2016–17 South Korean protests → Candle Revolution – Since the protests of the South Korean conservatives, those who are against the impeachment, are ongoing. Many books refer this anti-Park protest as the Candle Revolution(촛불혁명). [1] --조국 (talk) 07:07, 16 June 2017 (UTC) --Relisting. Anarchyte (work | talk) 15:42, 24 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. This name does not show up much in sources. — AjaxSmack 14:07, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What do you think we should do with future requests, AjaxSmack? They keep coming up every several months. --George Ho (talk) 02:17, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 20 August 2018[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Not moved. The article is about both pro-Park and counter-Park protests. Maybe a better title is needed, but the proposed one is not that. No such user (talk) 13:24, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

2016–17 South Korean protests → Park Geun-hye Resignation Movement

Protests against the impeachment of Park are ongoing in 2018. --PeaceTongil (talk) 03:21, 20 August 2018 (UTC) --Relisting. Brad v 14:22, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We should restore 2016–17 protests against the impeachment of Park Geun-hye and move it to Protests against the impeachment of Park Geun-hye --PeaceTongil (talk) 03:23, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:COMMONNAME. Thanks. --Garam (talk) 06:00, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

2016–17 South Korean protests is not common name --PeaceTongil (talk) 07:47, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Already "South Korean protests" is a common name. #1 Thanks. --Garam (talk) 13:48, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your article's title is 'South Korean protests demand President Park's resignation', not 'South Korean protests' --PeaceTongil (talk) 09:05, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that is the thing. --Garam (talk) 11:27, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@PeaceTongil: The protest seems to be for rather than against the impeachment. People who are against the impeachment do not want the person to be impeached. --Manduco (talk) 07:37, 31 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The header should be changed to 2016-2017[edit]

There is no reason to extend the date to 2018 for this entry. The mass protests ended in March 2017. The citation for the protests that occurred in 2018 provide NO new information, thus I have deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jchunucla (talk • contribs) 18:19, 6 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
