==Country articles== Hi, I've been looking over the United Kingdom article that popped up, and have been considering its role, or the role of articles like it, on the wiki. In my view, as we already accept the inclusion of agencies such as the FCC or other legislative/public bodies which have an influence on how consumer protections are defined or enforced, it might be appropriate to have an article titled 'Government of the United kingdom' (and other similar articles, perhaps the US might have federal and state ones) as an article for things about decisions directly taken by the UK govt (e.g. a link to the page for the apple icloud thing, but probably not that one about the guy at the airport as that's more of a civil rights thing than a consumer rights thing). This could potentially act as a hub for other UK government consumer organisations e.g. the CMA, as well as discussing legislation passed and actions taken by the UK government which relate to consumer protection. It would fit in as a tier 2 'entity' article. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this? [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 15:24, 4 March 2025 (UTC) :Articles about legislation in countries are more than welcome, that is also where the [[:Category:Legislation|legislation category]] is for. For now I do not see the need to create country legislation articles, as there are not enough articles to back those up yet. I was quite strict on the creation of the country pages, as they invited a lot of content unrelated to the wiki, so that is why articles on consumer protection agencies and initiatives are much more preferred than generic country articles. But I do get the point of collecting legislation regions are subject to, that is also why I started on creating region categories for legislation.
