January 27, 2007 Iraq War protestJanuary 27, 2007 anti-war protest — This requested move will bring this article's name in line with other similar articles about anti-war protests.

This brings this article in line to what seems to be the consensus on how we title articles regarding anti-war protests. SchuminWeb (Talk) 09:32, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Survey - in support of the move

  1. Certainly, yes. I think you can move this right now. —Nightstallion (?) 11:32, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  2. No problem with moving the article. Though, I hope it gets expanded and improved significantly. Otherwise, maybe it's worth merging it into Protests against the Iraq War. --Aude (talk) 02:06, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Total agreement here. Spinnick597 22:08, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Move would make sense. I saw people there protesting war in Palestine, too, and no war in Iran, etc. Candle-ends 17:31, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Survey - in opposition to the move

Pictures

I noticed that most of the pictures in this article have been removed, and was wondering if a panorama of the event, which I feel encompasses the scope of the protest, would be appropriate for the article. Any thoughts? Spinnick597 22:13, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I removed most of the photos because we don't have enough text to support that many photos yet. It still has to grow some more first before we can add more photos to the text itself. All the photos were moved to Wikimedia Commons and the J27 gallery is linked from there. I would strongly recommend that, if the panorama is available under a free license, that you upload it to Commons and place it under the J27 category.

Cigarette butts

What are the sources for the report of cigarette butts and spitting at soldiers? There has been no mention of anything like this anywhere but here. Is this supported by reliable sources, or is it just vandalism? 64.75.114.95 18:02, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, since your comment was not about the requested move, I moved it to its own section. That said, it appears to be simple vandalism and POV-pushing, considering the phrasing. Good work in zapping it. SchuminWeb (Talk) 04:57, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anti anti protest

Does anyone have a source for this? It's not that I want it removed (unlike the cigarette butt tale!), I just haven't heard it anywhere else. It could also be re-phrased so who's protesting what is clearer, but if it gets sourced, I can do that part. Candle-ends 01:08, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Could you cite the passage in the text that you're referring to? It appears that you're referring to the Freepers' counter-protest in the article, but I'm not for certain. Some clarity would be appreciated. SchuminWeb (Talk) 07:37, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies. "In what was called the anti anti protest, Iraq veterans in the hundreds stood in front of the opposing protesters holding signs supporting the war." It's plunked in towards the bottom. Sounds like it's trying to say the counter-protest was protested? Maybe? Candle-ends 18:45, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
