Prison Population

[edit]

The numbers for Texas prison population are old -- California passed Texas several years ago. Will research and update. ClaudeMuncey (talk) 22:10, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The number of Texas prisoners is 155,000 and counting.[1]The California Department of Corrections is 165,000 according to their website.[2] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cheald10 (talk • contribs) 22:34, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have a link to the Directory, where Huntsville Prison Ministries are listed. These ministries are making a big difference in inmate's lives. How do I list it not to violate all the rules? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Prisonministry (talk • contribs) 21:03, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately you probably can't list it. WP:EL says to not have too many external links. We should have maybe two (TDCJ profile and the Handbook entry) WhisperToMe (talk) 21:25, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Huntsville "Walls" Unit [3]Cheald10 (talk) 20:33, 5 November 2008 (UTC) TDCJ Unit Directory list the Mountain View Unit as housing Death Row http://tdcj.state.tx.us/stat/unitdirectory/mv.htm 168.51.179.4 (talk) 21:28, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, yes, Mountain View has the female death row - Polunsky has the male death row. WhisperToMe (talk) 21:24, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure where this goes.

[edit]

I spent some time in "The Walls". One thing that nobody has mentioned....The guards don't go into, and are rarely present. It's actually run by inmates. Intake, release and work details are all taken care of internally. 2600:1702:1DB0:33C0:F95D:6312:B122:25DC (talk) 18:45, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@2600:1702:1DB0:33C0:F95D:6312:B122:25DC: Hi! Unless the information is in a printed book, magazine, journal article, newspaper article, etc. it cannot go in a Wikipedia article. (see Wikipedia:Original research). If some journalist made this observation and put it in an article, that article can be cited. WhisperToMe (talk) 08:29, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lists of prisoners

[edit]

I think that adding prisoners who were only incarcerated in Huntsville Unit on the days of their executions (as opposed to be on death row in Huntsville, which hasn't happened since 1965) would be redundant from a list of prisoners in Texas executed since 1928. The Huntsville prisoner list should only have people who were non-DR prisoners, or DR prisoners from 1928 to 1965.

I removed all of the post-1965 DR prisoners to keep the list tidy. WhisperToMe (talk) 08:30, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
