About Category:Terrorism and related categories
The scope of this category includes pages whose subjects relate to terrorism, a contentious label. Value-laden labels—such as calling an organization and/or individual a terrorist—may express contentious opinion and are best avoided unless widely used by reliable sources to describe the subject, in which case use in-text attribution. Avoid myth in its informal sense, and establish the scholarly context for any formal use of the term. |
Pages in this category should be moved to subcategories where applicable. This category may require frequent maintenance to avoid becoming too large. It should directly contain very few, if any, pages and should mainly contain subcategories. |
For articles about particular acts of terrorism, see Category:Terrorist incidents and its subcategories.
For members of groups that may be considered terrorist organizations, see some of the categories within Category:Members of criminal organizations and its parent Category:Members of organizations.
