Drug use in USA → Drugs in the United States – Relocation of this page to the aforementioned would bring it to a single page where it is better suited. This point has also been noted by other moderators. --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 19:54, 28 June 2015 (UTC) A polarbear with five (talk) 09:35, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment: I agree that the link being directed to a table with deaths per state seems rather narrowsighted. Putting it within its appropriate context would mean a jump in encyclopaedic quality. Best, FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 18:47, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment: 1) The current name violates WP:NOTUSA. 2) Is this about all drugs or only recreational-use drugs or only illegal recreational-use drugs? The proposed title seems too confusing about that. 3) The source name is now just a redirect, and if it is going to be an article, it should have adequate distinctive content. —BarrelProof (talk) 08:45, 27 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose the target is a different article that this article, if you want to delete the target article, then use WP:AFD. If you want to merge articles, then this is procedurally incorrect as this is a move request, and not a merger request. The procedures for mergers are documented at WP:MERGE. In either case, this is the wrong process, so this should be procedurally closed -- 70.51.203.69 (talk) 06:15, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
