The article violates what Wikipedia is not, particularly WP:DICTIONARY Shazbot85^Talk 03:15, 15 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is an article that elaborates the legal concept of complicity, not a definition of the vernacular adjective complicit. Most of the 100+ pages that link to it are other criminal law articles. Not a very good article, to be sure, but a necessary underpinning of these other criminal law articles.

Keep (and Rename) Per Yappy2bhere, it's an established legal doctrine, and the article just needs to be improved (a lot). A title change to something like "Complicity" or "Complicit (legal term)" would probably help, within article naming conventions for this field.

Keep. It's a notable legal concept, per the above. Agree that some cleanup may be in order. UltraExactZZ ^Said~ Did 21:53, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
