Good article status?

[edit]

Romans, friends and countrymen,

What do you think? Does this article qualify for good article status? I think what we should do is to add actual references to the valid points of law. At present, the article is factually correct but does not cite anything. We should thus add the references. After that, I think we should be able to get this article a good or favoured article status. --MPorciusCato 12:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Amakuru, this is exactly where the trouble comes in. Take a look at some of the articles you brought up. Look, for example, at this one, the first in the list. It says "Barrister and part-time judge Constance Briscoe, who was jailed for 16 months for lying to police, has been removed from the judiciary". In Commonwealth usage, "judiciary" usually refers to the body of judges, not to the judicial system. In this particular case, for example, that's what's meant. "Removed from the judiciary" means that the judge was stripped of her post as a judge. This usage does not really exist in American English, which is why it is somewhat of an ENGVAR issue, and also why said ambiguity exists. RGloucester 14:52, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. A judiciary is a body of judges or the courts they operate, not an entire justice system; at least in American legal circles, the term "judiciary" would never include attorneys, prosecutors, or corrections officials. The current title is correct. Rebbing 04:55, 4 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
