[edit] revert poorly explained edit -- see talk
Another wikipedian excised an external link with the edit summary -- rv addition of unnecessary link.
I checked out the link they excised. It seemed to be a very useful link, with further links to news articles, showing the timeline of how the press covered the story. I couldn't imagine why the other wikipedian excised it, unless they didn't read past the first couple of paragraphs.
So I restored it.

- They probably read the URL and decided it wasn't NPOV without looking at it first nut-meg 06:15, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

- I reviewed the page, almost none of it is original content but it DOES have a very good compilation of very well cited and documented information on this case. It should never have been deleted. Any link deletions are to be discussed on the talk page first. nut-meg 06:40, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Contradiction with other wiki article
There is an error in reporting in either this or the James Barker article. This article states that Hamza's sister was seven, the other claims she was five. Which is it? Shantron 00:18, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, and the BBC and Guardian articles say she was six. Anchoress 05:32, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Allegedly
Considering that legal proceedings are not over in this case, I think that "who was gang-raped, burned and killed, by American troops." should read "who was gang-raped, burned and killed, allegedly by American troops." Isn't this normal procedure for an ongoing case?
I already made this change once, and someone changed it back without comment. If you are going to remove it again, please explain why. 24.91.126.96 23:41, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- I like how the only doubt in your rephrasing is whether or not it was Americans who killed her. If you're going to dispute the prevailing account of the story, why not dispute the fact that she was raped or burned as well, i.e. move the "allegedly" in front of the "was".
- Myself, I think the burden of proof is established here. --Saforrest 01:50, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

- I believe some of the men have already plead guilty. If this is true, "allegedly" is not appropriate nut-meg 06:12, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

- They've also been sentenced - I believe that a second man confessed in court recently and was convicted. I think that the article should reflect this as it is no longer sub rosa. Darkmind1970 10:35, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This Page
This page really needs a lot of cleanup. I'm not going to have time in the next week or so, but I'll come back to it if nobody else does. nut-meg 06:47, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
