This article provides little support for the idea that Martin's opposition to animal cruelty should be described in terms of "animal rights activism." I'm quite certain that the name is an anachronism, and in any case it would be helpful to know precisely what Martin's opinions were on the ethics of treatment of animals. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.147.120.49 (talk) 16:40, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Removed the anachronistic and probably not neutral references to rights. He was certainly opposed to animal cruelty. Chiswick Chap (talk) 03:49, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The section "Active Life" devotes almost an entire paragraph to the Great Famine, which occurred a decade after Martin's death. It reveals more about his descendants than about Richard Martin himself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.224.35.72 (talk) 08:39, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
