Another innocent country boy picked up by evil Amerika and falsely imprisoned in the Guantanamo death star. Yes. I like the touch about the hip-hop music. Kevinp2 05:32, 3 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Labeling the CCR as a left-wing group, without providing a verifiable, authoritztive source does not comply with WP:NPOV. Please try to comply with the WP:NPOV.

Bot report : Found duplicate references !

edit

In the last revision I edited, I found duplicate named references, i.e. references sharing the same name, but not having the same content. Please check them, as I am not able to fix them automatically :)

  • "Csm061006" :
    • Khan's appeal points out that even though he has been in US custody for more than three and a half years, he has never had any kind of review of the legality of his detention.<ref name=Csm061006> [http://www.csmonitor.com/2006/1006/p01s03-uspo.html New lawsuits challenge Congress's detainee act], ''[[Christian Science Monitor]]'', [[October 6]] [[2006]]

Anonymous edits from Guantanamo...

edit

An edit here was made by a DoD IP address, User:130.22.190.5: [1]. An adjacent IP address, User:130.22.190.10 just said he was a current Guantanamo guard, so I believe these edits were also made by someone at Guantanamo.

I am to ask, generally, for good faith editors from the DoD to identify themselves as such.

The location of that user is confirmed at User talk:130.22.190.5. Supertouch (talk) 12:44, 21 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

explanation

edit

Another contributor excised an image from this article, with the edit summary "remove copyrighted pic, just because we haven't found one yet is no excuse to use someone else's work". The families of various Guantanamo captives have done what they could to draw the public's attention to the cases of those captives, including distributing photos of those captives. Majid Khan's family have done what they could on his behalf. His father submitted an affidavit. They were barred from attending his hearings, because they weren't yet US citizens. They are refugees, who have been legal residents of the USA for the last fifteen years or so. They were warned that if they traveled to Guantanamo they would probably not be readmitted to the USA.

A suggestion that Khan's family want distribution of this image restricted, in order to make a profit, strikes me as far-fetched.

I am going to request a discussion of this image at the fair use discussion forum. I request the exciser leave the image and participate in that discussion. Geo Swan (talk) 02:29, 13 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

This discussion is underway at WP:NFCR#File:Family photo of Majid Khan, in 1999.jpg. Input from editors familiar with this situation would be appreciated. VernoWhitney (talk) 03:58, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Any update on this one?

edit

Most of the details in this article are from over 10 years ago; on a cursory look, the most recent update about him seems to be from 2014. Has nothing happened in his case since then? Robofish (talk) 00:25, 26 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Yes, and anybody can edit the article to reflect the latest info. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 04:35, 30 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
