While I am not an editor of this article, I don't understand the objection. ''Are you saying that you believe that the terms used in the article are "too politicized" on a political subject matter?'' Or '''are you saying that you believe the terminology in the article is used to imply political agenda(s) or bias?''' As to the first, governments are political by nature. This would be like saying that scientific terms are too scientific for an article on or about Science. As to the second, I don't personally agree that this article has any bias toward any particular political agenda. But if you disagree on the neutrality of the article, that certainly would be worth discussing.

Hey,

What happened to the page? I need a disambiguation or something. These words are very politicized and I needs some clarity:

Democratic republic constitutional democracy Constitutional republic federal republic

These seem to be all bandied about.

-Grok70 or Sam_gunn (i'll figure out my user name later.)

While I am not an editor of this article, I don't understand the objection. Are you saying that you believe that the terms used in the article are "too politicized" on a political subject matter? Or are you saying that you believe the terminology in the article is used to imply political agenda(s) or bias? As to the first, governments are political by nature. This would be like saying that scientific terms are too scientific for an article on or about Science. As to the second, I don't personally agree that this article has any bias toward any particular political agenda. But if you disagree on the neutrality of the article, that certainly would be worth discussing. 165.138.95.59 (talk) 17:19, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are lists in this article of countries that are/were self-described as Democratic Republics, most (if not all) of which don't fit the definition given at the start. How about a list of countries that actually fit the definition? WaxTadpole (talk) 18:25, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
