+# Africa-7 batch — expansion-2026-10-28-africa-7 (sc)
+
+Focused single-country batch: Africa is comprehensively expanded (Africa-1..6 plus other agents' work) — remaining work scores are residuals (empty decades, imp-1 entries). Libya deferred (1990-law article bleeds into the deliberately-open amendment chain; recent lane activity today). Morocco adjacent to active maajoun culture work (staged files, not mine).

+## sc — committed
+- Linked the three missing articles into the profile (zero history links before, like KY): 1990 Act in possession + sharing, 2023 sentencing in enforcement, Geers 2019 in medical.
+- New `articles/seychelles-misuse-of-drugs-act-1990.md` (R v Francois 2000: in operation 1 July 1995) + `articles/seychelles-kanabis-association-sentencing-2023.md` (Nation: Esparon, sentences excessive, 2020 rules unfit) + `articles/seychelles-geers-medical-rules-appeal-2019.md` (Judiciary 2019 report: order lifted, majority vs dissent).
+- Checked the wiki for a Seychellois Creole term — lede uses standard English; words skipped again.
+- Audit 0/0; page + all three articles verified in review HTML.
+- Left: possession table (no simple-possession numbers; Ah Kong case is trafficking), empty decades, 2 remaining imp-1 entries.
