A jalouse a Scots-speaker wad say no pruiven ([prøvn, prIvn. The unhistorical pronunciations, pruvn, after Eng., and provn, after the spelling, are now freq.])[1] tho the chances o comin ower a juidge that speaks Scots isna likely.
"not proven (rarely proved), one of the three verdicts allowed in a criminal trial in Scot., returned when a majority of the jury find that the case against the accused has not been proved beyond reasonable doubt" [2]
Fae this A wad threap no pruiven for the teetle wi ((Scottish) English: Not proven) in brackets ahint it.

Hello 84.135,

Thank ye for reddin up the airticle. Houaniver, A see ye muved the airticle bi "sneddin-an-batterin" the content tae a new page "No pruiven".

Please dinna dae that. Gin ye dae that, the historie an list o reveesions gets tint, or at laest it isna jynt up. (For exemplar, gin A want tae see an auld version o "Not proven" or compare an auld version wi the one o the nou, it's no awfu eith tae dae.)

Uisers wi an accoont can uise the "flit" tag at the top o the airticle tae muve airticles frae ae name tae anither. Gin ye'r shuir ye dinna want tae mak an accoont (it maks things awfu much aesier, we can aye keep track o wha's duin whit whaur, an ye get tae personalise yer ain settins for the Wiki; an gin it's anonymity ye'r wirriet aboot, an accoont gies ye mair anonymity nor an IP address dis), than whit tae dae whan a page is needin muved, is pit a wee jot on the collogue page sayin that, an masel or anither o the registert uisers'll muve it for ye.
