Friedensrichter[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Nonsense article, based on a news story that describes a situation in Germany, where Muslims rely a so-called "justice of the peace" who mediate between families.

The news source uses the term in inverted commas to refer to a self-appointed member of the community to highlight that some people in Germany avoid using the legal system. This is utterly misleading because the term " Friendensrichter" is used in some German states as a term for an official lay judge at a court of law, similar to magistrate in England.

Delete. Obviously made up by somebody. It should be replaced by a translation of the proper article at [1]. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:14, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is obviously not a German concept, so if those judges should have an article then under the title as they are known in English. Anyway Qadi exists. Agathoclea (talk) 10:13, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. As pointed out, and further seen from this dab, the term Friedensrichter has traditional uses in certain German-speaking regions. The AfD and its German counterpart, however, is about usage in certain Muslim communities, and both are sourced in total by three news stories, using the term in passing with qualifications "so-called" and "self-designated" or inside quotations.
