Issues to be mediated

Primary issues
  • The term "summary execution" has been repeatedly used to refer to the killing of two British soldiers by the Provisional IRA in 1988. I regard this as POV, as an execution is generally accepted to be a judicially sanctioned killing carried out by a state or authorised body as punishment for a crime. The vast majority of sources describing this particular incident use the terms "murder" or "killing," with only a very few using "summary execution." I am concerned that the use of this term gives an impression of legitimacy by implying that the two men were legally killed as punishment for a crime, rather than simply for being who they were, and therefore violates WP:NPOV.
