Still NOTNEWS; not significant besides being part of the larger global movement. Previous discussion closed as "no consensus" two months ago; article's been pretty much stale since then.

Also, reading the article, it appears that this was little more than a demonstration against the building of a Starbucks. There have been a myriad of protests against the erection of Starbucks, Walmarts, etc; virtually of them non-notable in the singular. Especially since this one doesn't appear to have lasted very long.

Delete as NOT what Wikipedia is about - NOT campaigning, NOT ephemeral news. Chiswick Chap (talk) 20:55, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Occupy protest locations#Occupy Starbucks. --Lambiam 14:42, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as not notable. It is also not an "offshoot" of the Occupy movement (except for a cynical appropriation of its name). It is a part of an ongoing (over the last 15 years) protest by certain leftist and rightist student groups in Turkey against American brands of multinational food outlets trading inside Turkish university campuses.

Delete, not notable event. Maybe if it gets noticed by the wider world mention it in List of Occupy movement protest locations S_peakF_ree ^(talk)_(contribs) 21:38, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per Lambiam. The event is not notable enough to merit a standalone article, per nom & others.--JayJasper (talk) 20:44, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
