Clarification needed

Should Federico García Lorca be listed? He was killed by a firing squad, but it was a summary execution at the start of the Spanish Civil War: no legal process at all. Where is the line between a bunch of thugs with guns and a firing squad? - Jmabel | Talk 00:23, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the question arises regarding the tsar family during the Russian revolution (see Talk:Alexandra of Hesse and by Rhine (Alexandra Fyodorovna)#Was the execution extrajudicial?) __meco 01:43, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I see that García Lorca is still in; whichever way we go, the two should presumably be treated the same. - Jmabel | Talk 16:52, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Breaker Morant

Harry 'Breaker' Morant should be listed, as should Lt Peter Handcock described on the Morant page. Bungo77 13:21, 30 May 2007 (UTC) {{editprotected}}[reply]

To categorize these people, you need to edit the specific articles, rather than the category. Please see WP:CAT for further detail. --After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 16:07, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ahah. I guess that was in a FAQ somewhere. Thanks for the pointer. Bungo77 07:41, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
