== "Child right" activist? ==

The text currently refers to Satyarthi as "an Indian child right activist". To me, "child right" sounds awkward. It seems to me the phrase could have been "an Indian children's rights activist". Additionally, the link leads to the Misplaced Pages article entitled "Children's Rights". I know we're supposed to "be bold" and edit as we feel is appropriate, but I don't want to be bold if I'm just plain wrong. ] (]) 00:20, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Nationality of Mother Theresa

"only the second Indian winner of the Nobel Peace Prize after Mother Teresa in 1979" Wasn't she Albanian? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.50.104.124 (talk) 15:13, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

According to Mother Theresa, she was Albanian, but was an Indian citizen from 1948. Davemck (talk) 17:32, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Can this be added to the Work section please?

Hi there

We're trying to help fill out Kailash's profile so there is more information on his work on public sources due to the light thrown on him today because of the Nobel prize. I'd like to add this post but not sure if I'd be allowed to?

During his time as GCE President millions of public engaged in global campaigns for youth and adult literacy, girls’ education, access to quality education and the increase of trained teachers among others during its Global Action Week. In 2010, Kailash led GCE during its successful 1GOAL Education For All campaign, which saw 19 million people worldwide lobby for increased financing and access to quality education, culminating in the announcement of AUS$ 5 billion by the Australian Government at the 1GOAL closing event during the 2010 UN General Assembly, hosted by Kailash on behalf of GCE.

Is this okay? Thanks for your help! (I have also uploaded an image for use on this page.)

"Child right" activist?

The text currently refers to Satyarthi as "an Indian child right activist". To me, "child right" sounds awkward. It seems to me the phrase could have been "an Indian children's rights activist".
