[edit] Victim retribution

Victim retribution (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This is mainly a dictionary definition, I think. It's hard to tell because I'm not quite sure what it's saying. AFAIK, it's not an official legal phrase. Google shows only about 83 results for the phrase. If the article is about the victim getting some kind of compensation then I think it should be deleted, renamed, and rewritten in a more systematic way. Contested speedy (A1). ... discospinster _talk 12:16, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. We could possibly recreate a more comprehensible version and maybe under a different name. I'm not exactly sure what the article is saying. Victim's compensation exists, usually through government subsidization, and several articles exist on wikipedia about specific agencies for compensation, but victim retribution? Wouldn't that also cover punishments such as jail and community service (if it is the proper name for it)? --Strangerer (Talk | Contribs) 13:49, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

• Delete without prejudice - I think the subject is potentially an encyclopedic cultural phenomena, but the article in its current state is not salvageable. Tarinth 16:07, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
