Reference for court decision[edit]

If you read the section, you will see that the link you keep adding is already at the end. The current formatting does not obstruct reading, and has just as much information. If you disagree with this assessment, please explain your reasoning. --Alynna 20:22, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion[edit]

This page will eventually be in good shape, but I'm just starting with listing some basic provisions. Discrimination law is pretty complicated, sadly. If anyone wants to help out, please go ahead and fill out whatever you know about best. This page will have a summary on the British labour law page. Wik idea 20:44, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Links to specific US laws[edit]

I am aware that US non-discrimination law is important. That is why we need one link to Employment discrimination law in the United States. People who want to read about that can go to that article. We do not need links to every US non-discrimination law in this article, because the individual laws are not directly relevant to an article on the UK. --Alynna (talk) 12:35, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Scare quotes[edit]

Wikidea - You have said in an edit summary that the quotes in 'Fixed term "employees"' are not scare quotes. Could you explain why they are there? --Alynna (talk) 12:40, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

On the productive point, you're probably right that I don't need to list all the statutes in the see also section. But what I will do is be integrating them into the text as I go. I already explained that US law is largely the model for discrimination law worldwide. It's useful. But once I've written things up then, you're right, one link for the US law will be enough. Just be patient.

They are not scare quotes. There's a difference here between a "worker" and an "employee" and with the Fixed Time Employee Regulations (which is based on an EU Directive) there is a question about whether it was implemented properly, and quite a lot of doubt that not giving the rights to all workers is enough. Have a read of the "scope" section in Employment Rights Act 1996. Wik idea 18:32, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that integrating the US law links into the text is the way to go. I look forward to seeing that.

Thank you for explaining the quotes. Would it be possible to explain that distinction in this article? The quotes without an explanation could be confusing to someone not familiar with the topic.

Have you considered using {{underconstruction}} to indicate that the article is in a temporary state? --Alynna (talk) 13:31, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

article picture[edit]

I'm not sure what anti-same-sex-marriage protesters have to do with employment discrimination law. Is there a better picture we could put in the lede? --Alynna (talk) 03:29, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
