Catalan political prisoners

An agreement had already been reached as to their status, and that was even before the recent developments in Germany and Scotland. Nevertheless, certain users with Spanish sounding-handles or Spanish IPs insist on trying to remove their names surreptitiously. Why? Are those Misplaced Pages users as cowardly as those who govern them? I feel pity for you chaps. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.167.169.240 (talk) 15:54, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

I have approved your edit as it appears that the inclusion of these people is warranted by consensus above. That said, please do not insult other editors as it is against policy and may result in a block. (Also, please remember to sign your posts with four tildes ). tubedogg (talk) 16:07, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

It is not us, the editors, who have to determine what their status is. Amnesty International issued an official statement considering the charge of sedition and the preventive imprisonment "excessive" but made it clear that does not consider them political prisoners. --BallenaBlanca 🐳 ♂ (Talk) 18:32, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Added back the names that had been censored edited out in good faith. This has been discussed at length above. You may not agree with the consensus reached by other editors, in that case please try to persuade them to change their minds but do not edit stuff single-handed just because you think you know better.

I guess that's a reasonable enough source to settle this matter?

Under notable groups of Political Prisoners, I believe it should include the Cuban political prisoners known as Plantados (https://en.wikipedia.org/Plantado), these individuals endured punishments and inhumane conditions for as long as 30 years. 2601:58A:8280:56A0:5998:9116:A1FC:38E9 (talk) 14:06, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Category for political prisoners recreated, challenged

Please see Misplaced Pages:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2021_June_29#Category:Political_prisoners _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:12, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

By the weight of argument from Misplaced Pages policies, that discussion was closed as: Convert to container category by designating organization.

Here is a list of the present contents of Category:Political prisoners, for consideration as to whether to list more of these entries at Political_prisoner#Notable_political_prisoners or in more specific articles. – Fayenatic London 11:18, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

For the record, I have challenged that close, as my reading of that discussion is 'no consensus' which should default to keep. See Misplaced Pages:Deletion_review/Log/2021_August_4#2021_June_29. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:41, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
