Howard: How would you feel about adopting a format similar to that of Great Recession and transferring country-by-country detail to an addendum, and concentrating the main page (mainly) upon consecutive narratives? (Perhaps there might be 2 narratives, one about the Arab states and one about internatinal responses?) Nick Gardner 05:10, 28 April 2011 (CDT)

Let me go look at Great Recession. I need to understand what you have in mind as narrative.
Nevertheless, I think you have a good idea. My recommendation, however, would be to put country-by-country revolts into separate articles rather than an addendum. That would make it much easier for other articles to link to them. For example, if there were an article on "2011 Libyan revolt" or whatever it's called, the main Libya article, the articles on Operation ODYSSEY DAWN and Operation UNIFIED PROTECTOR, perhaps something on refugee flow into Tunisia, the younger Qadaffi, etc., all would link to it.
