About this title when it was a redirect to a video game

Shouldn't this entry be merged with NSF (Deus Ex)? Cnwb 05:01, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I shouldnt think so, believe me there is a lot more that can be added to this article about gray death. I think i'll stub it and flesh it out myself when time premits Walton Simons 14:58, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I just stumbled upon this article in stub sorting; I don't think someone who doesn't know about the game could understand it Lectonar 15:17, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Nominate for deletion. Not notable

The first two citations mistakenly refer to it as a new drug. The fourth tries to have it both ways and describes the variety of known opioid contents, but still calls it a new drug. It is apparently a street name, a nickname for just about any blend of designer opioids. Therefore, it really only belongs as a reference in pre-existing opioid articles. There is no set recipe of ingredients, therefore it doesn't really exists as a separate, distinct thing. Half the citations are uninformed sensational articles. This should be combined with other articles on designer opioids, then deleted as a separate article. Cuvtixo (talk) 15:39, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Name

I removed "It gets its name from its similar appearance to that of concrete mixing powder." despite it being sourced. Presumably the "death" part doesn't come from the appearance of concrete, so we are left with "grey" - "it's called grey because it's grey and something else that it looks like is also grey" seems tortured reasoning to me. Seems more likely "grey from it's colour, and death because it kills people" - in fact so likely I wouldn't even bother to say it in the article.
