Cannabis reform at the international level

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The stated topic of this article is "efforts to ease restrictions on cannabis use under international treaties" but the article instead outlines some international agreements and the "reform" element consists of unsourced editorial speculation (e.g. "Nations could withdraw", "The only way to modify cannabis regulations at the international level would be call a conference", "These comments suggest that support from the Board is unlikely in the near future.") In addition, there is some general, US-centric commentary on cannabis law that has nothing do to with International efforts at reform. This appears to be a synthetic topic being used for speculation and as a coat rack. Alexbrn ^{talk|contribs|COI} 10:18, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge any salvageable content to Legality of cannabis and redirect. There is serious problem of duplicate content (and sometimes POV forking) throughout the suite of cannabis articles, making maintenance more of a chore than it need be. Where a broader article exists that could contain the content, it should be used; the "Legality" page allows the article to cover historical and overview aspects, and the title is more neutrally positioned.
