Portal talk:Guantanamo

Why?
Why are you using for all these pages instead of  ? --Metal.lunchbox 05:59, 10 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Because I am a newbie, I asked for advice on the Scriptorium, and someone suggested I do so.

 * header is really menat for the Main namespace and this is Wikisource: --Birgitte SB  17:25, 10 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I am going to need a little bit more detailed explanation. Are you saying all of the documents I placed should use the {{tl|header} instead?  Where is its use documented?


 * Cheers! Geo Swan 19:40, 10 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes. I misunderstood the orignal question.  The page that this talk page belongs to should us the process header and the pages of actual documents should use header.--Birgitte SB  19:53, 10 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Next time I'll try to make my question a little more clear and helpful. --Metal.lunchbox 03:00, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Is "Habeas Corpus" documents the best descriptor? Would "Constitutional challenges" be accurate? "Legal actions", something like that? They all seem to be X vs. Y cases. Sherurcij Collaboration of the Weekhave you done your part? 04:06, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

any special reason detainees don't get topic pages?
someone deleted my Omar Khadr page, saying it was redundant. It actually gathered a fair amount of material that was not on the author page, and he is notable not as an author but as a topic. For those who need this spelled out, he would be notable as an example of the Canadian government refusing to protect its citizens (see also: Maher Arar), as an example of a combatant who arguably should have been treated as a child soldier, and as an example of habeas problems at Guantanamo. I am not going to re-create the page if it's just going to get re-deleted, but if there is a policy explaining why we are putting legal documents *about* him on an *AUTHOR* page I would like to read it. Thanks.
