The result of the debate was rename --Kbdank71 14:58, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Since Category:Terrorist organizations was recently deleted (after a lengthy debate), should these then be deleted or renamed per the same reasoning? Radiant_* 07:43, May 20, 2005 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. Delete. -- Jmabel | Talk 23:31, May 20, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. The vote taken for Category:Terrorist organizations also apply to these, and they should have been deleted at the same time. -- Viajero | Talk 14:16, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep lots of terrorist organizations that need to be kept in catagories. Klonimus 04:44, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * This does bring up something that wasn't mentioned in this discussion. Category:Terrorist organizations ended up being renamed to Category:Irregular military (not a wonderful title, but one that most people could live with).  Do we plan to rename these categories along the same lines?  --Azkar 04:55, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * With all of the delete votes, I was just going to move all of the articles into Category:Irregular military and delete the cats above. Would anyone have a problem with that?  --Kbdank71 13:50, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Not really, considering the really inconsistent way they're presently categorized ("Islamic", "Left-Wing", "Northern Ireland" and "Based in the US" can all cross-sect...) Radiant_* 21:39, May 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * Kbdank71: ok with me. -- Viajero | Talk 22:20, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Not all organizations labelled terrorist are military. I would call them category:Violent organizations, or even more precise: category:Violent political organizations (to exclude, like, mafia), with a clear criterion: organizations that declare or de-facto use violence (not necessarily armed) as an instrument in pursuing its goals. What do you think? mikka (t) 19:01, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I find 'violent organization' somewhat misleading... it reminds me of, for instance, hooligan-like sports fanclubs. Or anything related to the organization of martial arts tournaments. Or the NRA, possibly. Radiant_* 21:03, May 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * As far as the Northern Ireland ones go I suggest renaming to "Proscribed organisations of Northern Ireland" and "Reputed terrorists of Northern Ireland". Proscribed Organisations are beyond argument cos they simply are or are not Proscribed, although Reputed Terrorists might be a little more difficult, as in one side seeing someone as a Terrorist the other seeing the same person as a Freedom Fighter...just my two penn'orth..
 * Just make sure all the groups are moved over properly and the cats aren't simply deleted, it's a great reference to see all the current groups like those listed under "Islamic Terrorist Orgs", but without the POV naming convention.--Sherurcij 21:45, May 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * How about Militant Political Groups. The BBC likes to use this describe terrorists. For example "Militants associated with the Militant Political Group Hamas have killed 13 people in a suicide bus bombing." Klonimus 07:55, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * The BBC wouldn't use clumsy wording like that - more likely they would say "13 people were killed in a suicide bus bombing, carried out by members of the Palestinian militant group Hamas." GCarty 11:41, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * My suggestions:


 * Category:Palestinian terrorists -> already moved to Category:Palestinian militants
 * Category:Zionist terrorist organizations -> already moved to Category:Militant Zionist groups
 * Category:Islamic terrorist organizations -> already moved to Category:Jihadist organizations
 * Category:Leftist terrorist organizations -> already moved to Category:Left-wing militant groups
 * Category:Palestinian terrorist organizations -> already moved to Category:Palestinian militant groups
 * Category:Terrorist organizations in Northern Ireland -> already moved to Category:Proscribed paramilitary organizations in Northern Ireland
 * Category:Northern Ireland terrorists -> delete and replace with categories pertaining to individual orgs...


 * Category:Terrorist organizations based in the United States -> move to Category:United States domestic terrorist organizations
 * Category:Terrorists by region -> delete

 * I can live with that. --Azkar 18:27, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or Rename. GCartys suggestions are good. 80.203.115.12 09:19, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * With regards to the US based category, do we just want to basically shuffle the words around? I thought we were trying to get rid of "terrorist organization".  Shouldn't we go with the rest and make it something like Category:United States domestic militant groups?  --Kbdank71 17:54, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Or just leave it, since there wouldn't be much change? --Kbdank71 17:18, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
