No kid zones

@Rsk6400: Reliable sources do describe no kid zones as discrimination. I disagree with your removal here [1]. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 12:29, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

I'm not opposed to the inclusion, but I saw that the article doesn't include this template, and an (admittedly superficial) survey of the references in the article didn't show me such sources. Would you mind adding some quotes and this template to the article ? Rsk6400 (talk) 13:34, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
Afterthought: I'm a teacher, and so I have absolutely no sympathy for discrimination against (parents with) children. Rsk6400 (talk) 13:35, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
This CNN source goes into the 2017 ruling about it [2]. This is a widespread phenomena where kids are banned and some areas even have "no senior" zones. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 13:39, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
"The ruling ... is not legally binding and critics say the ongoing popularity of no-kids zones highlights how hard it will be to change people’s mindsets." - If discrimination is prohibited by the constitution and there is only a non-binding ruling calling those zones "discrimination", that doesn't seem really convincing. Rsk6400 (talk) 13:47, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
I don't think you need something to be legally prohibited for it to count as discrimination. Excluding people based on their characteristics is generally what discrimination is about. The Washington Post article also goes into this. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 13:50, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
See Discrimination#Age. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 13:53, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
My idea was not, that something had to be prohibited by law to be called so. My idea was that if in a state where rule-of-law works fairly well (like South Korea) discrimination is prohibited, and NKZ are not prohibited, it is doubtful that they should be called "discrimination". All in all: We need WP:RS, because WP:OR is against our guidelines. Rsk6400 (talk) 12:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
And I'm telling you that it's not OR. But I give up. Maybe someone else will understand what I mean by all this someday. I suppose my bar for inclusion in a template like this is much lower than yours. Describing no kid zones as discriminatory is common in reliable sources even if the situation is more complicated and not unanimous but that could describe other articles listed on the template as well. My understanding is that the human rights commission can't make legally binding decisions at all so I think their ruling on the matter is quite significant, especially since it mentions the constitution [3]. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 13:56, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I've included our disagreement at WP:3O because templates are a relatively niche area and I'd prefer a third opinion. [4] Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 18:29, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

3O Response: Two reliable sources (CNN and Maeil Business Pulse) identify the Korean human rights authority's listing "No kid zone" as discriminative. Listing this article on the Discrimination template is not original research, as the topic is comparable to Ageism#Discrimination. See the second paragraph in that section describing results of children's responses to Children's Rights Alliance for England and the National Children's Bureau survey. Forms of discrimination need not be prohibited by law to qualify as discrimination. — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 20:18, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Should we add an article

Should the article Triple oppression be added to the template, if so where? Considering oppression is in it as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atakes Ris (talkcontribs) 03:05, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

If we're going by technical definition, Israeli is a nationality while Zionism is a political belief. One could argue that Israeli isn't a nationality as per Ornan v. Ministry of the Interior but even if that were the case, discrimination against any person living in Israel would still not necessarily be anti-Zionism.

It seems no one discussed it yet. The Ethnic/National section of {{Discrimination}} is highly policed by editors, I don't know how that passed. Web-julio (talk) 19:49, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
Wait I just realized that Anti-israeli redirects to Anti-zionism. And for whatever reason, Anti-Israeli (with a capital I) links to a disambig page? A page talking about anti-Israeli sentiment doesn't even exist.
Holy hell! AmrAlWatan(🗣️|📝) 02:27, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
Anti-israeli redirects to Anti-zionism.” Corrected now. — HTGS (talk) 02:55, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
And just because something is well-policed doesn’t mean it is policed well… — HTGS (talk) 02:58, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
First of all, thanks for the redirect edit above.
Second, I agree with this statement. What do you suggest we do? AmrAlWatan(🗣️|📝) 03:47, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
It's a bit confusing that the link actually is at Template:Discrimination and only transcluded here. The template is used in the footer of Anti-Zionism, so the article should remain linked from here (unless somebody wants to start a possibly endless discussion at Talk:Anti-Zionism). But I agree that it is confusing, so I moved it to "Jewish". But I'm not sure if that's a really good solution. If anybody has a better (or less bad) idea, feel free to fix. Rsk6400 (talk) 06:42, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your edit!
There's a more pressing matter at hand, in my opinion: Back in 2010, 46% of Israeli Jews identified as "Jewish" before "Israeli", and I doubt that an Arab living in Israel would identify as "Israeli" (although I could be wrong). Do we need an article about anti-Israeli sentiment? Does "Israeli" even exist? Also, where do I make this topic more... known? I'm a little new to this Wikipedia stuff so I'd like to get some more opinions, especially from actual Israelis. AmrAlWatan(🗣️|📝) 20:19, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
German Wikipedia had an article on anti-Israelism, but it got redirected. I noticed the articles New antisemitism and Three Ds of antisemitism talk about it, so some of their content can be reused. I couldn't find an existing article in another Wikipedia, such as Hebrew Wikipedia. Web-julio (talk) 00:45, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
I think Wikipedia beat us to the punch. The Israelis article does not mention anything about it being a unique identity, only that it describes "citizens and nationals of the State of Israel". I'll take this to WP:VP and see what they think. AmrAlWatan(🗣️|📝) 04:41, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
