Beheaded → Beheaded (disambiguation) – To make room for Beheaded to redirect to Decapitation. The term "beheaded" is according to decapitation "the act of deliberately decapitating a person" eg. murder by decapitation. Thus one might write: "He was murdered by decapitation" or "He was beheaded", meaning the same thing but pithily stated. Since these two terms share the same article at decapitation (both bold in the first sentence) this should redirect to the primary topic. Some might say "beheaded" is old-fashioned, antiquated, flowery, non-clinical, emotional etc.. but this is not accurate. It has a precise and valid meaning and often used in reliable source and society. GreenC 05:38, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Beheading already redirects to decapitation. I'm going to withdraw (no votes) as non-controversial and bold move. -- GreenC 17:39, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
