+# Triage: Benin 1997, Mongolia 2020 and Namibia 1971/2024 closed as reviewed
+
+Research checked on 26 October 2026. Read `DATA-MAINTENANCE.md` (triage and
+timeline rules), the four entries with their profiles and timelines before
+editing. No web search was needed: all four decisions rest on the entries'
+already-checked sources and the current profiles. Four open triage items
+closed with `unscored` reasons; no scores, profiles or timelines changed.
+
+## What changed
+
+- `benin-drug-law-1997` (1997-07-18, tightening): `unscored` — Law 97-025
+  underpins today's prohibition (profile summary); no user-band change
+  against the 1916-based floor, so the estimate retains the first drop.
+- `mongolia-drug-amendment-2020` (2020-01-10, tightening): `unscored` —
+  organised-group sentencing only; the ordinary non-sale range is unchanged
+  and already in the profile, so no segment moves.
+- `namibia-south-african-act-1971` (1971, tightening): `unscored` — the
+  1971 Act is the prohibition behind today's floor scores (profile summary
+  and possession text); the estimate retains the first drop.
+- `namibia-medical-growing-refused-2024` (2024-06, medical): `unscored` —
+  refusal confirms the existing no-medical-access status; no access change.
+
+Triage now reports BJ, MN and NA at 0 open each (global opens 477→473,
+countries with opens 107→104).
+
+## Validation and tree note
+
+- Chains `bj`, `mn`, `na`: unchanged, 0 flagged steps.
+- `npm run history:test`: 40 pass, 0 fail. `npm run answers:test`: 40
+  pass, 0 fail. Production build: 4,348 pages, complete.
+- Commit stages only the four `unscored` hunks in changes.yaml plus this
+  note, via patch filtering. Foreign work in the shared tree is excluded
+  and preserved.
