Weak Support. Pretty good, overall. Some criticisms: The block of cocaine looks like a bar of soap. "Cocaine comes from the leaves of the South America coca plant has been used for over a thousand years." I listened to that repeatedly, and that's what I heard. It's not a sentence, and it's ambiguous. If the suggestion is that cocaine is over 1,000 years old, that's incorrect. According to w:Cocaine, it is the leaves of the coca plant themselves that have been chewed by Andean people for over 1,000 years. The cocaine alkyloid wasn't isolated until 1855. "Cool compress" is mispronounced, with "compress" accented as if it were a verb (2nd syllable accented). I'm also skeptical of his pronunciation of "ibogaine", which I would think would be accented on the first syllable. A more important criticism is that the champion-like imagery for cocaethylene is unfortunate because pictures often get through to people more than spoken words. And this is not the most impressive or professional-looking non-fiction style (we really have to use a silly envelope icon for neurotransmitters sending a "message"?). Overall, all of this translates into weak support, and if there were a "Quality Video" category, I'd say we could make this one and not feature it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:22, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
