There's two completely separate articles in here -- one sociolinguistic, the other legal. AnonMoos 16:29, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I split the articles into "Speech Code" and "Speech Code Theory". -- 17:40, 10 November 2006 User:ReedieJR

It should be noted that Matthew Duffie is a huge fan of Speech Code. To such a point that he considers it a way of life... - Um, ya.... that's gone --VTEX 18:09, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Extremely vague statement

'There were approximately 645 hate speech codes in place at U.S. colleges and universities in 1990; by 1991, the number grew to over 300' - That is extremely vague. So there were 645 speech codes, and the year later there were 'over 300'. Typo? Maybe it must be 3000? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.89.167.177 (talk) 16:43, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]


75 was erroneously 645 as per http://www.scu.edu/ethics/publications/iie/v5n2/codes.html --Eliezerlp (talk) 10:23, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality

The line "Today, most talk of speech codes is within institutional contexts and refer to colleges and refers to official lists and rules established by authorities, where speech codes are occasionally used by colleges and universities as a bludgeon to suppress speech that others find offensive." is, without a doubt, not written from a neutral point of view and therefore is not encyclopedic. Therefore I added the neutrality tag and would like to foster a discussion on how this could be rewritten. Spiral5800 (talk) 11:54, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
