Peer Review - Andrew Campbell
[edit]Great job adding to the introduction and creating new sections for relevant information.
You might want to elaborate more on the "Legal Standpoint" section. Maybe provide some context for the U.S. v. Bass case or talk about a little bit about more recent cases (if there are any) that solidified or changed the ruling?
It might also be a good idea to include some facts or statistics in the "Negative Health Effects" sub-section to really substantiate the claims that are made.
Citations are needed in the "Legal Standpoint" section and the second half of the "African-American Communities" sub-section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrewcm123 (talk • contribs) 17:44, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
Peer Review
[edit]Really Great job with the article!
I feel that there was a lot of good information and I like how statistics were included comparing arrest rates. I do believe however, that under the arrests/imprisonment section the article would benefit from more recent data and findings.
I also believe that you should mention the impact that the "war on drugs" has had on immigrants, particularly those coming from Mexico. I believe that this rhetoric was also used to target Mexicans in an attempt to implement stricter border control regulations. I feel that perhaps a subsection discussing this would also be useful in an attempt to fully explore this concept.
Overall, great job! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Allyborghi (talk • contribs) 18:05, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

[edit]Hi, I really enjoyed reading your contributions to a topic I have not heard about. I liked that you added a lot of information to the supporters section because it is important to understand the demographic that is being targeted by this campaign. I was a bit confused by what the "Suggestions" section is addressing. I see that you added information from the AAPF for five immediate policy recommendations, but besides implementing these policies, what is their end-goal? Additionally, what purpose does this serve to the overall movement. It might be repetitive from other sections, but address so that if someone only reads that section, they'll have a clearer idea of their overall goal. Also, I would consider renaming the section to something more related to the content. Even "Recommendations" would be more relevant, in my opinion. Overall, good job on content, just clean up a few things.
