Not just Bahrain[edit]

It should be noted that the documentary was about the Arab Spring in general (e.g. Tunisia and Egypt), not just that in Bahrain. It is correctly mentioned that the documentary was one hour long, and Bahrain part was 13 minutes. It should also be noted that some parts were aired on CNNi, but not the Bahraini one. Other than that, this is such a great article. Mohamed CJ (talk) 11:27, 28 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please be bold and add those clarification to the article; the lead may be a good place for them. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 16:54, 28 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Is this not a RS?[edit]

Ping User:ReconditeRodent: can you explain why you removed a reference? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:22, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It was deprecated, meaning we should try to avoid it wherever possible (see its entry at WP:RSP). The link is also dead and I can't get it on Wayback. In any case, the Guardian piece seems to still support the statement. ─ ReconditeRodent « talk · contribs » 01:34, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
