  • Support, as "activist" more generic than (incorrectly lowercased) "peacemaker". David Kernow 12:07, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose, as Tom Fox was part of the Christian Peacemaker Teams, not Christian Activist Teams. --Alojmm 12:37, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support Activist is more generic and neutral to me. "Peacemaker", while in the name of the orgisation, is somewhat POV, as self -titled group names often are. MartinRe 13:38, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Support --Ahc 14:27, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Abstain It was originally (peacemaker) and became (activist) without the necessary level of discussion; this should be used as an opportunity to discuss the merits of the clarification of 'which' Tom Fox the article refers to. However, I would support moving it back if there was some way to indicate that he was more than an activist, like perhaps "(aidworker)". Artsygeek 20:46, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Info box

I added the infobox to the page tonight after it was requested by the folks working on the biography project. There are a couple fields that should be completed if anyone knows the information; I'd also like to see if others have a better value for "occupation". --Ahc 03:26, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
