This definition and the associated cateogory need to be refined to better assist the placement of the associated category Category:Humanitarian. It should not be so broad as to include everyone who does an act of good (Jonas Salk? Antoine de Saint-Exupéry?), nor in my opinion should it include academics and philosophers. Would like some clarification on the distinction between humanitarian and humanist. --Mmx1 15:11, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
The list of people is very, very, POV. Che Guevera?? I suggest removing the lists all together, and putting in a few (like 2 or 3) examples which can't be seriously questioned, e.g. maybe Albert Schweizer. Rocksong 08:00, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
Errhrrmhumahem. I agree, the list is too POV. If there is any list, it should be people who have helped define or promote the idea of humanitarianism. Chira 05:30, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
I also agree (to put it mildly). this article needs 1) a clear sense of the history of humanitarianism and 2) a complete revision of the philosophical and political underpinning (how, for example, is humanitarianism--which clearly relies on a relationship between benefactors and suffering others--the antithesis of "us vs. them"?) -- Junius49 12 January 2007

Sexism, and more
Shouldn't there be something in this about opposing sexism and something about the rights of all great apes? And the cannibalism can be removed, that part is preposterous, everyone opposes that. People who are/were definitely humanitarian are Einstein, Richard Dawkins and Isaac Asimov. Feyre 20:51, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Humanitarianism
Feyre, I think you are confusing Humanitarianism with Humanism. They were humanists. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChrisPB (talk • contribs) 00:14, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
