It would be nice to see this article expanded, even for the sake of more thoroughly covering the US Witness Protection Program. I would like to hear more about the methodology used to hide those enrolled in the program, why people either choose to stay in the program or leave it, more detailed information on how the current program came to be, etc. Robert, 24 November 2005.
[edit] Limited Geographic Scope
How does program of the United States Government, that hides witnesses of the US Justice system, need worldwide perspectives? It's like saying that an article on the US Navy is limited in scope because it doesn't discuss the Chinese navy and Royal Navy? --Wingsandsword 17:40, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
- I agree, there's no good reason for that tag to be there. I say we remove it. Jeff Silvers 11:29, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
- I'm personally not keen on the way a non-US person typing in "Witness Protection" would be redirected here, because they might want an article on what happens in their own country. Unforunatly that article doesn't exist yet. --Christhebull 13:52, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- The UK Anti-social Behaviour Act 2003 apparently makes some provisions for witness protection; I believe this is where this request may have come from - i.e. people would like to know about witness protection programs in other countries.
[edit] Huh?
"Around 17% of protected witnesses will commit another crime, compared to the less than the 40% of parolees who return to crime."
The first half of this sentence makes sense.67.169.63.116 09:11, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
I thouht this was ood too so Im going to go and amend this accordingly --PrincessBrat 16:57, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- After doing some research an checking the artcile which it is sourced from (well done person who did that cos it enabled verification) the statement is exactly true. I will revert it back to how it was. --PrincessBrat 12:08, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WPP in Fiction
Why the extensive lists of media that involve WPP? It isn't that notable, and the article is turning into a list of trivial mentions that have nothing to do with the article's subject (see WP:TRIVIA). If no one objects, I will remove these lists. --Scottie theNerd 08:54, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
