Talk:Moore v. City of East Cleveland

Did major rewrite
I just went through this and cleaned it up. there is probably a little that I missed, so it's far from perfect, but read much better and has some more background. I'm just a law student, but I tried to make it more readable for the average layperson. thanks.Thebt (talk) 05:27, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Needs major rewrite
I tagged this article with Copypaste and Inappropriate tone because, in its apparent verbatim copying of a large portion of Moore v. City of East Cleveland, Ohio: Appeal from the Court of Appeals of Ohio, Cuyahoga County from the Constitution Society's website, it reads like a legal brief, not an encyclopedia article. Even if the writing style were appropriate for general readers, it's not clear to me that this copy is legal. The Society's home page says all its pages are "are Copyright © 1994-2005 Constitution Society" unless otherwise stated, and I didn't see any statement otherwise on the cited page itself. I'm not familiar enough with court documentation to know whether it's obvious to a lawyer whether this is something published by the U.S. Supreme Court, which would be public domain, or if it's a summary written by a private individual, which would mean it's a copyvio based on the Society's notice. In any case, it needs to be rewritten for a general audience. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 01:34, 14 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm not a lawyer but I understood it reasonably well. The language is precise but isn't littered with excessive law jargon. Though some details could be removed. Angry bee (talk) 07:47, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

Removal of Copy to Wikisource
Wikisource is interested in complete works, not excerpts from works (see {{WS:IO]]), accordingly, the tag has been removed from the page. billinghurst ''{{#if: }}'' 04:34, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Time for an overhaul
It appears that large portions of this article have been copied verbatim from the syllabus. I am in the process of re-writing this article, but please feel free to lend a helping hand if you think it can be improved. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 16:13, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
