List of Laws of Jersey (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

This could never be complete. I mean, in theory, a list of all laws is possible, but it's not realistic. Suggest deleting and recreating the way the other "Law of ..." articles are made, namely, focusing on the history of the legal system, not a list of all laws in existence.

• Keep but move to the "Law of..." page and do the history of the legal system, like Ricky said. flaminglawyer^c 02:00, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The "Law of Jersey" page redirects here. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:45, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. You have stated in your nomination that this list should be recreated in a similar style to other "Law of ..." articles. However, other lists of this nature exist for different jurisdictions, such as List of Acts of Parliament of the United Kingdom Parliament, 2000-Present and List of United States federal legislation. Is it the principle of having a list that bothers you, or just the way it is implemented? Road Wizard (talk) 02:06, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I guess it's implementation. I'll withdraw my nomination. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:45, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Perfect suitable list. It can perfectly well be complete and accurate and uptodate, and in practice , not just theory. There are utterly reliable public sources for what they are. Perfectly realistic goal. lawyers have been doing it for much larger bodies of statutes for millenia. DGG (talk) 07:59, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
