The citation for the article's statement "'''As an academic discipline, corrections also goes by the older name of penology'''" states "Earlier scholars were more honest, calling what we now call ''corrections'' by the name ''penology'', which means the study of punishment for crime." In the context of the entire "What is corrections" section, the author considers the term ''corrections'' to be an inaccurate euphemism, and does not denigrate penology as an "older name". As such, the citation is not a valid one and has been removed. --[[User:JeffJ|JeffJ]] ([[User talk:JeffJ|talk]]) 19:40, 20 October 2011 (UTC) |

If anyone's interested, I've proposed a new wikiproject for the creation of articles regarding specific prisons here. --Cdogsimmons (talk) 01:42, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
Positive sanctions?
Is this some legal theory terminology? I've never heard of "sanctions, which can be positive (rewarding)". Have mörser, will travel (talk) 02:00, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

You have violated the WP:PROD policy
You are not allowed to reinstate a {{prod}} template once it has been removed in good faith: "If any person (even the author him/herself) objects to the deletion (usually by removing the {{proposed deletion}} tag), the proposal is aborted and may not be re-proposed." Your first addition [1]. Your reinstatement. [2] Please revert yourself. Have mörser, will travel (talk) 20:03, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
- I did indeed violate WP:PROD, in good faith, however you failed to:
To object to and therefore permanently prevent a proposed deletion, remove the proposed deletion tag from the article. You are encouraged, but not required, to also:
- Explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion, either in the edit summary or on the talk page.
- Consider notifying the editors involved in the PROD by placing a Deprod tag on their user talk page.
- Add or modify an Old prod full tag on the article's talk page, to prevent renomination under Proposed deletion. It will then be listed at Category:Past proposed deletion candidates for easy tracking.
- Consider improving the article to address the concerns raised.
You are not required to follow these steps, but in the interest of good faith editing and general courtesy I don't think it's unreasonable to ask that you offer your rationale as to why this article should not be deleted.--JeffJ (talk) 20:56, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
Citation regarding terminology
The citation for the article's statement "As an academic discipline, corrections also goes by the older name of penology" states "Earlier scholars were more honest, calling what we now call corrections by the name penology, which means the study of punishment for crime." In the context of the entire "What is corrections" section, the author considers the term corrections to be an inaccurate euphemism, and does not denigrate penology as an "older name". As such, the citation is not a valid one and has been removed. --JeffJ (talk) 19:40, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
