Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/20070518041615/http://www.infid.org:80/newinfid/newsdet.php?pci=612 to http://www.infid.org/newinfid/newsdet.php?pci=612

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Decapitation photos removed

Removed decapitation photos, and added link to Wikipedia decapitation page. The article is about an ethnic conflict, not about decapitation. If the reader wants more details on decapitation, then the Wikipedia link can be followed. On that page, however, they will find that all decapitation photos have been removed (the discussion is archived on that Talk page. Summary of rationale for removal: "the inclusion of this image detracts from the article by adding an unnecessary shock value. Its inclusion will offend some, but its exclusion will offend none" ). It should be clear that since decapitation photos have been deemed inappropriate for the decapitation page, they are certainly inappropriate for a page that is NOT about decapitation. --Zahzuhzaz (talk) 14:11, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
