NEW NOMINATIONS
Category:American people executed by decapitation
- Nominator's rationale: This category is a bit tricky. Of the twelve articles currently in the category, four relate to people were kidnapped and murdered by terrorists in one-or-another Middle Eastern war zone. I know media tend to use the word "execution" to refer to these murders, but including them in the same category as people who were found guilty of a crime and subjected to capital punishment seems problematic. Four more were apparently murdered, not "executed", in the United States. One was apparently murdered in the 1850s under circumstances I don't fully understand and I'm not sure if the word "execution" is appropriate or not. Two more were executed by hanging, but accidentally decapitated in the process -- this means they were technically both "executed" and "decapitated", but the implication of "executed by decapitation" is still wrong. Only one (Mildred Harnack) was indisputably "executed by hanging". If the category exists to use the common wording of "execution" for the first of these groups, then we can theoretically keep the title, but the other articles need to be removed...

- Nominator's rationale: Not a good way to categorize scientists. Could be listified. If kept, should be renamed to something like "Scientists whose names are used as non SI units". DexDor (talk) 06:08, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
