Change to anti-vilification laws

[edit]

traditionally such laws in Australia have been referred to as anti-vilification laws rather than Hate speech laws (which is the American Term). They mean the same thing but a change would bring the article into line with the practice within australia — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.19.87.250 (talk) 03:11, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Referencing question

[edit]

As Australia's Criminal Code has no article on Wikipedia, nor does the Criminal Code Act 1995 which created it, the link assigned to the words "Criminal Code" is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_code. I am unsure of the course of action. Should I remove the link, or do something like [[Criminal Code (Australian legislation)|Criminal Code]]?
