[edit] Assessment

More than a stub. If you want to expand further, see if you can find out and write why he joined the guerillas, how did he rise to leadership, what did he do before joining, where and when was he born, etc. What platform did he run on in the election? Could use a photo. Also, it puzzled me a bit when you sometimes call him Carlos Pizarro Leongomez, sometimes Carlos Pizarro, sometimes just Pizarro. --AnonEMouse (squeak) 17:04, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, I switched up to try and not sound redundant. I am still trying to understand when there is a middle name, or a extended last name in Latin American use. I will take your advice for the above and thank you for reviewing. --SevenOfDiamonds 17:23, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
There's really no rule as far as I can tell...it either comes with the territory or with usage alone, so to speak. In this case, he's usually known by his (father's) last name, Pizarro. Juancarlos2004 20:22, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
