This page appears to deal mainly with US law on criminal intention. Could someone please confirm whether this is so and make it clear on the page? Perhaps there ought to be an "Intention in US Law" article (to mirror "Intention in English Law"), leaving this one free to deal with criminal intention in general terms. 152.71.66.243.
"A person intends a consequence they foresee that it will happen if the given series of acts or omissions continue, and desires it to happen." This sentence does not make sense to me. I feel that "they foresee that it will happen" may be somehow out of skew by not starting the sentence with the word "When," as in, "When a person intends a consequence..." later followed by "...consequences, they foresee that it will happen." -- Cyberman ( talk) 09:59, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
Whoever has written oblique intention seems to have instead covered the issue of 'intervening acts' which comes under causation.
The result of the proposal was support for move. I think Anthony Appleyard's suggested modification is a good one, sewing up any ambiguity.-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 02:06, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Intention (criminal) → Intention (law) — Per discussion here. "Xxxx (criminal)" is confusing because there are pages like Larry Davis (criminal). — Jafeluv ( talk) 21:43, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Dolus redirects here directly, but needs disambigution with Dolos (mythology), sometimes also spelled Dolus. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.11.52.223 ( talk) 06:22, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
Why is the title of this article Intention rather than Intent? The term intent is used uniformly throughout the body of the text; the only time intention is used is in reference to a separate article, Intention in English law. ajad ( talk) 23:08, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
It’s unclear which country this applies to 92.237.52.170 ( talk) 17:18, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
