Article should be split with list of current detainees

edit

Article has a wealth of good information, but there should be a separate article for prisoners currently held in the prison. The New York Times maintains a list here.

Created a list here: List of current detainees at Guantanamo Bay. Please help improve it. Desertambition (talk) 00:14, 19 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Detainees missing from list

edit

The following two people seem to be missing from the list:

  • Ismail Ali Faraj Ali Bakush, aka Abu al-Dhahab al-Khamsi, from Libya, captured in 2002 (I.S.N. #708)[1]
  • Said bin Brahim bin Umran Bakush, aka Abdel Razak Ali Abdelrahman or Abu Usama al-Jazairi, from Algeria, captured in 2002, transferred to Algeria in 2023.[2]

what does "country" mean in this case

edit

In the tables there's a section for "country". Is the country of birth, where they were captured, or their country of residence? Gaismagorm (talk) 15:54, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

BLP problems

edit

Is it just me, or is this list just one big WP:BLP nightmare? It's listing by names a lot of unnotable individuals who are effectively being accused of wrongdoing by a government, many of which have not been formally charged much less convicted, no? Naming the non-blue-linked detainees seems to violate at least the spirit and possibly the word of WP:BLPCRIME. This list should be reduced to the blue links. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 13:34, 20 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
