Add Atheism info box to all atheism related talk pages (use {{WikiProject Atheism}} or see info box)
Ensure atheism-related articles are members of Atheism by checking whether [[Category:Atheism]] has been added to atheism-related articles – and, where it hasn't, adding it.
Try to expand stubs. Ideas and theories about life, however, are prone to generating neologisms, so some stubs may be suitable for deletion (see deletion process).
State atheism needs a reassessment of its Importance level, as it has little to do with atheism and is instead an article about anti-theist/anti-religious actions of governments.

I'm a bit confused about this article's seemingly interchangeable use of the terms "far-right" and "fascist." If they are truly interchangeable, why not use one of the terms consistently throughout? If they are not interchangeable, I think the article needs to make clearer what "far-right" means in context for the period of time under discussion. Early Tea Party perhaps?

Lighten up, I'm not slamming the Tea Party, I'm trying to make the point that "far-right" doesn't have a clear meaning in this context, the article should be clearer or not use the term. Kerry (talk) 11:30, 30 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
While I tend to agree that there is much overlap between fascism and the far left in general, the fascist experience in general and clearly so the fascist phenomenon in Romania are generally categorized as far right. But more to the point, there is a historical distinction to be understood here: Rainer was confronted by both the pre/proto-fascist far right (the National-Christian Defense League is linked in the text as well), which existed in the 1920s, and the fascist Iron Guard (also linked in the text), which took the forefront in the 1930s. And even more to the point: far right is always contextual. In the Romanian context, as the text shows, it refers to an antisemitic and ultra-nationalist movement. (The Tea Party, who is a valid reference only in the American context, is neither antisemitic nor ultra-nationalist. And even in the American context, where the far right is the KKK and such, the Tea Party should be categorized under "populist right", rather than under "far right".)
