Link to curent page: Criminal justice

The article's content is relevant to the topic; however, some areas are overrepresented (ie., Western systems-level descriptions of criminal justice). Similarly, other areas are underrepresented (anything non-Western, or the disproporionate number of marginalized peoples in the system). Since the article is not on the criminal justice system, I think it should include a more broad discussion of justice. Restorative justice and diversion are not included at all. The focus is very historical, but it is not clear how the historical examples were chosen. Pictures do not necessarily fit with the topics discussed.

Perhaps the following subtitles:

Policing

Courts

Corrections

Alternatives to incarceration

Welfare system?

Rehabilitation? Retribution? Restoration?

Look at the Justice page and see if this page can be designed such that it's a subset of the Justice page.

I agree with my colleague above, though I am able to see in this page's talk section that there is a sustained effort to have the page be unbiased. I would recommend that the subtitles listed above would be better suited to a 'see also' section.

I would like to see examples of criminal justice from around the globe, but the talk section also directly addresses this as something that made the page very messy and had to be edited.

In the page it says that the criminal justice system consists of 8 main parts and goes on to list only 3 points, with only 5 examples. This needs an edit and clarification.

Only includes European history in 'history' section, and goes on to discuss 'modern' systems, also only western.

Pictures are not well fitted to topics and the first pic, with the US criminal justice system flowchart should be removed, wiki is global and should not be US centric.
