Is there a source for this: "The code forbade privileges based on birth, allowed freedom of religion, and specified that government jobs go to the most qualified." I feel like this may just be specifics, and the article in general doesn't do a good job of summarizing what the code was about. This article barely touches what was in it and why it was important; it could use some improvement.slagestee —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.60.240.107 (talk) 04:17, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
The Code Napoleon was codified in 1804. Louisiana became one of the United States in 1803. Precisely speaking, Louisiana was never subject to le code Napoleon; rather, Louisiana law is an amalgam of les cotumes de paris (French law prior to the Code Napoleon) and Las Siete Partidas (the Spanish civil code). This is perhaps one of the greatest misconceptions about Louisiana law. Davisbi (talk) 17:01, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

This is almost certainly a result of translation from fr.wikipedia. This is not a fundamental flaw, as a plethora of secondary sources definitely exists, but they do need to be added.
This is a critically important concept that merits extensive analysis and is foundational to all other articles about the French legal system. The work required to add the secondary sources is more than DUE. For now I am going to focus on documenting the importance of the code Elinruby (talk) 05:30, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
Hello there, in my edit, I was referring to the influence of Maliki Fiqh on the Napoleonic Code. It has been highly underaddressed because of its Islamic roots. Also, I have provided proper citations for that. Napoleon did order the translation of Maliki books into French. I never claimed that the whole Napoleonic Code was based on Maliki Fiqh; I was simply pointing out the influences
One editor has added content purporting to show that the Code Napoleon was heavily influenced by the Maliki school of Islam. The sources were poor (one PhD thesis, a youtube video and and an untranslated article in Turkish. Given that none of the major histories of the Code Napoleon mention such an influence I have removed the new content and have invited the editor to seek consensus for the new material here. This is consistent with the Bold, revert, discuss cycle.
