Progressive Party of Wisconsin

[edit]

Do we need to split off the La Follette Progressives information into a new article with the above name? --Orange Mike 03:04, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think we do - the Progressive Party of Wisconsin was a separate entity from the 1924 national Progressive Party. --Wintersdoor (talk) 00:22, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I created the Wisconsin Progressive Party article and deleted info on that party on this page, merged selected info onto the new article --Wintersdoor (talk) 02:58, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There are many dozens of articles on Wisconsin Progressives where the old link will take readers to this article instead of the new one, I fear. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:20, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I've started working on that a bit - if you come across any let's re-direct --Wintersdoor (talk) 18:20, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article name

[edit]

The article should be moved to 'Progressive Party (United States 1924-1946). GoodDay (talk) 18:04, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:31, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article should be moved to National Progressive Party (United States) as this is closer to its historical Name,

[edit]

I think this is the National Progressive party banner and maybe also the banner of the Wisconsin Progressive Party. If someone could make a digital version of the banner then upload it to be used as a logo for the National Progressive party and/or the Wisconsin Progressive Party, It would be helpful.

Hello @Zyxrq, I do not believe the Wisconsin Progressive Party, or the 1924 party made as a vehicle for Robert La Follette to run for president, ever had a symbol of their own, and the symbol you show was used exclusively for the venture of Philip La Follette when he launched the National Progressives of America in the late 30s. Though I concur that a digitized version would be nice to have for the future. Talthiel (talk) 21:28, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Talthiel, you could be correct. Nether less, according to the Wisconsin Historical Society, we know a version of the "Symbol was submitted to the state of Wisconsin for trademark registration by The National Progressives of America." [[4]] Even if I'm wrong I'm happy you agree that a digitized version would be nice to have for the future.
Also, including the symbol shown in the sourced I linked and these two sources, [[5]] [[6]]. We know there are four variants of the symbol Zyxrq (talk) 23:33, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
