There is also a list of notable strikes under General Strike would it make more sense to include both lists in one place? Hmette 14:51, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
This list is very biased towards strikes in the USA and seems to ignore labor history before ~1890. Lumos3 11:28, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
- probably because those who have written it are from the United States and only have knowledge of events after 1890. Why don't you add some non US strikes occuring before 1890 to fix the problem. --The_stuart 13:29, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Strikes in France
I added the french strike that took place earlier this year to the list, but the french strikes on the 1990's isn't listed, and i didnt find an article, or reference on wikipedia about it. I don't quite rember the exact year it took place, either. It should be added to the list. Pyramide 17:21, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bad links
Either this list should be comprehensive and provide links where articles exist, or it should list only those strikes and general strikes which have Wikipedia articles. Creating a list which has a large number of red-links is not appropriate, especially when most of those red-links have remained that way for the better part of a year (e.g., no one has any intention of creating any articles for these strikes). I can also tell that this list is not meant to be comprehensive because 99 percent of strikes worldwide never appeared here. To clean up the list, I removed the inappropriate links and entries. - Tim1965 19:31, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
