Talk:Ratification

message: Ratification is the act of making something valid by confirming it; for example, international threaties are often confirmed by vote from national parliaments or other national institutions.
(-> I suggest that the text about the project of a constitution for the European Union is moved to another article, probably about European Union)
The lengthy discussion of modern US ratification issues, particularly surrounding the Law of the Sea, seems to belong more in an opinion piece or a law review article than in an encyclopedia entry. The multiple citations to the writings of a single individual, even if an expert, suggest that someone is advancing a specific point of view. I claim no special expertise in the topic of US Senate treaty ratifications, but strictly from the viewpoint of form, I would argue that the discussion of this Law of the Sea example should be shortened or deleted entirely.

message: The sentence in reference needs to be ratified. You know the one.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.8.36 (talk) 05:45, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: SENTENCE NEEDS TO BE FINISHED!

message: This article is extremely ambiguous - it talks about "the Convention and its resulting constitution", "the text", and "the treaty", without giving any indication of what might be meant.
I suppose this is intended to be part of another article?
It certainly doesn't seem to talk about ratification in general.

thread_title:  What is this article talking about? 

message: I've updated this section now to take account of the fact that the European Constitution wasn't ratified. It needs to be watched, though, just in case the constitution is revived. Daduzi 22:43, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

message: The UN seems to differentiate between ratification, acceptance, approval, and accession; yet it treats them all as ratification.  Could someone please add a section explaining the difference between these?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.15.164.116 (talk) 03:13, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  ratification, acceptance, approval, and accession 

message: What does the -so we think- mean on this sentence in the article? 
The application of the treaty or legislation is not possible until it has been ratified, so we think.  In addition to the suggestion above, I note in a UN document the term succession which could also be explained as well as ratification and accession.  Ray3055 (talk) 19:41, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: So we think??

message: Apparently ratification is not completed (at least for the UK ratification of EU treaties?) until the instruments of ratification are deposited in Rome by the British government - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7465665.stm . 18:55, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Can we get a generalized definition of the term added to the article? That's half of what I came to look for. MrZaiustalk 08:01, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Instruments of ratification

message: Is there a line to be drawn between signature and ratification of an international treaty in the Holy See or historically in countries ruled by absolute monarchs? I see several sources that mention treaty ratification by the Holy See, but does that mean more than "the Pope signed and an instrument of ratification, made a paper airplane out of it, and threw it out the window to a waiting courier?"
