Drug prohibition
There is a deleted portion about comparison of alcohol prohibition and drug prohibition. The source I used is some article from CATO Institute, probably a biased source I admit. Anyone knows how to handle it properly? I know that myself has a strong opinion on it, so maybe I need to stay out. Yi Zhe Wu 21:13, 8 July 2007 (CDT)
Image Adjustment
As always... --Robert W King 15:51, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
The fixed image is now the image on the article page. --Robert W King 15:59, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
- Thanks for the modification, but sorry, this time I would not say I like the new image, because it is too light and unclear. But I will think about what to do with it. Regards. Yi Zhe Wu 21:32, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
Title
Another comma-infected article name! There really is no good reason for this. "Prohibition of alcohol in the United States" would be a better title in my view. So, let's change it! I'll change the article name in two weeks time unless anyone objects. –Tom Morris 22:04, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
- I agree with you Tom, but check the history -- this was started, then abandoned a long time ago, when Prof. Jensen and his commas ruled the History Roost. Hayford Peirce 22:54, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
- I think that Prohibition (American) would be fully suitable. With lots of redirects, of course. Hayford Peirce 23:19, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
- Rather Prohibition (United States), I would say... --Peter Schmitt 23:45, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
- I certainly won't argue, Peter, I'm not much of a chauvin. But note that no other countries in North or South America try to call themselves that -- and since it's hard to say "United Statesan" in any language, they frequently call us 'Merkins Norde Americanos....
