Why isnt BLM / ANTIFA terrorism mentioned at all?

[edit]

Why isnt ANTIFA / BLM terrorism mentioned at all, i mean the city is overrun by these wackos and living for normal people is hell in Portland because of them, yet nothing is mentioned in the article. "Crime section" only covers up to 2014 also. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.157.40.32 (talk) 10:36, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to draft well-sourced claims and share here, otherwise this drive-by comment isn't very helpful... ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:21, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the harm done by protesters is covered in 1.4.1 already, and there hasn't been much violence since then. 50.53.190.14 (talk) 04:16, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The KKK activities and the history of African American being banned also needs more added, but your a white supremacist, who wants to feel oppressed 2601:8C:B80:6660:9C01:7AF3:6A20:2DDE (talk) 12:45, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
wikipedia is a neutral site, and adding most of these claims which aren't all that notable will make the article clearly biased Bluehalooo (talk) 22:54, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Important people

[edit]

Requested move 12 February 2023

[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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: snow close, not moved, leave Portland as a dab page, as it did in 2006, 2009, 2015, and 2022. tedder (talk) 06:21, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]


– I know this will be controversial, however Portland is the only place that is widely known as Portland, hence it fulfils WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Portland, Maine and the Isle of Portland both have different titles and are much smaller and less widely known places. Surely if Portland, Oregon can't be simply "Portland", then Perth, Australia shouldn't be allowed to be called simply "Perth" on Wikipedia.

Of course, in conjunction with this Portland would have to be moved to Portland (disambiguation). --- Tbf69 userpage • usertalk 16:06, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note: pages with content, such as Portland, are ineligible as new titles in move requests unless they, too, are proposed to be renamed. PortlandPortland (disambiguation) has been added to this request to satisfy that requirement. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. put'er there 17:44, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
