The Mann Act

The Misplaced Pages article about the Mann Act has Charles Manson listed as "convicted" under this law. Charles Manson's biography on Misplaced Pages says he was aquitted of this charge. Both authors of these articles cite the same source. To the reader the distinction between the two words is critical to gaining proper insight.

Bindy Johal edits

Uncited material has been added to this page, plus a reformatting of the list of charges......the claim that he committed the most crimes in Canada is definitely in need of citation, if it's true. This page and other Vancouver gang-related articles seem to have a lot of IP edits.....hoping members of this group place this and related articles on their watchlist; not an article I like messing with "because of who it is".Skookum1 (talk) 07:44, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Categories for prostitution

There is a discussion going on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Feminism#Help_cleaning_up_Category:Prostitutes which could use input from this project - specifically on a few questions around categorization:

1. Is there a general rule as to what *sort* of categories can/should be created to classify those who have committed crimes?

More specifically:

1. What are your thoughts on creating a category for Category:People convicted for prostitution
2. What are your thoughts on creating a category for Category:People convicted for solicitation

"Missing persons" category

When a missing persons case is resolved, does that make categories such as Category:Missing person cases in the United States no longer applicable? My take is the case is a missing persons case, even after resolution and the person is no longer missing. A robbery remains a robbery even after the perpetrator is caught and restitution made, by comparison.

I noticed a couple of removals today of this cat (, ), and while I don't think the removal is appropriate, I'm unsure and unable to find if there's a consensus in the crime community on this; hence the question. TJRC (talk)

Input required at Talk:Alger Hiss

A couple of editors have been edit warring over some specific wording in the lead of Alger Hiss. For the most part it appears the content dispute relates to the reliability of and weight to be given to specific sources. The editors are now trying to craft an RFC to address the content dispute in a rational manner. Input from interested parties in this project would be useful. --Mike Cline (talk) 15:05, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
