Talk:Opium Law

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Name of Article - Opium Law?

The article is about Dutch drug laws. Looks like someone put a lot of time into this, but the article title does not seem quite right. APatcher (talk) 21:04, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Title

Thanks, I did indeed put a lot of work in it, I had to translate all drugs on both lists of the Opium Law from Dutch to English, though I found it worth the effort because there wasn't an English wiki about it yet. When I have some more time to spare, I'll expand the wiki article some more.

The article is titled how it should be though, the section of the Dutch law which covers (almost) all psychotropic drugs is the Opium Wet in Dutch, which translates to Opium Law in English.--Psych0-007 (talk) 23:45, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

• Sorry for not being more specific. I didn't mean your translation was incorrect. I just wanted to address the issue of confusion when it comes to using the title "Opium Law". Several countries have such laws. I was thinking it could be changed to "Dutch Opium Law" or "Opium Law (Dutch)" or something else that would allow the researcher to be able to find this particular Dutch-specific law.
