Categories and projects
[edit]For Category:Crimes, note: "This category includes articles on specific types and instances of crime. For articles on crime in general, see Category:Crime. Articles which only allege that a crime has occurred should not be included in these categories (e.g. an article about a person or company that is indicted but whose case is later dismissed). For specific alleged crimes which have not been proven in a court of law, consider using Category:Scandals or a subcategory instead." Thus adding such categories (or related project banners) is misleading. --Soman (talk) 12:14, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

- Soman: So what you are saying it is only a crime if someone is convicted and sentenced? If the Police applied that standard to crime, it wouldn't exist because it wouldn't count as a crime to be investigated until the offender was convicted. That would mean a perpetrator of a crime could never be convicted because police could never investigate. The causality logic is wrong, so I think the category note is wrong. The note should say that where a crime is alleged but there is contrary evidence that it is more probable a crime did not occur then use the suggested alternative categories, especially when charges were dismissed against the alleged offenders and the facts of the case indicate the crime did not occur. e.g. Trumped up charges. I think the category note is confusing and has been misunderstood. - 203.96.84.33 (talk) 05:34, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I understand the argument here. The wording on Category:Crime was taken from that category page, it's not my opinion. The question is misdirected - the dilemma is not regards to laws, but on how to handle categorization scheme in Wikipedia. --Soman (talk) 15:51, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
