Hey @ Vanamonde93:, I inserted an image which was removed only because the removing editor fails to find a photo balancing the one I inserted. You can also see this edit with its weird edit summary. Should we censor the photo? -- Mhhossein talk 14:17, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
To whoever made this change, you are required by Wikipedia rules, WP:OR specifically to add every material with a reference. There have not been any reports of protests past 20 Nov and Iran announced protests to have ended on this date. Any further changes back to ongoing without reference will be reverted without discussion now that the notice is made. KasimMejia ( talk) 12:47, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
This article needs to be cleaned up: specifically, the casualty count should include a lower bound in the infobox from HRW and AI, not only 1500 (this seems to be echoing US propaganda). Also the wording, even if it's going to be an extremely pro-protest POV, needs to be rewritten. Right now it seems like it's written by someone who doesn't write English that well. Plus, there are some spacing issues with the text that can be fixed. 98.221.136.220 ( talk) 00:31, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
Could someone possibly add this somewhere? [2]. Don't have the time to do it meself atm. -- HistoryofIran ( talk) 16:02, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
â€â¶In this article, please mention all the dates of Internet disconnection in Iran.âââââââ âââ Internet disconnection in Iran is not only for year 2019 During all protests,âźâźâźâââââââââââââââââââââââââââźâźâź the Iranian government and the IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Sepah) cut off the Internet.â«â«â«ă -- Worrywolf ( talk) 09:04, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
United States government is not exactly a trustworthy source for deathtolls in a protest inside iran. Maybe use Amnesty international number which was considerably lower? â Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.115.75.143 ( talk) 00:55, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
And are you assuming that AI made no effort to account for the Iranian coverup? And from what I've read, the killings roughly ended when the Iranian gov said the protests ended, which is around when AI released its report (correct me if I'm wrong). IMO there should be a range. Your decision anyways. 98.221.136.220 ( talk) 05:04, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
Iran has been experiencing a largely uninterrupted protest wave since 2017 (see 2017â18 Iranian protests, 2018 Dervish protests, 2018 Iranian university protests, 2018 Iranian water protests, 2018 Khuzestan protests, 2018â2019 Iranian general strikes and protests, 2019 Sistan and Baluchestan protests). I think an umbrella protest article along the lines of the one for Venezuelan protests is necessary. It would certainly make all this easier to navigate. Charles Essie ( talk) 21:54, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
The protest go back as far as 2016 from the Cyrus the Great Day Protests https://observers.france24.com/en/20161103-iran-cyrus-king-regime-protest. I will be making a page for those protests as well. LightofIran âPreceding undated comment added 05:21, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
I propose to merge Mahshahr killings into 2019â20 Iranian protests. I think that the content in the Mahshahr killings article can easily be explained in the context of 2019â20 Iranian protests, and the 2019â20 Iranian protests article is of a reasonable size that the merging of Mahshahr killings will not cause any problems as far as article size is concerned. In addition, the Background section of Mahshahr killings includes duplicated material which was mentioned in 2019â20 Iranian protests. These two articles have a large overlap. Saff V. ( talk) 10:58, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
The January 2020 protests are generally characterized as a separate protest from the November 2019 protests. Rolf H Nelson ( talk) 05:04, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
At the present time (August 2020) I do not see that it is sensible to have a result in the infobox. It is far too soon. It did say N.A. [not applicable] and return to status quo, which is illogical - either it is not applicable to say what the result is, or the result is a return to the status quo.-- Toddy1 (talk) 06:04, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
The 1,500 claim is quite obvious bs, it has no evidence to support it Hibsiwakawam ( talk) 20:09, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
"Opposition to Anti-Americanism in Iran" is listed as one of the causes in the infobox, but this isn't exactly supported by the article or other sources, which mostly cite economic and material hardships +exclusively, specifically triggered by fuel prices. The Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 protests are more linked to that, but they took place after and had a separate cause to the suppressed November protests which are the main focus of this article.
