Talk:International Anti-Smoking Treaty to Take Effect Soon

"Tobacco consumption is the single leading preventable cause of death."

According to whom? I don't dispute the statement, but something to back it up would be helpful. It is very important to back all things up on wikinews.

The Jarge Shrubya picture should be removed. It is biased.

Thanks for the comments above. I've added the reference for the above statement (WHO, The world health report 2003). I don't know who Jarge Shrubya is, but it's OK that you removed the picture, which was intended to be an anti-smoking ad and in that sense might be considered biased. --Larry
