- Oppose ambiguous naming wikt:judiciary means the body of judges. While "judicial system" clearly refers to the judicial system and not the body of judges -- 70.51.46.195 (talk) 12:04, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
- Support: its actually a rather logical move. "Judiciary" means the entire system, not just judges. Its more succinct and can be made uniform across other nation's judiciary pages. DaltonCastle (talk) 23:08, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose as ambiguous, and as an attempt to force American English usage of the word "judiciary" onto the relevant articles. RGloucester — ☎ 15:45, 26 May 2016 (UTC)
- Support. It is not ambiguous, this is simply a more WP:CONCISE and WP:CONSISTENT (with other countries) way of saying the same thing. And where's the evidence that "judiciary" is an American term? The BBC uses it often enough.[1] Thanks — Amakuru (talk) 09:32, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
- Amakuru, this is exactly where the trouble comes in. Take a look at some of the articles you brought up. Look, for example, at this one, the first in the list. It says "Barrister and part-time judge Constance Briscoe, who was jailed for 16 months for lying to police, has been removed from the judiciary". In Commonwealth usage, "judiciary" usually refers to the body of judges, not to the judicial system. In this particular case, for example, that's what's meant. "Removed from the judiciary" means that the judge was stripped of her post as a judge. This usage does not really exist in American English, which is why it is somewhat of an ENGVAR issue, and also why said ambiguity exists. RGloucester — ☎ 14:52, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
