Review
(criteria)
  •  Oppose Scope should be "Muhammad Ali", not "Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr." Ali is the name he chose to use, it is the name by which he is best known, and it was the name in use at the time of this photograph. cmadler (talk) 16:46, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm partly agree. What about a scope name «Muhammad Ali (Cassius Clay)»? After all he obtained popularity under the name of Cassius Clay. This is the name when he won the Olympic Gold Medal in 1960. The last generations know him as Muhammad Ali but the older people knew him mostly as Cassius Clay. (I remember that about 30 years ago my grandfather told stories about him using only the name Cassius Clay).--MrPanyGoff 17:11, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Scope changed from Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr. (Muhammad Ali) to Muhammad Ali (Cassius Clay) --MrPanyGoff 23:18, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
