Adding Russia to the List of designated terrorist groups
Hi, I am new to wiki editing, even more to discussing edits, so please let me know if this is a wrong place. Recently I made the following change: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_designated_terrorist_groups&oldid=1090706295
And you reverted it and pointed out that Russia is not a group.
However, I want to challenge you on this a bit:
- first of all, the section of the page that I edited is titled "Organizations currently officially designated as terrorist by various governments"
- According to wiki:
- organization is an entity—such as a company, an institution, or an association—comprising one or more people and having a particular purpose.
- A country is a distinct territorial body, a state, nation, or other political entity.
- A state is a centralized political organization
- So it seems like a country falls under the definition of organization, thus I suggest to add Russia to that wiki page, as designated by Lithuania.
What do you think? Your help is appreciated.

- Hi @Chloe.dublin, let me clarify: this list article is about organisations that have been formally designated as terrorists. An organisation – on Wikipedia, but also in common usage – is distinct from country or state, at least in the meaning accepted on English Wikipedia. Arguing otherwise is quite a stretch. Additionally, in this case, this was a parliamentary resolution while as you might know, parliamentary resolutions are not acts of law and have no bearing on the laws. — kashmīrī TALK 00:36, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
