Expansion of the War to Lebanon and Campus Crackdowns

[edit]

As Gaza is destroyed, it's not the prime target anymore for the Netanyahu government. How do we document this expansion of the war to Lebanon and the limited number of campus protests? Are there any articles that acknowledge the effectiveness of the crackdowns so far? Collegemeltdown2 (talk) 16:59, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've been working on adding material about crackdowns and policy changes in the Administrative Response section. I appreciate the links you've shared on the talk page and will try to incorporate them. I'm not sure if the way the page is currently structured is the best way to summarize these events as we get more of a historical view on them, but I'm also not sure how we'd go about restructuring the article. I don't think the expansion of the war to Lebanon needs much mention here, unless it results in a significant change in the nature or volume of the protests.

"Court sides with student protesters after University of Maryland canceled Oct. 7 vigil for Gaza"

[edit]

Not sure what this case actually means for the pro-Palestinian groups. [1]https://thehill.com/homenews/education/4909968-student-protesters-after-maryland-campus-oct-7-vigil-gaza-israel-hamas/ Collegemeltdown2 (talk) 18:34, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Radicalization over the course of the year

[edit]

NYT reports that the campus protest movement is moving towards a more revolutionary, pro-Hamas stance...just posting here as background that may be helpful for this article. Prezbo (talk) 05:54, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just made this point too, adding this new WaPo article.[[1]] It was immediately reverted. Allthemilescombined1 (talk) 14:30, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Split proposal

[edit]

Now that the page has reached 10,500+ words, should we split Reactions section to Reactions to the 2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses per WP:TOOBIG? For reference the Reactions section is around 30% of the content, so the split article would still be comfortably 3,000+ words, leaving this one at an adequate size of around 7,500. Please leave your !votes in the survey below.

Survey

  • As nominator. While there is no doubt content that could be trimmed in that section, overall the section is quite clunky for the article, and personally think it would be a better standalone. I otherwise don't believe there's much else to trim in other sections that have generally been well constructed. I also think that with this section gone this article could be close to GA, and I'd be much more inclined to pursue that, rather than having to work and clean up the Reactions section as well.
