Extrajudicial killings/war crimes[edit]

@XTheBedrockX: a soldier repeatedly and intentionally shooting a surrendering civilian under the (false) impression that he was a terrorist is an extrajudicial killing. It can be, but it isn't automatically. Similarly with the war crimes category - neither of these are uncontroversial categories (war crime allegations aren't even mentioned in the article) so per WP:CATPOV we shouldn't be using them.

@BilledMammal remove the war crimes category if you want, but no evidence has been provided on how this is not an extrajudicial killing. A soldier shooting and killing a civilian without due process is still clearly illegal. XTheBedrockX (talk) 21:30, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's more complicated than that - and in this context, where nobody has yet been convicted of a crime, it violates both WP:CATPOV and WP:BLPCRIME to say this was an extrajudicial killing - an illegal killing. BilledMammal (talk) 21:36, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
