Do you consider CS political leaders like Koenig and Partridge POWs? If so, then we should include the other survivors like Goldman on down to the mayor of Atlanta that Morrell arrested. Also the surviving Camp Guards. What do you think? ML4E 03:34, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- I don't think so. I would maybe call them political prisoners? That is a little tricky. However, they weren't arrested till the war ended, so POW is a hard sell. I'd suggest limiting it to those who were captured on the battlefield. Turtle Fan 04:44, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- I was grappling with that. Political prisoners actually would be a workable category, since we also have Molotov and Buckliger who were the victims of attempted coups, plus guys like Goldman as ML4E pointed out who weren't soldiers. TR 05:28, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- I had already added Potter as a POW prior to asking and think he should remain there as the war wasn't technically over yet and he was in uniform. I raised the question because Koenig and Partridge are currently listed as POWs. What of Guards like Pinkard and his guard captain? ML4E 07:04, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- For the guards, since they were prisoners waiting trial, POW doesn't make much sense. We also have a criminals category. Maybe its enough to leave them there, or just leave them in the general prisoners category? TR 07:17, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- I'd say general prisoners pending the creation of something like an International Criminals category. They could hang out with their Nazi counterparts who get mentioned in MwIH. Turtle Fan 12:26, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- I think war criminals get their own prisoner designation. They're not soldiers captured as a routine action of war, but special cases reserved for special treatment. Jelay14 03:46, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
