235:"A weapon, by definition, is any device used to injure, defeat, or destroy living beings, structures, or systems, and Agent Orange did not qualify under that definition." This isn't true as it stands, as Agent Orange evidently destroys living plants, so we must not make the statement in Knowledge (XXG)'s voice. Please attribute it appropriately, e.g. "The U.S. delegation argued that ...".

249:"Rural-to-urban migration rates dramatically increased ........ Saigon slums." Does Luong 2003 specifically attribute this flow to Agent Orange, or simply to the war? We need an actual quotation here, either in the text or in the citation, to cover this. If it's simply to the war, the paragraph is
850:
This is a long-established article on a controversial subject. A substantial effort has been made to provide reliable sources and to cover the main points fairly and evenly. The article is now well cited and appropriate in tone and coverage, which is quite an achievement. Well done all who helped.

Removing that paragraph fixes the question of whether it was OR, but the sociopolitical effects are now not adequately covered (i.e. the article is more unbalanced, and it was already very heavy on the health effects, just as it is very heavy on
Vietnam despite efforts at balance with "Use outside

Yes it could, along with the RAND quote and citation, and Luong 2003, so you are authorised to restore the old material and to extend it. Please be careful to say that bombing and artillery, bulldozing, and Agent Orange spraying, including deliberate spraying of rice paddies, all contributed to

I've had a look for sources, and can't find anything usable. There certainly was rural depopulation, but that was attributed in the sources I found to fighting, including artillery and bombing. I've therefore removed the section. If anyone finds reliable sources in future, they are welcome to

forcing the depopulation of rural
Vietnam, and the resulting surge of people into the cities. It is essentially impossible to separate the effects of these, given that they were essentially all simultaneous, widespread, and of long duration, and Turse wisely discusses them together.

The lead section currently spends 2 of its 3 paragraphs on law, and says nothing about many of the sections of the article (e.g. Use outside
Vietnam, legal and diplomatic proceedings) and almost nothing about Health effects, Ecological and Sociopolitical impact. Please
