Death in Iraq under Saddam Hussein

Unencyclopedic and fundamentally POV-forking article, which opens by stating that Hussein's personal responsibility for atrocities has yet to be determined and may never be, and yet then goes on to ascribe these various atrocities to him anyway. wikipediatrix 03:58, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - but I disagree with the nom. This isn't a POV fork since it doesn't really differ from the info in Saddam Hussein. Which is exactly where the info belongs. My Alt Account 04:14, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Saddam Hussein article at least makes a stab at impartiality - this article doesn't. It seems to presume Hussein's guilt for the atrocities he is currently still on trial for. (Not that I'm defending him, mind you!) Hence my calling it a POV fork. wikipediatrix 04:26, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
