[edit] gender based crimes

'gender based crimes' - does this mean rape? Or is it a euphenism?

I can't seem to find mention of it in any of the linked articles. I assume it refers to sexual violence, but that seems to be an odd thing to go through gacaca if it's not Genocide related. Maybe it should be removed? - BanyanTree 19:44, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

Merging Inyangamugayo would avoid forks. It will probably remain a stub forever else. If it grows too big, we can always split it up again. Any objections? Lapaz 13:41, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Merged. NYScholar 00:05, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pointless scare quotes

There's a pair of pointless scare quotes around the word "mission". Suggest these be replaced with "stated mission", without the quotes. As it stands, the article could be read as mocking the stated formal objectives of the system. (This is without commenting on the section's appearance of having been yanked from a descriptive leaflet or some such.) 88.112.3.21 14:37, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Capitalization

Is there a good reason Gacaca is capitalized? Through most of the article it is. "Court" is capitalized through much of the article. Some of the links capitalized Gacaca, but some don't. My instinct is that it shouldn't be capitalized, but I defer to any experts in gacaca and English usage. ConDissenter (talk) 13:52, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
