International Material Gifts From Outside Mainland China During the 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests → ? – This article needs a better title; "International Material Gifts From Outside Mainland China During the 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests" doesn't seem to capture it. At a minimum, the case needs to be fixed, but there are probably better words for it. Any suggestions?

  • Agree. The "from outside mainland China" is redundant because how could you have International gifts from inside China? Also the title is confusing as I thought when first reading that it might be gifts to the Chinese government not the protesters. The title doesn't make it clear who the recipient is. May I suggest, "International assistance to the 1989 Tiananmen Square protesters" or even "International assistance to Tiananmen protesters". Rincewind42 (talk) 05:44, 9 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
I think shorter is better (within reason), so while those are both good suggestions, I prefer "International assistance to Tiananmen protesters". TJRC (talk) 17:51, 9 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Merge discussion

Upon researching JFG's suggestion about merge, I discovered a related article Finances of Student Organizations during the Tiananmen Square Protests of 1989. (It seems that both articles were created by throwaway accounts of the same person, so it's useless to ping the authors). In my opinion it would make more sense to merge these two articles into one, rather than into comprehensive 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests. I'm at loss at the title, though.
