Contested PROD: the reason provided for the proposal was "There is absolutely nothing significant about this article. Does not change a thing about the circumstances of the Syrian Civil War." JJPMaster (she/they) 14:12, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect - Bad justification reason but the article does fail to demonstrate why it needs its own article. Just redirect to Battle of Aleppo (2024) Rambling Rambler (talk) 14:17, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

- Agree, it's not that significant, a redirect to the Battle of Aleppo article should suffice. – Nar 2608 – 14:47, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support not worthy of a stand alone article. ByteBaldur (talk) 15:20, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect: to the article about the battle, I don't think his brother is as notable, Bashar was the leader of the country, this person wasn't. Oaktree b (talk) 16:58, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect:it should be redirected to the battle, bashar's brother wasnt the leader of the country Codonified (talk) 19:58, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Who is going to search for this? Geschichte (talk) 21:16, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete The article title has been moved to Toppling of Assad regime monuments, which still doesn't need to exist. Relevant content can be merged into Fall of the Assad regime. Tad Lincoln (talk) 22:45, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, I was the editor who put the notability tag on the article and the article still fails WP:GNG and the sourcing is only videos and no actual independent sources in the article. Cowboygilbert - (talk) ♥ 01:07, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. I disagree about the redirect. I seriously doubt readers will want to look up the toppling of this statue amongst the other things happening during this time. Conyo14 (talk) 04:18, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
- Delete or Merge with Fall of the Assad regime. No reason for merely a redirect as "Toppling of Bassel al-Assad's statue" is an unlikely search term. Wellington Bay (talk) 00:30, 11 December 2024 (UTC)
- Merge with Fall of the Assad regime. It's notable enough to be covered but not enough to have its own article, at least not yet. Charles Essie (talk) 20:32, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
- Merge – Without prejudice. Per above. Hurricane Clyde 🌀my talk page! 06:26, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
