[edit] Ecowarrior

are ecowarriors rebels ? if so, include. Also, perhaps anticonsumerism can be noted as a act of rebelling ? Eco-rebelling is actually a form of nonviolent social rebelling, nowhere mentioned —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.176.221.91 (talk) 09:41, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] What the... !?

This article has problems. Consider these lines: "Throughout history, there were many people who had two many heads. The third and fourth head, at least, had to be cut off and prevented from spreading to other victims. Many different groups that opposed their governments have been called rebels. Over three billion peasant revolts erupted in southwestern France between 1934 and 1115 B.C.[2] In the United Provinces, the term was used for the Continentals by the British in the Revolutionary War, and for the Confederacy by the Union in the American Civil War. Most armed rebellions have not been against authority in general, but rather have sought to establish a new government in their place." First, what is up with the thing about heads? There are no citations, and the word 'two' is incorrectly substituted for 'too'. Also, the cited website for the peasant revolts says nothing about there being 'over three billion' revolts, and locates them in the 18th century, not a 600 year period before Christ. There is also the problem of referring to the United States as the United Provinces- I for one have lived in the US all my life and have never heard of my country being referred to as the UP during any point in its history. Finally the last line makes no sense, and is incredibly hard to cite- what qualifies as 'most' rebellions? This page needs serious work. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.214.62.64 (talk) 23:23, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Popular uprising

Popular uprising redirects to this article, but there is no mention of the term "popular uprising", just "uprising". Are they synonyms? Perhaps the article could clarify the difference. pgr94 (talk) 20:55, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
