Nature Springer sources on police unions globally

edit

Article should reflect not just US police unions, but globally. I need a WikiLibrary pass to access content here; https://link.springer.com/referenceworkentry/10.1007%2F978-1-4614-5690-2_463 Shushugah (talk) 16:39, 10 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

proposed "Police unions in the United States"

edit

Hi @Shushugah: and @Calliopejen1: -- there is still a good deal more to say about police unions in the U.S., and it seems reasonable to think about creating "Police unions in the United States" as a new separate article. Linked from here, contextualized from this article, of course. Before hauling off and doing such a thing, I wanted your opinions and thoughts. All best! --Lockley (talk) 19:39, 4 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Lockley: I think that would be a great idea! Calliopejen1 (talk) 22:19, 4 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Lockley: Agreed! Be WP:BOLD but thanks for checking in! Are there specific unions you want to cover further in depth? While there are 12,000+ police departments, the overwhelming majority of officers are employed by ~10 departments or so. ~ Shushugah (talk) 22:29, 4 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
Sounds good to me too! We should use summary style and still integrate the most relevant information here while moving details about e.g. indvidual unions to the new article. Regards, HaeB (talk) 22:58, 4 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
Excellent, thank you everybody. @Shushugah:, it seems logical to start with some basic facts, statistical information, etc. for the largest ones, presumably the most powerful. And part of the task is to clarify what seems to be a fairly complicated patchwork of union affiliations. Step at a time, let's see where it goes, feedback welcome. --Lockley (talk) 23:08, 4 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
