Talk:LSD

message: Under "Society and Culture" we have "Modern Distribution."  The section opens with a claim about how LSD is produced, and then cites two sources that are both from >50 years ago.  The section then goes on to speculate on DEA priorities, using citation 188.  Full text of citation 188: "LSD: The Drug." No year, publisher, author, or additional context.
The rest of the section is well-cited, and should be the only text in the section.  It *could* be consolidated into a single paragraph and rewritten but even as-is, it's much more relevant than the first two blurbs. 63.224.248.97 (talk) 17:09, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: Lysergic acid diethylamide →  – Per WP:COMMONNAME and MOS:ACROTITLE: this is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the abbreviation and LSD is the common name for the topic. PhotographyEdits (talk) 15:26, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  Really? I've known it since I was in middle school. In central Africa, of all places, where the drug is practically non-existent.  But well-meaning Western aid workers pushed these "don't do drugs" pamphlets on us, and there was this funky name that was very memorable.  Walrasiad (talk) 04:46, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Biggest problem is that LSD is not an acronym of lysergic acid diethylamide, which would be LAD. Instead of "acid" the common term for the substance is based on the German word. This is confusing. I also find it hard to believe you think more people recognize  than "LSD". —DIYeditor (talk) 18:18, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  I didn't say it was more recognizable. I said it was sufficiently recognizable.  I don't see a reason to resort to acronyms or slang pointlessly.  Walrasiad (talk) 20:34, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: The two previous move-requests, noted above, came to different conclusions, with the last being in 2017. I read both 2014 and 2017 requests carefully, and found a lot of good arguments made there, especially about the LSD redirect. So, the only difference is going to be LSD at the top of the article, instead of the proper chemical name lysergic acid diethylamide. And that's how I concluded the current name not only ain't broke, but that changing it is, in my view, unencyclopedic, despite the policies you cite. Perhaps all the previous participants should be pinged for their current views, so it isn't just a half dozen editors making this decision in, at this moment, a ten day time frame. Cheers.
