Requested move 21 January 2023

2023 Tel Aviv protests2023 Israeli protests – Protests are also taking place in Haifa and Jerusalem. Might be better to use a more specific name, like 2023 protests against Benjamin Netanyahu, or 2023 protests against the thirty-seventh government of Israel. Would love to hear other potential ideas.

The name certainly needs an update. Could also be "2023 anti Judicial reform protests" or "2023 anti judicial revolution protests" given that that seems to be the main issue being protested against. "2023 protests against Benjamin Netanyahu" makes the most sense to me, to be consistent with the 2020–2021 protests against Benjamin Netanyahu page. Danido9 (talk) 17:47, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I live in Israel and people are protesting all over Israel from eilat to rosh pina, and are planning to protest even outside of israel.
Therefore, I recommend "2022-2023 anti Judicial reform protests". אקסינו (talk) 22:04, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's probably the best option, although these protests didn't start in 2022 as far as i'm aware. I think "2023 Israeli anti-Judicial reform protests" is an accurate and descriptive name. Although "2023 Israeli protests" or "2023 protests against Benjamin Netanyahu" might also be good options since the protests might evolve to include other issues, such as the potential defunding of Kan 11.

Well there is no reason for the name not to be changed Ozerkatanmeod (talk) 19:12, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But what should it be changed to? Totalstgamer (talk) 19:18, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Probably "2023 anti-Netanyahu protests" or "2023 anti-Judicial reform protests" as Danido9 suggested, those make the most sense in my opinion. Ozerkatanmeod (talk) 09:33, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support The protests, which by the way are now larger than the page states ([yesterday figures were 130,000 in Tel Aviv alone] -- over 30% of the city's population), have now spread to other cities, even right-wing strongholds like [Beersheva] (this is not to say that the majority of the population there necessarily supports the protests, but they are present). There were actually protests in Haifa even in late December [[1]], so even the idea that they started in Tel Aviv is not entirely clear. It's not "a Tel Aviv thing". --Calthinus (talk) 18:52, 22 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fully support move. "2023 Israel constitutional crisis" or similar would be much, MUCH more appropriate. It's a national crisis, with the protests being one major aspect, and truly not restricted to Tel Aviv. Arminden (talk) 07:36, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
