Most of this article seems to focus on crime against American tourists, which is a quite small proportion of total crime in Kenya. --Delirium (talk) 03:35, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Crime in Kenya/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

I am sorry but I have to fail this article. I do not believe it covers the topic well. Apart from being short, it does not talk about, say, murders or rape. It also does not give adequate crime statistics. Which region is worst? How did the crime rate change over the past decade or two? What about legal system and punishments? Is there capital punishment? The article also seems tourist-oriented... The prose seems somewhat vague and generalized.

It is also based on only three sources... which are not fully cited (suggest using {{cite web}} or similar templates). I applaud for trying to combat systemic bias, but I do not believe this article is close good article standard. Sorry... Renata (talk) 08:26, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
