Logic: The flow of the article makes sense, with the overall concept being addressed before delving into different legal actions taken in response.
Content: While the content is all really good, the legal aspects can be a bit difficult for the casual reader to follow. For example, the sentence "Furthermore, Sheehan's presentation identified that "if a police officer batters himself his ability to conduct an objective investigation of the problem in other cases, decreases", leading to under-enforcement of domestic violence laws, an underutilization of protective measures, and an increased "risk for use of excessive force"." is a bit complicated to understand with a first read. I appreciate all the content and evidence presented, but some of it just might want to be further explained for the benefit of the reader.
Citations: The citations are well placed within the article itself and each adds to the reader's understanding of the topic. Elizab57 (talk) 16:11, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
Article looks good overall, really comprehensive work. I just made a couple of small grammatical changes. I think you are missing a citation at the end of your Domestic Violence Offender Gun Ban section, and I would take a second look at your quotations in the 1994 VAWA and Domestic Violence LAPD sections, I think something is off with them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bjurgens14 (talk • contribs) 18:03, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
US-centric bias
[edit]Currently, this article has a US-centric bias and does not examine this issue in other countries. Research by Waxman refers to a 2015 survey by Alex Roslin sent to police forces in Canada, United Kingdom, France, Australia, South Africa, Bahamas, Ireland, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, in addition to the United States and her research presents some of the results. This topic is also known as "Police Perpetrated Domestic Violence"[1] in the UK and New Zealand.[2] - Cameron Dewe (talk) 21:22, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
Title
[edit]The Wikipedia article about domestic violence is not capitalized and follows the Wikipedia naming conventions concerning capitalization. A number of sources, such as [3], [4], [5], [6] and [7] refer to this topic as "officer-involved domestic violence" in lower case in running text, suggesting the title for this phenomenon is also not a proper name and so should also not be capitalised. The term "police-perpetrated domestic violence" is also used by some sources.[8],[9] Other sources also refer to "Police perpetrated domestic abuse"(PPDA),[10] suggesting that other countries might use slightly different wording to refer to this same phenomenon. However, the initialism "OIDV" is still capitalised. Cameron Dewe (talk) 05:01, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
