A number of parties have been added to the list of social liberal policies with either no sources provided, or sourced only to the parties' websites. None of these websites claim that the parties are social liberal and would not be good sources in any case. Several of the parties listed appear to be social democratic, for example the Social Democrat Radical Party of Chile, which is a member of the Socialist International. Others may be nationalist or agrarian. See WP:V: "Any material that requires a citation but does not have one may be removed." Please do not re-add without reliable sources.

I agree in countries like Spain, two minor parties are listed with a Spanish nationalistic ideology whilst the only part that is a member of the Alliance of European Liberal Democrats is Democratic Convergence of Catalonia. Hope this gets updates soon. I would delete the two parties listed as irrelevant besides the fact that I doubt that socio-liberal is the right definition of their ideology.

Seconded, we have a proper and large Social Democratic Party of Finland and other more leftist parties in Finland, and this article only gives the tiny party of Swedish People's Party of Finland as an example (it is sourced from a book which counts it as an example of an ethnic/regional party). It is a one-topic party which only basically promotes the compulsory teaching of Swedish language in Finnish schools. They always ally with any block which accepts this. They are centre-rightist in their policy when it rarely comes up. This is probably the worst example of a Social Liberal party there can be.Keskival (talk) 11:14, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Four Deuces keeps deleting the parties I’ve added. The articles on the parties I’ve added, together with the weblinks I’ve provided, provide evidence that the parties I’ve added are socially liberal. The article on the People’s Justice Party does not state that the party is socially liberal, but I felt that the party’s centre-left policies, together with its status as an observer member of the Liberal International, make it a social liberal party. In addition, the Australian Democrats is described as a social liberal party. I don’t understand why that keeps getting deleted.
