"Symbolism of terrorism" article

The article Symbolism of terrorism needs a lot of work - the structure is confusing and arbitrary, and most of the content is simply two separate summaries of single sources. Those sources focus almost exclusively on Islamic terrorism. The "Symbolism of target choice" section looks alright, but everything else ranges from odd and confusing to problematic. remainsuncertain (talk) 18:50, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Merging into WP:CRIMEPROJ as a task force

WP:TERRORISM is almost entirely inactive, while WikiProject Crime is decently active. The scope of this project also falls entirely under the scope of WikiProject Crime's - i.e. there are no articles tagged with this project that cannot also be tagged with the Crime project. For centralization of discussion, it would be for the best if the resources and work of the people interested are pooled together since there is so much overlap.

Since Terrorism-related articles have unique concerns, it's best that it be maintained as a task force. All the assessments and project tags can be maintained as part of the Crime banner, just shifted to a task force parameter. The Organized crime project also got merged into the Crime project as a task force, and that has worked fine, everything kept its assessments.

Thoughts? PARAKANYAA (talk) 21:20, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Support: As an editor who has been assessing articles for this WikiProject for several years, now, I have frequently added a crime banner to a "Terrorism" article in the course of assessing it, because the article describes crimes, or the perpetrators are prosecuted for criminal offences. On rare occasions, I have encountered article that I did not also tag as being crime-related, but they mainly dealt with counter-terrorism and fell under "Law enforcement, or "military activity", instead. However, counter-terrorism could be considered a form of crime prevention activity, so it inclusion in WikiProject Crime and Criminal Biography is reasonably understandable. From a crime classification perspective, terrorist acts are basically counted as another type of crime. The UNODC's International Classification of Crime for Statistical Purposes (ICCS) has several classification categories dedicated to terrorism related crime along-side offences relating to national security. Also, deaths as a result of terrorist acts are inclusion criteria for Intentional homicides (0101). So there is a clear rationale for considering terrorism to be a crime. I also like the idea of making Terrorism a separate task force. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 02:13, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
