A cup of coffee for you![edit]

You posted on the consumer activism article asking for development suggestions. As you said - "More Coherent Information" is needed. I do not quite understand what is already here myself, nor do I know what should be done, but I think that one way to start could be reconciling the different articles so that they each cover distinct concepts. Consumer organization covers organizations and some international issues, I attempted to develop Consumer movement to include international issues aside from the organizations, consumerism is seems to be the academic concept, and consumer activism is about the issues. All of these mix so much with each other I have trouble imagining how to separate them. What do you think? How should things be? Blue Rasberry (talk) 16:03, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've been struggling to mentally separate the different articles too. Consumer movement, like you say, addresses issues, and as I see it, as kind of the way the notion of activism manifests itself in different ways internationally. Could Consumer activism be about that sort of theory behind activism?Hoovern (talk) 15:39, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
