Category:American terrorists

 * Terrorist is value-laden politicized term not suitable for Wikipedia category. Violates NPOV policies, is vague and undefined. The person or authority attributing the title of terrorist should be identified. FBI Most Wanted Terrorists Alberuni 17:44, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Useful term and an interesting category. Keep. jguk 23:56, 31 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * DELETE. Obviously POV title. (Would you like "Category:Jewish terrorists"?) HistoryBuffEr 02:59, 2004 Nov 1 (UTC)
 * Keep. Stereotek 12:33, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep, unless there is suddenly a "NPOV" "alternative" for an understood term. -- user:zanimum
 * Delete - Obviously POV title unless all these organisations clearly refer to themselves as terrorists. --Axon 14:04, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. - POV problem as superbly described by John Tinker, however I can see the problem now: Some terrorist categories will be deleted for NPOV and others not, which would make the discussion even more obscene. I think there should be an overall vote on the use of the word "terrorist" as opposed to the individual plucking of the groups. Why are we each voting 10 times when we are saying one thing that applies ten times? Tarek 07:23, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete the category. There's no place for POV-laden lists of "terrorists", and I seriously doubt whether any of these organisations would accept the allegation of "terrorism". Also, if various political movements are to be listed as "American terrorists", I see no reason not to add the CIA as well. Shorne 12:14, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
