Recreational drug use

 * ... that recreational drug use began at least 200 million years ago among the distant ancestors of modern primates?
 * ALT1:... that the US spends over $50 billion per year on drug enforcement?

5x expanded by Signedzzz (talk). Self nominated at 12:47, 7 September 2014 (UTC).


 * Reviewed Cistern of Aspar. zzz (talk) 17:33, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Nb. The "History" section is completely new. The rest of the article consists mainly of lists, with barely any prose. zzz (talk) 18:08, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol delete vote.svg Sorry, but this isn't eligible. It went from 17,835 prose characters to 23,658. For a five times expansion it would have to be a ridiculous 89,175. Please see WP:DYK for a description of DYK and its rules. If you can make it into a Good Article, you may resubmit it within a week of that designation.

 * Most of the original article was (and still is) lists. But I guess it is a bit too short anyway. zzz (talk) 19:49, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
