a good reason to alphabetize entries, and also a good example of why lengthy templates tend to be self-defeating if the goal is to help people find more information. This is a very large number of entries with no indication which topics are vitally important and which are not, so restraint is a good thing. Grayfell (talk) 05:44, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
Colour and symbols

User:Greyfell is wipping himself up into a frenzy, because I added symbols that are actually relevent to the subject at hand; the Swastika and Black Sun are the most commonly used neo-Nazi symbols. The Celtic Cross, while used, is typically more of a neo-fascist symbol (used first by French neo-fascists). I can see the value of including it as well, but it is decidely third teir. Can anybody show which neo-Nazi groups uses the previous flag shown here? Its a completely invented flag as far as I can tell. Also red is the most common colour used on the flags of neo-Nazi groups (I have corrected the colour to the hex code used on aforementioned flag), not brown. The brown here appears to be to make the template look ugly. If Greyfell can't control his hysterical emotionalism on this topic, may I suggest that his efforts are probably more constructive editing other subject areas?

Color changes
[edit]I've removed the non-standard background colors from this template, which serve no encyclopedic purpose, and could be regarded by other editors as a provocation. I have also done the same with {{Communism}} template, for the same reasons. Templates are navigational tools, not celebrations of their subjects. -- The Anome (talk) 10:00, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
- WP:NOTBROCHURE comes to mind here. Actually, for that reason, why does this template have any flag or symbol at all? Grayfell (talk) 00:22, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
- The image was re-added by 212.171.48.227 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) back in March. I think this was probably the same sock as above, so I have again removed the image. Grayfell (talk) 01:22, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

This page is outdated and inapropriat. The Azov is a part of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and are not neo-nazis and white nationalists. At this moment members of Azov are giving up their lives on the frontlines of the Ukraine-russia war. Th idea that Azov are neo-nazis and white nationalists is russian propoganda, is a disgusting lie and is extremely disrespectful to the young people fighting for Ukraine's freedom. 97.108.161.38 (talk) 02:43, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}}template. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 10:45, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
- I think that was a reasonable request, and I fixed it. I think the consensus is needed, but it is needed for inclusion of the military regiment to the template. My very best wishes (talk) 01:00, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
- It was included to the template [1] by an indefinitely banned user [2]. My very best wishes (talk) 01:05, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
Australian Defence League
[edit]I can find no support in Australian Defence League for calling the organization neo-Nazi. It is far right and islamophobic, sure, but that is not enough to consider it neo-Nazist. Sjö (talk) 19:39, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

Remove Kanye West as he is absolutely not a neo Nazi and there are no reputable sources referring to him as one 2A00:23C4:B414:2401:A0B8:C65D:4FF1:871E (talk) 01:59, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
- Not done: Not that Kanye is a reliable source, but he refers to himself as one. Feel free to check out any of the multiple cited sources supporting this on Kanye West and Views of Kanye West Cannolis (talk) 02:44, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
Addition of 764, Terrorgram, CVLT
[edit]764 (organization), Terrorgram, CVLT (organization). I understand not including the latter as it appears to be less notable that the former two though. Gregory "Greg" Heffley (talk) 08:57, 24 August 2025 (UTC)
- 764 and CVLT appropriate nazi aesthetics but according to many experts on extremism they are motivated by nihilism, and were not genuinely ideological neo-Nazis [3] [4] rather "nihilistic violent extremists". So we should not add those two.. Terrorgram would maybe be a decent addition but it wasn't really a group so idk where to put it. PARAKANYAA (talk) 09:03, 24 August 2025 (UTC)
