One or more portions of this article duplicated other source(s). The material was copied from these URLs: http://www.bulacan.gov.ph/baliuag/history.php and http://isshin-chan.tabulas.com/content/pages/@29510/ Infringing material has been rewritten or removed and must not be restored, unless it is duly released under a license compatible with GFDL. (For more information, please see "using copyrighted works from others" if you are not the copyright holder of this material, or "donating copyrighted materials" if you are.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. Contributors may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with these policies. Thank you. -- Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:02, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Moved to Baliuag. Let me explain: there is a consensus that WP:MOSPHIL is outdated for municipality naming and that the name is unique. On the other hand, there is no consensus whether it should rest at Baliuag or Baliwag. Both names are reasonably demonstrated to be in common circulation, and it makes sense to keep the current title as consistent with the article text, infobox and map. (See WP:NOGOODOPTIONS for policy background). No such user ( talk) 10:03, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
Baliuag, Bulacan → ? – The official spelling of this municipality (and soon to be city) is Baliwag as indicated on its official website -
https://www.baliwag.gov.ph/. The seal used on article is also outdated, and contains the former official spelling. The current seal is largely different from the seal being depicted on the article. Using Facebook search results (
https://facebook.com/search/top/?q=Baliwag), it will yield substantial results in posts and results of pages which includes the official Facebook account of its public information office (
https://facebook.com/BaliwagPIO). I will post two suggestions at the discussion box.

Wikipedia's policy on article titles.My two suggestions are — Baliwag, Bulacan or Baliwag. The de jure title according to WP:MOSPHIL should be Baliwag, Bulacan, but per recent municipality AT discussions this is no longer being followed, favoring the global <cityname> only approach for most settlements around the world bearing unique names (like Baliwag), except of course the United States MOS. Seems that someone should revise the MOSPHIL (and also the section at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names)#Philippines), to reflect the majority, de facto consensus at Talk:Cagdianao and Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Philippine-related articles#Revisiting the comma convention for article titles of municipalities.

The Province of Bulacan, lying on the northeastern side of Manila Bay, consists of territory in central Luzon, and comprises the following municipalities: Angat, Baliuag, Bigaa, Bocaue, Bulacan, Bustos, Calumpit, Guiguinto, Hagonoy, Malolos (the capital of the province), Marilao, Meycauayan, Norzagaray, Obando, Paombong,[Quingua], Plaridel, Polo, Pulilan, San Ildefonso, San Jose del Monte, San Miguel, San Rafael, and Santa Maria.
- it seems to contradict somehow the ordinance of the province of Bulacan stating the spelling of Bulakan, Bulacan, but at least ot has some official standing, unlike the spelling constantly used by the municipal government of Baliuag. JWilz12345 ( Talk| Contrib's.) 15:39, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
The poll for the people to decide if they will be a city or not will be on January 2023 (Formerly December 2022). Hope you understand.
