Talk:Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act

Comment on application
The following was moved here from the article:
 * the RLUIPA only applies to prisoners. This is far from true! RLUIPA has a large affect on any religious institution. For instance if a church moves into an area zoned as commercial or residential the government is not allowed to impose those restrictions against it. That is why it has land use in the title. I enjoy your articles but this one is very insufficient, and in many instances is outright wrong. JAD

I invite the author of this statement to improve the article accordingly. BD2412 T 05:51, 4 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I've removed alot more that was literally "getting too personal". 68.39.174.238 03:38, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

What Does the Law Say ?
It is odd that an article on the "Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act" does not at least quote pertinent passages from the law, or else present a lengthy and scholarly summary of this Act of Congress.

It is patently silly to instantly jump into a description of legal cases concerning the many disagreements about what this Act means -- without first stating what the law says, at least in a summary form.

I suggest that you take a look at the articles on the various Amendments to the Federal Constitution (for example, the 1st, 13th, 14th, and 15th). First and foremost in those articles is a word-for-word quotation of what the Amendment says, and next they delve into the implications of the Amendments, and the court cases that have interpreted the Amendments. This is the logical way to proceed in such articles.98.67.173.16 (talk) 22:32, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

incorrect capitals
I found this as a section heading:
 * Law Review Articles About RLUIPA's Application To Eminent Domain

I changed it to this:
 * Law review articles about RLUIPA's application to eminent domain
 * Law review articles about RLUIPA's application to eminent domain

Most of the section headings in this article made the same mistake. Surprisingly, this persisted while numerous people edited this article over several years. Please notice that WP:MOS does exist, and other Wikipedia articles exist, and most of them follow the standard prescribed in WP:MOS. 174.53.163.119 (talk) 14:33, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
