Talk:Felo de se

Nomination for Deletion
I don't want to step on anyone's toes here, but I think perhaps this article ought to be deleted. The article primarily defines a term, so perhaps Wiktionary is a better place for it http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/felo_de_se. If no one objects in the next few days, I will propose that the article be deleted. Thank you. ajpruns (talk) 05:08, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

The offence to which the term refers (the felony of suicide) is plainly notable. James500 (talk) 01:49, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Understandable, or not...
"Such judgment and penalties had taken in any deceased, lawfully killed for self-defence or defence of another, committing a felony."

What does that sentence, which is quoted from the page today, actually MEAN ??? Autokefal Dialytiker (talk) 23:54, 6 April 2021 (UTC)


 * I came here wondering the same thing. While it might just be possible to come up with uncommon interpretations of that sentence as technically grammatically correct in some contrived sense, any such rationalisations would really be giving the English language the Abu Ghraib treatment. The semi-literate sentence you quoted was added here, as part of an edit otherwise chiefly concerned with making the article more PC, in the wake of a minor edit war over whether the singular they was PC enough. That's probably why this nonsense has not been swiftly reverted. Most people don't want to risk being perceived as opposing the correct point of view, because they understand there is a cost to being so suspected – and anyone reading this and thinking, "Aha! You're one of them!" is thereby proving my point. —ReadOnlyAccount (talk) 19:28, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
