Well "activism" is "trying to pass legislation" and "advocacy" is "trying to persuade someone that your favorite system is great". I'd be fine with them merging but I'm not sure which is more general. — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]] ([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 01:56, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
:I ''suppose'' "advocacy" is more general, but I suspect a lot of folks who come to this website are looking for ways to change policy. If it's government, then "change policy" means "pass legislation", but if it's a private group or non-profit organization (e.g. [[wikipedia:Debian|Debian]], [[wikipedia:Wikimedia|Wikimedia]], or a home-owners' association or something), is it "[[wikipedia:activism|activism]]" or "[[wikipedia:advocacy|advocacy]]"? -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 04:13, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
