Image:Plf.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used underfair use but there is noexplanation or rationale as to why its use inthis Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to theboilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent withfair use.
Please go tothe image description page and edit it to include afair use rationale. Using one of the templates atWikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described oncriteria for speedy deletion.

I request this to be changed to aterrorist organisation. Its actions made it clear enough to classify it as such.Norum18:41, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cit. Ref. 5 - As of 16Aug19, the fifth reference, "Foreign Terrorist Organizations", linksarchived content at the U.S. Department of State. However, active, current content exists, reinforcing the reference in the main article. Therefore, I suggest an E/C-capable editor apply the following link update(s) to improve this reference's credibility, currency, and relevance.
Depending on localized format, this reference could call[1] or[2]
Several uncited claims exist in the main article. A single reference to the United States' Department of Homeland Security (specifically, the (PDF) Terrorist Organization Reference Guide) applies to many of these independent or orphaned claims. Please consider adding this reference[3] wherever it could legitimize a claim or lend credit to an otherwise ambiguous citation. Alternatively, the department's guide-download page is here[4].— Precedingunsigned comment added bySierraMultimedia (talk •contribs)23:09, 16 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This organization is also designated as a terrorist group by Canada (check Public Safety Canada listing). There are probably other Western countries who have similarly labeled it as such.— Precedingunsigned comment added bySlayerofOrcs (talk •contribs)06:20, 31 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The PLF founded in 1961 was a different organziation than the PLF founded in 1977.--MiguelMadeira (talk)22:19, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Reply to Miguelmadeira:Not really, PLF was founded in 1959 and essentially was living under the shadow of the PFLP-GC until 1977 when it became independent.

Acording to that source: "The PLF’s history is entwined with that of Ahmad Jibril and his PFLP-GC. It was initially founded by Ahmad Jibril in 1959. In 1967, it merged with ‘The Heroes of Return’ — a political movement affiliated with the Arab National Movement — to form the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). In 1968, Jibril then split from the PFLP and founded a new pro-Syrian organisation: the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – General Command (PFLP-GC). The group adopted a pro-Syrian orientation.
However, following the group’s support for Syria’s 1976 intervention against the PLO in Lebanon, a number of disgruntled PFLP-GC cadres, led by Mohammed Abbas Zaydan (Abu Abbas) and Talat Yaqub, broke away. The following year, in 1977, they re-established the PLF as an independent organisation orientated towards Iraq which provided it with financial and military support."
The 1959 PLF seems to be the ancestor of the modern PFLP-GC, and the modern PLF a split of PFLP-GC.--MiguelMadeira (talk)02:35, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
