Old talk[edit]

Some were killed during the initial fighting in the city streets.

Terrorists vs. rebels[edit]

I think that, in order to avoid disputes, that we should call the hostage-takers "separatists" instead of rebels or terrorists Pioneer Media Center 12:29, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You'd take a look at, say, Moscow theater hostage crisis.

I think that we should call the hostage-takers TERRORISTS and in any way differently! Separatists are at war for independence, and terrorists take in hostages of pregnant wemen with children... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.25.138.222 (talk) 19:47, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

With regard to recent edit warring, please follow Wikipedia:Terrorist. It suggest to use factual descriptions such as bomber, gunman, hijacker, hostage-taker, kidnapper and suicide bomber, etc. rather than terrorist, that describe a particular viewpoint but not informative.Biophys (talk) 00:55, 27 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
yes, hostage-taker is an option. However, terrorist suits very well, too. Or Biophys, would you argue that bombers in Iraq or Afghanistan should only be described as rebels? --Miacek (t) 12:33, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, they're called "insurgents" (not only by the media or the Wikipedia, but even by their Western enemies). In Russia of course it's "terrorists and bandits", "criminal underground", "mercenaries", etc. (right now it's "bandits"). --Ostateczny Krach Systemu Korporacji (talk) 13:16, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. Since there was no objections for a week, I fixed this.Biophys (talk) 23:41, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Volunteer hostages indeed[edit]

They offered themselves in the place of the initial hostages. --HanzoHattori 11:30, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

One article I read, very much made the point that the volunteer part was very much so and so Rune X2 07:45, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Budyonnovsk.jpg[edit]

Image:Budyonnovsk.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
