Judicial independence[edit]

What do outside observers say about the independence of China's judiciary? In this radio program, one environmental activist claims that a judge in one of her cases was under strong pressure from the local government. This article implies that this does not happen. -- Beland (talk) 23:02, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]


THIS ARTICLE NEEDS SERIOUS REVISION

In it's current form, it is cut-and-pasted from the uncritical, state-run china.org.cn

If anyone has read academic sources on the topic such as Randall Peerenboom's books from Cambridge University Press, please contribute to this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spieragastini (talk • contribs) 17:10, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Page needs work indeed[edit]

This is certainly among the longest article I have found on Wikipedia that cites no references. Moreover, it would appear that the lede is largely plagiarized from Chinese government websites[1] (unless this is a weird feedback loop, which I doubt). I am going to clean some of that up, and in the coming days will aim to propose a reorganization of the page. Any suggestions on sources or other aspects of this project would be greatly appreciated (I will slack off if left alone).Homunculus (duihua) 06:21, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merging Court system of the People's Republic of China with this article.[edit]

Proposal: Court system of the People's Republic of China should be merged into this article, as the content of the articles is similar, and also this is a more suitable title. — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 13:30, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm all for it. Many of these top-importance Chinese law articles need a great deal of work, and (at a most pragmatic level), such a merge can help reduce the workload a bit. Also agree that this title is more appropriate, as it encompasses the court system but can also be understood a bit more broadly.. Homunculus (duihua) 15:04, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done! -- Beland (talk) 00:04, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I noticed the plagiarism problem as well, fixed the lede and planned on fixing the rest, but wasn't bold enough to just delete all the copied material. I'll try to re-prioritize this page.Homunculus (duihua) 14:54, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There's a certain wretched irony in the fact that there are hundreds of scholars of the Chinese judicial system (Westerners, proficient in the English language) who are busy publishing obscure treatises in select journals about arcane aspects of their field of study, but who never took the time to see to it that one of the most widely consulted sources on the topic, by non-specialists at least, was in any way useful to the world. Such are the incentives of the modern academy. The Sound and the Fury (talk) 22:44, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm afraid that the rest of the body seems to have been copied from this source. Wayback confirms that they have had it since 2005 ([2]). I can't find any sign that this was already present on Wikipedia at that time, say in another article. :/ --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:34, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch! (unless it was actually original Wikipedia content recycled by the other site). Either way delete. The Sound and the Fury (talk) 15:21, 24 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Judicial system of China → Judiciary of China – Standardizing the names of articles in Category:Judiciaries to the most common one. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:45, 26 April 2016 (UTC) relisted --Mike Cline (talk) 14:09, 4 May 2016 (UTC) [reply]

  • Oppose ambiguous naming wikt:judiciary means the body of judges. While "judicial system" clearly refers to the judicial system and not the body of judges -- 70.51.46.195 (talk) 11:58, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: its actually a rather logical move. "Judiciary" means the entire system, not just judges. Its more succinct and can be made uniform across other nation's judiciary pages. DaltonCastle (talk) 23:12, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Tend to oppose As the two interpretations above suggest, "judiciary" is a bit ambiguous, and may refer to either the body of judges or to the whole judicial system. Furthermore, within China there are three judiciaries, as there are several in the United States‎, the United Kingdom‎ and possibly other countries. "Judicial system" is a more generic WP:TOPICCAT, so it can better accommodate these issues. --PanchoS (talk) 14:50, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
