Crimes against humanity is a specific legal concept. In order to be included in the category, the event (s) must have been prosecuted as a crime against humanity, or at a bare minimum be described as such by most reliable sources. Most of the articles that were formerly in this category did not mention crimes against humanity at all, and the inclusion of the category was purely original research.

More of a question: should there be a section about the US being prosecuted for war crimes? Off hand I can think of the International People's Tribunal finding Biden guilty of war crimes and I'm sure there are other instances. NyanThousand (talk) 11:13, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
