The following pages have been proposed to be merged: Tobacco litigation and Tobacco lobby to Tobacco politics. The rationale is as follows:

As is usual on Wikipedia, important information is being suppressed by interested parties that don't want it to be known. Why does an article on tobacco politics not go into the social engineering addiction of the anti-smoking Nazis and their well-oiled machine? For one thing, I would like to see some reference to the manipulation of data to fit the preconceived "conclusion" that secondhand smoke is harmful, which is the biggest fraud perpetrated on health care consumers since a Los Alamos scientist said that radiation poisoning results in "a pleasant death." How about we try for some real balance in this article? BidingMyTime2 ( talk) 23:23, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 ( talk) 03:57, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Tobacco politics → Tobacco politics in the United States – To reflect scope. Emmette Hernandez Coleman ( talk) 22:51, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
Hello,
I will be working on improving this page over the next few weeks. Here are some ideas I have:
I think the introduction, taxation section, lobby section, and history section can be expanded. It looks like citations need to be added for several points, and the grounds of claims and defenses sections have been marked as needing expansion. I also think a section on e-cigarettes should be included (possibly within lobbying). There could also be a cross-national section to look at other countries as well.

Hi Kmm257!
The article looks very thorough already! Perhaps finding some more recent reviews/sources would provide more up-to-date information about tobacco politics (most recent seems to be 2013). Additionally, some of the information might be re-organized/elaborated upon to make the article flow better (e.g. vary sentence length in "Litigation" or expand upon Sir Richard Doll's study). Some of the terms under "Grounds of claims" have a lot of potential to be further explained, as well (e.g. strict liability). Great work! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eli 17 ( talk • contribs) 05:13, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
