Did he actually run as a CPA candidate? The ABC website seems to list him (on the ballot at least) as being unaffiliated - http://www.abc.net.au/elections/nsw/2012/council/?page=Auburn#Council I'm not doubting that Mr Oldfield is a CPA member and it's probably legitimate to count him on the ticker since we normally change the numbers if someone did this in a state or federal parliament but perhaps the wording in the article needs to be changed slightly?

There was recently another split, with splitting members forming the “Australian Communist Party”. This should be reflected in the article. Locochoko ( talk) 13:09, 1 June 2019 (UTC) reply

Here’s their website for anyone interested - https://www.auscp.org.au/militantmonthly Locochoko ( talk) 13:15, 1 June 2019 (UTC) reply

Australian Communist Party redirects to the old CPA, so I have removed the link. Unless someone makes an article for the ACP, there is no point in having a link.-- Jack Upland ( talk) 10:05, 24 September 2019 (UTC) reply

There was a page for the Australian Communist Party but it was deleted. Catiline52 ( talk) 11:09, 24 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Typical. Was it deleted by the ACP, the CPA, the CAP, the PAC, or the CIA?-- Jack Upland ( talk) 11:11, 24 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Just typical non-notability reasons, not many sources on the topic since it's probably just half a dozen people. Catiline52 ( talk) 11:53, 24 September 2019 (UTC) reply

As of 2022 the ACP is probably still too small and not sufficiently notable to warrant an article as mentioned in the previous comment 11893945AA ( talk) 09:04, 15 April 2022 (UTC) reply
