Request

Please move this page back to Category:Palestinian terrorism. Unilateral and highly POV move without any discussion whatsoever. Debresser (talk) 19:45, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree any category in wikipedia should be combatible with its main article title. If this category should be moved then you should move the main article from palestanian political violence (which is neutral name) to palestanian terrorism (which is clearly biased name) befor moving the category.--مصعب (talk) 22:56, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such rule that we rename categories or articles just so that they should match. WP:EUPHEMISM is clear that we should not whitewash terrorism and call it anything but that. Debresser (talk) 23:04, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It just that wikipedia content should be maintained in the same manner that main article name should be combatible with the main category of it. This reflect unified naming crateria. There is no benifit from make the category name defferent from its main article. That's all. Regards--مصعب (talk) 23:23, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have moved the category back. Any move needs to go through the WP:CfD process. Number 5 7 23:37, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Number 57: From wp:category it stated that: Names of topic categories should be singular, normally corresponding to the name of a Wikipedia article. Examples: "Law", "France", "George W. Bush". And i think this rule apply here. So you violate a conventional rule but regarding me i just apply the conventional naming rule--مصعب (talk) 05:40, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You violated a much more serious rule: category renames should only be done through WP:CFD. That is apart form the POV problem and the euphemism. Debresser (talk) 13:44, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

that is your point of view. It is not correct that it is euphemism. If what you say is correct then why the main article is political violence? Is it a euphemism? It is the accurate term the political violence and the neutral term.--مصعب (talk) 14:28, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If you have read the article you are linking to, you should know that the first sentence in "Palestinian political violence" is "Palestinian political violence refers to acts of violence or terror undertaken to further the Palestinian cause." In other words, the article talks about terror done by Palestinians and other acts of violence not considered as traditional terrorism, like internal violence ("Intrafada") etc. "Palestinian terrorism" is not a recplacement to "Palestinian political violence", it is part of the Palestinian political violence.--Bolter21 15:17, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Does "Palestinian terrorism" mean only terrorism perpetrated by Palestinians, or can it also refer to terrorism perpetrated in the name of Palestine by non-Palestinians? --GCarty (talk) 18:10, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
