Talk:Epidemiology of binge drinking

Epidemiology?

Since when is binge drinking classified as a disease? It seems rather obvious that it isn't. Even if we accept the designation, this article does not discuss causation in that specific sense. It's more like a poorly researched overview using simplistic data from health authorities, most of which is decades old.--Murky Falls (talk) 04:57, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

American Indians and First Nations

I think the only valuable part of this section is that which links to the Alcohol and Native Americans page, which contains a more nuanced overview of the topic. The opening line is unsourced and stereotypical. The rest states the results of one study and generalizes them to the entire population.

This is also the only section that applies to South America. Consider adding South American section Gabby~Gillis (talk) 17:54, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
