Can you explain the difference between "scientific" and "forensic" for me? I don't understand why you've changed it. --Rodhullandemu (talk - contribs) 16:00, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

"Forensic" means "to do with the courts". "Scientific" has its usual meaning. Forensic science is science in the service of the courts. In one sense, all evidence, scientific or not, is "forensic evidence". Ironman1104 12:01, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

I understand this; I see your point and don't see much to be gained in arguing over it, however; but as a criminologist by qualification and research, we do usually talk about "forensic evidence" when we mean "scientific evidence". Just laxity of language, I suppose --Rodhullandemu (talk - contribs) 12:41, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Links to the name Pierre

I can give 20ish references to the name Pierre from the Da Vinci Code synopsis! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.209.3.142 (talk) 11:45, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

So what? Ironman1104 (talk) 12:03, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Exactly, you know nothing but judge anyway and call it speculation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.209.3.142 (talk) 06:02, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ken Macdonald

Spent or not the conviction has been widely reported in recent years, and was one of the major issues brought up when he was appointed. As someone working the legal system, he's probably in an exempt profession anyway, so I still think it is not unreasonable to mention the matter in the article. I think we need wider input on this, so I'll take the issue to Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard. David Underdown (talk) 11:44, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Robert Carnwath

I noticed that you moved Robert Carnwath to Robert Carnwath (judge) and I was minded to move it back. There's not usually any need to disambiguate when there is only one Robert Carnwath. Don't want to start a WP:Edit war so please comment.Cutler (talk) 00:05, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Saw it as description rather than disambiguation, but feel free.Ironman1104 (talk) 16:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
