Requesting merger with June 2013 Egyptian protests

In order for this article to receive Good Article status, it must be deleted - with approx. 66% of the article (specifically the good stuff) merged into June 2013 Egyptian protests (that's the article I'll nominate).

Rather than outright call the removal of Morsi a coup, which is POV, you should say that it's been called a coup by Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood, Sisiphobes (Sisiphobes may not be Islamists, but sure they hate the 2013 revolution, the former military figure Abdel Fattah el-Sisi who announced Morsi's removal on July 3, 2013 to the applause of 14-to-33 million protesters, hence the name), and many organizations loyal to the Brotherhood and/or Hamas - the term quickly becoming popular usage for the incident among some Western observers.

Many Sisiphobes here on Wikipedia will want this article separate and promote their revolution-hating POV, which "consensus" agrees with, because their view of Egypt post-revolution - though not necessarily the rest of the world - largely agrees with the Muslim Brotherhood and its cause. And you Sisiphobes are the reason I can't make bold edits without getting reverted; I get angry when you revert, restore my edits, then end up in an edit war.

I disagree with a merger. As for your claims, they have all been addressed on various talk pages relating to coups or Egyptian politics over the last year. You have yet to respond to any of this in substantive manner or provide reliable sources to back up your position, opting instead to throw accusations at users, bully them (threatening them on their user pages and baselessly requesting sanctions on them) and regularly make edits that go against consensus.

Zakawer was blocked only 10 days ago for ignoring RS and editor consensus that our name for this event, "coup d'etat," should not be renamed to "removal." Now Zakawer's first edits, returning to the project, are to replace "coup" with "protests" at the Egypt historical review article, and propose here that the two articles be merged. This is another obvious and willful rejection of the consensus described above and I've reported Zakawer here. I hope this is not heavy-handed but Zakawer has been repeatedly warned, and at this point every signal they've given points to disdain for other wikipedians and for contemporary knowledge about the events in Egypt. -Darouet (talk) 18:26, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
