Neutral point of view
Currently the introduction reads "Under common law, to constitute defamation, a claim must generally be false..." This may not be the case under civil law where, at least in Finland, the claim only needs to be insulting. For example, it may be punishable to mention an old crime. Perhaps mentioning this would be appropriate?--91.157.45.151 (talk) 15:40, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
- A couple of paragraphs down from the common law intro, there's a passage on civil law. Perhaps you could add something there. Arllaw (talk) 02:32, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
