Oppose - these are separate notable events that deserve a standalone article. Shaheen of Iqbal (talk) 07:57, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Confused

 Comment: This article should be about the events of March 2023: Imran Khan arrest attempts and the resulting clashes. But they added information about other unrelated protests.--Fontaine347 (talk) 15:37, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@

NYMan6: I’m not sure what’s supposed to be split or merged, but splitting the latest protests makes more sense than merging to me. Blaylockjam10 (talk) 01:30, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply

I support this split. furthermore, "
2023 Imran Khan arrest attempts" should be merged into "March 2023 Pakistani clashes".--Fontaine347 (talk) 15:35, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply

I'd support merging the
2023 Imran Khan arrest attempts article w/the pre-arrest protests in this article & splitting this article into 2 articles: 1 about the pre-arrest protests & 1 about the post-arrest protests. Blaylockjam10 (talk) 03:00, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply

I have not gone through all the discussion in detail but pre-arrest protests & 1 about the post-arrest protests can be a good idea.
There are multiple articles on ongoing politics in Pakistan I hope these discussions help optimizing them.
On side note, it's perfectly understandable some or other side will have more political support that shall reflect to some extent in Wikipedian's editing. In regard to Pakistan politics sides other than Imran Khan seem to get lesser consideration. There seem to be some scope to balance that a little better for sake of Wikipedia's neutrality.

Lead figures?

I feel that the lead figures section of the infobox is missing some information. Namely PTI leadership before the arrest, leaderships of the various police and military wings involved. Khan's wife?

Or should we just keep that section as minimal as possible to avoid cluttering? Scu ba (talk) 00:31, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

2023 Zaman Park raid

I would welcome more informed opinions as to whether

2023 Zaman Park raid should be a stand-alone article or a redirect to here. The merge discussion above may or may not be relevant. Certes (talk) 12:35, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply

Indeed. There was a discussion which led to a consensus to merge, and I don't think that should be overridden without a discussion.  — Amakuru (talk) 23:05, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The merge has been reversed again (from
