Wow, wow, wow. You guys won't believe this that I had NOT looked at this page BEFORE I renamed the article. Since the result of the RM on the talk page of Ivory Coast was to moved, so I checked every other articles that still used "Côte d'Ivoire" and moved to "Ivory Coast". I didn't expect that there was a separated RM for this article. ༆ (talk) 07:45, 6 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

The merge of Pupils and Students Trade Union of Côte d'Ivoire and Students and Pupils Movement of Côte d'Ivoire were actually performed WP:BOLDly back in 2020 but my redirect of both has been undone now 2 years later as an undiscussed move. As there is little sourcing available to support the notability of the source articles, I believe the best WP:ATD is a merge. ♠PMC(talk) 03:49, 11 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose - The notion that the main student organization in the country, with plenty of academic sources available as references, the sole legal student organization in country for over 30 years and effectively the school of the political elite would not be sufficiently notable for a stand-alone article is a clear-cut case of systematic bias. --Soman (talk) 12:26, 11 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Comment, regarding USEECI;
    • "Les faits décrits plus haut montrent à l'évidence que la création de l'USEECI en 1971 ne constituait pas à proprement parler une rupture d'avec des événements du même calibre survenus précédemment en 1956 , 1960 et 1969."[1]
    • "Distribution by the latter's members [i.e. USEECI] of a tract couched in terms hardly favorable to the Government and MEECI , led the Ivory Coast authorities to forbid a meeting of the USEECI Provisional Central Committee in the last week of March. A “ protest meeting ” , followed by a well - suported strike , took place at the University ; the Government's response was to decide to close the University ."[2]
    • "La création de l'Union Syndicale des Etudiants et Elèves de Côte d'Ivoire ( U.S.E.E.C.I. ) et l'arrestation de ses leaders en mars 1971 est encore un épisode des..."[3]
    • "...Union syndicale des élèves et étudiants de Côte - d'Ivoire ) . En mars 1971 tous les responsables de l'U.S.E.E.C.I . sont arrêtés , bastonnés et emprisonnés dans les camps militaires d'Akouédo et de Séguéla ( les filles seront ..."[4]
  • "...pour contrebalancer la création du MEECI ( Mouvement des Élèves et Étudiants de Côte d'Ivoire ) très proche du pouvoir , avaient créé un nouveau syndicat , l'USEECI ( Union Syndicale des Étudiants et Élèves de Côte d'Ivoire)."[5]
  • "...contre le MEECI un comité provisoire des Etu diants « contestataires » qui prendra le nom de USEECI ( Union Syndicale des Etudiants et Elèves de Côte d'Ivoire ) ."[6]
Barring that first source, the majority of those seem to be single-line or very short references to the USEECI in the context of the 1970s era student movement in Ivory Coast, especially in the context of it being in conflict with the regime-friendly MEECI. I'm not saying they're unreliable, but they're not enough SIGCOV to justify a separate article. It makes no sense to have separate articles about the two organizations when the entire student movement could be covered in a single article that provides context to both. ♠PMC(talk) 21:31, 12 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'd say the refs provided above give good indication of notability of USEECI. SIGCOV cannot be applied in mechanical way (here considering that the organization peaked in early 1970s, pre www), there is clearly affirmation of notability to warrant separate article. --Soman (talk) 12:42, 31 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
