thread_title:  External links modified 

message: At one point this article declares "Three of the officers remain on duty elsewhere in Canada..." while further down it notes "On October 30, 2017, The Canadian Supreme Court dismissed the appeals and affirmed the sentences of both Kwesi Millington and Benjamin Robinson who were convicted of perjury. Millington was sentenced to 30 months and Robinson to 2 years."
It is unlikely that both are true. I assume the first is out of date, but can anyone clarify this for sure?

replies: text: Robert Dziekański Taser incident →  – "Taser incident" is an absurd title that I won't even pretend is worth discussing. The chief coroner ruled his death a homicide, though no murder charges were ever laid. Therefore "Killing of" seems like the best option, as "Tasing of" seems to imply Dziekanski was not killed by the tasers, which he was. SomerIsland (talk) 23:12, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: "Killing" does not imply premeditated intent, "Murder" does though, which is why I suggested we avoid that word. "Death of" is almost as bad a title as the current one, and it makes this sound like he just randomly had a heart attack. The cops knew that their actions could very well lead to his death, and they did so anyways. That is enough to call this a "Killing". SomerIsland (talk) 20:32, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, several dictionaries say that "killing" (used as a noun like this) implies intentional killing. Four examples are MacMillan (American): ; Oxford Advanced American Dictionary: ; Cambridge: ; and Collins: . — BarrelProof (talk) 02:42, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

text: I saw that RfC when I was looking into this, and its what primarily informed my proposal of "Killing of". To me and I think most people on that talk page, "Death of" conveys natural causes, and is not usually applied to homicide, which this was. Truthfully this is a subjective issue, but "Death of" does a lot to absolve the police of responsibility in this killing. SomerIsland (talk) 06:44, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
