Talk:Prohibition in the United States

Prohibition history

Why is there no article on prohibition? The USA is not the only country to have banned alcohol - indeed many countries and districts have done so. Shouldn't the article be on prohibition generally?203.184.41.226 (talk) 06:40, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

There is. It can be found conveniently at Prohibition. Canterbury Tail talk 12:02, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Since this article deals only with Prohibition in the U.S., should a link to the broader Prohibition article be listed in the "See also" section of this article? Rosalina523 (talk) 19:16, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

There's a link there now. ··gracefool☺ 12:10, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

Citation updates

I added citation templates to references that I could verify if the existing reference did not already have a template. This will make the long list of references more consistent. As needed I also updated existing template citations so they have a consistent format. Several of the citations remain incomplete - so please update those references with the missing information if you can verify them. Rosalina523 (talk) 19:09, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Class distinctions?

I don't think that prohibition can be called "illustrative of class distinctions", simply because it may have been "a law unfairly biased in its administration favoring social elites". Biased administration of laws does not apply only to prohibition. If this is the test of class distinction, most laws could be said to be "illustrative of class distinctions", and thus should be appealed!101.98.209.132 (talk) 23:16, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
