Articles with input to be checked are categorised in Category:Drugs with non-standard legal status (3,209). See also the category TOC.

Articles with unrecognised |legal_XX= sorted under their country letter.

Articles with |..._comment= only sorted under *

Articles with |legal_status= having recognised input (like: Rx only) are sorted under " "(space, in top).

Maintenance tasks

Listed (blank): |legal status= has regular text input.
Listed *: |legal status= has "Rx only" or "OTC". Output is edited. 'Rx-only' or 'OTC' is a very general statement. Maybe the input could be more precise (see {{Infobox drug}} documentation).

For all countries and institutes listed here: |legal_XX= should have a valid code from the listed options only. All descriptive text should be added in |legal_XX_comment=. If this causes a problem, please report at this talkpage.
