Semi-protected edit request on 30 July 2021

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

In the intro of the section 'effects' please add that "There is no risk-free level of secondhand smoke exposure. Even brief exposure can be harmful to health." This is supported by citation no. 133 from the CDC fact sheet Also additional sources are from:

1) US surgeon general:  
2) The EPA: 
3) American Lung Association: 
4) American cancer society: 
5) Australian government Department of health:
6) National Cancer Institute:

Also in the same section's sub-section 'Cancer: General' , please add "Secondhand smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, of which hundreds are toxic and about 70 can cause cancer." source: citation no.133 from CDC: and from the American cancer society:

Thank you! 2409:4042:2E1F:FE5B:9571:54ED:1ED0:DDFD (talk) 18:32, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Second part is done. I don't know if we really need the first sentence; it's not like the article implies otherwise. Leaving request open for another opinion. ◢ Ganbaruby!  (talk) 20:47, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

I find the first sentence about no risk-free level to be helpful information for readers. It looks supported by the sources. I'd probably support adding it. ––𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗗𝘂𝗱𝗲 talk 03:29, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

I can see benefits from both. On one hand the article's 3rd sentence screams that it's dangerous and so adding it may be superfluous. On the other, it can be imperative to clarify that the health detriment of the smoke isn't either "nothing" or "horrible disease". I would lean more so on adding it. If we can reasonably get away with further hammering home that smoking is bad, I think we should take it, and the requested addition is extremely inobtrusive from my point of view. Sirdog9002 (talk) 23:05, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

Note: I'm closing this request while it's under discussion per Remember to change the answered no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:06, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Scene in Runaway Jury

Scene: Lonnie Shaver's fellow jurors request him not to secondhand smoke. Please create "Pop culture" section and mention this. Rizosome (talk) 05:48, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

Not done. WP:FANCRUFT, not important to the subject. ◢ Ganbaruby!  (talk) 20:43, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

Merger proposal

I propose to merge Sidestream smoke into this article because everything that needs to be covered about sidestream smoke is also covered in this article. Needforspeed888 (talk) 20:52, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

This merge seems reasonable to me. AdequateNBAfan (talk) 01:49, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
