Talk:Tunisia Effect

Merge proposal

I believe that these three articles should be merged into one article, as they describe very similar things, with very similar circumstances around them. I have no suggestion as to what title the combined page should be called, though it will not be "Tunisia Effect".

Tunisia Effect is a probably non-notable neologism. Domino theory is a bit different to that of a revolutionary wave, because it is a specific example, and does not necessarily require multiple revolutions, although it is usually presented as such. Either way, there's no advantage in merging a well-developed, notable article on a specific instance of something with a reasonable article on the general concept.

Actually, I now see this article is up for deletion, with what appears to be a consensus to merge in to revolutionary wave, so this proposal is redundant. Warofdreams talk 09:30, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Oh, but it is not redundant because it should not be merged or deleted.--68.115.190.162 (talk) 14:32, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

it should not be deleted or merged. It is a current event with great significance. Considering there is not a strong term for movement yet, the tunisia effect is generally effective at getting the point across until a more proper term can be used; at which point I would redirect this article title to that term and copy/paste the existing article into the new one.99.82.241.118 (talk) 18:19, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

It is just a specific instance of revolutionary wave, and we already have two articles on that concept, revolutionary wave and domino theory. There's no need for three articles, when you only need one article. 65.95.14.96 (talk) 00:23, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Tunisia effect has been redirected and I agree that the other two are quite different. Tags should be removed from both articles. CarolMooreDC (talk) 04:20, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
