Talk:Civil Unions Act 2006

message: Civil partnerships will commence under the Civil Partnership Act 2008 (ACT) (commences 15/11/2008) -— Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.168.57.62 (talk) 04:18, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Civil partnerships 

message: Since the civil union legislation did not go through, and since there is now new legislation recognising same sex couples, I would like to suggest that this article is renamed as 'Domestic Partnership in the ACT' (Similar to the TAS article) or 'Civil Partnership in the ACT'. It seems like this would be more appropriate and consistent with all the other LGBT pages. Ikzing (talk) 00:33, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This is an article about a specific piece of legislation which was introduced and subsequently overturned. It was a very high-profile battle, and there's more than enough room for a very good article about it. I would not object to a broader article as well; however, there is no such concept as "domestic partnership" here in the ACT, so that particular title doesn't make any sense. Rebecca (talk) 04:04, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: My point was not about the exact title, it was about being able to add more to the page. Perhaps "Recognition of same-sex unions in the ACT" then? This page has been a stub for years, so I don't see any harm in moving all the ACT's multiple battles onto a single page.  Otherwise I will just have to create a new one which will duplicate this information anyway. If this page was chock full of details, I would understand. Ikzing (talk) 04:06, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Ed Green

message: I removed the following section:
:During a case involving a serial mass murderer, Ed Green held up his gun to the perpetrater after he disarmed. Though he kept his finger on the trigger and asked the killer to explain his reasoning, Green ultimately put his gun down so that the killer could be taken in. Afterward, a victim's father killed the mass murderer outside and courtroom, forcing Green to take the man in.
I took this out because it's a synopsis of a single moment in a single episode. It deserves as much weight as any other single moment: none.

message: It's messy to attempt to change the names of pages, so perhaps we can leave this as SS Servia? Earlier ships are often referred to as "SS" anyway, although in this case RMS is equally valid.

message: Since there are Wikipedia entries entitled RMS Servia and SS Servia, then I think these two articles ought to be combined into one article.

Talk:Alburquerque, Spain

Talk:John McKechnie

message: John McKechnie has been one of the greatest Justices to have ever served the Bench of the Honourable Supreme Court of Western Australia....
His Decision in Molina v Zaknich was a powerful Gospel that rembled something of the narrow pass in the Lord of the Rings, where Gandalf shepherded the Hobbits over the narrow bridge, and did battle with the Balrog. 
The Balrog relied on the authority in Pearce v Paskov, where the Honourable Temple of man, and his Honour the all High Lord Justice McKechnie Smited the Narrow Bridge relating to s.22 of the Criminal Code. YOU SHALL NOT PASS!. The Balrog was defeated, the narrow bridge destroyed.
The importance of decisions like this are not to be taken lightly. The courage of a Justice to open up defences, and in turn secure the liberty associated with ancient codes like s.22 of the criminal code (WA) are decisions that should be sealed through the Authority of the High Court, and set for ever more.
A true Justice, one that will be sadly missed from the Bench, when a retirement age is reached. There should be no retirement age for a justice to be imposed, if his mind is still sharp, an ancient sage on the Bench is a necessity. Justice McKechnie, thank you, for showing me the way, through your righteous paths layed down.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.30.61.13 (talk) 08:50, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

Talk:LGBT rights in Tunisia

message: Moneyspender added the following info under "penalties",
  [Up to 3 years in prison], with fines and torture. Vigilante attacks and executions also are common.
But there is no mention of torture as a penalty, just prison. (Fines are to be understood, per our other articles.) And vigilante attacks are irrelevant re. legal penalties, unless the police or govt forces are themselves leading them? 
So, I reverted that as a POV violation. 
As for the list of LGBT right groups that Moneyspender deleted from the lead, I agree there. It's way too much detail, certainly. It might warrant a mention that there are rights groups in the country, but that's almost a given. It's more noteworthy when there aren't. But we can't give a number unless we have a RS that the number is correct.
