December 2023 Harvard-Harris Poll[edit]

Unless I skipped over some pages, which specific page (or pages) of the December 2023 Harvard-Harris Poll [1] mentions Generation Z? Even though the 18–24 year old respondents are technically Generation Z, I'd prefer to see the source actually using the terms "Generation Z", "Gen Z", etc. because it seems a bit WP:OR-ish for us to call them "Generation Z respondents" without the source using those terms.

Causes/Factors leading to the rise in Gen Z support of Palestine[edit]

I feel that on this subject we should have a section that lists potential reasons why this trend is showing. If there isn’t enough evidence that could show why this is the case, then yeah. If it’s somewhat mentioned elsewhere then that’s fine too. Let me know and decide how to create it. Thanks. 2001:EE0:4F81:6E20:7C56:87A3:9771:F30F (talk) 07:01, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think the Generation_Z_and_the_Israel–Hamas_war#Conversion_to_Islam section partly explains why this trend is growing, e.g. ... has attributed this trend to a desire among Generation Z to rebel against Western values and what’s more rebellious, what’s more anti-Western and anti-capitalism and anti-establishment, than a conversion to Islam?".

Feedback from New Page Review process[edit]

I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: I appreciate the intent behind this article's creation, but I have several concerns with its content. I'm still not convinced on whether this is a notable subject for an article, and seems like an unencyclopedic cross-categorization between the topic of Generation Z and the topic of the Israel–Hamas war. The statistics are also problematic, and the fact that the statistics about a particular demographic have been picked out in exclusion of the other data in the reports/surveys seems like original research.
