This really feels like meta-SYNTH from one Guardian article to me. I think it might be more interesting to ask if there shouldn't be a 2018-2019 Women's Protests based on what I've been reading about women's roles in the protests in Sudan, Algeria, and the yellow vests. But there's all sorts of ways of dividing people up. Still, I'm pretty sure Berbers and not all Sudanese people are considered Arab. Granted, part of the success of the Algerian protests has been that they didn't originate in Kabylie. In short, really not sure about pushing this so strongly through infoboxes.

This is not, at least yet, a second Arab Spring.
Analysts caution against declaring the advent of a new Arab Spring, not least because the unrest in Sudan and Algeria is taking place in rather different contexts.
I typically edit transit articles, but I think an article or a section here on the protests in Algeria would be warranted.-- Kew Gardens 613 ( talk) 22:58, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

Arab World protests (2018–19) → 2018–19 Arab protests – Format as a "when", "where", "what" title per convention at WP:NCEVENTS. Previously moved without discussion. The "List of protests" sections in this article also gives excellent examples of how the title should be consistently formatted.

I'm a bit confused about what links all these protests. The protests in Jordan and Tunisia ended several months before the ones in Algeria, the Gaza Strip and Sudan began and the protests in Iraq began several years earlier. It seems to me that only the events in Algeria and Sudan (and maybe the Gaza Strip) share any kind of common narrative comparable to the Arab Spring. I could be completely wrong about this, but I think it merits discussion. Charles Essie ( talk) 15:38, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
Should we make an article for the current protests. Alhanuty ( talk) 03:25, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
The term "MENA" is not correct, because the protests are limited to Arab League countries, while MENA also includes significant non-Arab states of Turkey, Iran, Israel and Cyprus. Arab League countries is the most correct location term. GreyShark ( dibra) 11:48, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
Kuwait 6 November 2019 - "Unlike previous demonstrations, no political organisations were invited and no speeches made" - sounds familiar... Kuwait is a constitutional monarchy, so this is somewhere in between the Lebanese and Iraqi cases in terms of political structures; the big difference is that 2/3 of the population are non-Kuwaitis; arrest at a demonstration could lead to deportation. Maybe wait to see if the protests are sustained before creating 2019 Kuwaiti protests... Boud ( talk) 00:32, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

Arab protests (2018–present) → Arab Spring 2.0. Mainstream media now refers as Arab Spring 2.0 than Arab protests. Arab protests was unknown in many mainstream media — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.137.188.124 ( talk) 01:29, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

The 2020 israeli protests don't get enough recognition on Wikipedia. They started so long ago and occur very frequently now, but they don't even have an article about it. I think we should add them to this article with a quick description, it should give us a basis to write an article later. (I know the title says Arab protests, but it's the middle east and it's relevant enough). https://www.dw.com/en/whats-behind-israels-growing-protests/a-54458406 https://www.timesofisrael.com/in-biggest-protest-yet-over-10000-rally-against-netanyahu-in-jerusalem/ https://www.france24.com/en/20200719-thousands-in-israel-protest-government-s-coronavirus-response https://www.dw.com/en/israel-protests-cause-netanyahu-problems/a-54243996 IveGonePostal ( talk)

The events began in 2018 and climaxed in 2019. Some references can still refer to Arab Spring 2.0 in 2020, but I cannot find any source on continuation of Second Arab Spring into 2021. The article should be renamed to 2018–2019 Arab protests or 2018–2020 Arab protests, or better simply Arab Spring 2.0. GreyShark ( dibra) 18:39, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
2022 already started, in addition, sudan is still having protests, and, lebanon and algeria may also have protests in the future, so, i think it would make sense. EpicWikiLad ( talk) 02:07, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

2018–2022 Arab protests → Second Arab Spring – The proposed title is more known by people, plus it's shorter and more captivating. WikipedianRevolutionary ( talk) 07:44, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
If you guys do not accept the Second Arab Spring title, then we should change it to the 2018-2023 Arab protests, as they are still ongoing. WikipedianRevolutionary ( talk) 07:45, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
I think there are plenty of sources about ongoing protests, though not always on mainstream media top headlines (I noticed some reports on protests in Sudan against the RSF/SAF fighting but didn't keep the URL), but it's not clear if these are covered encyclopedically in en.Wikipedia. If we don't have info on them, then the infobox should switch to some sort of a "closing" date, with a good source. If we do have info, then updates are needed, and then it would be justified to have one of the rare violations of WP:RELTIME in which we write that the protests "are a series ... which took place starting ..." instead of "were a series ..."
