I don't know how to do it, or I would do it, but I suggest that this article needs more biographical information, or a better link than to Catholic Online.12:50, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

What type of 'better' link would you suggest? March 21st, 2008.

I followed the link, which goes to the article on Lutheranism, and there was nothing there to support this claim. I'm not even sure what it means to say Lutherans 'venerate' him, and (say) Anglicans don't. Support please!

I added Peter Claver's birth date according to this link. It should be okay now. --Angeldeb82 (talk) 21:32, 7 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

If someone can be a "Knight of Peter Claver" I suppose this means there is a chivalric order connected to his name? __meco (talk) 10:05, 15 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

It's not a chivalric order in the historical sense. The KoPC is a Catholic fraternal order. [www.kofpc.org]

as much as I love St Peter Claver, is the ferverino at the end appropriate for Wikipedia? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 21:09, 9 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Not at all. I've removed it, as well as scattered bits of unencyclopedic piety scattered throughout the article. carl bunderson (talk) (contributions) 23:31, 9 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

"Dr. Katie Grimes has gone so far as to call Claver an "antiblackness Supremacist" and has accused the Catholic Church of "antiblackness supremacism" for championing him."

But the source linked says nothing of the sort, and "has gone so far as to call" feels like a somewhat unprofessional tone. TheThinkery (talk) 05:29, 1 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your notice. I tried to change the statement in accordance with the source.--Medusahead (talk) 10:23, 1 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
