דברי.הימים thanks for this! Unfortunately, there have been many such incidents lately. I think it might be necessary to break up some of the sections into multiple subheadings to make sure the article retains a coherent structure

Media Sources on Melbourne synagogue attack (Dec 2024)

[edit]

דברי.הימים (talk) 23:30, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@דברי.הימים Now that the Prime Minister visited, I'd imagine there are 100s of sources. Any reason why it hasn't been added to the article? MaskedSinger (talk) 19:40, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ignore that. I was searching using Adass! MaskedSinger (talk) 19:41, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

[edit]

2024 Australian Jewish doxxing incident seems to me like it would be better selectively merged into this article where it can be placed into broader context. It seems to be unlikely to get much follow-up coverage. Hemiauchenia (talk) 12:28, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose – the doxxing event is significant to warrant own article owing to widespread reporting of the event, the extent of the society's reaction, the knock on effects in terms of efforts to sanction those involved, the police response and the event's impact on legislation. Also, it appears that the event continues to receive coverage. דברי.הימים (talk) 21:52, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    n.b. per WP merge, the doxxing article would be too large to merge. it is currently 25% of the size of this general article covering the entire history of antisemitism in Australia. דברי.הימים (talk) 08:30, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support ArbCom just called out the problem of rampant WP:POVFORKs in this topic area and this looks like a prime example. Loki (talk) 03:13, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    This seems inaccurate. Per the guidelines, Povfork pertains to a case where the article was created following a dispute on the main page. This did not occur here, so Povfork does not apply. דברי.הימים (talk) 08:06, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support as per nomination. The news article listed above as an example of ongoing coverage only mentions the incident happened as part of a larger article criticising someone. Incidentally that newspaper is already extremely disproportionately cited at the article (ten sources), and analysis has showed they report on the broader issue in a biased manner [1]. That latter point is not grounds for merging in itself of course, I mention it to encourage people to look and decide for themselves if many of the sources that were chosen to write the initial article [2] are likely to cover this issue in an unbiased manner, and whether the choice of sources is evidence this was a POVFORK. Damien Linnane (talk) 06:04, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Re Povfork, see earlier comment why this does not seem to apply in this case. And reading your concern regarding one particular newspaper, I think I must be missing something here. Why is it an issue if one newspaper offers additional coverage about an event that is itself broadly covered? דברי.הימים (talk) 08:09, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It's an issue because the article gives undue weight to certain publications, and because you have gone out of your way to attempt to make it stay that way. At the article you actually removed 100% of sources that chose to cover this issue but gave a different point of view, specifically stating in your edit summary that your justification for doing so was "we cannot have a flood of opinion articles here" [3]. Why is it OK to cite one publication that feels strongly about one side of this issue ten times, but it's not OK to cite anything that doesn't completely agree with the narrative given by that over-cited publication? Your edits and your statement above give the impression you're actually very OK with a flood of dozens of opinion articles, but only if those opinion articles come from sources that you approve of. Now if you don't mind I'd prefer to agree to disagree about this and keep the discussion focused on the merge proposal. Damien Linnane (talk) 11:08, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, okay. Agree to disagree. דברי.הימים (talk) 22:43, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - it seems like it has significant notable coverage on its own. to Hemiauchenia, I ask, what specific context is missing? Bluethricecreamman (talk) 18:32, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I also haven't fully read through to see if the 2024 article fails NPOV, but I don't understand how it is a POV-fork of this article, as per Loki? Bluethricecreamman (talk) 05:58, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - The incident is still receiving coverage, albeit not in full but in part it is being mentioned. Two recent articles mention the leaked Whatsapp chat here [4] and here [5].
In terms of article size and sourcing, it would need to be significantly reduced to merge into the Antisemitism in Australia article which would remove much needed context. Chavmen (talk) 23:54, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - I agree with דברי.הימים and Chavmen points that a separate article on the topic is needed, for the reasons they mentioned. (HillelAmadeus (talk) 12:57, 30 January 2025 (UTC))[reply]

Note re: close

[edit]

@Loki, per WP:Merge, barring cases where a controversy occurs, any editor may close a merge discussion. In this case, the close reason is WP:Toolong which is uncontroversial, and uncontested. The only significant reason for the merge case cited in the discussion was povfork which clearly does not apply, per the discussion. I hope this clarifies things for you here. דברי.הימים (talk) 21:40, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A) Per WP:MERGE the mere fact that anyone disagreed with this merge makes it controversial. If it was uncontroversial someone could have just done it, and in that case probably would have.
B) Per WP:INVOLVED, you never get to close discussions where you are involved, period. What "involved" means can be subjective but !voting in the discussion is about as clear as it gets. Loki (talk) 03:39, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @LokiTheLiar, I will give your interpretation of the rules and this discussion the benefit of the doubt and leave the closing to someone else (I am not entirely sure how you are seeking to invoke WP: Involved in this case, as it does not seem to apply in the slightest). However, this does not change the status of the discussion which has editors opposing on several grounds and those in support offer an unexplained claim (and in my view, a somewhat spurious and reactionary claim) of povfork. In my view, there is nothing preventing the closing of the merge discussion, and this should not be deemed "controversial" in the plain sense of the word. דברי.הימים (talk) 04:04, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
