Then at the top of the Tunisian Revolution page, we could just have a note saying something like "Jasmine Revolution redirects here. For other uses, see Jasmine Revolution (disambiguation)", and then put the

In any case, i've put the disambig content in place, since in 8 days there have been no objections and this is unlikely to be controversial. The presence or absence of a link to the "Impact..." article can become a new section on this talk page - or on the Impact... talk page, since AFAIK references

that uses Jasmine Revolution in a generic sense, but the use does not seem to be widespread. It mostly seems to be used to describe the 2011 Tunisian Revolution. If generic use becomes significant enough to be worth adding to the "Impact ..." article, then IMHO it will be justified to add it here as

seem to be based on the need to have an article describing protest movements or attempted protest movements around the world that have been inspired by the Tunisian and Egyptian revolutions of 2011. At the time this article was created and the AfD's, there was no consensus on creating an article for

I support this proposition. However, since many people in the world will look for the term "Jasmine" not only in regard to Tunisia and China, but also for Bahrein, Egypt etc., I would suggest to at least on the bottom of the disambiguation page add a link like "2011 protests in other countries" and

My preference is for this to become a disambig page. This would allow for the addition of further 2011 revolutions if any happen and are known as Jasmine revolutions, and would help overcome the information that seems to have gone mostly unnoticed about Ben Ali's coup d'etat being called a Jasmine

The term "Jasmine Revolution" has been coined in Tunisia and if used elsewhere, it is only because of the rippling effects of the Tunisian Revolution on other uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). I know for a fact that nobody has ever called the Iranian uprising that started after

However, for a redirect, what is important is the name, not the contents and AfD keep arguments. The title "Jasmine Revolution" only really seems to be the Western media's name for the Tunisian revolution, and the Chinese attempted protest movement's own name for its attempted protest movement. i

It is my opinion that it is too early to do away with this page, as we have not seen all of the potential repercussions from the Tunisian Revolution. If no new countries are affected and the situation in China does not progress, then yes, delete this article. However, if the revolts continue to

If the two events were unrelated, the Chinese government would not block searches for "jasmine". While the background issues are different, I assert that the inspiration that the Chinese protesters derived from Tunisian events is enough to legitimise this article.

This article is so easy to 'decode', you can see the motive some Users desperately creating the news to relate China with the unrest in African countries. The world today knows that the economy of the US is largely affected by China, perhaps an

title of the article itself is highly questionable to begin with, and much of the content would need to be removed, as it is unrelated to the topic of the article. The content that would remain is actually duplicating the content of

I feel Wiki should not compete with the daily media: is this an online tabloid or an encyclopedia? If the latter, then Wiki should only record political events after the fact or found a "WikiTimes" with "Breaking News".

I came to this article today, and I was confused by the redundancy of the first two bullet points. Looking at this talk page and the edit history, it looks like the first point was intended to be about the rise of
