Talk:Comparative law and justice/Russia
Add topicMid-Semester Comments:
You've gotten off to a good start! Of course, there's much more to do, and that's the point of these comments; they are designed to help you improve what you've done so far and thus ensure that the final product is great.
You do want to refine your writing a little. It's better to write in complete sentences; if you don't feel sentences are right for the content you are covering, then you might want to use either a bullet list or tables. a table would be particularly useful for the basic demographic info you have at the beginning of the page. You should also be sure to caption your images.
I notice you are using some pretty random sites as sources. Sometimes random googling is the only way to find a key piece of information that's missing. However, for the most part you would be better off if you used the recommended sources you can find on the Wiki assignment handout. They tend to have better, more reliable, and more complete data available than whatever random page on the Internet.
Your page is missing the history section, so you do want to go back and fill that in. You are also missing a discussion of the family of law to which Russia belongs and a mention of whether they have adversarial or inquisitorial trials.
Your sections on elections, on crime, and on judicial review are plagiarized. You need to address this immediately.
Furthermore, your section on elections does not include information on who is eligible to vote, and it does not utilize the terms for election types and practices that we discussed in class. Given the extent of plagiarism on your wiki, I cannot give you further comments until the plagiarism is addressed.
