A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2008/November.

I removed the line

It became the standard textbook on the transition from 
capitalism to 
socialism for communists around the world.

Apparently, the only place where such textbooks could have been used was the USSR prior to destruction of Bukharin and his accomplices. If any other country practiced teaching Bukharin's version of trotskyism, then it should be clearly named. NVO ( talk) 09:18, 4 November 2008 (UTC) reply

I believe in the ref linked to it mentions something about about Marxist and Maoist groups using it, but it was an awkward sounding sentence so I agree that the removal was warranted. Bsimmons666 ( talk) ^Friend? 22:42, 4 November 2008 (UTC) reply
