Talk:2022 Wellington protest

Notice

NB: This Wikipedia article has had its contents and references copied over from Convoy 2022 NZ after agreement was reached on the talk page to make a page for this event. The original contents on that Wikipedia page has now been shortened.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Lord A.Nelson (talk • contribs)

• Thanks @Lord A.Nelson: for transferring the content over to a new article. This is the longest and most sustained of the COVID-19 protests in NZ. Previous protests did not involve protesters setting up camp and occupying public spaces. Have added a copy tag to the top of the article. Please remember to do that in the future.

Title

The protest is often written as "Convoy 2022 NZ", however, I have written "NZ" out in full for clarity (NZ → New Zealand). If it should be abbrviated, then feel free to move the page to a new title. --Lord A.Nelson (talk) 11:22, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

?

Maybe I'm misremembering, but I could have sworn there used to be mention of the Bowen House Action Zealandia video in the article? Don't see it any more. Whether it was ever there or not, it ought to be added. --Pokelova (talk) 02:00, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Title move

"Convoy 2022 New Zealand" is what the protestors want it to be known as. But it is a decentralised event with a wide range of participants with a range of viewpoints- not all of them subscribe to the Canadian "convoy" idea. We should rename it to "2022 Wellington Anti-Mandate and Anti-Vaccine protest"--222.153.41.232 (talk) 01:11, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

That is waaaaay too wordy. We should stick to what the media calls it. --Pokelova (talk) 03:04, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

I would not be in favor of changing the name. Joe (talk) 06:09, 17 February 2022 (UTC)\

A title change might not be a bad idea as Convoy 2022 New Zealand isn't really descriptive. Could just go for Wellington anti-vaccine mandate protest or New Zealand anti-vaccine mandate protest if we want it to cover the minor ones in other parts of NZ. Aircorn (talk) 15:41, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

I don't think it should be changed. The name came from the convoy that started back on 6 February, and this is a continuation of that nation-wide convoy. Very similar to the Canada convoy protest, which that title is fine. --Lord A.Nelson (talk) 23:55, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Dispute

221.1153.41.232, Pokelova, I have blocked both of you from editing the article for 24 hours for continual edit-warring. Please discuss your differences here. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 14:44, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Alright, in order to not get blocked again, @221.1153.41.232:, let me explain to you again what is wrong with some of your edits since you have added them back. And hopefully somebody will back me up on this, because you're making me want to pull my fucking hair out.
