Redundant?
Wow, you mean this didn't already exist elsewhere? HuskyHuskie (talk) 20:13, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
 * It's really hard to believe this article doesn't already exist, but I don't see it elsewhere. HuskyHuskie (talk) 20:18, 19 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, my thoughts exactly. Thanks for fixing the capitalization thing. Anyways, I've begun to sketch the lineaments of what the page could look like. Obviously there is a lot yet to be done. I look forward to working on it more. Homunculus (duihua) 20:24, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

See Template:21st-century unrest in China if you want to do work in updating this summary article. Boud (talk) 11:12, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge proposal
Propose Mass incidents in China be merged into this article as there is heavy WP:OVERLAP and it is largely a sub-set of this article that could be nicely woven into it. Amigao (talk) 18:06, 27 November 2022 (UTC)


 * There is quite a bit of overlap, but the topic is broad enough that it would probably be worth it being both merged and then split. Protest and dissent in China is mostly thematic, on types of protests, so a chronological split (1989-1990s vs 2000s, 2010s, 2020s) might clash with that. Probably a Timeline of protests in China (XXIst century), with 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre in a background section, would make sense. That way the merger of the content of Mass incidents in China into this one could be done, which would extend it somewhat, and the timeline part of this article would become a briefer summary of a separate timeline article. See Category:Protests in China for notable protests for a timeline. Boud (talk) 00:02, 28 November 2022 (UTC) And 21st-century unrest in China as in my comment in the section just above :).

Neutrality
I have concerns about the neutrality of this article. From the tone of the opening sentence, through to all of the sentences with citations requested against them, this article appears to be a anti-China exercise with a minimum of referenced material addressing the topic. 14.2.192.61 (talk) 05:24, 20 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I'll start with a change to the first sentence and review some of the citation needed propositions. JArthur1984 (talk) 13:02, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
