The list of countries ranked for cocaine use is based on outdated sources. For a 2023 list see https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/most-cocaine-use-by-country 24.87.135.94 (talk) 00:08, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Singapore

According to Wikipedia's statistic for Singapore's population and this page, there are a total of 10 people in Singapore who use cocaine. That number seems a little small to me. Might there be another source that could confirm that percentage? Bart133 t c @ How's my driving? 23:41, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

India

How come there's nothing for India? Is there absolutely noone there that uses it or is no info or what? Munci (talk) 17:05, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Taiwan

Now I know this is a UN list but I am sure there is a murder rate somewhere for Taiwan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alex8th1996 (talkcontribs) 19:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Auto Sort?

The chart loads seemingly randomized? Shouldn't it auto-sort by nation or by prevalence? I can't figure how it is sorting on first page load. GreaseballNYC (talk) 17:36, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Totally misleading statistics

This list is totally misleading. The World Drug report source refers to opioid use, and not heroin use. Where is the heroin data sourced from? A quick search online gets you <0.7% for the US in 2016, which seems a lot more reasonable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by J.Dong820 (talkcontribs) 01:43, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Get rid of Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is misplaced on this table. It is a US territory. There’s no more reason to include it than Wash DC, Guam, Am Samoa, N Marianas, or US Virgin Is (none of which are listed). Nor are Australian, Kiwi, or British territories shown. --76.185.184.37 (talk) 15:35, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The data used on this page is very old and should be updated

The European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction publishes yearly reports on drug prevalence. I'll add edit the page with the new information if available for that country. Cdreue (talk) 19:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
