FWIW, I don't think that the Tiananmen Square tank photo is a good comparison.  Those protests were quite well-known and had worldwide media coverage before that incident happened.  The pepper spraying incident at UC Davis brought an enormous amount of attention to the demonstration.  I think that the argument against it boils down to saying that it's a single incident that isn't representative of a several weeks long protest.  I would counter that this single incident is the entire reason that the protest is notable in the first place.  Frankly if this incident hadn't happened, I'd be in favor of deleting the Occupy UC Davis article and folding the content into a larger article about the Occupy movement.  Without the pepper spray incident, very few people outside of the local area would even know about the protests at UC Davis, and I'm sure that many people all over the world would have never even known about the school's existence.  ·
