[edit]

This article reads like a pamphlet... Does someone have the time to clean it up? 64.231.106.61 (talk) 01:18, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try and clean it up a bit Gk007 (talk) 05:48, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know enough about the GHS to find citations, though. So I'll do some clean up, but if someone else could to the citations that would be great. Gk007 (talk) 06:26, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The intro paragraph claim about the system being years old and 'still not yet ... fully implemented' seems a bit inappropriate to me. You must conceder the context and shear magnitude of the project-- standardizing the worlds chemical labels. While in 2017 the GHS still isn't used on chemicals in every country, it is significantly better than the haphazard system of chemical labeling that existed before it. Sure, there is work to do but considering the size of the task at hand and the advances that have been made, I feel the tone not good and I may change it as part of some article clean up — Preceding unsigned comment added by SCBY (talk • contribs) 02:15, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What kind of ....

[edit]

... English is an "internationally agreed upon system" (other than gobbeldygook)? Maelli (talk) 12:56, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Its a system. its been agreed on internationally. at least it doesnt say "system with coordinated international support, consultation, agreement, implementation and feeback". we cant make it any more plain than this: maybe "The world is up for this program".(mercurywoodrose)50.193.19.66 (talk) 16:51, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ummm...perfectly understandable English? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.15.151.163 (talk) 11:54, 18 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

symbols

[edit]

We should include the suite of major symbols in the article. we have templates here, and svg files from the commons, to choose from.(mercurywoodrose)50.193.19.66 (talk) 16:55, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Handmade sublists

[edit]

In § Hazard classification, under subhead Hazard classes, I've used bullet lists in items 4 & 5 to clarify the subdivisions. But I had to insert bullets by hand, using <br>• rather than wikicode, so that the paragraphs following the subdivisions (but still in the same item) don't break the main numbered list of items.

You may use #* Text in such cases. --Leyo 16:51, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

At least the section (Training) is directly lifted from a commercial website doshti.com --Wuerzele (talk) 10:01, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The sectiion "Testing requirements" is identical to PARAGRAPHS on msdsonline.com. --Wuerzele (talk) 11:03, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Missing quote

[edit]

Where does the quote in the History section come from? I can't find it at the cited source, which is just an infographic. As an aside, UNECE maintains a list of the countries that have adopted the GHS so far. Should the implementation section just be completely redone in alphabetical order, as that document has it? It's pretty long and might warrant having its own separate article at this point (table of countries that have adopted the GHS standard)? Reconrabbit (talk) 18:59, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe rather grouped by region or continent. There is e.g. no need to list all EU member states separately. --Leyo 22:39, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Farming Chemical Cancer

[edit]

Hi,even is more to do in agricultural sector more chemicals they've been added in soil to make it rich but the matter to look at is soil fertilizers that are harmful to humanitarian as well as our poor soil and diseases like cancer and toxic clothing from our manufacturing retailers and the TB that's spreading over time including in our mining sector and our industrial sector as more waste increase as well as pollutions in this environment as a whole .Emissions reduction programmes are highly needed by all of us currently before is too late and we saw all as climate disasters and more humanitarian conflicts crisis taken control after and before pandemic. Net Zero is the key 2028-2055.Lets help each other to change our world now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.113.131.16 (talk) 12:51, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have anything to add to this article about the GHS system of labelling? Reconrabbit 13:58, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
