This article is currently put under an Useful Notes index (UsefulNotes.Britain) but is still in the Main namespace.

Furthermore, while the original intention of the article was about British drug classifications, half of the article as it still stands is about US drug scheduling. I can't think of exactly what do do with that, but the options I can think out of include:

  • Cutting this article, or merging it with an appropriate Useful Note, if there is; or
  • Extend this article's geographical scope (using Wikipedia terms) to include drug classification in different countries.

This article should be a general UN page.

I thought this was about classes about drugs from the title alone.

It says they are mentioned in crime dramas, but it does seem like a Useful Note. I don't really think this is a trope.

Move to proper UN namespace and make the soft split between countries a bit more clear?

Namespace and expand scope.

Edit PS: Namespacing is a free action, so I just created UsefulNotes.Drug Classes and put Main.Drug Classes on the cutlist.

Same. It's not the point of this thread, but I think the name would be clearer as Drug Classifications.

Classifications sounds better. Classes sounds like "Drugs are bad, m'kay?"

What is the normal term?

Searching "drug class" gives me educational classes for "drug class" (exact words) and categories for "drug classifications"

I'd vote for "classification" over "classes", to make it clear we're talking about types of drugs, not drug education.
