Talk:Prison rape
What's the point of this?[edit]
Seriously, what's the point? The prison rape section on the rape page gives much more information than this page but tells you to see this one for more information. It's like a bad parody of those Conservapedia articles that are exactly the same as sections on other articles.--Spud (talk) 14:25, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

- Does anyone intend to extend the article? If not it doesn't look very useful. Proxima Centauri (talk) 15:13, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

- Please, give it some more time. There is much to say on the topic. /Strom (talk) 15:03, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
- But is it on mission? I don't think so.--Spud (talk) 15:08, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
- If Strom want more time to make it on-mission and important, I see no harm in letting him have it. Reckless Noise Symphony (talk) 15:12, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
- He seems to be actively working on it, so it's not just something that got dropped on here and ignored. Reckless Noise Symphony (talk) 15:13, 10 December 2012 (UTC)

Five months later, does this page have a point now?[edit]
It's been five months now. This page still doesn't give much more information than is on the prison rape section on the rape page and whatever extra information is here could easily fit on that page. This still seems like a completely superfluous article to me. Spud (talk) 04:28, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- If no one else puts the relevant material into the broader rape article, I'll do it myself sometime... err, soonish? I guess that depends on my misanthropy and hatred of this site.--Token Conservative (talk) 04:32, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
Off Mission? Consider vaping?[edit]
I don't see how this article furthers the purpose of RW, ie:
- Analyzing and refuting pseudoscience and the anti-science movement.
- Documenting the full range of crank ideas.
- Explorations of authoritarianism and fundamentalism.
- Analysis and criticism of how these subjects are handled in the media.
Maybe 3. If you squint your eyes from an oblique angle on a really cloudy day. Maybe. --MtDPert yet flexible 18:48, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
- Could be number 4 as well, since the media doesn't cover this kind of stuff very often. I guess. The lack of information in this article is contributing to the problem. 173.60.168.240 (talk) 18:52, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
- Well yairs. But now Proxima has added a (albeit slightly sanctimonious) section on this subject to the Prison article so perhaps that's sufficient, as mentioned in earlier discussions. --MtDPert yet flexible 19:24, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
- I think the addition doesn't have much to do with prison rape as much as a general subject of people in prisons (in 'Murica, that is). It can be connected, though, but otherwise, this article feels redundant, especially since that section is added. 173.60.168.240 (talk) 19:42, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
- Well, yes. The article still sucks, and if off-mission as far as can be. So Proxima added a clumsy as usual link to some badly worded text? Kill this piece of crap with fire, and let rape be our article. This has no point to exist. ħuman
