More than half of this stub is about a controversy this individual is involved in, with possible editorializing / WP:BLP issues. User:Buidhe, could you expand it a bit/add inline citations/quotes to address this? TIA, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:15, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

War criminal?

[edit]

This article is categorized under Category:People convicted of war crimes but right now that term is not used in the article; instead the article states he was acquited (but does not make it very clear what he was acquited of). Such terms are not used in his Polish Wikipedia article. Should those categories be removed from here? @Dreamcatcher25 @Buidhe Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:13, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't remember if he was convicted (then acquitted) of war crimes, you would have to check the cited sources for the exact charges brought. (t · c) buidhe 02:29, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Since the term is not used in the body, it should not be used in the categories. This is pretty simple, no? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:53, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, we can argue about him being a "war criminal", but the article clearly says he wasn't ever convicted. Marcelus (talk) 21:28, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
