Move request※

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the debate was PAGE MOVED per request. -GTBacchus 23:47, 6 November 2006 (UTC)※

Requested move※

Passing off (legal term) → Passing off — Put article back where it came from. Article was moved. Because someone thought that it needed to make way for a disambig page. It later turned out that the other terms were not 'Passing off' but 'Passing', so if the current disambig page was cleaned strictly according to MoS:DP, it would meet WP:SPEEDY.

Abstain: This is one of those many occasions where the move should just be done. No need for a vote. Paul Beardsell 03:58, 5 November 2006 (UTC)※

Discussion※

Add any additional comments: I agree with Paul. But was uncertain whether there might be any controversy. I would otherwise have put it into 'uncontroversial moves'. I believe that we can declare consensus. --AliceJMarkham 05:33, 5 November 2006 (UTC)※

Worldwide view※

"The examples and perspective in this article discusses law in the United Kingdom may not represent a worldwide view of the subject. (February 2014)"

Two comments: 1) Although the article references UK law, the bulk of the discussion covers common law in general. And reference is also made to other jurisdictions (NZ, Australia)

2) A high proportion of the legal articles in XIV cover their subject almost exclusively from the basis of US law; but are not given this marking.

Would whoever anonymously made the marking care to justify it? 146.198.220.104 (talk) 12:40, 10 September 2015 (UTC)※
