Concentration - meaning issues

[edit]

In the lead, does concentration mean the mental awareness of something, or here it means the current embed?

It's confusing, so could someone clear this up?  Batorang (talk) 14:20, 24 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Fixed. Clearly in context it was meant to be one's ability to focus / pay attention, and not the amount/potency of a substance. Thoric (talk) 15:58, 24 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
[edit]

The map (image 22/23) that shows that the entire united states has cocaine use decriminalized and completely legal in Oregon is incorrect, as it's still completely illegal in 49 US states (i.e., not decriminalized) and decriminalized only (not legal) in Oregon. I think the map should therefore be red (for illegal) across the US and yellow (for decriminalized) in Oregon. 152.27.19.253 (talk) 17:13, 7 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Semi-protected edit request on 26 September 2025

[edit]

First sentence of the “Crack cocaine” section is incomplete; it does not state for what purpose cocaine HCl needs to be heated to 197C. Add “in order to be smoked” 80.193.5.39 (talk) 22:17, 26 September 2025 (UTC)Reply

cocaine mummies

[edit]

At least a passing mention should be made of the alleged presence of cocaine in Egyptian mummies. See, e.g., the Wik article on Henut Taui.Kdammers (talk) 04:26, 16 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hep C from money?

[edit]

This has got to be the most fear mongering statement I've ever heard. The source is from cocaine.org which is not a reputable source of information. I feel it should be removed from the statement. Mattman723 13:30, 25 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
