Change "Alaya" to "Ayala" under 'Growing success: 1966–1967' heading, second paragraph, third sentence, and add hyperlink to that wikipedia article; "https://en.wikipedia.org/Plan_of_Ayala". Agsilver98 (talk) 15:30, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Hyperlinks

All locations listed in the article appear to have hyperlinks attached to them except "California" and "Los Angeles", every city/place except these two. This isn't fair and makes it seem that someone is striking out at these locations by not attaching hyperlinks when every other destination/locale has a hyperlink. In the name of fairness and un-biasedness, put the locations "Los Angeles" and "California" in hyperlinks too. It seems suspicious that they were somehow forgotten to be hyperlinked. They are locations too and deserve the same fair treatment as other places listed in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8801:1A83:5E00:F56D:414E:2486:F089 (talk) 05:26, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Change the word "schisms" to "dissension" due to unusual wording. 2601:1C0:6781:5670:F4AB:9455:9154:DBA7 (talk) 13:50, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

 Not done: The use of the word "schism" implies division, break or splitting, which is different from "dissent" (which does not explicitly imply division). Given the texts are describing divisions with the movements founded by Chavez, it is appropriate. Goldsztajn (talk) 22:14, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

speaking English

Given that Spanish was forbidden at Laguna Dam School in 1933 when Cesario was six, by 1942 when he was 15 would Cesar have been basically fluent in English at that point? WakandaQT (talk) 14:18, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Change "was an American socialist, labor leader, community organizer, businessman, and Latino American civil rights activist." to "was an American labor leader, community organizer, businessman, and Latino American civil rights activist." whoever originally changed it to say he's a socialist did so for political reasons to mislead people into believing that Joe biden added the bust of a "socialist" to the White house.

Is "leftist" considered a politically-charged term? If so, possibly consider changing occurrences of "leftist" to a more neutral term - maybe Left-wing (which is the term used by the article that "leftist politics" links to) or similar? DubiousPedantry (talk) 03:03, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

The picture of Gandhi should be removed

He never met Gandhi, but was simply influenced by him. Adding a picture of Gandhi in response to that is 'children's booking' this section on a very important leader and organizer. He was influenced only to the extent of the few books he read on him. Gandhi's picture should not precedence over any other possible major influence here, starting with family and ending with Ross and the Father, the actual examples of influences that directly affected him, not this six parts of Kevin Bacon madness people use to show familiar people they like nonsense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.56.178.153 (talk) 05:35, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Political Views Section includes a Blatant Massaging of History to Fit a Modern Narrative

"His point in doing so was not necessarily to proselytise, but to use the socio-political potential of Christianity for his own campaigns"

This is completely non-sense. I understand some 'educated person' wrote it in a book, but it is still a conclusory opinion that does not bear on actual facts. This person completely separates the Roman-Cath Chavez from his roots to push a modern political narrative. Just because Chavez didn't explicitly say it, doesn't mean you can then decide what he actually meant. If this is true, Ancient Aliens is now 100% facts. 'Well, the Egyptians never said that Aliens did not build the pyramids, so it is a pretty likely possibility, who cares about the most likely senario when a narrative must be pushed.

This article should be moved to "César Chávez"

Lead

The entire part that says, "A controversial figure, UFW critics raised concerns about Chavez's autocratic control of the union, the purges of those he deemed disloyal, and the personality cult built around him, while farm-owners considered him a communist subversive." Is pure opinion with NO CITATION and should be removed. ---- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Suepera (talkcontribs) 16:23, January 13, 2022 (UTC)

@Suepera:, please read WP:LEADCITE, which says that things in the lead of an article generally don't need to be cited, as long as they are cited in the article body. Claims about autocratic control and purges are included in Cesar Chavez#On organization and leadership and are properly sourced there. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:31, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

In section "Childhood: 1927–1945" there is problematic wording in the second sentence: "a Mexican who had crossed into Texas in 1898." Use of the term "a Mexican" without a word after "Mexican" is considered racist by Mexican/Mexican American people. The rest of the sentence generally reads that way as well or can be as many are not aware people could and did come and go between the two countries uncontrolled until the Immigration Acts of 1917, 1921, and 1924. https://www.jstor.org/stable/24550692

Use of the "crossed into" phrasing has the connotation that it's entering the country without permission/surreptitiously etc. Suggested re-wording: "who migrated from Mexico to Texas in 1898."

Same with: "Born in Ascensión, Chihuahua, she had crossed into the U.S. with her mother as a baby." Suggested re-wording: "Born in Ascensión, Chihuahua, she migrated to the U.S. with her mother as a baby."

Ghandi

I was wondering why there is a picture of Ghandi. It doesn't seem to directly relate to Chavez, despite having influenced his life.
